A win for Mama today...
After much persuasion, pleading and eventual ninja-like manouvres, I finally managed to whip that permanent birds-nest-of-a-hairdo in to a ponytail!
Not a milestone granted, but given her utter disgust for having her hair brushed and total fear of hairbands, this was a major accomplishment for me.
You can still see a single tear resting on her cheek from the ordeal, even though she sat admiring herself in the mirror a solid 10 minutes afterward.
She has already asked me for another ponytail tomorrow.

All of a sudden she has developed a fear of slippery slides - only baby sized ones will do for now.
She has no problem climbing up ladders or furniture or just about anything she knows she shouldn't - think it must be that she is in control when climbing at her own pace, the free-fall of the slide just doesn't sit right with her.
Must be the Virgo in her?

In a week when I didn't pull the camera out often, this was a moment I just had to capture. Although poor image quality, it still makes me smile - spying on her while she performs with gusto for her reflection in the mirror.
