New Baby

22 Oct

I haven’t posted since June!  Unbelievable!  My life is crazy, unpredictable and overwhelming!  A two and a half year old and a newborn is wild!  My life is complete insanity…. flying by the seat of my pants, moment to moment living!  I never know what one of my kids is gonna do or need.  My hair is falling out in gobs, I can’t sleep because I worry about everything, I am behind on EVERYTHING, my daughter sh*ts through all of her outfits, my son has a constant cold from daycare, I work full time yet am leaving early constantly because of my kids, I drink vodka every night once baby is asleep, I just want to watch the bachelor…

 

Here is my new angel that is worth the struggle-

Love and peace!

Baby Girls Accessory Wall

29 Jun

I covered an old canvas that I had with some super cute fabric. I just simply used a hot glue gun to get the fabric to stick, so it was really easy and quick!

Then, one of my amaz girlfriends put together the white picture frames with ribbons for holding accessories as a gift at my baby shower!

And my final touch was two cute wall hooks from Land of Nod for her coats, hats, scarves, etc. For now, the hook will hold the Boppy pillow.

Blueberry almonds: My husband ate the almonds in .5 seconds, so I am just going to assume that those are delicious! LOL!  Or maybe he was starving??  Probably a little of both!

ProFoot Pedi-Rock: I gave this a whirl the other night in the bath and it worked really well!  Its much easier to use because its not as hard as a pumice stone.  This product is more of a soft scrub and it fits in your hand nicely due to the shape.  I will try it a few more times and keep you updated!

Playtex Tampons:  I am pregnant, so I wont be able to give you any info on these for quite some time.  🙂

Easter!

5 May

Well, here I am out of the depths of two sicknesses while pregnant!  I wish that horrible stomach bug upon no one!  Not even my worst enemy!  Wooosh, that was insane!  And my hubs got it too.  Ok, I am done!

 

Easter is my 2nd favorite holiday next to Christmas!  I love decorating eggs, getting my son a cute new outfit, hiding eggs, Easter bunny pics, etc.!  I love all things Easter!  Here are some of my paper mache’ eggs that I decorated with my mom and her bff.  One before pic and one after.  We painted a couple coats on each egg and then glued various gems, bling and sticker strips to them.  Some we left plain as well.

Happy late Easter! XO

Mattress Money

25 Mar

Mattress Money

Do people still use the term ‘mattress money?’  Well, at our house, we do!  We started adding $50 a week to our money jar in January and will attempt to continue through the end of the year!  The budget will be squeezed after baby #2 comes around the end of June, but we will do our best to continue through December.  By the end of we should have $2,600 in our jar for a vacation!

You should try it too!

Acure Brightening Facial Scrub

5 Mar

IMG_2103 IMG_2105

This face scrub is amazing!  Its bright green because it has sea kelp and chlorella in it to help with cell growth.  Its very exfoliating, yet gentle.  I put it straight on my Clairisonic scrub brush and go!  My face feels super clean and soft when I use it!

Fabric Covered Cork Board

7 Jan

I covered a cork board in some fabric for my mom for Christmas.  I used furniture nails to nail down the fabric and give it the upholstery nail look.  After I was done with the nails, I hot glued the fabric to the back of the board.  I think it turned out great and my mom loves it!  Such a quick cute gift idea!

Black Sequin Ugg’s

Black sequin Ugg's

 

B in Ugg's

 

Yes, I have love for Ugg’s!  So my hubs got me the black sequin mid calf style and I am in love!  So comfy and cozy and not boring!  Of course my son had to give them a whirl too!  They provide more support that I thought an Ugg boot would and feel way more sturdy than I expected, which is a nice surprise.
