Well, better late than never… Since my last post, I got married and had our son early in Mid-September. I’ve been wearing makeup more often, and I’ve been trying to get online more frequently between feeding, changing, playing with and just staring at our Lil’ Monster. This look was done just about three weeks after our son was born. Truth be told, I hadn’t bothered with makeup almost my entire pregnancy because I was so tired all the time. The tradeoff was my back was doing better, but even that’s giving me troubles again. Problem is, I missed posting and writing all that time- and here I was planning on writing every day, putting on makeup every day, and blogging even more often. That plan obviously failed. My little man is such a good baby, I’m going to make a concerted effort (again!) to get back into the business of regularly scheduled postings. That means makeup, fun, and general goofiness.

This particular day I had gone out with my Mom and son, and we had just run some errands quickly and gone home. I gotta tell you, even now my little man is such a good boy for car rides! Plus, it’s funny to see people looking into the car seat and trying to find him- he’s still not quite 7lbs yet, so people tend to remark on what a peanut he is. It’s almost like “Where’s the baby hiding in there?!” Silly indeed. If you want to see some cuteness, I’ll be keeping some updates about him over on my personal blog here… Including his birth announcement picture!

Anywho, this makeup was quick and easy, and I love how the colors complimented each other. It really suited my mood, and because it’s such an easy look to throw together, I’ve worn it two or three times since this initial donning of the colors. You wouldn’t think such a soft blue-green would look good with a bronze-purple color… But proof- it does!
