Feeling "beautifully you" after having a child is tough. Your body is put through so many changes but your ability to take care of your children, your house and yourself seem to be impossible. After having Carter I put myself to the side and filled all of my time with my son and household duties. Why? Because I felt that taking care of myself was too much effort!
I was never the girl who took hours to get ready for school each morning or for church on Sundays, I didn't put my makeup on flawlessly and follow all the latest trends and I certainly didn't own a beautiful stash of jewelry. I've always envied those woman but it just wasn't "me".
After I had Carter my husband brought up that he could see that I was taking "less care of myself than usual" (i.e. not even making the effort to get dressed everyday) and he was worried that I wasn't loving myself. He was right. Living in a world where everyone but yourself takes over your time isn't healthy, and I knew that needed to change.. but I knew I still wasn't the mom who was going to spend hours on myself each day. I wanted convenience with beauty, and that's just what I got.
LouLou Lollipop specializes in statement teething jewelry that is both functional and unique! This was exactly the cure that I needed. I knew that I couldn't go spend money creating a collection of jewelry that was only to be broken by my kiddos, I was a little too late on that train. But teething jewelry? Jewelry that looks wonderful and allows my son to tug and pull and benefits him in the long run? That was my cure all!
My happy middle ground was now attainable! I was able to find outfits that were flattering and make myself look "put together" by adding these statement pieces without having to worry about my son ruining them. Just like everything else in our home, my jewelry is just better off baby proofed until all of our kids are out of the pulling stage. Jewelry that not only makes myself feel beautifully me but helps my kids through the extremely hard stages of teething, it just doesn't get any better!
Seeing your child teeth is not easy, seeing yourself not being taken care of isn't easy either. Accomplish both with beautiful teething jewelry!
