Day 24

Bow Bun

I found this tutorial on Pinterest this morning, and thought I'd give it a shot!

My hair is quite a bit shorter than the model's, so I have a lot more fly-aways, but it was super easy, and pretty cute!

Portia says I look like Minnie Mouse.

thank you, frat boys!

Who has 2 thumbs and got wolf-whistled at when she walked into Walmart tonight?

THIS GIRL!!

Day 23

Side Bun

Pretty much the same as a side pony, but twisted into a bun.

Day 22

Peasant Updo

This one is kinda tricky. I backcombed the crown, and twisted the sides down and back. Then I pulled them into low pony. Then I made the pony into a bun and pinned. 

The tricky part is getting the sides to twist evenly, and it always takes me several tries.

Day 21

Knotted Headband

I used to do this hairstyle at least once a week in middle school. I thought I was sooooo cool. 

I didn't know how to explain this one to you, so I made a video!

Pocahontas was really excited about her new look.

Day 20

Braid Bun

This looks way fancier than it is.

I did a simple braid down the back, and tied it. Then I wrapped the braid up on itself and pinned away.

You can make it even fancier looking by doing a more complex braid, like a fishtail.

These pics were taken post-zoo, so excuse the fuzzy hairs. 

the Zoo

Ready for a picture overload?

Today we went to the zoo!

The OKC Zoo had an awesome children's area, with a splash pad, and it's the highlight of our trip. The girls LOVE it!

Look at that cheeser grin.

Margot has started standing up by herself the last week or so. I predict walking to be next.

Playing house

Margot is not amused.

The sea lions were really fun today, they were swimming right up to the window and flipping around, it was awesome!

 It was the first time Portia wasn't afraid of them.

Here's a couple of cheeser grins for ya. She's a pro.

Portia was really concerned about this picture of the tiger eating the deer.

 Margot was more interested in the real cat.

 Poor guy was tuckered out.

Apparently, so was Margot. At this moment, I figured it was time to head out.

The girls were really lively on the drive home.

The zoo is fun.
