Mom Hair
If you had told me four years ago that I would have "short" hair. I never would have believed you. I would have said, "huh-uh, scissors aren't touching this head of hair!" I always used to look at my hair as a sort of positive attribute of my physicality. I thought that keeping my hair long would somehow keep me in a special "club" of sorts. Weird, I know, but I hope I'm not alone in saying this, women are constantly looking for something to "hold" on to that keeps them different (in a good way.)
I always felt that my mid-back length hair gave me a one-up of sorts, and no matter if my "skinny" jeans didn't quite fit, or if I had a zit, at least I could always fall back on that loooong hair. Well, enough analyzing the psychology of hair and what it means to me.
I now have significantly shorter hair, after getting the Victoria Beckham cut last year. (I guess I thought the hair cut would make me weigh 105 pounds like Posh.) I regularly wish for long hair again, and secretly vow to myself to NEVER cut it again, but I know that's a lie. I have transitioned to the Mom hair phase, and I will embrace it, no matter how difficult it feels.
Fabulous Award/Tag
1. Diet Coke and Coffee. I put these 2 drinks together because I love them both equally, and they both fulfill my caffeine desires. Yum and Yum!
2. Chocolate Donuts. The puffy, soft, yeast donuts, with thick, rich, chocolate icing. That could possibly be the reason I am struggling to lose weight. :-(
3. Twitter, plain and simple. I have become hooked on this social networking scheme. It is so easy to get wrapped up in reading and tweeting, and reading and tweeting, okay you get the picture.
4. My sweethearts-referring to my four children. I love to hold them, cuddle them and the two youngest still sleep in our bed with us at night! They are only young once...
5 .I have to "copy" Ashley on this one, but Magazines are a major weakness of mine. I have even devoted a whole post to being a self-proclaimed magazine junkie. I believe I have around 16 subscriptions to various publications that I have received for free through various offers, and I love to skim and read through them ALL.
Now I will pass this along to(and tag) ShaRhonda at The 4 Crows, Megan at Matt n Meg's Blog, Julie at Kingdom Klipper, Liz at My Crazy Life with 4 Boys, and Larissa at The Holquin's.
Get to it girls!
My Very First Vlog Attempt, Failed!
Instead I will just post some pics, afterall it is Wordless Wednesday!
Is This Cute or What?
Fast forward to this morning, I was getting Mika and Judah clothes to wear, when low and behold I see Mika's new cabbage patch doll, (that she just got for Christmas) Jane, laying on the floor in her closet. Let's just put it this way, I know where the smell came from now!
And you know what, I wanted to be mad because Mika "ruined" this doll, but I think the sweet memory she gave me, is far more priceless than a $25.00 doll.
