The many faces of motherhood
As a mom, I have many looks. There's the if-you-tell-me-this-dinner-looks-disgusting-I'm going-to-shove-it-in-your-ear look. There's the please-let-me-play-on-the-computer-for-five-more-minutes look. There's the what-the-devil-did-I-just-step-in look. And of course, there's the you're-so-cute-I-can-hardly-stand-it look.
I'm currently trying to perfect the why-would-you-do-what-you-just-did look. What do you think?

Yikes---it's making me feel guilty. So if that was the goal, you got it down:)
My why-would-you-do-what-you-just-did look is a lot more evil. But I think yours is the one to strive for.
Nice Beck, nice!
Well, I think it,s not bad, 'cause it's close to my "Seriously?" look. There needs to be a little more scrunching of the eyebrows. And a slight upward tug on one side of your upper lip. Then I think you've got it! A day's work done. Now you can go sit at the computer for 5 more minutes.
Awesome! Love it.
I think it's looking pretty good.
When I do this look, my eyes open really big. My kids say, "Don't give me big eyes, Mom!"
Pretty good. I think you need a touch more disappointment, though.
So I see you have the natural make-up going on, too. Or are you wearing some eyeshadow? I've got brown around my eyes like you do and people think I'm wearing make-up when I'm not (well, I always am, but I mean something besides mascara)
I think you look too bemused. It's amazing how children pick up on that.
I think lisaway and tonguu momma have the right idea. more meanness and disappointment make this the ultimate why-would-you-do-what-you-just-did face.
Or you could just go with Blue Steele. (until you finally perfect Magnum)
that strikes me as more of a "really, you think I'm gonna buy that lame excuse?" look... maybe with a tiny curl of the lip it'd be perfect!
You totally nailed it.
I feel like you're really disappointed in me...sniff sniff...
It's perfect :)
Ah, that's pretty darn mild. Not a look that could kill (like some of mine). Your hair is adorable!
no way. Way too sexy. You've really got to mean it up. Your eyebrows should be much more slanted and there should be some protruding blood vessels somewhere. I guess you're just not a mean mom. Nice try, though. :)
I think that looks like the "Please someone take me away from here!" look. At least it's the one I do to my hubby when I need to get away. Those puppy dog eyes! :)
I wish you were coming to Blogher and I could see those faces in person!
You are too cute! I can't imagine you ever looking upset or angry.
Cute hair! I know that has nothing to do with your post, but I still wanted to point out that I like your hair.
Okay, now that I have THAT out of the way, I think you've got your look down quite nicely!
I think you're really pretty.
Really, I DO! Perfect skin and Jolie lips. Tell your husband!
And looking at the picture makes me feel like I've made you very sad so I think it should work!
You nailed it. I might also call it the You-gotta-be-kidding or the I'm-not-buying-it-look!
I laughed out loud when I read the title and saw the picture - even before I read the post.
I think you're doing a great job!
That look is comparable to my "don't-think-about-touching-me-it's-not-gonna-happen" look. My "why-would-you-do-what-you-just-did" look is so much meaner. Maybe I should tone it down.
