Blame it on pregnancy hormones...


I've been wanting to chop my hair off for a while now. I have a few new friends here with super cute short hair. They pull it off beautifully. Then, in February, my mother sent me this picture of herself and my father.


And I was ready. (How beautiful is my Mother here?!) She is ten years younger than I am right now in this picture...so lovely!

So two weeks ago I went from this:

to this:




I really, really love it. I think I look adorable--with just a sprinkling of Justin Bieber to keep me humble. Good thing I have bigger boobs than The Biebs--they keep me from being mobbed by 14 year old girls.



OK, OK, maybe it is my ever expanding midsection that keeps me from being mistaken for Justin Bieber...


The kids gave me mixed reviews. Clare liked it much more once we started calling the style a "Pixie cut". Adell cried when she first saw me. She kept on drawing her hand from the top of my head down to my chin saying "Your hairs need to come down!" And when Will came home Adell said "Daddy, you have hair like Momma!"

LOVE IT! You look beautiful! but you already did... so, it'd be hard for you to screw that up. :)
But I want one, too! Maybe bobbed in the back more 'cause I don't have your sexy slim neck, but still I've been dreaming of that Michelle Williams hairstyle ever since we saw Drive (which I don't recommend). Maybe after I lose another 30 lbs. Enjoy yours, though!
I'm so jealous!

I really really like it. It suits you well. I cut mine that short when I was pregnant with Camden and I LOVED washing my hair. It was so easy.

I really liked your kids' reactions too. Hilarious.
