haircut






i went into the playroom tonight, to pick up a few things, and saw scissors next to clumps of blonde hair laying all over the floor! panicking, i picked up a few wads, dreading what might be awaiting me in claire's room, and realized it was plastic hair ... from a doll. from an AMERICAN DOLL.
claire decided to give her bitty twin, madelyn, a scalping .. er, haircut. there are 1/4 in. strips of hair on what was once a lovely head of loose, blonde curls.
i suppose it was bound to happen one of these days - either her own hair or a doll. thankfully (?) it was a doll. so madelyn is off tomorrow to the doll hospital where she will have her head replaced. nice. i am feeling the pain!

ohh my..poor madaline. Looks like she had a fight with the weed whacker...and the weed whacker won. hehe. Yes it is a good thing it wasn't Claire's hair...you can't get her head replaced!

lol! Although, I must say, she did a good job (maybe a future career)

And like I said last night, at least it wasn't her hair! I'm just glad I had the solution for ya! We told Gillian about it this morning (actually she overheard me telling my Mom) and then Tim and I both threatened her within an inch of her life which was met with a big "I know!".....she'd better!

I just heard about the Doll Hospital today and was going to tell you but I guess there are others who have had similar problems. Let's not encourage Claire by telling her it looks pretty good. :) Poor Madeline!

Hi Beka,

All the comments are good, but one
was missed. Looking at the pictures, you've become a fantastic photographer! Keep up the good work.

Love you, DAD
