Self-Portrait Truthiness – Alternate Title: At Least You Can’t Smell My Breath

you are so awesome, lotus! i heart you.
that last picture is just beautiful. seriously.
and i need to do this challenge soon myself. btw, mine should also be titled that because my morning breath is enough to kill a horse.

Crunchy Domestic Goddess’s last blog post..U.S. mothers are dying. Why don’t we know that?

Yay, Lotus! You look good no matter what.

I haven’t technically done this, but I also kind of feel like I have because my self-portraits are pretty much never with any make up and pretty much exactly how I look, bad hair and all. In fact, my hair probably looks better right out of bed than it does all day

Still, maybe I’ll do this some morning. If not, I’m still glad you did.

lol I don’t have time to take pics of me in bed. Unless it’s before I go to sleep. lol. I’m usually jumping up as soon as I hear the baby cry. lol

Good job at keeping it real!

Ashley’s last blog post..To my husband…

hey, lotus, I did it too! except i stood up and put my glasses on so i could actually get a shot of my face(cause who wants to see the wall behind my head?)

I’ve been meaning to do this all week, I keep leaving my camera downstairs.

Or is that just an excuse…?

I hadn’t met Pattie. It’s nice to get acquainted with her.

amanda’s last blog post..Another Picture of My Husband in Drag

If I had a blog I would NEVER do this. wouldn’t want to scare away all my readers with my pillow creased cheeks and scarecrow hair, not to mention the slitted eyes trying to keep out the glare of daylight.

is it wrong to say I think I love you?

I think that my best and worst quality is that I look PRECISELY THE SAME.

doesnt bode well for my daytimelook but its pretty ok for my firstthinginmorninggrabbingtoddler appearance.

You know I totally *heart* you? Lets have babies together.

Veronica’s last blog post..Top Momma!!!

Good GRIEF! You are SO BRAVE! And that is exactly what I stagger out of bed looking like, execpt being about three decades older than you.

It’s too late for me to do anything about this today, but I can definitely participate tomorrow. The only thing I fear (cause I am at my most adorable in the AM-then it’s all down hill) is the flash. Cause I wake up while it is still dark. Wait a second, maybe that is why I look so cute hmmmmm…..

clickmom’s last blog post..NO! the origins story

Love the last shot – he he he, can’t look at you after last night!

wright’s last blog post..This Little Piggy

I’ll probably have to take only pictures of the back of my head…since I’ve never shown my full face. Does that count?

Ree’s last blog post..Which is Saddest?

Yay for keeping it real.I look scary in the morning-IMO you look fine *sticks tongue out at you*

I’m pretty impressed actually…no eye boogers or anything upon waking up is pretty good.

Lilacspecs’s last blog post..Wordless Wednesday – Gonna Grab Ya

Lotus, you look FINE even while waking moments!
If I ever had the guts to post my morning look, gosh! I’ll scare EVERYONE off my blog *lol*

napaboaniya’s last blog post..APAD #7 | WW(Wed Edition)

The size of certain anatomical features notwithstanding (legendary and otherwise), you are absolutely beautiful in the morning. I wish I was good enough an artist to then say “I’d like to paint you”.

Yay, Lotus!

And I remember Kevin and Leroy. That’s the first time I ever met you, I think.

Rawr!

It’s a well known fact that I love yer Pattie. Kevin and Leroy are cute but not nearly as sexy as Pattie.

But you my doll faced friend, well, you can climb into my bed any time. Just make sure you bring your um, TWINS, (heh heh) along.

As I just said to Sarah – Goon Squad..I’ll do one from vacation when it’s a relaxed face waking up.

MP’s last blog post..I’m Zook-Tastic!

drea’s last blog post..Wordless Wednesday – Backdrop Tester

If I looked as good as you the first thing in the morning I would do it. I, however, look like I am coming off a 3 day drunk, so I won’t be sharing. I have scared my family, they mention if I feel as bad as I look, I really should go back to bed. Of course they won’t let me. Go figure.

justmylife’s last blog post..It’s Raining Again……

I am so jealous of your eyebrows.
