lies, all of them. LIES. but also, ponytails.

Let me be the first to tell you: you shouldn't believe everything you read on the internet.

 Crazy, but true. True. Unlike some things you will read.

 Things like...Pitch Perfect 2 will be released on Netflix on September 1.

 Apparently that was just a pretty little lie. And I was too excited by it to bother fact checking. Waaaaaah.

 So in conclusion, much to my dismay- PP2 is NOT on Netflix right now. As you can imagine, this totally wrecked my day. Buuuuut then I recovered, because Millie got a ponytail.

 (These things may not seem related, but somehow...they are.)
I got a ponytail. It came with a side of sass.

She got her ponytail yesterday and I 100% can't even deal with how freaking adorable it is. Ask anyone I work with. All I could do was shove pictures in people's faces all day. LOOK AT MILLIE SHE HAS A PONYTAIL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!...repeat, repeat, repeat.

I got all the chalk, too. Because I'm the boss.
 Millie's two-year-old friend that lives next door told his mom that Millie is "pretty like a flower." That made me happier than it probably should have. Then when he was over playing with us tonight, he told me "the snake bit me" as he pointed to our garage. Two true things, W. You're on a roll. Unlike the internet. 

 So you know how Millie is a really happy, smiley baby? She is. Except for when she's not (exhibit A: when she's wearing a life jacket). But for the most part, she is.

 Except for on school picture day. School pictures, apparently, are not her thing.
I don't like it and you can't make me pretend like I do. 
Add this to the list of things I obnoxiously forced my coworkers to laugh at all day long. I can't help it. It's too good. Millie is not amused. Don't even try her.

 So my Netflix dreams all crashed and burned this week, but my cute girl got even cuter, brought home some hilarious pictures, and got called a "pretty flower," so in the end, I can't complain.

    Ahhhh! The ponytail!!! So cute!!! I think you and Matt need matching ones. Matching ponytails all around for the win!!! :)

    And Millie's pictures are definitely keepers. Rachel was unimpressed in her preschool photos last year (if looking like 'a deer caught in the headlights" can be considered "umimpressed") so I'm not holding out much hope for school photos this year.

    So I hope you print out the picture of your lovely little family. It's perfect! How is your happy baby not smiling in her school picture? Someone stunk at their job that day.
    That ponytail! She like a baby unicorn or Bam Bam from the Flintstones. Fabulous!
    Stupid PP2 fail. Oh well...just gives you something to keep looking forward to.

    The school picture is great! When Griff was a baby they did school pics, but dressed all of them up in outfits. His is like a pimp with a stripped suit and top hat. And he's not smiling. We received a free 8x10 and calendar magnet. It's two years old, but we can't throw it away because the picture is so funny!

    I suspect my daughter's school pictures will look much like Millie's.

    No surprise that she's rocking that ponytail!

    Love that ponytail!! Camille's hair is still too short for a pony tail and it is making me crazy! :)

    I am dying over Pose A. "They think I'm so happy all the time, but I'm really not. I'm really quite a serious and solemn girl." So adorable!

    We called that fountain head and it looks great on Millie! Love the school mug shots. Just wait till the school uses the proof to make a Christmas ornament and that mug hangs on your tree every year!

    Your child is Agnes from Despicable Me. But human and not cartoon. :o)

    Love the ponytail and the pictures are even more hilarious!! I'm thinking you should choose the one on the left, it has a little more pitiful look to it! She really is so cute no matter what!

    And y'all are all wearing pink in the last pic! My hubby and I are watching Mad Men on Netflix and we found out the last 7 episodes won't be out until February or maybe April 2016. Talk about a KILLER! I think Proof A is somehow smirky? I would get Proof A!

    Ponytails on toddlers are the cutest!!! I want my daughter to be small again so she can pull off the "antenna" again. I miss it.

    The ponytail makes them look so grown up, right?!! Freaking adorable! Sometimes I think the non-smiley pictures are just as cute if not cuter. And the crying ones too.

    Millie is adorable! So I read your blog and got pumped for PP2 & then found out the bad news. BUT...my handy husband found it on Vudu & google play store. You'll have to purchase it but it's out now. :)

    I think you need a ceramic mug of pose B and a bag tag (or 10) of pose A.

I love comments almost as much as I love Mexican food. Seriously.
