Getting My Hair Done! & Talking About When It All Got Fried Off | Day In The Life Mom Vlog

Good morning guys welcome back to our channel. I just made a little snack pile on the floor for my kids, so that would be quiet for a minute um. Does anybody else do that, honestly, if anything, it's a life hack, hey bud, you're supposed to be snacking! You'Re supposed to be grazing in the pile but good morning, happy monday, it's 9am! We all just had breakfast ren's happy to eat some puffs in the puff, pile huh, yeah, she's, wearing hawks old jammies. The floors are clean. I just cleaned them this morning. I don't want you to stand on my feet. Why are you being such a little joker but yeah? I just wanted to hop on here and start the vlog for today um i'm getting my hair done today. It has literally been almost one year since i got my hair done. I know because i was trying to figure out the name of the salon. I went to last time, so i was like searching for my appointment. Confirmation in my email and my appointment last year was like, like middle of november last year and like it's almost november right now, i was in like my second or the beginning of my third trimester with ren, and i was like pregnant and yeah. That'S how long it's been and like you can tell a long time. I'M glad that that kind of like rooted look is in right now, but this is not. This is not it. I haven't even brushed my hair yet this morning, so like it's a mess i mean i feel like that's a pretty good, pretty good amount of hair growth for a year. I won't complain. I don't want to do anything too crazy. I think i just want to like lighten the top back up again kind of like light and everything no brighten everything again, but i also haven't had a professional haircut in. I couldn't even tell you how long it's probably been over five years, maybe even longer. I don't know because i really i went through this phase, where i used to like be bleached blonde and all my hair broke off, so i wasn't getting haircuts for a long time. I'Ll, usually, just do like a blunt cut myself just on the ends and like maybe like do my face framing a little bit. If i need it, but like it's just been forever, and it's mostly because i have been growing out extremely damaged hair for like the past five years, when i was like in my early 20s and in cosmetology school, i was like a full full bleached blonde, like Bleach and tone every bit of my hair was bleached and i absolutely loved it. I loved being that blonde. I have like never felt cuter, but it's so bad for your hair um like no matter what so many people will say like if you're doing it right like if you have a good hairstylist doing it, it's not going to damage your hair, it's wrong. It'S so bad for your hair, and i um did get it done by somebody who was not doing a good job and literally my hair broke off like crazy and if you guys watch uh blair walnuts here on youtube, she's huge. So i'm sure you do she's going through exactly what i went through right now. I was just watching one of her videos where, like her hair, is just like breaking off everywhere, and it's literally exactly what my hair looked like like all of the hair up here and like back here, it just broke off. It was like two to three inches long. It looked like i had a mullet. I started wearing tape and extensions to kind of like blend it in and hide it, and it was just been like a disaster for so long. So for the past i don't know five six years i haven't gotten haircuts and i've been wearing extensions, but then, when covet happened and we all got quarantined, i just took my extensions out because it was expensive and a lot of maintenance for, like literally just being In the house plus, i had a new baby and now after like quarantining and like never doing my hair and everything like that. This is all my real hair again like i feel like. I finally have overcome that, like disaster of a hair moment that i went through and like this is all my real hair, no extensions everything is like normal and healthy. Like i said, i haven't even brushed it yet so hello, i think i got cut off in the middle of talking. I had to go downstairs and help chris with an email about our house. Now i need to microwave my coffee um. I also just put ren down before her first nap. It'S a little bit past 10 a.m, now so yeah just a very regular day over here today, besides the hair done last night, i also did my nails i put on a little bit of red gel nail. Polish um, i almost never do red. I always do like a light neutral color like what i do. My toes like. I always do that on my hands too, but i was feeling a little festive and fall and i went with red. Hawk is downstairs playing in the basement. I'M gon na go down there with him and see. If i can do some video editing while she's sleeping what is it? No, okay, there's your banana. I swear the only thing this kid says to me all day. Long is banana and snack here's uh the current situation, going on with her crib um. We had to lower her crib mattress because she figured out how to pull herself up. I still have all this donation stuff on my bed. I really need to take that and donate. I don't know if you should eat a banana upside down, but i think you should just sit on your bottom. Anyway. We had to lower the mattress and then once we did that this, like outlet right here that has her camera and her baby monitor plugged in um. It'S just like right at crib level. So we have it like angled against the wall so that she can't reach it, but like it's just ridiculous, this whole bedroom situation is just getting sillier and sillier, and i was really all about like okay, let's just put them in the same room. Have them share a room that was my