Mommy and Me Makeup For the Win
This post is in partner with Just Like Mommy Cosmetics. All thoughts and opinions are my own. Please visit my disclaimer page for more information. My kids have always been curious about my make-up and have gotten into it more times than I can count. For this reason, I’ve had to start keeping it in zipped bags in the top of my closet so no “mishaps” go down. There’s nothing worse than buying a brand new palette or lipstick and seeing it ruined at the hands of a toddler who just wanted to be like mama. To make matters worse, it crushes their spirits when you get upset and fuss…

SURPRISE!
We are having another baby! Each one of us is so excited about adding to our family and even more excited that the secret is out. Derrek and I found out about this pregnancy before we left for our Glamping trip a few months ago! As surprised as we were, we knew that we were going to have a fourth child one day so it has been very exciting since we knew! Y’all, babies are my weakness and I know that having children is chaotic but it’s the perfect dang kind of chaotic. I figured I could share a few things about this pregnancy since I am just now working…

Now, I know you’re probably laughing because you know that I have kids and that I clean up 197467 messes a day. This being said, I was that mom who swept the floors every day. Our house is entirely hardwood floors and with…

HairDO
Let me tell y’all a little secret. My hair is my security blanket. I am still shocked at myself for cutting it… but all the post partum hair fall out and regrowth gave me no choice! After transitioning my personal care products (and adding a few kids in the mix), one of the things I kept reading about hair is that when you over wash it can cause a multitude of issues. I’ve dealt with psoriasis for many, many, many years and having those flare ups and sores in my scalp make me willing to try anything. The non toxic shampoo and conditioner that I’ve found works best at clearing…

Winter Is A Comin’
The Winter Blues are here and are in full effect. Some days are better than others BUT not getting my regular dose of Vitamin D has a lot to do with it. Mama’s with small children, my hat goes off to you. There is ALWAYS something to do and the messes you have to clean up seem never ending. During all of this, I have realized how important self care is. We cannot pour from an empty cup, It is so important for us to remember that in order to keep all the balls in our court. Here are a few of my favorite ways to show myself self-care during…
