Bubble Tape

Emma's new favortie candy is Bubble Tape. You know what I'm talking about, "6 feet of bubble gum. . .for you, not them"! My parents got Emma and Anna both some a week or so ago. Anna is too small to be alone with Bubble Tape so we took hers away and mistakenly left it in the van. Emma found it and the story is she hid it in the backseat among her crayons and marker pouch. We didn't realize this however until Friday morning! You guessed it we found a wad of gum in Emma's hair.

The funny thing is Jody made her spit gum out when we got home before she went to bed (she fell asleep in the car). The only thing we can figure is she had 2 pieces, lost one and decided to get more, not paying attention to where the first gum may have gone. We didn't realize she had gum in her hair when we put her to bed, she didn't either. Emma is a mover so it was good and stuck Friday morning. I tried some remedies and nothing really was working so I decided it had to be cut. Jody kept telling me to try other things, but there is a limit as to how much time a 4 year old will sit still and have their hair pulled over and over again! I had also cut her hair a few weeks ago, about 2-3 inches because it was looking straggly! Which was making the situation even worse! I think Jody was more upset than anyone about the impending haircut.

This is a picture of the hair I cut out, thought you all might want to see exactly how much and how long some of the pieces were!

She is now sporting a shorter more layered look. I had to really layer it so we wouldn't have to cut it above her shoulders! I like it and Emma does too, that's all that matters!

I should have gotten a picture of Jody crying. . .

How funny!! These are the moments I hope I only read about on friend's blogs and never have to discover on my own! LOL!! Her haircut is adorable. You do such a great job with layering! Maybe we should go into business together. :)

It's sad that you had to cut her hair but it looks great! I think bubblegum stories are always pretty funny! :)

Memories!!! I recall another little 4 year old "helping" her younger brother get gum out of his hair! He sported a much shorter haircut when she got through!!!
