Curls

 One of our new adventures for recital this year was figuring out how to get both girls' hair put up. Last year Rachel's hair was not long enough to put up all the way but this year she had a bow that had to go in her hair while it was up. As you know, Rachel has very very straight hair so we tried several different ways of putting her hair up. First, I tried the curling iron. She was very patient and did well but I knew there was no way we could take an hour with the curling iron right before recital.

 I happened to remember the sponge rollers I used as a little girl. My hair has gotten curlier as I have gotten older and my mom used to use these on my hair on Saturday nights before church on Sunday. So we decided to give them a try. Of course, Bekah's hair is a little curlier so I didn't roll hers at first. Guess who was not ok with that. If Rachel does it, Bekah wants to try it too. So I rolled Bekah's hair up too and she went to sleep on the rollers without any trouble.

And we have Curls! Rebekah's hair was slightly curlier but Rachel's curled so well. I was so surprised at how much her hair really did curl. They both looked beautiful and I can't believe my babies are old enough to curl their hair and put it up. They are both growing up so fast!
