When Amaya was born she had dark wavy hair. Around 6 months it all fell out and slowly grew back blonde. The key word here being slowly. At 2 years old her other friends her age had hair halfway down their backs and she had little itty bitty pigtails, that we were thrilled to finally be able to show off! Her hair has some beautiful natural curl to it, but her favorite thing is for me to straighten it so she can have longer hair sometimes. I wanted to take this picture to document that finally, after 6 years Amaya actually has some length to her hair :) I will admit though, that for a while I kept it short in hopes it would thicken up a bit, but we finally grew it out and...ta da!!
The funny thing is, that both of my boys were also born with heads full of hair that never fell out and we actually had to cut at a young age to keep them from looking like little mops...but with our girl it takes forever to grow hair...go figure!
