Unveiling
To prove my babeliciousness, I offer you the following photographic evidence...
Before....(ugly, dull, I-swear-I'm-not-drunk, mugshot me)
After....(vibrant, gorgeous, full-of-life, hot mama me)
So, the adjectives are overkill, but I *think* I look better. I certainly feel better! I'm a new woman! The picture doesn't do my 'do justice, it's actually sleeker in person. Not as blond as I dreamed, but I'm still happy with the outcome. In fact, any outcome that included me being out of the house would have made me happy. Well, except for this outcome...
And I'm not feeling that crazy. Anymore, that is.
******************
In further unveiling news, I've decided that I need new names for my children. Their bloggy pseudonyms are just not working for me. I'm just not feeling their names anymore.
From here on out, until I change my mind again, Peanut will be referred to as Carson. This was the name we were going to use if we'd had a boy the second go-round. Peanut just isn't 'Peanut' anymore, he's getting to be such a little boy and needs a name that isn't cutesie.
Introducing Carson Playgroupie....
And I know that I had the contest to name Shel. Unfortunately, her blog name just doesn't fit at all. She will now be called Ella, the back-up girl's name Tate and I had chosen.
Without further adieu, introducing the lovely Ella Playgroupie...
(Yes, those initials in the picture are her real initials...)

39 People are even more brilliant:
dude, you're gorgeous. even the first photo, while you do look a little as though you've just been blindsided by a colicky newborn, is one of those "bad photo of tired good-lookin' woman" shots...and with the new hair, the pick-me-up is clear. clearly hott. we the people have decided.
i like the new names. :)
Luh-uh-uhve the new hair! Also the new names for the kids!
The new do looks great! And your little ones are so cute!
totally hot. sooopah hot if you will. Ella and Carson are excellent names, I wonder if our kids have the same names?
Lou Bear II is going to blogher, that's why he hasn't come home yet.
Your hair looks great! And I'm really diggin the new names.
Gorgeous hair, gorgeous kids!
You look like a new, happier woman! Worth it!
OMG you are one hot mama! Love the new do!
Ella and Carson are cuties!
You are ALL gorgeous!
Love the hair! Can't wait to run my fingers through it in person!
Love the new names too. 'Cept the last name. I'm kinda on a anti-playgroup kick right now. I'm sure understand. But given that they are your kids and oh so pretty ones too, I'm sure the last name will grow on me! bwahahahaha!
Your kids are adorable!!!! I love the new do!
Oh hellyeah, I love the new hair! I may just steal your style (but I'm sticking with purple hair) whenever I, um, get around to actually doing something with mine other than a 24/7 ponytail. :)
Gorgeous. Totally gorgeous.
Love the hair. I just set up my first hair appointment in over a year (how sad is that) for this Tuesday. I've been bemoaning the cost, but heh, I'm worth it. And if it turns me into a hottie, well heh, I definitely need to do it more often.
The new names are great, by the way.
Gorgeous kids, gorgeous mom, gorgeous hair!
You look wonderful! I know exactly what you mean about getting out of the house, even if for only a few hours!
Love the new names! And though Carson may seem "older" but he's still a cutie-pie!
And Ella looks like her daddy.
Both my babies look more like their daddy than me. Don't worry though. We're putting back money for plastic surgery when they're old enough!
Glad you got out and got a new 'do!
I'm having coif envy!!
My stylist moved in September and I haven't had a cut since.
Hey Hottie! You remind me of someone, possibly famous, but I can't think of who.
And Carson and Ella are, as always, adorable, especially with their new aliases.
Love the new hair and the kids new names. Funny how you came up with them. I've been thinking of how to use names and am now considering something similar...maybe middle names, who know?
Your kids are adorable by the way.
woohoo - hot new mama do!
BEAUTIFUL babies, too :)
Great job on everything :)
I think both pictures look hot! The only difference is that I think you're about to cut me in the first shot...
You look smashing and your babies are adorable. 'Nuff said.
You look fabulous in both pics, but I do love the new hairdo. The cut is very flattering!
Ella and Carson are gorgeous!! You look beautiful too, love the new do.
gorgeous, and love the new names
Very nice, and most importantly I'm glad YOU like it! Fun seeing the totally cute pictures of the kids too.
A good haircut is worth its weight in gold.
AHAHAHAHAHA! I love the mugshot! Almost all my pictures look like that...and not on purpose!
And I enjoy Carson and Ella Playgroupie. Good choices!
Carson and Ella are adorable. I'm afraid if my mom ever discovers my blog, she's going to seriously become concerned that I've renamed my children "Crusher" and "Bam Bam." Which for the record has not been ruled out :)
ohhh, la la! Dawling, you are the HOT HOT friend I'd take to a bar and all the men would want to buy you a drink (you'd laugh, toss your lovely hair and say "I'm married" and they would slither away rejected) while I was your sidekick smartass saying things like, "You can't have her but here are a lovely bowl of nuts that are available..."
Love the new do! I thought you were babelicious in the first photo as well.
Does anyone know how to type the sound of a whistle? Because you look hot, my friend.
And I like the new pseudonyms. What would your pseudonym be, Jennifer? Oh, right - Binky Bitch.
Gorgeous hair Jen! I love it! You HAVE to tell me where you got it done. I have plans for my eyebrows next weekend and I am beyond excited...
Gorgeous pics of the kiddos too! I really want to meet Ella before she's as big as my DV!!!
The hair rocks (!) and the kids are too stinkin' cute.
The mugshot photo is HAWT. I'd totally make out with you, in that handcuffs-in-the-back-seat-of-a-patrol-car-with-the-sirens-goin' kinda way. :D
Definitely HOT.
ps - I just did the same thing - drastic new look! Must be something in the air.
the new hair looks GREAT! love!
Wow- what an attractive little family! And I LOVE the new hair. There's nothing more uplifting than a new 'do, seriously!
Oh i love the new look, you look great mommy.
Guess i should be better about reading the posts in order - read a newer one and was like who the heck is Carson and Ella :) . Do love the new names - i love the name Ella but DH says no as it was his grans name (on his dads side and his parents do not get on)
Wow...L-O-V-E the new do! Makes me want to be able to grow hair so I can have it cut like that! ;-)
Then new names are awesome...I agree...Shel didn't seem to suit her...and Carson is such a big-boy name!
