Weekend AW pics

[Deleted]

Hi ladies!

Can I AW my weekend pics?
We did a lot of "divide & conquer" with the kids this weekend.  I don't know how people do it with more than 2, seriously.  You 3+ Mums deserve a medal.  I'm exhausted and need another weekend, LOL.

I had a girls' night with my BFF 
 


WTF sign?!  In the city.  New thing = parklets?!



Ran 5k with DS2 in the local reserve




Sushi Train with DS1, he was watching the salmon getting blow torched (a bit concerned!)

I love your hair in the first photo! How do you get texture like that? We have similar haircuts, but mine is always so flat and boring.

Do you have any idea what the parklet is?

Haha, thanks!
I think the parklet is a small area with one token tree that you can sit in.?  So weird!  

I wash my hair every 3 days and use dry shampoo in between and that fluffs it up a bit.  Plus it's winter here and dry, so I have lots of volume at the mo.  In the summer or when it's humid it's much flatter unfortunately.  I put mousse in the roots when I blowdry (with round brush) and then lots of hairspray after.  By Day 3 it really needs a wash from all that product

Great pictures! I was going to compliment you on your hair, it looks really good.

I'm impressed that Cruz likes sushi!

Cruz will eat anything, he is a very good eater.  DS2, not so much.  We're working on him! 

That said, sushi seems to be quite popular amongst the kiddie crowd.  After school you see all the kids in their uniforms sitting at the sushi places with Mum or Dad.  It's funny! esp. since most of my generation when we were kids had never even SEEN sushi.

I wash mine every three days also, and use dry shampoo like crazy, but I can't get texture! Do you spray the dry shampoo just in the roots or all over?

Seriously the best thing I ever did was use the dry shampoo at night before going to bed (just roots).  I used to do it in the mornings but I get much more body using it at night.  Then I brush it in the morning and put some oil/shine product on the ends to give it shine & texture. 

Like I said though, it's a good time of year for my hair - in summer it never looks like this

I'm glad you had a good weekend! I love the sushi craze sweeping Aussie youth :-)

[AndyCohen]

That looks like a wonderful setting for a run. And you are beautiful as always.

Awesome pics! Looks so fun

Great pics!! Thanks for sharing!

And I'm with you...I don't know how 3+ moms do it. I can see how we'd make it work with 2 pretty well, but it would get hairy with 3!

Love the pics!
