{new year:new look:new me}

I have been in a rut lately...a worn out, stay at home mommy rut who barely has time for a 5 minute shower let alone a daily beauty regiment & personal style. Don't get me wrong, I love being able to stay at home & take care of my men but sometimes I want to rip my hair out. Sometimes it is tiring having someone whining at you all day long, trying to crawl away with a poopy diaper half open, wailing for an hour because they are tired. And that's just the baby. I still have my home to clean, dishes to do, dinner to make, laundry to do...and a husband who makes mad hours so I go all day long with no adult conversation because by the time he gets home, I'm exhausted. So yeah, I barely have time or energy for much more then a shower.

Yes, I have turned into one of those moms...running around in sweats, clothes that no longer fit this post baby bump body of mine, short soccer mom hair & not a bit of makeup to be seen. I used to be a girl that wore loud colors, lots of makeup & color that was never the same color... this year, I'm about to bring a bit of my early 20s back to my late 20s. I have decided to jazz up my short mom hair cut, add some excitement to my comfortable wardrobe & even try & slap on some makeup before I leave the house. 

It's not much but it's a slow start to a new look. I actually am wearing foundation, a bit of mascara, a bolder sweatshirt (yes, still a sweatshirt, I still have a little one who drools & spits up on everything for goodness sake!) & even went for a bit of a hair flip on one side.

Here's to a new year & new experiments on my appearance!
