First Attempt...

At french braiding Makenna's hair. She is three and a half and a lot of kids have hair down to their butts by now but hers is still pretty short. It's partly because she was bald for so long as a baby and partly because it's so curly. It's also really fine but I thought it would be fun to try while we were watching conference. I learned how to french braid while practicing on my cousin's hair many years ago while we watched conference. I knew that I would only be able to do the front of her hair and it was still pretty difficult to do that but I think it turned out pretty cute.

Good job Momma! She looks adorable ;). Gotta love how curly hair takes ALL the length away. It cracks me up how curly our girls are! Meant to be, I guess.

I love the braids!! She has the prettiest curls. I wonder if Jordyn is going to get them too.

What a beautiful little doll! I love those curls, too! Good job on the braids---I never could do that. Hope Jordyn will continue to get curls, too. What a blessing!

With Gianna, Arianna, and Sara to practice on, you should be a pro, when it comes to fixing little girls hair. You can do french braids and what is it called when you do the french braids underhanded? That is really cute too. Too Cute Makenna girl!
