Hooray for Headbands!

When I found out we were having a girl, I was giddy with excitement thinking of all the cute ribbons, flower bands and barrettes she would wear in her hair. However, Berlin had other plans. From the get-go she really HATED anything that was around her head. Barettes she would tolerate, but all the cute headbands she hated! It was a sad day when I had to resign myself to her never wearing them.

Yet, the other day I was putting her too-small clothes away and came across some of her headbands and tempted fate by putting them on her head. She freaked out at first trying to get it off, but after putting it back on a couple times and telling her "Don't touch," then quickly distracting her, she actually left it on. I was so happy to see it last most of the day. All I can say is that I can't wait to make some more.

Here she is going about her day with the cutest little flower band.
