Recent purchases.

I hope everyone had a great weekend! Ours was low key and spent together. Just how I like it. As usual I'm lacking blogging inspiration so I thought I would share some a few beauty buys from this past week. 

So I've been trying to do that white highlighter thing under the eyes and was like Hey! This oughtta do it! Wrong. So, so, so, so wrong. I don't know if I'm not using enough or am not applying it right but I'm pissed. I don't notice any difference!

I got the mini one at Ulta for $10 and again. Not too pleased. It's really thick and caked up. Again, not sure if I'm applying it right or if I need to use less. Any helpful tips are appreciated. 

I've been wanting to try a volumizing powder for awhile but am always to cheap scared, to commit. This was on sale for $6 so I thought I would give it a shot. I didn't really notice any difference. :( my hair looked the same except it felt like it was teased but didn't have the volume. I'll have to work with it when I have some down time before I give my final verdict. 

Above products were purchased at ULTA.

I know I'm late to the party but I'm loving this! I have really dry skin and this is amazing. Seriously worth every penny.

That's all she wrote!

A mothers love.

I knew when I became a mother, I would do some crazy shit for my kids. Things people without children would never do or even think were reasonable. 

Yesterday I chased a paper birthday hat down the street, dodging cars, because Ryan was screaming for it. 

I love you too baby.

Happy Birthday Big Sexy.

Today is my husbands 31st birthday. To celebrate I thought I would share some facts about my better half.

-He talks in his sleep. He says things that don't make sense. He combines work and the kids. It's seriously hilarious. I need to record him.

-His favorite food it corn and pot stickers. He could live off both. Swear.

-He is a worry wart. Like really bad. But I think it's a good thing, because everything that he stresses out about happening, never does. 

-He loves to learn. LOVES to figure out how things work.

-He always gets both sides to a story. It's so annoying.

-He loves to sing. In the car, at home, at a bar. Put on Roxanne and you're going to get a show.

-He's easily talked into things at the Lego store. Some supernatural force comes over him and he's unable to tell Jack no. 

-He makes a really good breakfast. If you ask him to make dinner, he'll order in, but he's really good at breakfast.

-He's really good with the boys. He loves to play with them and wrestle. 

-He's really patient with Jack when helping him with his homework.

-He puts up with me. I love to harass him and make him uncomfortable. And he lets me do it.

-He loves his Mama. There's nothing he wouldn't do for her. He truly is "The Good Son"

-He's an amazing Uncle. He loves his nieces to death!

-He loves hard. There's nothing he wouldn't do for me or the boys. 

I love you sweetheart. I hope you have a wonderful Birthday!

Love, Hyphy Wifey.

To Boston with LOVE.

I can't not say anything about what happened. Yet i have no words. I have family in MA. I have been to Boston many times. I have amazing memories of Boston. I love the city. If I could pick any city to live in, it would be Boston. I love the people. I love the pride they have from being/living in Boston. 

My cousin works at Brandeis University. It's in Waltham, which is right next to Water Town. Her and her girlfriend were on lockdown today. Her father, my uncle, owns his own organic delivery business. He was escorted by the police out of Boston this morning at 8am. To say I've been a mess is a fucking understatement. 

I will never understand why people choose to hurt others. NEVER. I don't want to offend anyone but I can't help but be sad for the 2 suspects. They were so young. So much life ahead of them. And they chose to throw it all away. 

I hope everyone has a peaceful, happy weekend and you spend it holding your loved ones.

The last 24 hours.

Yesterday Brannan came home early. We went in the backyard and as soon as I sat down, I saw this. 

(this picture was actually taken later on in our front yard)

He was just standing in our backyard, like he owned the place. We quickly got back inside. Brannan went out to the front yard to see if he had left the yard and to close the side gate. Because I can never stay out of trouble I went out front too. This "little" was on the sidewalk and ran right up to me and sat on my feet. I could count every single one of his ribs. He was filthy and hungry. I had called animal control because I was scared. There was a stray pitbull roaming about, but as soon as he sat on me I knew that was a bad idea. My neighbor Pete came home and fed him. He has a dog and our new friend ate THREE BOWLS OF FOOD! My heart broke for this little guy. Pete knocked on some doors and we finally found where he came from. I'm really missing him today. Even though he was so sweet to me, Brannan and Pete. I have 2 little boys. Ryan is rough and Jack feels the need to always be within an inch of your face. Hopefully his owners will step their game up and take better care of him. (I'm seriously considering stealing him when we move)

A few minutes ago, this happened.

I remember when this tooth came in! I remember rubbing his sweet gums and giving him oranges to chew on :( I'm so depressed. 

Happy Tuesday all!

For the love of God is it the weekend yet?!

Even though last week made me want to curl up in a ball and hide, I survived and am so beyond over this week. As I'm typing this Ryan is picking his nose and flinging.it.on.me. I can't make this up. I need a Nanny. Since my kitchen is still a wreck and will HOPEFULLY!!!! be done next week, I thought I would share a bunch of funny pictures.

This will be framed and hung on the boys bedroom door. If you could see my living room right now, you would understand.

Hell Week.

Last week was awful. The worst week I've had since becoming a mom. Were having our kitchen remodeled so everything from the kitchen is in our living room. Including a bucket of blades for my food processor. (I think you know where I'm going with this) Las Saturday Ryan pulled the bucket down and sliced his foot. Blood everywhere. I would like to thank the good people of the peninsula for keeping it together and for the ER being empty. We were seen right away and after a shit ton of tears, from Mama and Ryan, and 1 stitch we were sent home. Ryan has been a trooper. He hasn't messed with his foot at all and hasn't needed any pain medication. 

On Tuesday during nap time he thought it would be a good idea to pull a picture of the wall. There was shattered glass all up in his crib. Luckily, he only nicked his finger. An hour later he turned the toy bin upside down, stood on it and fell off. Scraping his head on the cement around the fire place. 

On Wednesday, I had Jack's school conference. He's doing ok, rushing a lot and has to stay after school an extra 30 minutes everyday except Wednesday for extra help. While I'm so thankful he's able to get the help he needs I feel like such an offing failure as a mother. I feel like I've let him down.

On Thursday he pulled a container of sour cream out of the trash and smeared it all over a chair. He must have gotten some in his mouth because later that night he threw up.

On Friday we went to get coffee then go to the grocery store and Ryan threw up all over himself and the coffee shop. Later in the afternoon I took him to a play date and his buddy was sick. And that night Ryan got diarrhea. Saturday he threw up and hit his brother in the eye with a paper airplane, which turned into a meltdown for Jack that lasted all night long. Jack's eye is fine. I think he was just so tired and in need of Mama and Daddy cuddles. 

Last night Ryan threw up and had diarrhea. 

I'm reconsidering having a 3rd child. Ryan is already super clingy, and now I feel like I can't leave him alone even to pee. I'm hoping this week will be better otherwise I may have myself committed.
