leaf rubbings and waterfall ponytails

Today we gathered leaves and did some leaf rubbings because..... well, no reason, we just did :)


You can see that we don't have many leaves changing color yet - still lots and lots of green.  Actually, this is our first fall in this city, so I'm not sure what to expect in terms of fall colors.  Maybe we'll go straight from green to brown?  I do know we arrived in early February and the color was most decidedly brown :( 


Neither of my girls have the perfect hair texture to do little waterfall ponytails .... don't get me wrong, I LOVE the curls, both the little curled ends of Julianna's locks, and Lydia's crazy head full of curls but they don't have fine straight hair.  Waterfall ponytail hair. 

And Isaac, well, he does :)


But he is a little boy, so he never wears ponytails.  Well, almost never!  He often sidles up for some cuddling when I'm doing the girls' hair, and every now and then a stray ponytail holder finds its way towards his sweet little head! 

No worries though - he is all boy - wrestling his sister on the living room floor (and winning!) as I write.  Gotta run!

Cute pony tails but they look so out of place on all boy Isaac! Glad you are enjoying your fall weather - it is definitely convertible weather here!

You should let your little boy grow his hair out long -Long long-long long Long –Long long long long because he look so so so so cute and let him wear any colors of ponytail holders and let him wear them on the corners and on the sides to any height he wants to and also let him wear hair barrettes and hairclips and bobby pins
