We're Improving On Our Time

Braiding time, that is. We're now down to about 40 minutes. That's accounting for the squirming and movements.

That's pretty good progress, I'd say.

And, she looks mega cute with it all done up. It helps that the braids last for most of the week too. Yippee for me :-)

2nd Braiding Attempt

When was the last time you heard about Coolio? Remember him? He is a rapper turned actor, hot from back in the 1990s. Well, Uncle Sherwy brought up his name last Sunday. Said that Jamayia's braids (à la Grandma) reminded him of Coolio's hairstyle... That brother of mine is something else.

Well, Mommy did try her luck at braiding last night, after our bath time... Can you tell that I tried rebraiding it this morning? I only managed to redo half of her head before she got overly fussy...

First Set of Braids

Thanks, Grandma! She managed to tackle Jamayia and keep her distracted long enough to do this to her head:

It's actually braided, not twisted. Understand that my child doesn't like to have her head touched. So this was definitely an adventure. It probably won't stay in for too long (she is going to the doctor tomorrow and there's no need to look g-h-e-t-t-o). We'll see how things look in the morning.
