This poor kid is wondering where his hair went. Ha! I’ve seen and heard about this hair loss that babies go through but our baby has his in male pattern baldness fashion. My mom told me that big foreheads in Korea mean good fortune. Remember the thick leg “luck” she shared with me? Any flaw can be whipped into a golden fortune. Well, except for thin earlobes. No hope for those people.
Blogging? Well, I live in a chair down by the river. No really, I live in a brown leather chair with ottoman in our living room, breastfeeding the baby for 30 hours a day with only one hand free at a time. Hey, do you see that chub? Yes, I’ll take credit for that. Hey, he was super skinny a few weeks ago and that mini double chin is a testament to me, the Dairy Queen.
Romance? I saw that it was National Kissing Day on Instagram yesterday (which I check about 14 times a day and I’m the one who likes your photo 3 minutes after you post it) so I wanted to participate and have a moment.
Why am I so happy? Each day I put zero to one expectations on myself (just feed the baby and maybe write a thank you card) . Plus wonderful friends and family visit with smiles and food! I need to take more photos of everyone. Thank you! This makes us feel less like bridge trolls! We take daily walks and every couple of days we even eat at a cafe down the street.
Do you ever have days where you take all the pressure off yourself and throw to-do lists aside? I’m trying it for 3 months.
Happy Monday!! See you in a week!

Christina Warren says
Thanks, Jenn! I’m somehow just allowing this slow pace and that makes it doable! Life is grand, just snailish!
Olivia says
I’ve missed you and your little family! Great to catch up this afternoon. 😉
Christina Warren says
Thank you, Olivia! One post a week has been fun. A friend with 2 kids came over today and showed me that I have it easy! What a paradigm shift!!!
Abby says
I love hearing that you’re so happy!! Your little mister is just the cutest and those thigh rolls- adorbs!! 🙂 Have a great week girl!!
Christina Warren says
Thank you, Abby! When is he going to start talking and complimenting me on my outfits? Lol for now he’s my comix relief with goofy faces. I appreciate it. Ha!

Oh his hair will come. My mom said it took awhile before my hair grew in as a baby and she was so worried that she even started rubbing brandy on my head to stimulate growth. Don’t ask, I think it’s some weird Chinese thing. I have pretty thick hair now btw 🙂 Anyhow Grant’s a cutie either way. Chub somehow works on him ;p

Christina Warren says
Oh yes!!! Brandy!!! Love this! Ok my mom told me to shave his head so it will be thicker and look good as it all comes in together. I’m afraid when I just clip his nails so no razor is getting near that noggin. By the time I have my 10th baby, I’ll be marinating and shaving for sure!! Lol thank you!
Chelsea says
He is just so so cute…hair or no hair 🙂
Christina Warren says
Bahahaha. He’s already making me laugh- the best I could hope for in my baby! Lol. Thank you’!
Andreea Belc says
I plan on doing this when my baby comes in November. I really think it helps focusing just on the little one and on your family. Enjoy the time!
Christina Warren says
Oh yes, everyone is so different! It’s easy for me to get caught up in,”she was back to work like 2 days after having her seventh kid,” kind of stuff. I’m just like proud if I showered and got a walk in. 🙂

Sounds wonderful. I can’t wait to be in that place.
PS: I’m a little offended that you don’t like my photos 3 minutes after I post them. 😉
Christina Warren says
I better get on that! Lol it’s so great to have that connection to the world. I’m looking forward to seeing your journey!
Jen Kleiner says
Hey Dairy Queen! I laughed out loud at this post! Love your little baldy (and you).
Christina Warren says
Oh an LOL from you is precious. Thank you! Also thank you for being Mother Theresa and tending to our every need. PS Two bit cupcakes….some sort of joke!? Lol
Becca Dorr says
hair or no hair, he is adorbs.
Christina Warren says
Bahaha. Thank you. A friend said her daughter had the same hairline and it’s a lot easier when this happens to a boy. Lol. I love it. Still laughing.
Rebecca @ Hello Creative Blog says
The look on his face! Love it!
Christina Warren says

The Grits says
