back to basics

i'm going to share a little secret - i really am a true blonde, sort of. unfortunately though, my hair isn't naturally a beautiful platinum blonde color like my brother's, i too have to pay for that kind of "fun". instead it's kind of this ugly, sandy blonde color that isn't quite blonde or brown, just kind of in-between. for most of my life i have embraced the blonde, although on a few occasions i have gone over to the "dark side", including recently, but to be honest, it just doesn't feel like me. luckily i have my own personal hair dresser who is always ready & willing to perform her magic at my beck & call. so last week i walked into her "salon" with dowdy, mousy brown hair & emerged a blonde bombshell. it felt so natural, i didn't even have to look twice... although, i am still getting used to my shorter new 'do - cutting 6+ inches can really lighten your load! at least now i can put another check mark on my countdown to baby checklist - hair beautified, check! now even if she comes a bit early, at least i'll be looking hot (as hot as you can look when you are about to pop! that is). hopefully though, she will make her entry right on time... otherwise my mom just might miss the big celebration, it's kinda hard to rush on over to the hospital when you are backpacking around india.

You look darling and I had to actually double check to see if your baby belly was still there. It's microscopic!

I had to leave a comment - hope you don't mind the random reading - and how even more random to see you at preschool.

You look beautiful, Kelly! I LOVE the blonde on you - that's the only way I think I've ever seen you but you should totally embrace it because it looks great! And you are the cutest prego girl ever. Seriously. I am sooo happy for you that you are having a girl this time around.... mine has been sooo much more mellow than my little boy has ever been. Until she joined the picture, I didn't know that babies came that way! She is a lucky girl to be getting such a cute mom! Good luck with everything! :)

Love the hair!! You look great. You do NOT look like you're about to pop. Your mom is backbacking across India? What a trip! You are an awesome traveling family! (adopt me please. I'm an excellent babysitter)

I have the same natural hair color. But most of my life I too have embraced being blonde. Brown doesn't fit. And I will probably never like my natural hair color since someone once referred to it as "dirty dishwater blonde."

I thought you wouldn't share a picture of yourself ha ha. Love it. You look absolutely beautiful.

Changing hair length, color, etc. is such a part of being preg isn't it?
