I decided that it is time for a change! And what is a bigger change than to color and cut your hair? 

If you remember it, I went to the hairdresser quite a while ago.

Anyway to cut the long story short, I didn't get a dramatic haircut, but I did get some color. Green and pink. I must say that I adore the pink, but the green.. well I like it. I also have a bottle of it to use a home (stargazer if anyone wants to know). 

They didn't bleach my hair, but instead they applied it over my natural hair color (that was somehow bleached by the sun, at least the tips were).

I LOVE the colorful outcome, but at the same time I realized I made myself unemployable with it. 

Oh well, at least for this year is not like I have a real job or something.. like corporate job. D:

YAY for un-photoshopped images. Aren't you proud of me? :D 

 

Next time I should get a nice pixie cut or something and maybe some full head color? IDK, I must think about it. 

Oh and I went to Evilhair salon, because I saw their promo shots and I loved them. Finally a saloon that is well known for wild colors and that can make a plain looking girl like me, look ... well wild :D.

What do you think? 

Hi dear readers,

I know I only covered the first month of being a new mom, but I figured that it is way easier for me to write about what is going on now, and later cover on what was going on months ago. 

This is why I will keep you updated on the happening in the first year (or so), starting with this month. And later when I will remember bits and pieces of months that are missing, I will post about them too! So, yes! It will be a whole diary, just with the upside down posting fashion. :).

So my baby just turned 9 months. What does this mean? 

It means that he is eating solid food (well at least dense, that's it) for a while now and has acquired a decent eating habit. 3 meals per day (usually vegetables and fruits, mixed with water - made into a puree, sometimes with some grain, rarely with meat but that's because I don't eat much meat at all.. if any). So far he is a good eater, eats everything I give him. Haha, but then again like he has any choice :P. He loves to breastfeed almost as much as I do (it's free and it bonds us together). But one thing he also loves. Pieces of food. If the food isn't on a spoon (like soup), he wants to feed himself. This is why it is slowly time to let him feed himself (not just chunks of food, but with a spoon too!). Oh the joy, when everything will be covered in food. YIKES! I still remember when I let him play with food (it was a fruit puree with some baby cereal). It was such a mess. The wall, the floor, the baby - not to mention - everything, and I mean EVERYTHING was covered in food. Icky, sticky food. The one that when it dries it doesn't budge and stays there forever. Ahhh, they joy of parenting! 

He made his first steps aged 7M old, and went on and conquered those tiny legs, that by the end of 9M mark he is walking like a big boy. Now more sitting down after two steps! *proud mommy*

Ahh, it also means that I must have my eyes on my back, practically watch him what is he doing all the time. RUN after him.. damn, with such a peace, I will be FIT in no time. And exhausted, that's it. I am getting a leash for babies, even if everyone around me will be watching me with disgust. :P

Of course everything is for him still edible, well at least it must go through his mouth first, so he can taste it and decide if I can keep it. Or if he eats it. ._. Stones are especially delicious, big, small.. anything that mommy doesn't see. - If he doesn't spit it out, I take it. Not the extra big ones, but the ones that he could swallow. The joy.. of yes, being a parent. 

 Sleep? FINALLY I get some. He sleeps through the night, maybe waking once to feed and then he is off to dreamland. I am the one that can't unlearn the damn weird sleeping pattern that motherhood brought me. 

I can at least say that in the morning I am *somewhat* rested. 

Fancy dressing, make up, nails?! Where did all the pretty go?! 

It still exists, at least with the dressing (if he doesn't cover my current clothes in dirt, saliva or any other unexpected thing), make up is a must - when I have the time (5 min, mm.. okay good to go!), nails?! Sadly these are the ones I miss the most. I can't do my nails. I do have the time to DO them, but not for them to DRY! I was thinking about getting an UV lamp and some gel polish? I don't know... HM?

.. because of everything that's happening around the world and because  I am missing on spring (since it never came, just Summer).. I introduce you to the Red Spring Prayer look.

Simple, subtle but using bold colors. Watered out.

I used:

Makeup forever eyeshadow primer

Mon Ennui Tesla Coil (inner part of the eyelid)

Fyrinnae Sultry samhain

Essence eyeliner in black

Bourjois mascara (pink)

If you google the colors (especially the Fyrinnae one), you will realize what a bold red it is. Well It truly is, but I watered it out (blended), to make i more wearable. I also didn't apply much of it.

I must say I really like the (super wearable) results.

Do you like it too?
