,

I hear you on that one! Thankfully, we had a girl, or there would

have been trouble (we like opposing teams -- and it would have been

hard to decorate it with both college football teams). Fortunately,

we won't go round and round on it since we agreed that we'd make it

more girlie than that. The stickers have been easy to work with.

We opted not to paint it as it's just so much work (plus this one is

just " temporary " in that we will receive a decorated band with the

design imprinted in the next week or so).

Have fun decorating!!

Cherly,

Believe it or not I think there was a banded little boy who had a split personality helmet decoration. his parents were graduates of rival schools so his helmet was split down the middle. does anyone know if his pic is in the photos section???

Thanks - we think she's adorable in her band! We're getting another

band because when we originally ordered the band, we asked for a

design to be imprinted on the band. However, the order went out

without our design request. So they are getting another band for

her. I wish it sat better on her face, but the coverage is really

good in back, so we opted not to make any changes on the band

(however, he did trim some of it at the last appointment which

brought it up off her eyebrow on the left side -- however, I haven't

posted an updated picture with that).
