About Roofresh

My name is Kelsey, not Roofresh, but Roo IS my nickname. I live in the Phoenix area with my husband and we are having fun being newlyweds and going on crazy adventures together. We like finding new hangouts, food, art, music and friends; so that's pretty much what my blog is about. You'll find a bit of fashion, design, nutrition and family sprinkled throughout my content, or anything else that catches my eye at the moment. My blog has changed a lot over the last year, but you'll see that it's really just a record of our lives together; our public journal.

Meet Baby Zoe, I'm a Bad Blogger, Lactation Seminar

I acknowledge that I have not been a very good blogger this week, and I'm going to transfer the blame. I recently blogged about my nutrition background and how I work for WIC and this week I have been in all day lectures about breastfeeding and infant feeding. It's a week-long seminar put on by a wonderful team and lead by Molly Pessl BSN, IBCLC. If you don't know IBCLC stands for International Board Certified Lactation Consultant, and it's a VERY difficult certification to obtain. When I tell people about it usually their first response is "what could you possibly talk about for a whole week!" I assure them that there is PLENTY to talk about and if you are a mom who has breastfed I'm sure that you agree (or any mom for that matter). My thoughts on it are, if I can spend four years on a degree for adult nutrition which barely scathed the surface of lactation, a week doesn't even seem like enough for infants/breastfeeding! I am learning a lot though and it's extremely fascinating.

With that said, I have been dog-tired every day after getting home and mentally drained! I should have prepared a little better and scheduled posts for this week ahead of time, but sometimes I'm a fly by the seat of my pants blogger. So I want to leave you with a tad bit of visual fun, and somewhat baby related. My niece Zoe was born on the 5th of this month and Jim and I went down that weekend to meet her. Here are some of the photos!

I will return next week with another "Things that are Good for You" post as well as the next "Fashion Cambio, Blogger Edition." Thanks for your patience!

Zoe Mae! I'm not really sure why my eyes look so big in this picture ha ha
She's a sweet sleeper

Big brudder Asher
I don't know why my brother or Jim didn't make it into any pictures, maybe it's because we were the ones holding Zoe?!? Anyway, we're so blessed to have a new little niece, and can't wait to see her grow!

Keep it real,

Roo

Hair History

So again you might have noticed that I changed a lot on my blog. I've been annoyed lately because every time I would look at my page it has looked so cluttered! Ahhhh, I feel much better now, but I'm still looking for things to nix in order to clean up. :) Anyway, while looking through old pictures on my computer to change my look, I was reminded of all of the times I changed my hair color-I guess my blog was not the only thing I got antsy with! I thought that it was a little comical so I decided to share some of the transition pictures from brunette to blonde. 


Enjoy.

This was when I was really dark, almost black-you can barely see my hair! 

{Asher and me}

I figured that my hair was looking too dark, plus I had to dye my roots every few weeks to cover up my blonde the was growing in so I added some highlights...

{My Easter baskets-yes two-from Jim one year}

So after Jim and I got engaged, it went into hyper drive to switch from odd, in between hair color to blonde for engagement and wedding pictures.

So as you can see I've made a lot of changes over the last 2 years, not just the hair either! Engaged, graduated and married! I hope you enjoyed my little transformation of hair history, as well as the transforming of my blog.
