Okay, so this afternoon I was folding a load of Zeke's laundry, and as I was pressing out all the wrinkles and searching for any missed stains I found myself admiring his very cute, very stylish wardrobe. Last week I had pulled down the last of he's 9-18 month clothes I had packed away from his baby shower, so most of what I was folding was new.  As I continued folding I realized something that struck me like a ton of bricks, I realized that my 9 month old son dresses better then I do!!!  My 9 month old baby, who could care LESS what he wears, has more style then ME!  Then I started thinking, well of course he does!  Every time I go to the store, I buy him something. Every morning when we wake up, I get him changed and dressed, brush his hair and wash his face.  But what do I do for my self...... NOTHING!  I consider myself lucky if I get a shower everyday, and I never make time for style or primping.  While I think my son deserves more then me, I don't think I should just let myself go. I remember watching "What not to wear" on TLC before I had Zeke, and it was about a mom who had totally lost all her personal style after she had her 1st baby.  I remember thinking that I never wanted to be like that, I never wanted to stop caring about ME.  Yes my son is my priority, he's my love, and I would gladly (and DO) give up everything to him, but my goodness I need some frinking help.  Does anyone relate?  he,he,he....