plan because they both were at like a point where they were sleeping really good. Now, all of a sudden ren is waking up a bunch of times throughout the night again. So then, last night she woke up um and was up for almost an hour with me and chris both trying to get her to go back to sleep. So she finally fell back asleep around, like 12 30. me and chris went to sleep and then hawk woke up at around like 2 40 in the morning, just wailing he never ever wakes up in the middle of the night anymore. I like woke up and heard him crying, and i was so confused that he was crying, and so i went into his room and it was actually really funny because i went into the room and he was like hi knack: knock knock wawa voila, like 2 30. In the morning he's just like begging me for snacks and for water and saying hi, but so yeah. I like held him for a little while and kind of calmed him down, and then he fell back asleep and slept just fine, but i'm like dang it. I just need them both to sleep well, so i can put them together because otherwise, what would have happened if they were sharing a room and then he woke up screaming like they would have just been both awake. Ah, i just don't know and then i'm highly considering a slumber pot again so that we could just you know, put the slumber pod over the top of this crib, and then we could still sleep in here because she would be liking her sound. She would have her sun machine in there and everything and it would probably be okay and then that way that would block the outlet too. So i don't know it's just still such a thing. We honestly go back and forth about it constantly like do. We want to move her downstairs. Do we not it's not my number one thing. I really don't want her to be in the basement by herself, but we'll figure it out eventually or you know, maybe we'll just move before we ever figure it out. Wow big girl. I have these two laundry baskets my nails so cute. I need to put both of these laundry baskets away, so i'm going to do that really, quick! Hmm! We just had lunch and i completely forgot to show um what we were having for lunch. It was just really chaotic, um they're, both really hungry and really cranky um. I still ran in her chair. I cleaned her up and then just gave her more food because i really need to clean the kitchen and if i take her out of there, she's gon na try to crawl into the dishwasher and it's gon na be a whole thing. I made them some of these. These are the kid fresh chicken meatballs. They have really really good ingredients and they both like them. So that's super easy and i just made those in the air fryer on 350 for like seven minutes, it's like could not be easier and then we also had steamed carrots and strawberries. So that was an easy lunch. It'S 12 30 now i'll, probably put hawk down for his nap in like 15 minutes, but he is playing in the backyard right now with jasper, hey! Oh, your magnet yeah! Let'S keep the magnets in the house. Okay, oh we're! Not gon na watch blippi! Right now. Sorry do you wan na go drive your car, no, no, okay, gosh! Every time. I see my nails, i'm like dang mama. It is a beautiful day outside. Today, though, i think the high is 77, which is crazy, so i'm just letting him run around and play in the backyard. Well, he still can hey. Let'S leave the door open. Okay, i just put ran down for her nap. Hawk has been asleep for a little while now too. I know i've said this before, but his thing before, like sleep is he loves to throw everything out of his crib, so he normally sleeps with a pillow in a blanket but he'll like throw them both on the floor, while he's like trying to fall asleep. So i always like to creep back in there and like put his pillow and his blanket back in there for him, so that he can still be snug so that blanket there is to block the light from going into ren's room. Oh man, that is always so stressful, but i just want him to be cozy. I don't want him to get cold in there. Let'S see it's already. 1 30 jesus this day is going to be fast, but i'm going to put a tiny bit of makeup on. I'M not going to go crazy or anything because it is like late in the day. But since i'm going to that appointment, i just want to put like a tiny bit on and look a little bit put together, and i brought my computer in here so that i could have a show on. While i put my makeup on, i've been like very randomly watching, gilmore girls, i've actually never seen gilmore girls before i don't know how i like missed it when it was on tv, but i have never seen it. I had never even seen like a second of it last night, when i was doing my nails, i just clicked on netflix, so i could have something playing and it was the first show that came up. So i was just like. Let'S see what this is all about, i think i'm only on episode two, but i'd like to have a little something going on, while i'm like putting my makeup on or whatever, let me do a cute little transition before after. Oh such a dorky transition, i've been watching the show, and it is just like the dorkiest show ever it's so funny like how much tv has changed. Since this came out. I'M in the car heading into my appointment. I actually left a little bit earlier than i needed to, because i want to stop and grab something to eat on the way there i'll, probably just stop at starbucks but yeah. I'M starving - and i know i'm probably going to be here for a little while. So i just want to get a little smack or something another reason why i like really just don't like to get my hair done very often is i just hate how long it takes, and even though i don't have like a ton of hair, like my hair, Is not super thick or anything, it's super fine, and so it just takes so long, especially to do