Beginning July

 As i mentioned in the previous post, i had a bit of a crummy week. i was grouchy, stressed, and just plain over-emotional. my poor family and house had to put up with it! because of that, i didn't get much cleaning done, and Connor got to do lots of playing hard! i was  bit of a slacker on picture taking, but there was one extremely cute instance that happened that i HAD to share!

Connor usually loves to drink from his sippy cup with the straw, but he decided that his mommy's cup was better, and that he could do it all by himself. he was handling it extremely well so i let him, but them he dumped it all down his front! thank goodness it was only water!

When i cleaned him up i told him to go get his jammies for me, and i laughed when he instead brought me one of his daddy's shirts! it was sooo cute that i decided, what the heck, he can wear it to bed! and he was sooooo excited about it! and wear it to bed he did!

 Also this week i decided my hair needed a makeover. it has been soooo hot that i never ever wear it down, and Connor pulls on it and it makes me even more grouchy, so i decided it was time to cut it off. i was half tempted to do shorter, but i knew i still would want to be able to put it up to keep it out of connor's hands, but i wanted enough of a difference that it felt new. i thought it looked cute the last time it was this length, so i gave it another try. so far, i'm reallly enjoying it! i plan to grow it out again, because long hair is just ME. but i'm very happy to say i'm no longer the type of girl that freaks out about cutting her hair! and my sweet hubby didn't even whine when i said i wanted to cut off quite a bit, even though i know he looooves it long. i cut off about 7 inches! and then i colored it, as you can see. i did highlights at first, but i didn't use my head and so it didn't turn out like i wanted, so i just colored over it all, and i have to say i like the results! Caleb thinks i make a pretty cute redhead, and i think i pull it off pretty well!

Now when i take Connor places people can tell me how he looks like he has red hair! that used to happen all the time and they would say it was obvious it came from me. when my hair is red, his looks like it is too. :)
