Isabelle strikes again...

Last Sunday morning rolled around, as always, and I decided that I would spend some real quality time doing my hair. I love hair and I love styling it but I don't spend much time on it these days. But now that our church has changed its meeting time to 1:00 pm, I have a lot of extra time to get me and the girls ready for church. Also, I wanted to look nice for my hubby who would be getting home after a week away in Baltimore.
This is what I did...
Showered
Blow dried my hair
Hot rollers with hairspray
Applied make up
Took out hot rollers
LOTS and LOTS of hairspray...


As I am spraying my hair Isabelle came into my bathroom. I saw her watching me with wonder and awe. I imagined that she must be thinking how pretty her mom looks and wishing she were old enough to wear makeup and do fancy hair. {She is after all a girly girl} Then she speaks up and says, "Mom guess what?"
I answered "What?"
She happily explained, "Well, I noticed that your hairspray was almost gone so I filled the bottle up with water. Now you won't have to go to the store and buy new hairspray!"


Ugggg! My big, fabulous, movie star like, curly hair, that I spent almost an hour on, is now flat and straight and I had to go to church wearing a pony tail AGAIN! Did I mention that watered down hairspray smells pretty much like the regular kind. Otherwise, I think I would have figured it out sooner. Leave it to Isabelle to look out for me and my interests. I do love her so!

I am so sorry about your hairdo. For some reason Not Me keeps striking at my house. Not me broke my favorite necklace, and Not Me spilled the milk this morning. I think Isabelle is a scream!! I get my blog background from thecutestblogontheblock.com. Its a free one! I am all about free.

That's pretty cute! Sorry about your hair. I hate it when you get yourself all psyched up to look hot and something goes wrong... I'll just look for you on Sunday to see if you had a chance to pick up some more hairspray..

I am sooo sorry about your hair, but truly, I was laughing out LOUD when I read this!! HAA HHHAAA!!! So funny. Although, I am sure it was NOT funny when it happened. For what it's worth, you still looked like your gorgeous self on Sunday, as USUAL. :) Gotta love Isa!

Lucky for you, you look like a movie star with your hair pulled back, too. So no biggie! Cute story!
