I am blessed beyond measure to have a little girl.  I'm not really sure I understand any woman who doesn't want a daughter.  I get the fears of dressing them, make-up, mood swings, and boys, but uh-duh, boys come with challenges too, AND DIRTY ones.  I also feel blessed to have a daughter with a head full of hair.  While doing Lilah's hair is occasionally a painful task, I do enjoy it.  I think part of the "hassle" stems from truly NOT KNOWING how to do my own hair, much less, someone else's hair.  I am a bit envious that I am able to put Lilah's hair in different hair styles, yet I cannot manage to do my own.  I am still learning.  I am not sure I will ever be GREAT at it, but for now, I think I am handling it well.  I pinned this hair pin a few weeks back.  It really caught my attention.  I was a little hesitant to give it a try, before school, since we are on a time crunch, but then I decided, "What the heck!?!?!"  Lilah was very patient and in my biased opinion she looked VERY adorable when I was done.  I am sure my dear friend Jody would be able to do this pin even better, but I was satisfied with the results I produced.  Here is day 6, challenge #6.
What do you think?  BE HONEST!

| Bed head.  Before hair do. |

| After getting her "hair did." | 
|  | 
| Not as smooth as the little girl's hair in the pin, But Lilah also has insanely thick hair.
 I wasn't in the mood to use hair glue... seriously, I own some.

As you can see from the second to the last picture,
I almost just stuck with two ribbons in her hair.
BUT... then I got bow happy.  Whoops.
That might be where I went wrong.
In the beginning when I started this Pinterest challenge, I wasn't sure how many days I would accomplish.  It's fairly addicting once you get started.  I will attempt to complete 10 pins like my bff Ashely.  If I accomplish that, great, if not, I hope you have enjoyed the ones I have accomplished.  AND... I challenge you to put your pinning to USE.  
 
Super cute! I like the blue elastics and the last one with all of the bows.
