The mail came today.....

Hi Loves :-) How was your Monday? I hope yours was better than mine, lol. I'm in a pretty frustrated mood at the moment which is why I haven't made a youtube vid today. I was planning on making one showing all the great stuff I got in the mail. Maybe I still will. We shall see. Anyways, I ordered from 8ty8Beauty on January 12th and received it today, January 18th. Everything came packaged nicely and nothing was damaged. I didn't realized how many pinks I got out of the 12 China Glaze polishes I bought, lol. But, they are all slightly different pinks so it's ok :-)

I also ordered what I thought was a WALL nail polish rack but ended up ordering the table display >:-/ I will try to call them tomorrow to see if an exchange is possible. Hopefully they're reasonable. Here is my entire nail polish collection on the mentioned table display.

I also ordered some things from Mario Badescu on the same day and received them today aswell. I didn't get much this time around. Just a body lotion and body soap with the 3 samples you always get with every order. I'm so excited to try these out because I have Keratosis Pilaris on my upper arms. It has gotten much better over the past years but I think it can still improve. I read great reviews on the lotion and soap I ordered so I'm hopeful :-)

That's it for now guys. I hope you have a great week and I'll keep you posted on how well the Mario Badescu products work out. I won't be able to paint my nails with my new polishes till after I have my baby so that will have to wait. Love u guys! Muaaahh!!!

TEXT 90999

Hi Loves. I'm sure by now you've all heard about what's happened to Haiti. Honestly, I'm upset at myself for not having posted this sooner. Haiti is in a state of great need and The Red Cross has set up a way for you to donate thru texting "Haiti" to 90999. When you do that, it automatically charges $10 to your phone bill. That $10 goes to the people suffering in Haiti. If you can spare $10, PLEASE donate it. They need it more than we could ever imagine.

Thank you guys!!!

I'm having a BOY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm Finally havin' a Boy!!!!!!!!!!!

More Storage Ideas!

How could I almost forget! I bought these great earring holders from Ebay and I LOVE them! I had to share this with you guys cuz I know a lot of woman out there struggle with organizing their ever growing jewelry :-) So here ya go!

They're pretty easy to install if you know how to use a drill and they come with the nails you need. If you don't want to drill them on the wall, you can use the enclosed stands to set it up on your dresser, etc. Here's the ebay store I bought them from for $14.99. Hope this helps you out :-)

Makeup Storage!

I hope everyone's Christmas & New Years was the best! I missed you guys :-) So, like I've previously mentioned, I have barely been wearing any makeup lately so that's why I haven't posted new YT vids. However, it was driving me crazy that all my makeup was just stored in my makeup case. I always had to jumble through it to get what I needed no matter how I organized it in there. I couldn't take it anymore so I FINALLY decided to do something about it, lol. I ended up buying this for my bathroom, since the only real drawback to our house is small bathrooms:-(

And then I had to figure out a way to fit all of this into that

After a trip to Wal*Mart, this is what I came up with

I'm SOOO happy with the results! It makes it a million times easier to do anything with my makeup. Maybe this will spark some new looks! I'm already feeling an itch to wear makeup again, lol. We now have one of these cabinets in all 3 of our bathrooms so I'm pretty excited about that. I'm also really excited about my doctor's appointment on Jan 7th!!! I am DYING to know wether I'm having a boy or girl. & I'm almost 17 weeks so they should def. be able to see what it is by now. Hopefully my ultrasound will be scheduled asap. That's pretty much it for now, guys so I'll holla @ cha in a bit! Loves ya!!!

13 Weeks & Counting!

Hey Loves! It's been another while since my last post, I haven't even turned my laptop on in like a week,Lol. I hope all is well with everyone :-) I had a doctor's appointment today that went well & I'm now 13 weeks pregnant! We're so excited & hoping that on Dec. 16th's ultrasound, we'll be able to see the baby's gender! *crossing fingers*We want our lil' boy!!! That's about all the exciting news with that, so far so good :-) I'm starting to show a lil bit which is kinda freakin me out(not ina bad way,lol) because I didn't show till I was 6 months with my 2 daughters. We shall see how big I get this time around. Hopefully it won't be too hard to lose all the weight & get back to my normal weight of 145 lbs. (I'm 5'7 w/curves that I love!) & my 26 inch waist. I haven't seen my normal weight since having my 2nd daughter cuz we were planning to get prego shortly after her arrival. Back then my goal was to get to a 24 inch waist, those last 2 inches were stubborn,lol. We'll see how it goes this time around. I'll more than likely take you guys for the ride!

I'm sorry for the lack of youtube vids lately. I honestly have probably worn makeup like 2-3 times over the last few months. I go through these phases where I lose interest in a lot of the materialistic things in life. Makeup is beautiful & it's art, but I really enjoy natural, unaltered beauty as well. So, yeah, it's just been eye cream, moisturizer, & clear eyebrow gel for me these days, lol. I'll be makin' a vid for you all soon, but am unsure of what it will be about. I hope you all are having a beautiful Christmas season & I hope you all get a chance to decorate! It really adds to the wonder of Christmas & makes me feel great when I do :-) I'll talk to you all soon! :-) MMMUUUAAAHHHHH!!!!!!!

Here's the Christmas lights we put up this year. It's our 1st Christmas in our 1st house so it's very special to us.

Happy Holidays, guys!!!!

