Ok...so I was trying to get Kassie ready a couple of days ago, and she had just gotten out of the bath. I was brushing her hair and trying to pull it back in a ponytail, when I was taught a lesson...four-year old style 101! She said, " No Mom, I want my hair down, with a piece hanging down in front of my face," as she pulled a curl in front of her eyes. When I asked why, I was told, " Because Mom...it's the style!" I could not believe my four year old was giving me lessons. Then, she went into her room, and when she came back out, this was the result. Does this bring back the 80's anyone??? Apparently I have a lot to learn!


Also, my sister took her to Build-A-Bear for her belated birthday present, and she came back with a poster of Corbin Bleu (from High School Musical). She proceded to take it out and search for the Scotch tape. She informed me she needed to hang it on her wall! I'm continually blown away by this little four year old going on seventeen! I think I'm gonna be in a LOT of trouble!

I'm having total flashbacks--Kenedee! So funny...it never ends. I'm still battling her and hear how "Mom, that's just not cute! No one in 1st grade will think THAT'S cute." (even though it's of course WAY cuter :) Okay, your girls are precious. I'm so sorry for the poor little fussy one, and maybe more, for YOU. That is soooo hard! We switched to Nutramigen, too, which did help. But I never found a fix...just one day at a time until they're older (then sassy:). Cache slept with the blowdryer hanging near his crib, on cool. That was the only trick to him sleeping; when awake, fussy. Kenedee, screaming-bloody-murder fussy 20/7. She slept 4 hrs, total. Okay, more flashbacks, gotta switch the subject...anxiety attack!!! Ahhhh! lol, hang in there--luv ya girlie!

When did we get "old"? Your 4 year old is more trendy than we are now. Ha ha.
I guess that is just the way it goes. Reagan's wardrobe is way more cute than mine is these days, and I am sure it is the same for you with your girls.

Also, don't know what to say about the fussiness. Reagan cries from 7 to 9 PM each night. I have been reading Healthy Sleep Habits, Happy Child (recommended to me by several friends), and I am hoping that Reagan gets over her fussiness soon. My comment may not heolp, but at least you know you aren't alone!
