You know, after having two kids, my beauty regime has changed drastically.  Instead of primping in front of my makeup mirrors, I find myself avoiding them at all costs. I used to be the girl that wouldn't even take out the trash without getting all dolled up first. Now, I wake up in the morning and barely manage to brush my hair and put it in a ponytail.

Even when I was working full time I spent minimal amount of time on my appearance for work. I now understand what it means to "let yourself go". In my case, I have placed my importance on other things, namely the kids. I just don't care how I look anymore because it seems I don't have anyone to impress anyway. Then I think, "poor Dave", he deserves to come home to someone who looks adorable everyday. I must start getting back into  beauty regime!

For you moms who might read this:  Have you found that you "let yourself go" after the kids were born?  Or do you spend just as much time primping as you did before?
