Combing Hair



Almost every time I comb the girls' hair, they SCREAM and cry in pain.  I feel SO bad, but there is nothing I can do.  I try to be as gentle as I can, but they still scream and cry.  I've tried detangling spray and it doesn't help AT ALL.  I get SO sick of listening to them scream every time, but what am I going to do?  I can't just leave their hair all tangled.  I suppose I could cut it super short, but I can't stand the look, and they don't want it that way either.  ONE DAY, one GLORIOUS day that seems eons and eons from now, they will FINALLY be able to comb their own hair and/or it won't hurt so gosh darn much.  They kind of can now, but they can't get out all the tangles.  I'm so frustrated and fed up.  It is literal torture for all of us.

Transfer Anniversary

Today is the 5-year anniversary of my embryo transfer!  5 years ago today I became pregnant with my girls (I wrote about it in more detail a few years ago).  It was a Saturday that year, also. Olivia and Kayley at 3 days post conception (wish I knew which one was which): And Olivia and Kayley 5 years later: That photo is actually a few weeks old.  I tried to take one for today and this is what I ended up with: {Sigh}

The Girls' Room

So it's kids' rooms this week at Kelly's Korner Home Tours.  Unfortunately, we haven't finished the girls' room make-over.  We recently transitioned from toddler beds to twins.  I would have loved to get bunk beds to save space, but the twin beds were given to us by friends of Paul's parents so we're making do.  They were wood-colored (oak, maybe?) so we painted them white.  It was challenging to figure out how to arrange their furniture because of the alcove/nook thingie on one side.  I couldn't do the obvious two beds perpedicular to the wall with a nightstand in between configuration, so I had to compromise. There are lots of finishing touches still to be done.  We need to replace their dresser, get a nightstand, put up a shelf (ledge) or two and some wall art, and curtains.  We're also going to paint.  I've had my heart set on purple for a long time, which is why I chose this bedding with some purple but not too much, but now...
