It's Thanksgiving!!

Hey Lovelies!

The awesome day of cooking all day, family and friends gathered around the table, some traveling or already out of town, Whatever it is your doing, don't forget to stop and be thankful for everything in your life.

I have so much to be thankful for. Starting with my awesome kids who never stop to give me a break, I cannot ever seem to go to the bathroom or take a shower by myself, but they make my day with the small things they do from hugs and kisses, to the laughs that make me laugh. My house would be clean, empty, and quiet without them. Especially my furbaby Pandora she has been such a blessing to us and so helpful!

I am thankful for my husband. He isn't a 100% perfect but if he was life would be pretty boring. We don't get along all the time but all the great times seem to make the few bad times disappear. He tries his hardest to do right by me and that makes him pretty damn close to perfect to me! :)

My family and in-laws. They help out so much when we need it and we would be lost without them. With 3 kids and 2 working even the smallest things help so much and we would be in total destruction without them.

Today I do not have to cook. Which I am also thankful for who doesn't like the holidays where the other family members do all the cooking and there are no dishes to really do.

I do on the other hand have so many stuff I am cooking. With a little help from Law of Attraction and my dream board this time next year I will be doing the cooking and hosting of the holidays in our new home. This year it was kind of hard to do that with the whole family in a 2 bedroom apartment.

Everyone enjoy your Thanksgiving, enjoy the food, the time together, safe travels to the ones who will be traveling back home! Definitely stop to remember everything you are Thankful for :)

HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO ALL!

My new favorite beauty item that my kids enjoy too!

Hey lovelies,

So I have the worst acne issue ever and dry skin in patches on my face when winter hits. It's embarrassing for me because the acne is small but there are tons in one spot and its always under my eyes and on my cheeks, chin and neck. I also have the worst problem with acne on my chest and back. My really bad dry skin is a patch on the corner of my nose and also one in the outer corner of my left eye.

My kids also have really bad dry skin on their shoulders and legs.

I have been searching and searching for an antibacterial soap for all of us that would be great for the acne and dry skin. I know dial had some body wash but for some reason every store I went into no longer has the antibacterial dial body wash.

I trailed down the beauty aisle thinking something had to be here to help. I usually don't buy things down the skin care aisle because I love Aveda products they are the best thing in the world. I also have done my research and found that more people have issues from a lot of drugstore skin care brands because even some name brand items are made to break out your skin the longer you use them, so you buy their products more often.

I came across Cetaphil brand portion of the skin care and found the antibacterial soap bars and figured why not. It was $9 for a pack of 3. From the first time I used it I instantly felt an amazing difference. My skin felt clean, soft, and taken care of. Like the soap was meant for my skin.

My acne was instantly less inflamed and red. Bonus is it took my make up off amazingly with no traces of anything. The soap is extremely creamy and moisturizing. i used it on my kids and they cannot get enough of it. They will grab it and hand it to me first thing when they get into the tub.

The dry patches are not all the way gone but it has definitely improved it as well as calmed the redness from the patches as well. It smells AMAZING, like I said my new favorite beauty product my acne from head to toe has went from embarrassing to maybe one or 2 here and there.

I highly recommend this heavenly product and I myself will be buying more from this brand.

The only down fall to this is that for naturally dry skin types it is not extremely moisturizing you do need to put a moisturizer meant for dry skin on after it but it does help it a lot in putting some moisture back in it.

I'M BACCCCCCCK!!!!!!

Hello Lovelies!

I know it has been quite some time that I haven't posted anything. I have been taking blogging boot camps and seminars to make sure I make this the best it can be. I love that I started this blog but I know that it wasn't all it needed to be.

On top of that I have exciting news... I have also taken some time away because all the schooling I told you guys about in my post College and Babies, paid off. I am ecstatic to say I am a full time working mom. I got a job at my local Cardiology Specialist Office here that is affiliated with one of our local hospitals.

To say the least it has been extremely hard juggling a work life, bettering my blog life, fixing a marriage that was, to say the least, in a rough patch and falling apart, a mom life, and keeping our home tidy and in one piece.

Working has been amazing I get out of the house, I have an office to myself, even though it's work I get quiet time away from the screaming of kids, because I work at a medical office I get free lunches so it saves us some money. The main thing I love is the benefits. My son is doing much better with his speech thanks to a wonderful daycare and daycare owner is the best!

My marriage has been better because I am not stuck in the house with my only conversations being with a 5 year old and her imagination HAHA. I am also bringing in more money and we are not aggravated from struggling and living paycheck to paycheck with only enough money to make it by we have that little extra bit for fun things and able to start crossing off our need's and wants lists.

But, with all these fabulous things there are downfalls... BUM BUM BUUUUUUM. Sorry dramatic effect.

I have only had 1 half paycheck and 1 full paycheck from my job, so of course our bills are backed up and slowly being caught up. As great as daycare is and helping my kids SOOO much it does cost a lot to have 2 children in daycare and this is the most affordable, wonderful, clean in-home daycare I have seen and my kids LOVE the owners and her family because her family helps her out with the daycare.

The daycare (mind you I said most affordable) costs us $1,000 a month. Which is a great price especially considering it is clean, safe, and amazing people work there who truly love and care about the children when there was a place that was an academy was $875 per child, with over $500 extra in costs. My son being ADHD and extremely hyper he did not have the behavior skills to go there.

It has been a struggle being away from my babies, it's been a struggle to pay bills for right now because all jobs cost you in the beginning but pay off as time goes on, I love my job, I won amazing Younique pigments from one of those online parties so definitely do that if you have the chance, I have so much more for you guys thank you for those who have been patient with me :D

Oh yeah and I dyed my hair black! Why.? The red was so gorgeous!! Yes, unfortunately my job doesn't approve of those bright colors on hair so I had to change it. Career Career Career and helping my family was a sacrifice I was willing to make :)
