Hair flowers...Yikes!

What is the deal with these gigantic flowers that people are putting on their newborn baby girls? The flowers I have seen lately for photo-ops are bigger than the baby's head. Are moms trying to outdo each other by trying to see who can get the biggest flower? What ever happened to the tiny bow with the corn syrup? That's what my baby wore. And the headbands are getting thicker and thicker. I personally think the smaller the better, like the silky bands that are 1.99 on the endcap at Walmart. Pretty soon we see not just the giant flower, but the plant that goes with it. "Oh look at your newborn baby, how cute. Where did you get that flowering cactus plant bow? That is sooo cute!" Too bad the baby has no say in all this.
