Pig tails, crafts, and a photo collage

I'm having some issues with Logan's hair lately. It's growing a lot in some places and not so much in others. She's definately sporting a mullet. I tried to put it in pigtails for a new look. Doesn't quite work yet:


She was a good sport.

Looks kinda cute from the back! :)

Had to throw in a new pic of the boys:

So handsome!

And another of Logan, wearing her OU cheerleader uniform, standing in front of the Christmas tree and sucking on a pen. It's one of her favorite things to do lately. She loves markers, pens, pencils, anything she can mark with. Grandma and Grandpa Bratcher got her an aquadoodle which she can "draw" on with water. It's a big hit! Logan is my active, stubborn, determined, funny, climbing on EVERYTHING child! She has such a big personality! She loves to dance and twirl around in circles until she can't stand up and she loves to hear music! She gives hugs and sloppy wet kisses and she loves her mama! She says "more" to just about everything. She also says "nonono" and points her finger (mostly to the dogs), "uh-oh" (that's my favorite), "bye-bye", "hello", and over Thanksgiving she fell in love with my brother-in-law's cat and said "Hi kitty" over and over again! She climbs onto the chairs, barstools, tables, up the stairs, etc. Jason and I have discussed lowering our health insurance deductible b/c I'm quite sure that we're gonna end up in the ER with her multiple times. She loves shoes and accesories! She turns a lot of her toys into bracelets and insists on wearing shoes at all times. She also loves to turn things on and off, put lids on things, open and close things, etc. I guess that's the engineer in her. Right now her favorite fruit is blueberries and the ONLY vegetable she'll eat is green beans. Believe me, I've tried everything. She also loves pasta and cheese-a girl after my own heart! She loves to read, read, read! She gives great high 5's and claps at everything. She doesn't love to share-we're working on that. She's a happy girl and she makes me a happy mama!

I've done some crafting since I last posted and wanted to share them here. I made the Nonna Wreath which I fell in love with on the Jones Design Co blog. I didn't take pics of the process, but here's the finished product. It's just a bunch of folded up fabric that is hotglued to a styrofoam wreath.

Pretty, huh?

I love it and will definately use it all year round!

I also found this old chair at goodwill for $7.99. It needed a face lift.

I took the seat off and recovered it.

Then I (or maybe Jason) spray painted it a pistachio green color.


The finished product is a little mintier than I wanted, but I'm gonna live with it for a while.

I also put up a photo collage on the wall across from the kitchen. The goal is to wallpaper this wall soon with a neutral damask print and then put the collage on top of that.


The end! :)
