Wise words for a Monday Morning.

April 4, 2011

Posted 09/12

I made it through the weekend without hubby:) I just soaked up every minute I could with my little guy knowing there are only a few left with just him and me. We got to spend lots of QT time together and  lots of time with his little cousins. My sister lives down the road (lucky me!) so we got to sunbathe while we watched them run and play.
Needless to say, I saw this photo and felt it was perfectly appropriate for how I am feeling today. I am sure some of you can relate;) If only my hair looked that good “messy”!
Happy Monday!
P.S. Drawing a winner tonight for the Elliven Sequin and Ruffle Clutch! Don’t miss out!

  1. I love her hair! I wish I could pull off that messy hair look.

  2. Martina says:

    Actually – this hair looks perfect on that girl – just like yours on you! Bad hair day is for pther people 😉 Have a great day (and relax if you can, baby will soon be there – YAY!)!

  3. I adore the perfect messy hair – that tousled out of bed look looks divine on her. xx

  4. Im sure you look perfect just like Keiko Lynn! happy everything worked out this weekend, good luck sweets xoxo

  5. Totally love the messy hair myself. My hair is in between right now. I am waiting for it to get long so I can do messy hair again!!! 🙂 Have a wonderful day!

  6. leigh says:

    YAY! I have the same print. It’s such a fun reminder to not take myself so seriously every day. I have to say that I’m embracing the messy hair today too! I also wanted to let you know I left you a little shout out of my blog & a picture of me & my favorite new necklace!
    Thanks again!

  7. You are SO cute!!! love this post Anna! but my hair looks like a crazed birds nest right now. if that’s messy monday morning hair, then I think I must be related to Edward Scissor Hands or something. hahaha!

  8. I agree with most of the comments above– the girl in the photo has like the perfect “messy” hair look and it doesn’t look messy at all! haha. My hair right now on the other hand…….

  9. Still no baby??? Ahhh I´m thinking of you every day! 😀

  10. YES! Consider this my new montra!!

  11. hehe, love that photo… and funny how my hair is JUST like that right now… too lazy to get out of bed kinda hair 😉

  12. What a fun way to spend the weekend (minus the hubby being gone)…I can never get the messy look to look “cute messy”! Doesn’t that sound so pathetic??? (c: Happy Monday!

  13. Haha, love this. I am most definitely embracing messy hair this morning! With curly hair it’s a pretty regular occurrence 😉

  14. Kayla says:

    After seeing Keiko with this I actually went and bought the Embrace Messy Hair poster and have it in my bathroom.

  15. Glocal Girl says:

    So appropriate, so cute. Where are your baby bump pics??? X

  16. Gaw! I wish my hair looked that good in a good hair day! Yay for quality time with your little guy!

  17. If her hair is considered “messy” you’ll be scared of mine.

  18. ag. says:

    Ooh, this makes me miss my long hair! Sounds like you had a lovely, little weekend!

  19. tickled. says:

    OMG! One of my best friends has that print in her bathroom! It’s the cutest!!! 🙂

    xo! Lauren @ tickled.

  20. Megan says:

    My hair always looks like this. Nothing wrong with a little messy hair! I want to see your baby bump pictures!!

  21. Natalia Lynn says:

    I know! I wish my hair looked cute ‘messy’. And I know what you mean about soaking it up, before I had my second son I took my other little guy all around for some mommy time. It was great! I am sure your son is loving it!

  22. Julie says:

    I remember doing the same thing before our second little guy arrived. I just got as much cuddling and one on one time that I could with our first kiddo. I’m terribly excited for you Anna….this is a wonderful time! And I LOVE the messy hair look, but I don’t know that I’m very good at pulling it off, may have to call it the “just out of bed look” in my case lol

  23. Nuha says:

    isn’t keiko just gorgeous? I love her hair! And I’m embracing messy hair today…too bad it’s not embracing me! lol

  24. I am so happy to find where this print comes from, i have seen it around and have wanted it forever!

    Come enter my photo giveaway!

  25. Indie.Tea says:

    Her hair is SO pretty…I’ve got to come up with a messy hair style. Mine’s so flat-straight though…
    And your weekend sounds enviably lovely…

  26. Barry went on retreat too! didn’t have a little one to comfort me- amarena did the job!

  27. thais. says:

    wish my hair looked that good when messy as well. it sounds like a lovely weekend… how sweet to have cousins down the street!

  28. Aw, I love that. I’ve actually seen it on a print in a bathroom before- so cute!!

    Thinking about you… when is you due date?

  29. Bron says:

    Absolutely. My hair is supposed to look like this today but am fairly sure it doesn’t! Cute image 🙂

  30. Lori says:

    HAHA! I agree with you 🙂 I do love this print though..

  31. gaaaa, no babymaking news yet? well, i’m sure glad to hear your weekend went so well and the BIG moment is still upcoming any day. Keiko Lynn kills it every time, i feel like i should almost bow to her amazing messy hair perfection. AND insert a salute! love it. be well Anna. ♥

  32. Marcie says:

    Isn’t that the truth! I love messy hair when it “cooperates.”

    xo Marcie

  33. So glad you had such a lovely weekend, Anna! I think there’s a lot to the idea of embracing messy hair — and days without wearing any makeup. I’m convinced that if a man thinks you’re beautiful without makeup, with messy hair, and in cotton underwear, you should keep him. But first, you need to think yourself beautiful like that.

  34. Enjoy this time with your little guy! I wish I looked good with messy hair too!

    xoxo,
    Chic ‘n Cheap Living

  35. Oh Anna, I am the queen of messy hair. That’s pretty much my style most of the time. I am glad you had a great time this weekend with your little one. I can’t imagine how thrilling it must be for you right now. Just enjoy the peace and quiet before the big change comes into your life. The wonderful mother and person you are, I know you will do a great job of taking care of everything smoothly and seamlessly.

    Sending you and your lovely family warm wishes.

    Prati

  36. Sounds like a lovely weekend! I’m doing the messy hair thing right now 🙂

  37. SoapyMermaid says:
