Day and Night

I used to sell makeup for a certain company. I have to say that I really did not every do it for the money because honestly the money was not very good at all. I really did it because I really liked their products and I enjoyed buying if for myself. It was an easy way for me to be able to order it and have it delivered right to my door and I even got a small okay let me restate that very small discount. One thing I did learn from looking at the books all the time was that there is a day eye cream and a night eye cream. the day cream was not as strong of greasy as the night cream. The night cream was suppose to be more advanced so it could soak in during the night while you slept. Personally I liked the day cream because like I said it was less greasy than the night cream. I should however had tried another brand before making my opinion. I did find this cream online that looks really promising. i might have to order some for myself and see if I like it.

What is it anyways?

I often come across people talking about weight loss supplements and I actually never really even knew what they were. After a little bit of online research I found out that it is actually a pill that you take to suppress your appetite. It makes you feel full longer on less food. Well if you ask me that sounds perfect. I would love to eat less and never feel hungry.
There are some very important aspects that you need to look at before you decide if a supplement is right for you. You first or should I say I first would look at the side effects that might happen to you. I think that some pills say you should not take them if you have some pre existing conditions. I would also look at the price of the pills. Remember if you have to take them everyday it could get costly. I would personally also look at reviews to see it what they promise really works. You never know these days there is so much on the market. If I am going to shell out the cash I want to make sure what I'm buying works.

Typical

Most kids Maddie's age always have naked baby dolls. I remember that I used to always have to out clothes on my babies. I often wonder it that is the reason that Maddie's babies always look like the one above. This baby is actually lightly dressed. She has a pair of Aidan's church shoes on along with his bib. They usually have at least one or two outfits on them that have either been taken out of Aidan's drawers or that I gave her from his newborn clothes. Ken told me to take a picture of this baby because after the kids went to bed he saw her standing just like this on the couch. He thought it was hilarious.

Mothers Day

Well just the other day I remembered that the next holiday that I need to be thinking about is Mothers day. I have to say personally I am very thankful for my mother and I just don't know what I would do without her. I talk to her at least two times every day. So since it is mothers day soon I have to start thinking of a mothers day gift. For her past birthday I gave her a purse that she really wanted. It is actually really neat because you can change the outside of the purse by simply taking off the outside shell. The main purse is always the same. I thought it was the perfect gift for her because I can always buy her another shell for upcoming holidays like mothers day. There are also tons of cute little thing I can get online to gill up her gift bag. I know I might have a month or so but it comes fast enough and I do not like to wait till the last minute.

It makes me Laugh

There is a commercial for some diet drug that they always have on tv with a man and a woman. In the commercial they it says they both started dieting and she is still fat and he lost a ton of weight. It always makes me laugh because it is some what true. It does seem easier for men to loose weight than women. I don't know if that is because I am a woman or just because I think Ken can loose weight easier than I can. I am not really sure why that is because it seems like I very rarely get a chance to sit down with the kids. I am always making breakfast or lunch or running to the store to grab some last things to make dinner. I wonder what the best fat burners for women are. I really have never did that much research on it but it interests me. I am always wanting to loose weight and I am trying even though it is really hard for me. I think if your fat it is harder to get moving to get into shape. I don't eat very much during the day because honestly I really don't have time to feed myself. With school and the kids I always come last. I know the key to weight loss is eating breakfast and having meals so maybe that is my main problem. I will have to look into it.

Never Caught Up

Gosh it seems like I am never caught up on this laundry pile. I seriously have been doing laundry since 7:30 this morning and I am still doing it. I do laundry a few times a week until I get tired of doing it but it seems like I never get finished. It seems like just when the pile is down I have a huge pile somewhere else. I think that one of my worst favorite household chores has to be the laundry. I have however just tried for the first time this tide stain release liquid and I love it. I am pretty much thinking that it is a miracle worker right now. A few months ago I put a new dark blue shirt of Aidan's in the wash and I forgot I should wash it separate and it put dye all over the other clothes in the wash. Well today this tide stuff was working so well I gave it a try and it actually took out the blue from the clothes. I was impressed. I will not really use any laundry soap except tide anyways but tide in addition to this stain release it awesome. I am really thankful I got some free from a jewel sale so I was able to try it. I for sure will be looking for sales on this stuff now.

