Two kids means we are both super busy during bath time/bedtime. We are sticklers when it comes to routine and I think we have done a pretty fantastic job throwing another child into the mix.
This means that Dan does June's hair at night pretty regularly to keep it out of her face. Dan has no sister's and really never grew up with girly things, so he has had to learn as we go. He has picked up on it quick and he was definitely meant to have a daughter. He does a pretty good job at ponytails, and having it stay in! You may think doing a pony tail is easy, but if you have never done it before, go on and try and then you will be giving Dan a round of applause. Braids are a work in progress and a bun is still not an option. HA!
He is so incredible with learning all things girl! He's embraced the fact that he has glitter on his lips from kisses that June gives him after she has put on a tube worth of glitter gloss, or that his shoes have permanent flower and butterfly stickers on them. I'm so excited for the makeup phase and when June asks to give daddy makeovers, because he will take it knowing it's time well spent with his daughter, but not really knowing what he has gotten himself into. How I got him, I have no idea, but I am so grateful I did.
