New Haircut!

I have no idea when my last haircut was. I vaguely remember being in a hair salon a LONG time ago and after that there was one time we got my hair braided... I think that was in middle school! My salon experience is minimal at best. So last week when my mom and I were walking through the mall and one of the Regis stylists ran out the door and asked me to be a model for a class they were having about working with "ethnic" hair I decided maybe a free haircut wouldn't be a bad thing.

I totally didn't want to go this morning. It's scary having someone mess with how you look! But I did go, and after a wash and condition the instructor cut my hair! It was sad seeing all those little fluffballs on the floor of the salon, lol. Then I made a comment about how I would have no idea what to do to straighten my hair, and he asked if I wanted him to do it. So I said yes! He rinsed it, blow-dryed and flat-ironed it on about 20 mins. I'm sure it would take me an hour at least and it wouldn't be as smooth. But since he had cut my hair into a good shape and gotten rid of some of the damaged ends, it looks pretty good straight too. I look like a totally different person! I sent my mom a pic and she didn't know who it was at first, lol.




Tomorrow after I wash it I will have to take a curly pic of it down... it's going to be weird since it was so uneven before. It feels like it's still long enough that I'll get a good ponytail out of it... and your hair is supposed to grow extra when you are pregnant so even if it's a little short hopefully it will grow back quickly!!

Super HUGE news!

Well, I was planning on waiting a bit longer before I posted this online but I think most of the people we wanted to tell right away already know and even though there is a tiny chance something could happen since I'm still in the first trimester, we are going to be positive and post a blog about being preggers!

We went to the free womens clinic this morning and had an ultrasound... looks like baby is doing just fine so far! Perfect size for 8 weeks and 1 day, heart beating at 162 bpm! And the little one was moving around while we were trying to get a good pic.


From the side, and baby was waving "Hi!" (head on top, tiny arm out front)


A little bit upside down! (Head on the left, bum on the right, back along the top)

It was so amazing to see that little heart fluttering and know that I have our BABY inside me! Still boggles my mind! It really put my mind at ease to see that it's really in there.

I'm due March 24, 2011!!

Now that I've said that I forgot all the other stuff I wanted to blog about. I felt like I couldn't blog since I found out because I wanted to post it!! I've barely even been updating my Facebook statuses, lol. Well, I will think of it soon. I guess I need to blog about our CA trip but I have to organize pics a bit first!
