It was some kind of weird day here in the South Bay. Cloudy and raining one minute, stupid sun peeking out from behind the clouds the next, wind gusting like it's the Midwest or something. These kind of schizophrenic days really play a number on my psyche. Plus it's kinda difficult to know how to dress when it's 20 degrees cooler in the shade vs. the sun. Still, most locales have to deal with schizophrenic weather more often than L.A., so I should quit my bitchin'.

Yesterday Alexa was scratching her eyes violently, and I realized it was because her bangs were too long. So I pinned them up with a barrette and chopped. I could feel that my scissors were slipping. I knew it would end haphazardly. I KNEW IT. But I still went with it. Sometimes being a mom means always wearing your poker face. So I present to you Alexa's first asymmetrical haircut. I'm sure it won't be the last. She's a pretty edgy baby, wouldn't you say?

You can't see my necklace, I know. All these photos, and not a single one of the necklace. I'm going to fire the photographer (just kidding, H). It's nothing terribly exciting, just a glass strawberry with gold seed accents. And by gold, I mean the appearance of gold (because it's from F21 and cost $5.80).

A big shoutout to Sara again this week. Without her Alexa would be naked and I would be topless and shoeless. (Hardy har har har.)
