Monday's

Today started like any other Monday. I woke up to my 4 yr old in bed with me I fell asleep watching That 70's show on Nick at Night  I totally brought this on to my self so I was up 30 minutes early. Coffee in hand I sat down trying to wake up after being stalked  followed into the living room with demands for food I quickly lost my extra 30 minutes. Time to get the boy up to my surprise he jumped up on my first attempt whew! No breakfast issues it was ready he liked the school lunch choice & even accepted the clothes choices I had laid out. We were moving along time to load into the van to drive him to school amazingly the drop off line was empty I quickly thought WTH is there school today? No just luck for us!!
I also started out day 2 of my Spring cleaning and got a lot accomplished.. All the wood floors are steamed & swept walls wiped down toys cleaned out. Way more than I thought possible with sissy home she was easily babysat distracted by all the cartoons that she never seen because she'd been at school. Tomorrow I will tackle the clothes issue I could easily clothe 2-3 more kids and at least 2 other women with the amount of excess we have right now. My poor husband well he only has 2 drawers and 2 shelves he's not the problem on this so I am left alone of the clothes clean out.

One big thing happened today I noticed for the second time that sissy had a red bump on her skull with a weird rash/scratchy area on it. With her history of Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis it set off flags for me that this could be signaling a flare up. So tomorrow I make the dreaded call to oncology to give them a heads up & see what her main doctor thinks if I should see her pediatrician or wait until our scheduled clinic appt. this Thursday. This is also her big hearing test day to see how much damage the tumor & chemo did to her.

Garnier Fructis Triple Nutrition Review

As I have mentioned in the past I am a Buzz Agent right now I have been lucky enough to be chosen for several campaigns. Being a buzz agent I am selected to try products for free & share my experience with my friends or just about any one I think could benefit from my campaigns! On Wednesday I got my much anticipated Garnier Fructis Triple Nutrition buzz kit... Our mail runs 1st thing so I got to try it the day I got it!  I must say I was impressed, the shampoo was thick & lathered up great the smell refreshing!! The conditioner was also thick and it too smelled so good. I have super thick hair right now it is past my shoulders, just to let you know my hair type. So far I have used the shampoo four times. I can really tell a difference in my hair. It feels smoother & looks healthier. One thing I love is that you can feel the smoothness as soon as you rinse your hair in the shower brushing out my long hair has been a little easier too.. Overall I'd say that Garnier Fructis Triple Nutrition is definitely worth a try!  Or if you prefer the New Sleek & Shine if your have dry frizzy humidity stricken hair this collection will give you smooth hair for up to 3 days!!

This is a look at my dry ends before starting the Garnier Fructis Triple Nutrition campaign!

One of my favorite things I do as a mommy is being a part of Buzz Agent. What is that you ask? A word of mouth company that pairs companies with buzz agents that share there opinion/buzz on new products that they get to try often for free of charge! Perfect for me since I love to talk & this gives me the chance to strike up a conversation with just about any one I come across! One of the newest campaigns that I have been accepted to is the Garnier Fructis Campaign, I am excitedly waiting on my campaign kit to arrive & can't wait to share before & after pictures of my product results!Garnier Fructis Buzz Campaign  

Loving the little things!

This week my daughter got her ballet costume for her upcoming showcase, something a few years ago we didn't know if something like this would happen. After her diagnosis and treatment for Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis changed our lives forever & in a split second. My 6 year old got his yearbook for his 1st year in school. Another  thing we didn't know if it would happen a few years ago when he had no speech what so ever and several other issues as well. But with a lot of hard work and too many to count therapy sessions he is on track to go onto 1st grade!! 
Today was one of those days you just cherish as a mom, surprisingly I was allowed to sleep in to 1030 am I still don't know how I did this but I was awoken to bacon french toast & hot coffee! Amazing!! We all laid around in out jammies watching cartoons and playing around until late afternoon. Made chocolate chip cookies with sissy and hubby cooked dinner on the grill! A perfect chilly wet Saturday for me. How was your weekend?
