Cosmo and Candy

Did you guys see this? I came across it on yahoo news and laughed. A Mom and Dad of twin boys took them on their first flight. They were so worried that the boys would cry a lot and disturb the other passengers, so they made little candy bags and handed them out. Adorable! But I also think, they shouldn't have to do that! If you are someone that gets upset if there is a crying baby on board, then get over it. Babies cry and babies need to fly too! Go get on another airline such as " No-Babies-Allowed Airlines." Oh? That doesn't exist? THEN DON'T FLY. These poor parents are so sweet to do this. And I know the first time we fly with Samantha I will probably be sweating bullets, too. However, I might physically harm anyone that does the eye roll or makes a stinky comment about my crying baby. Just sayin...



In other news, I need a makeover. BADLY. I might as well be sporting a pair of "mom jeans" at this point. I just feel so unattractive and frumpy lately. I definitely could stand to lose about 50 pounds, but that's a work in progress. I need something immediate to make me feel better. Like a haircut and color. Or some new outfits. Definitely, since Sam's arrival I have put myself on the back burner. My wardrobe is embarrassing. Seriously, I hate shopping with this post baby body I have going on. Things fit SO weird on me. I really need a massage, a mani/pedi, a haircut and color! A blog friend did a post with different (virtual) hairstyles on her! I thought it was so cool and I asked her for the link! Which I believe off the top of my head was www.cosmopolitan.com, but I could be wrong. Anyways, it allows you to upload a picture of your face and then try out different haircuts/color and makeup too! It was so fun to do! But I'm not very tech savvy so I had a hard time getting things to look right! However, I kind of really like this color and cut on me! What do you think? Excuse, the chunk of blonde in the front and the weird neck color thing going on. I couldn't seem to edit it correctly!

Yes you need to make time for you. I think last you mentioned a bit of "me time" was just before your baby shower.

You should definitely plan an afternoon to yourself!

(I've flown when my twins were 13 months old. It was HORRIBLE. I wish I had thought of the candy!)

As I started reading this I was going to comment asking if you tried out that site, and then I kept reading...I love that look! I think you could definitely rock that color. Do whatever you can to get an afternoon to pamper yourself...you deserve it!

You definitely should take some time out for yourself sweetie! A new hair style would be the perfect thing! And that color you picked out would look amazing on your skin tone.. And that story about the candy is hilarious! I know I would be terrified to fly with my boys, but sometimes you have no other choice. People will live!

Oh, and thanks for posting those links on my page yesterday! I love all of the helpful tips!!

Yes, make sure to take time for you. EVERY new mom I know, somewhere between the baby being 6 months and a year, does a big makeover - whether it be working out and losing weight (NOT me, lol), getting new outfits, etc. You gotta do it. And that hair looks cute on you:).

Oh, and yeah, I got death looks from some grumpy old men on the plane. I wanted to slap them. It could have been worse for them - they could have been ME! lol!
