It's been a long time...

we shouldn't have left you, without a dope beat to step to...

*flashback to 2000 "Try Again" by Aaliyah*

But yeah - the family is hanging in there, same ol' same ol' with us!

Baby Faith is growing so much, walking and talking and exploring the world! It's really fun to watch her learn each day, she's a really sweet baby and I thank God everyday for blessing me with her!

One thing that I'm learning however is how to manage her hair. I've learned how to cornrow (yayyy mee!); the hard part is managing to find a time when she'll sit still enough for me to braid it. My mom gave me the advice to do her hair while she sleeps - she said that's how she did my hair. It took me a while to try it, I was afraid of disturbing her sleep; but I found out that it doesn't wake her! Hallelujah!!! I really need to make an effort to style her hair at least one (good) time per week; maybe I'll even take pictures of my handiwork and share them here as I learn!

Before I wrap this post up though, I gotta tell you that SoulMom blog is giving away a gift set of Cara B Naturally products!!! I hope I win, their products sound WONDERFUL - I'd really like to give the Leave in Conditioner/Daily Moisturizer a try on Baby Faith's head AND mine!

Gotta go...
