Yes, Ky is now sporting a bit of a pixie look. I was honestly ready to cut her hair anyhow but she hastened the process when she took two huge CHUNKS out of it herself with the surgical scissors from her bedroom drawer… Why? One might ask, does one keep surgical scissors in a 3 year old’s room. Well lets see… there was the ostomy and then the broviac and then… you get the point. The scissors are kept on a LOCKED shelf about 3 feet ABOVE her changing table so she was houdini to even get them in her hands!
I was pretty upset when I first saw the carnage. I panicked for a minute and then decided we had to find some way to straighten it out!
At any rate I found a little style that I thought I could cut around the damage she did and I think it turned out pretty cute!!! What do you think???
She was obviously devastated by the hair carnage… or not.

Ky.. LOVE the new do!!! It makes you look like such a big girl!
What a cutie!!! Love it!!
She is SO GROWN!
Ky’s hair is adorable! She looks so grown up with it!
She is so darn cute!! Props to you for a great cut.
She looks like such a big girl Amber….Bittersweet eh?
Every child does it, but she really did it good. And so did you. It is soooooo cute and she looks sooooo grown up! It is great! Love you.
LOVE it!!! Wow, our these girls really that “big” now? She looks so grown-up! Wow. I am also impressed that you were able to cut and style her hair yourself- you are so artistically talented.
And anyone who’d think to criticize you for one lonely pair of scissors in a locked drawer would have a cardiac infarction if they stuck their head in E’s room- I am pretty sure we have no fewer than 12 pairs of surgical scissors hanging in a shoe organizer (used for medical supplies) on her door… along with yards of tape, medical creams of every variety, etc. Her closet is where we keep the “heavy duty” supplies, and looks like a hospital supply room plain and simple. It’s a good thing E can’t climb or move fast at all-she could never get away from me fast enough to get in to anything. Now the other little one is a monster…. I cringe at the thought of him getting tall enough to open a door, lol!

Chase Community Giving is awarding $1 million to 5 charities! The Gwendolyn Strong Foundation is working to find a cure for Spinal Muscular Atrophy – and they could use the money!
Fast Facts:
- SMA is the #1 genetic killer of infants under the age of 2
- 50% of those diagnosed will not live to see their 2nd birthday
- kids with SMA lose the ability to sit, stand, walk, talk, eat, swallow, and breathe
- 1 in 40 people is a carrier
- the National Institute of Health says that SMA is the #1 CURABLE disease if given research funding
- right now there is NO cure and NO treatment