highlights. I grab my air pods so that i can put these in and listen to like a podcast or something while i'm getting my hair done, i'm one of those people who does not really like to chat. I just like to be quiet, especially now that i'm a mom like this peace and quiet during a hair appointment is like more important to me than ever. I'M not a small tug person. Okay, i just got here. I just absolutely slammed a starbucks sandwich. I don't know if slammed is like an appropriate word to use for a sandwich, but that's what it felt like. I really went in, but yeah here's a nice little before of my hair. I don't think i said earlier, but i'm getting a full highlight and then just like a cut, maybe just like a couple inches. I want it to be like really blunt with like a little bit of a little bit of texture uh jam, my air pods. In there i got a coffee. I don't know if i need to wear my mouse for now i'll just take it with um, yeah and i'll, see you guys when it's done. My hair still looks pretty good for, like literally not even brushing it a single time today. Okay, i'm back i'm done that took a pretty long time. I went in there at 3 30 and it is 5 50. So almost six, i guess that's not that bad um! I haven't even had like a chance to look at it, yet it looks pretty good. I have like the strangest personality where i'm like very picky, but i also just like don't care and i don't know how those both can like go together, but somehow they do it's also hard, because i you know used to do hair i've been to cosmetology school. I worked in salons for a long time, so i like know exactly what i want, but i don't like being the client who like tells you what to do so. I always just like. Let them do their thing. I would do it differently. I wish i could just take my own head off and do my own hair, but like i can't, but i do think she did a pretty good job um. It just got a little like chaotic there at the end, because her next client got there like. I think my hair took a lot longer than she was anticipating, and so her next client got there while like right after she had shampooed my hair and she still had to cut it and dry it. So i feel like she was getting like a little flustered and like rushed, which i like absolutely know that feeling it is so stressful when you have your next client like sitting there waiting for you and you're, not like even remotely close to being ready for them. I'M not so sure about the haircut. I guess we'll have to see it's a little bit more layered than i want, especially here in the front. I don't know it like looks kind of good, but also i just don't know i need to like go home and inspect it a little bit more, but i told her. I wanted like a very blunt cut with like a little bit of texture, which i guess this is it is it's definitely blunt hey guys it is the next day. I just realized that i literally didn't film a single other thing. Yesterday, after i left my hair appointment, i just got home, we had dinner uh and then we pretty much just rolled like right into bedtime, but we did have that hello, fresh meal. Let me grab it to show you um. This is the one we had last night: crispy kicking cayenne, chicken, cutlets um and it had broccoli and mashed potatoes and then here's that other one meatloaf, all a mom. This one had potato wedges and broccoli. I didn't realize that we got two meals that had broccoli as like the side um and i can't really eat broccoli anymore after my gallbladder removal surgery, yeah, it's so strange. Ever since i got my gallbladder removed. I have like such an intolerance to broccoli, and i am in so so much pain if i eat broccoli, which is a huge bummer, because it was like one of my favorite foods before when we had the meatloaf i was like well. Let me just try absolutely not immediately now, but everything else was great. So when we, the chicken when we had last night, was a little bit spicy sorry, i got a little interrupted bye. This one woke up from her nap anyway. All i was saying is that this recipe we made last night was pretty spicy, but it was very, very good. Ren is working on getting her like second top teeth right now, so she's not sleeping very well again. Well, she's, actually sleeping fine once she falls asleep. She sleeps through the night but just like initially kind of getting to bed is a little hard right now, but anyway hawk - and i just got back from his gymnastics class a couple of minutes ago and i think we're actually gon na try to go and take Some, like diy family photos a little bit later this afternoon, um. We did this last year too, there's a like park by our house. That is really pretty in the fall. It has like big, beautiful trees like and they're. All full of yellow leaves right now and so last year we all just went and set up a tripod, and like did some diy family photos, they actually came out like pretty good for doing them ourselves. So i think we're gon na go attempt to do the same thing again this year. I really need to just hire a professional photographer. I have so many friends who are like really amazing. Photographers, like i need to just set something up, but i don't know why it's like so hard for me to like arrange something like that and then i just start overthinking it and i like start overthinking outfits and like every little detail, like really isn't that important. So someday i'll get it together and do that, but for now we're gon na just try to do it ourselves, just um before all the leaves fall off the trees and i'm not really planning on vlogging today. So i'm just gon na wrap this up here. So, thank you guys so much for watching, don't forget to subscribe and follow us on instagram i'll see you guys all in our next video