Lotions

I have been moisturizing ever since I have known what lotion was for. As a matter of fact I go through tons of lotion every year. I am not super picky because I really don't care what lotion I use as long as it does not leave me feeling greasy. I hate those that make you feel like you need to wash it off right away because it is never going to soak into your skin. I always use lotion and face moisturizers during the winter. I do also in the summer but more in the winter because I tend to have dry skin. I like to try and use natural face cream because I don't like all the chemicals they put into them but as long as it works I am happy. I usually use one that is for normal skin on my face because I don't like leaving my face greasy. I also don't want to get acne just because I use a face cream. I have to secretly admit I use them to prevent wrinkles. I might as well if they have them. Even though some are proud of their wrinkles they are just not pretty no matter how you look at them. I love face creams. I sure don't know what I would do if I did not have my favorite.

A fun Night

Well last night was a fun night for us as we had family in town. Maddie's God Mother came into town with her mom and her brother. They were visiting for a few hours and we all went out to dinner with my parents. It was a fun night. They brought Maddie a Cinderella dress that she could wear when he meets her at Disney World this coming May. It was great to visit with them again. It sure seems like we see our family less since my grandma passed on. We did a little planning of this coming Easter. We decided that we were going to go to the zoo a couple hours away. They did that last year while we spent the holiday with Ken's family. This year we are also going to the zoo with them for a picnic lunch. I think that the kids will really enjoy it. It has actually been a while since we went to the zoo.
Also when were were at the pizza place I happened to run into an old friend that I have not seen in about 15 years. Gosh it is so amazing when you seem someone that you have not seen since you were 13 years old. It is also funny that you can still notice them and remember everything about them even though it has been so long. We now have already connected through facebook so we can keep in touch better. It was such a beautiful day yesterday as it is today.

Keeping it up

Well the first of the year did not really get Ken and I motivated to loose weight like it does to some people. I know that every January millions of people vow to exercise and to stop eating the junk food. I however just feel so dumpy in January. I hate how its so cold outside and I can not even stand to get all bundled up just to go to the store. However now that it is getting to be beautiful outside I love it and I feel so much better. Now Ken and I have been actually exercising together with the kids by going for walks outside and we also exercise in the basement when the kids go to bed. It is nice because Ken has it set up down there like a little gym with the treadmill and weight lifting and a few other things. We have a radio as well as a tv that we can watch while we work out. I was looking online today for some of the best fat burning exercises so that maybe we can work that into our nightly routine. It seems like if we miss a night I feel so down and unmotivated. It also makes it better since we are doing it together and we can encourage one another if one of us feels like stopping. We really did not start exercising at the same time as everyone else did but I think the weather makes a huge difference on how we feel.

Children's Memorial Hospital

This Saturday we have an appointment at Children's memorial hospital with a doctor for Aidan. His pedi recommended that we get a second opinion about his hernias since the last doctor said that he did not have any. I was told this was the best hospital for kids so I am hoping that we can get this all figured out. I have never been to this hospital and it actually really makes me nervous going to a children's hospital because I just have these awful images of all these little ones hurt and in pain. I know the same thing is at a regular hospital but just that this one is for kids makes me think of it even worse than normal. I hate to say but I actually hope that I don't even see any sick kids because I hate to see kids suffering. I hope it will not take long and we will be able to get Aidan in and out without a lot of waiting.
Thankfully mom mom has offered to take the other kids so that we don't have to take them as well. I would not mind taking them but it is just easier to listen and concentrate when they are not with us. I am hoping this doctor will also say Aidan is just fine but I will keep praying just in case.