Today was THE BIG DAY!...well, 1 of them, lol

Hi Loves! How are you guys? I hope everyone is feelin' happy on this beautiful Tuesday evening :-) We just got home from my doctor's appointment & from a lil' grocery shopping. My appointment went GREAT! Turns out I'm 8 & 1/2 weeks pregnant!!!!! Which is pretty crazy considering I took 4 pregnancy tests at home and they were all negative back in the end of September. And, they tested me at my doctor's appointment back on Oct. 7th & that one was negative as well. I kept telling my family & my doctor that I felt pregnant (I've had 2 children already, I kinda know my body by now,lol). My husband believed me but no one else did. Well, there it is! 8 & 1/2 weeks pregnant and counting!!! We were hoping for twins, but there was only 1 lil peanut in there, lol. With a very strong heartbeat, might I add :-) Overall my appointment went great, the nurse said that everything looked perfect, including the baby :-) We're so excited! This is our first planned pregnancy! Oh and FYI, the pregnancy tests that are sold @ the $0.99 Store are THE EXACT SAME ONES that are used at your doctor's office. How do I know this, you ask? Cause my doctor and my nurses told me. So, don't waste $10-$20 of your hard earned money on a pregnancy test @ Wal*Mart & etc. Just head on over to the Dollar Store and your good to go! I do suggest that you always always always buy more than one test so that your certain. My case is a very rare one & it's never happened to me before. Well, I'll keep you guys posted and thank you for following my blog! Hello to all my new followers *hugs* See you soon! :-)

Guess What?!?!?!?!??!?!?!?!

I have exciting news for you guys! If you follow me on Twitter or caught my last youtube vid, then you already know. But for those that haven't.................I'M PREGNANT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yeah, I'm a lil' excited ;-p I found out on Halloween! We had only been trying for the past 3 months and voila! lol, we're hoping for a boy, but of course the MOST important thing is that our baby is healthy :-) You guys, I am SO EXCITED! And, so is the Hubby! My Doctor's appointment is on Nov. 17 so that's when I'll find out how far I am! I'm thinkin' I'm about a month and sum change, but we shall see. I'm so happy :-) Momma loves her babies!

Edit: My doctor's office called me and scheduled an ultrasound appointment for Nov.10th!!!

Hey HEY Hey!!! Missed u!

Wut stole my heart....

My Looooooovvvveessss!!!!! I've missed you! How have u all been? Are u followin' me on Twitter yet? :-) Follow me so we can stay in closer touch! I have a confession to make. I'm in love again and it's not with my husband. Let me elaborate. I'm in love with my GHD Pure flat iron, my Clarisonic, Mario Badescu products & The Body Shop. *Phew*So, don't kill me,k? lol Laaaadies! These are my top 4 products right now! Ch-ch-check it out *singin*.....

This beauty right here is the Clarisonic Mia ($149). It's a facial cleaning brush that oscillates 300 times per

second. It cleans your face 6 times deeper than traditional cleansing and is basically...the bombest thing ever, lol :-) This is the travel size (that's why it's cheaper). After I use this my skin feels incredibly soft and clean. It is glowing like no ones business. I've already seen my pores get smaller and smaller! I love it and it's much cheaper than the full size version. But the brush head is the same size as the full size one. This comes in white & pink (of course,I have the pink one;-) and you can get it from Sephora or Clarisonic.com. I got mine from Sephora & part of the proceeds from this supports Breast Cancer Awareness!

I recently went through about a jillion different samples of moisturizers from Sephora & ditched my old Nuetrogena in search of the right one for my changing skin. That pretty much sucked:-(cuz nothing really worked for me. So, I read about Mario Badescu stuff & saw great reviews on it. Then I found out that I could get free samples!!! So, I did and it worked great for my skin. I got a few different things in full size that I didn't have samples of (needed spf & stuff) and I LOVE IT!It's really making my skin feel great and I love how natural they're products are! I will never put anything else on my face again. Their price point doesn't hurt either, literally :-)

Isn't that sexy? This is the best lookin' flat iron I've ever seen....ever. Lol. If ya'll haven't yet noticed, I research everything before I buy it. It's become a helluva habit, actually! And, people cannot stop raving about this flat iron. I have wanted this thing for so damn long, but the price was killin me! So, I waited on getting it and got the CHI instead & I liked it alot...a whole lot. But, it didn't straighten my hair completely and it didn't do anything for humidity resistance. So I finally decided on getting this & searched my way around to find some discounts. I ended up getting mine from Folica.com for $229! Which is still expensive but better than spending $270 which is what everyone else is selling it for(and I mean everyone)! This flat iron leaves my hair like literal silk, doesn't fry my hair, makes my hair resist humidity like none other, heats up crazy fast, & will automatically shut off if it isn't used for 30 straight minutes. And, it looks GREAT. The packaging is amazing & it comes with an instructional DVD!

*sigh* Just lookin' at this picture makes me feel soft and cozy. I am so hooked on this body butter, it's crazy. I was using Sephora Brand body butter, which was nice. And, I was using "Bliss" Body Butter before that, which was pricey but nice. But, honestly, neither of the 2 compare to this one. The Sephora one would always leave an oil slick behind & the Bliss one wouldn't last that long. This one not only absorbs quickly, but it doesn't leave any residue, smells soooooo great, and it actually LASTS! I'm now using this daily, paired up with The Body Shop's Olive body wash & their coconut body scrub. My skin feels so luxuriously soft that even my Husband noticed

:-)Ladies, you already know that's a great feeling, right there:-)It's also cheaper than the Bliss body butter & although it's also cheaper than the Sephora one, the Sephora one comes with more ounces of product. The Body Shop is also a really great company to buy from (you should google it!). Will I be using any thing else on my skin? Probably never, unless my skin magically becomes allergic to great stuff.

Until next time, Ladies! Thanks for slidin' through and showin' ya girl some love! Love u guys!
