With everything going on this week; trying to get organized, doing my everyday stuff, and getting ready from the reveal from Carolina Paranormal Investigators, I had absolutely no intentions of washing our comforter until at least Monday. The Little Prince had other plans!
I was changing his diaper and then putting him down for his nap. He decided that instead of lying there and letting me change it without a problem, he would rather crawl around! The LP wriggled out of my grip and crawled around on my bed, stinky butt and all....
Looks like I will be washing a comforter after all! At least I know that the Knight will get a laugh out of this while he is eating his spaghetti tonight!
From being mommy to an amazing little prince, to being a new wife, my life is nothing but BEAUTIFUL IMPERFECTION. My life is perfect... even when its not!

Reorganizing Life
Little did I know when I wrote my last post that I would be re-organizing EVERYTHING! This includes my blog. Please bear with me while I figure out what will work for me! I promise it won't be maniacal very long!

My Crazy Beautiful Life
Well, to put it mildly, life has been crazy. I have so many things on my to do list, and I just can't seem to get it knocked down any. So, I have decided that my first priority (besides the knight in shining armor and the little prince) is to GET ORGANIZED!
I'm slowly getting this done, and organizing my goals [one of which is to update my blog more often], and creating MY ULTIMATE PLANNER. YAY!!!!
This is very important because I was always the most organized person I knew, until I got pregnant. Pregnant brain or LAZINESS? probably laziness! I promise to share my progress!

Time to Get Crackin
My LITTLE PRINCE will be 9 months in 10 days. This means that I have less than 3 months to plan his AMAZING 1st birthday party. Of course, the theme will be prince! I'm thinking he should recieve a copy of THE LITTLE PRINCE as his special gift. There is so much to do. Step 1, find a party planning website. Step 2, learn to bake a lemon cake. Step 3, send invitations. and so it begins... wish me luck!

Adventures in DIY Hair
So, naturally, my hair is very dark brown, almost black. So, naturally, I wanted to go blonde.... fun!
One day, my MIL and I were watching our husbands garden, and truth be told, we were getting bored... which is NEVER a good thing! I mentioned something about going blonde, and she said follow me, which, agan, is NEVER a good thing. We go into the house and she hands me two boxes of platinum blonde hair dye. I'm thinking, my hair isn't very long, this should work.. NOT! I dye my hair, and its still brown, lighter, but still brown.
We go to the dreaded WalMart and look at hair dye. We find a really awesome product that is supposed to take it from black to blonde... AWESOME. I go home and dye my hair. I leave it on for the maximum time of 90 minutes... this should do it. NOT! Its blonde, but a dark blonde. If I'm gonna go blonde, I want to be BLONDE!
Frustrated, I get on the internet, which usually doesn't turn out too good for me, but this time it did. I find directions on bleaching hair with peroxide. Wahoo. I make the mixture of half water, and half peroxide and commence to spraying. Left it on for 25 minutes (it can really damage your hair,) rinse, and condition. It is a little lighter. I do sun-in for a few days, and then peroxide again. I continue this pattern until i used this mixture about 5 times. Getting tired of this, I decide to just use peroxide and that worked a lot better. I did this twice. Finally, It is about the color I want....
but...
My roots are showing REALLY BAD!!!!
Even though, I like the color that it finally is, I have learned my lesson. If I want to go blonde again, I will strip it first or go to a salon!
