I love your PTR so far! Had to subscribe. You have a beautiful family. I have a little princess, too. She's almost 16-months-old (an only child). We are taking her to WDW for the third time this October. I just started a PTR for it, too! Can't wait to read more from you!

I'm subscribing to yours too I can't seem to sleep very well knowing that we could possibly go to Disney. IF all goes well with my wife's stuff (I'll explain that later) we could take that money and go to Disney. And if we have enough we'll stay on property. I've only stayed on property once and so I don't know any different really.

I can't wait to read and see more.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed that you do get to go & that your wife is ok.


I will be posting an update either later on tonight or tomorrow. Today has been one heck of a day!

Oh I love Target! She carries her June with her everywhere she goes. I can't wait til we are past the headband bow stage & I can put clippies in her hair instead!

I LOVE Target, too!! I am there WAY too much!! I know what you mean--my girls were the same way--it took forever to get hair. However, in that pic you posted it looks like she has some on top!! I put grippers in all of the smaller bows I make for those with little hair and it really helps to keep the bow in place!! All I do is cut strips of Latex-free bumpy shelf liner and glue it on the clip!! You should SOOOOO try it!!! Check out this pic of Claire on her 1st birthday--notice the lack of hair but the bow is staying in!!

She does have SOME hair, but nothing will stay! After 2 boys, I'm so ready for the girly stuff! Where do you find the bumpy shelf liner?

Here is one of Shelby where you can see her hair, that I just love

OMG, I'm so going get this like tomorrow! I wish I knew how to make all the cute clippies. All I have are the one bought at walmart. My mom was the creative one & now she's Shelby's guardian angel.

Let me know how it works for you!! You're going to want to hot glue the strips onto the clips!! Here is a good visual!!

Oh I sure will! Thanks for the tip! I have one bow that will stay in her hair, the ribbon covers it & it's grosgrain (sp?)

As you can see in these pics:

Oh my word!! That is precious!!! If that bow stays in any bow that you glue the gripper into will stay in!! Yes, I only use grosgrain ribbon on the bows I make--it keeps its shape nicely!!

Here are the actual pics of the bow
front

back, but blurry

back opened

I just don't have the creativity on how to make them. A friend of mine said she would charge me $10 a clippie. I know I'm new to the girlie stuff, but I think that is a bit high, do you?

You will notice I mention her ALOT, even though I have 2 boys. Not that I love them any less (which I have been accused of more than once), but she's my Princess, my baby. The girl I never thought I would have. So before I started getting "You say you have boys, why don't you mention them?" comments, I was wondering, should I do a background on Shelby that way you will all get an idea on how much she really does mean to me? Just curious.
