Slinky

Madeline Claire,

After your bath the other day, which you always take with your sister, washing each other's backs is your thing and you love to giggle together in the tub, getting scrappy over who can put the most squirty toys in the random Boo Bucket that has hung around since Halloween, it appeared.

Your very first slinky curl.*

Tucked behind your adorable little ear, was one spiral curl going around and around and around.  The perfect curl.  Your slinky curl. 

Tomorrow you will be sixteen months old.  We look forward to discovering more about you everyday.  Finding that one little twist of hair is just the tiniest tip of Madeline Clarie iceberg.

We love everything about you, Mads.  From the top of your head to the tip of your toes.

*The term Slinky Curl came to be after Poppa brought Ellie a Slinky Junior.  Ellie pulled out one of her many curls and dubbed it a Slinky Curl.  And there you have it.

  1. Absolutely adorable! Why do kids have to grow so darn fast? Fun to have a way to remember and document these cute events (no matter how small!) to have forever. I am sure she will love to hear about them as well.

  4. I'm a new follower via Fun Follow Friday. My little guy is a little over two and has a head full of those curls. The first one melted my heart. Each after did the same! Now, he needs a haircut - his bangs are bugging him - but I am NOT ready for him to lose even one of his golden "slinky" curls!
