Not so cute!

So as I am struggling my way back into real clothes from a body by baby that is now 9 going on 10 months old.  I am so green with envy as those mamma's that breast feed and the pounds fall off, not the case for me.  I found myself today feeling cute.  I had new boots from David, new sweater from in-laws, shirt from mom and a skirt I made via the fabric from a work friends donation.  I left the house feeling groovy and hip.  All lumps and bumps hidden.

Upon arriving at work.  My co-worker took one look at me and said yikes your eyes look terrible.  Then another and another and well, a few kids had to make comment and once again for the second day I brought my red bleary eyes home to my family who love me anyway, and don't care that I look cute in my outfit.  They in fact would rather I had on sweats and a shirt that I don't mind having a peanut butter hand print on the front and baby puke on the shoulder.  

I shall try agian getting cute and going in, but only if David assures me that I don't look like a red eyed monster.

Jacob/ Haircut/ Park ahhhh

Mama's special day yesterday.  Spent the morning with family hit the mall playground and looked at the holiday sales.  then I got a haircut.  Went in for a trim decided to grow it out opps oh well it will grow.  It is a good cut. Should grow out nice.

Ok Phia is always cuter then me even with a new cut.  Don't ya love the summer dress?  It was like 50 degrees out today!

Then I was off to see New Moon with friends.  It was awesome.  Much better then the first. The special effects were better and I liked how the cut the movie out of the book.  Won't ruin the end but one friend sitting just down the way yelled at the end "I'm not happy!"  she was totally jones to know what happens next and she hasn't read the books.  Big mistake! Read the books.  Then read Graceling by Kristin Cashore it's excellent. So I finished the book today took Phia to meet her buddy at the park and have spent the rest of the day cleaning and doing laundry!

Washington parks are beautiful even if it's cold and wet out.  That's the river in the background.
