New 'Do for Mei Mei

Mei Mei got her first trim since coming home.

Here's what she looked like the week we met her in China.

Ugh... such a bad haircut on such a pretty girl!

 Here's what she looked like this week.

You can't totally see it here but the back lengths

came down to a lovely 80's-looking pointy mullet. 

Even with the bulk of it pulled up in cute little piggies, it was a mop!

She liked the cape.... thought it was pretty funny

to poke her finger up into it and make a little tent.

Not even sure why it was funny but it tickled her fancy.

It did NOT, however, keep her still.

Nothing does that.

Ever.

Even in her sleep.

Heh.

Here's how she looks, all trimmed up and tidy.

Except for the stringy little straggler hanging there in her eye.

It flips over from the back of her head

like a bad comb-over.

No matter what we do to try to control it.

Excuse the smudge of peanut butter on her forehead.

Eating lunch here is a full-contact sport

and we were without the proper protective headgear, apparently!

I got a bit of a new 'do too - unintentionally.

I went in and asked for a just a few highlights to frame my face.

I came out with these shocking white {Seriously. WHITE!} locks.

All over the top, front and sides of my head.

 Sometimes, getting more than you've paid for is not a bargain.

That's all I'll say about that.
