A New Haircut for the New Mama

I forsee in my near future little time for an extensive beauty regimen or pampering. From what I hear from friends and family, once the baby arrives there will be some days that I will be lucky to get a shower. So ... today I took a pre-emptive strike. Today I took the time to go to the salon and get a haircut. Knowing that I won't have time after baby's arrival to primp in front of the mirror for forty five minutes while I blow dry, flat iron, and style, I got a cute new haircut.

When I arrived at the salon and my hair stylist asked me what we were doing today these were my simple instructions: I need a haircut that can be wash and go without having to style it, but that still looks super cute because lots of pictures that will last a life time are going to be taken of me in the next couple of weeks.

I knew I wanted something easy, but something cute. Despite my swollen face and the minor acne breakout I am currently experiencing, I want to know that the first pictures of baby Marshall and I will turn out cute. I am all about the simplicity of just being able to wash my hair, step out of the shower and go on my merry way while still being confident enough that someone can snap a picture that will end up in photo albums family and friends will look at for years to come.  

I think we accomplished just that. I am excited to play with my new cut and I am confident that it will work out just the way I wanted it to.
