Lydia had the most beautiful curly dark hair when she was born. Brent and I were totally shocked, especially since we are both blonde! She came out looking like a cute little eskimo baby! We loved her curls and I loved doing her hair! All I had to do is get it wet and it would go curly. I didn't want to put any hats or bows on her because it covered her hair. I even put a silk blanket under her so she wouldn't rub any off in the back, and it worked!
Unfortunatley, Lydia started rubbing her hair off with her arm on one side of her head, and then she had cradle cap. I scrubbed her head, and cried when I saw all of her hair in the sponge! She just kept losing it until she was completely bald in spots, and her hair line had receded. So then I started putting all of the big bows and flowers in her hair!
I was so excited when Lydia's hair finally started growing in, but of course it is coming in BLONDE! Then there was the problem of having a couple REALLY long hairs, and mostly short. So I cut it mostly even (in the back she still has her darker curly hair and I can't make myself cut it, even though it is totally blonde on top!)
We are so excited that Lydia's hair is finally growing in thicker! She definitely has her daddy's hair line now! We love her no matter what her hair looks like, of course! I miss the curls, but still have fun putting bows in her hair!

I cannot believe how cute she is! And changing so much! I would be missing those cute curls too. But she is still as adorable as ever and that smile is killer.
Seriously seriously, love your child.
