Then I went and messed up the stylist's hard work by pulling it back in a pony for my run. Here's the gross, sweaty version:
As the sytlist was cutting my hair, she noted that some of my hair that I lost post-baby was now growing back in those short, whispy wings. I told her it was pretty terrifying to see so much hair fall out (about 4-5 months after Norah was born, my hair was shedding like crazy -- seriously, it was a bit worrisome), and she told me that she'd seen some women who had lost whole chunks of hair post-baby! Ack!Anyway, this conversation led to her asking about Norah and what kind of hair Norah has, which just made me laugh because...well...you've seen Norah; she doesn't have much hair:
She told me not to worry, that Norah's hair will grow in eventually. I again had to laugh at this because it's never worried me. When I was a baby, I too had just fine, barely-there-hair and it wasn't until I was well into toddlerhood that it started to really grow, and even then, according to my mom it "came in all weird." Example, here I am at about 20 months old: Barely any hair up there! And, I have to agree with my mom: It looks a little weird.
Thankfully, by the time I entered kindergarten, my hair was perfectly normal.
So, I'm sure Norah's hair will eventually grow in. And, then -- if she wears it long -- I hope she pulls in back in a pony for running :)

If you know Jamoosh, you know I am diggin' on the pony tail. The actual cut looks good too. But...
I was amazed at how much hair fell out a few months after each kid...it was scary!!! Both of mine were born with a ton of hair though. Your haircut looks cute!
I'd forgotten about my hair falling out, but it was crazy (and I have a lot of hair to begin with...let's just say we went through a fair amount of Draino for awhile there).
Love the baby pix (all of them).
Nice haircut! And the pic of you in kindergarten is adorable.
I like the new cut! BR-before running. And the cute pictures of u when u were little.
Jess, your haircut looks so nice!! As always Norah is so very cute.
Cute flashback pics! And your hair looks great... freshly styled OR in a pony.
Ahhhh hair ... my babies have all been baldies, my poor 11yo still has very fine, blonde hair ... it has never been totally cut, just trimmed and is still only mid backish length :) You have a cute baby there, who cares about hair? LOL
Your hair looks great too.
love the cut. I need to cut mine too.
Little Jess - love it! What a cutie you were... and are - love the cut. :)
cute new cut!
Great hair cut!
It's so funny...it seems that every time I just had my hair styled by a professional, I would have to mess it up by working out, swimming, etc. Glad I'm not the only one! But your hair looks great in ponytail and without!
My kiddos were baldies for a long time! And post preggo I lost loads of hair but then again I have enough to spare.
Cute childhood pics!
Aww! Love this post! Your hair looks great at all stages of your child and adulthood!
Love the hair cut! Makes me want to go out and get mine cut.
a great school picture, it looks just like you!
As always, I'm so envious of your fabulous bookshelves too :)
The little Jess pics are adorable! Nora totally looks like you! Cute hair cut - but now I'm freaked about loosing hair after a baby! Another thing to worry about! LOL!
nice! I didn't know about this hair falling out thing. That's ummmm, weird. Norah is a cutie with or without hair :-)
I love the hair cut. I have been toying around with cutting mine but haven't done it yet - maybe you will inspire me to get it done!
love the new hair cut - you look the same as kindergarten!!
Hahha...I love the throw back pics! Eli has no hair really, I don't think it will be filling in for quite some time either...
I love your haircut! I got mine cut yesterday and told the stylist not to even bother putting anything in it, because I was heading straight to the park to run. I didn't get to see the finished product until after my shower later in the evening. I never knew losing hair came along with having kids. I'm glad I've been warned, so I will not freak-out as much when the time comes.
Cute cut and I totally love the other pictures!
Good Looking Haircut! Norah pics are great! I am getting a hair cut this weekend. I might just get some pre and post hair cut pics since I am going from what I consider long hair for me to short and spikey! I feel like I might actually lose a pound of hair after it is all said and done :)
