Crazy Hair and Oldies but Goodies

Aunt Wookie got her nickname for a reason…not only was she born on the day Star Wars came out (May 25, 1977)…but she looked like a little Wookiee…with her crazy thick hair…I guess there’s a slight resemblance?:)

And 32 years later almost to the day (May 22, 2009)…Stellyn Adams Lee joins the family and inherits a very similar hair pattern…although Wook wins by far based on sheer volume…see Wook on the left and Stell on the right at almost the same age (5 months-ish).

Stell and Chewbacca: Not quite the same but the vest helps:)

I mean…Aston would have been there too had it not been for his 4 month hair cut:

These are the steps Stell took to get to where she is today hair-wise…
At 2 months it was just wild and stringy…no amount of brushing/slicking could tame it…crazy hair
At 3 months she went on film to cry out for help:)
And by 4 months she came to terms with her doo…and felt good about the hair she was born with:)DSC_0231
Here’s some other “hair influences” in Stell’s and Aston’s lives…
Daddy at 2 Months and 7 Months (Jeff HATES this cross-eyed balding buddha pic)…see Stell it’s really not that bad!…

The Grandmothers…BB on the left (7 months-ish) and Gram on the right (15 months-ish):Betty Lee maybe 7 monthsSusan Moffat Hill 15 months
Whoa…Hold up! Checkout BB again…how much does Stell look like her?!

best post EVER. lOVE the oldies pics - BB and Stell look exactly alike - think it's the turned down mouth, but also something in their shapes as well. jeff's bald buddha pic is hilar and am so glad to finally have the low-down on aunt wook's name - would have never guessed! :)

great job Kate...love the family history of the hair doo's....love that you have a picture of You wearing the smocked pink dress (with GG Sybil) and then you have apicture of Stellyn wearing the same dress with her jeans..really great! Fun to have the pictures on you and Meg on the changing table that Pop made. And now Stellyn has the table!

Love the pictures of Jeff!!

Wow does Stellyn look like BB! Yes, if Stellyn has inherited Wookie's hair, she will be so fortunate!

Thanks for making this wonderful entry!!! love, Gram

I had a good laugh at Jeff's baby pic. He has pretty awesome hair now, though, so it all works out.
