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…

Actually, I can!
(my top and boots are from Vici Dolls and are sold out, but I’ve linked similar ones below!) If you’ve followed my blogging journey, then you’ve gotten more than your fair share of personal information about my life. If you are new to my blog, I’d like to share some information with you to give a little background about me. I used to live a really unhealthy lifestyle that I hated. When I realized I wanted to change my life for the better, I lost 60+ pounds and also became educated about non toxic living. I have not always cared about being non toxic and I’ve personally seen several family…

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…

My Chicken and “Rice” Recipe and Non Toxic Cookware Guide
One thing I’ve learned after starting my family is that finding good recipes that don’t take several hours to make is really important. It’s so easy to say, “well, nothing is cooked, so let’s just head out to eat.” How often have you heard those words come out of your mouth? Fast food or eating out is such a waste of money and will pack on the pounds at the same time. Don’t get me wrong, getting “vacation meals” every now and then isn’t bad but don’t make it a habit. I am with the kids 24/7 and even though Derrek is more than hands on when he is home,…

Selfcare When You’re a Mom
my top | jeans (sold out – Vici Collection)| bag | shoes (sold out – Vici Collection) | lip color I’m in the throws of teething right now and I’ve come to realize that taking care of myself a little extra during this is what helps me keep my sanity. Other than living on coffee, dry shampoo and a lot of grace, I make sure to take specific breaks of time for myself so I don’t get burned out. I’m sure we’ve all been there as moms, touched out, tired and a sobbing mess. Some days I don’t get my teeth brushed until after lunch and I stay in pjs…
