92nd Fashionable Fridays

I wore this outift to church not too long ago. I needed my outfit to be more exciting, so I paired 2 Paparazzi flowers onto my shirt. I did it towards the bottom because I was wearing my hair down and didn't want it covered up. The other leaders in YW liked it =) Such a simple thing to make a statement.

Wellness Wednesday #6

Two weeks ago, I got to meet a great guy, Danny, explain more about the  dōTERRA essential oils. He and his wife have been with them basically since  dōTERRA started 4-5 years ago. Just by talking with him and hearing his story about how his son received respiratory support through the oil, Breathe, I felt even better about using the oils more and more within my home and with my children.

Interested in learning more about them or trying a free sample: https://goo.gl/forms/lPJOOGv3D7Mnnvf13, let me know. Or check my website: https://www.mydoterra.com/essentialwellnessdiva/#/

Last week, I had some major cramps (I rarely get bad cramps), so I looked up what oil to use and Lavender was an option. I put some on my stomach and instantly, my cramps were soothed. I could still feel them, but they weren't uncomfortable. Almost like when I had my baby, I could feel the pressure, but not the pain of it. It was so awesome! Lavender is a great oil that has so many uses! Remember it's also great for skin irritations when you've been in the sun too long as stated in a previous post =)

Mother's Day Handprint/Footprint Flowers

The Friday before Mother's Day in Preschool I had the kids make cards for their moms. Here’s my son making mine. I used my Silhouette to cut out the flowers and pot. Then the kids glued them on and added on finger print leaves. Mother's Day

I know  I mentioned this briefly before, but wanted to share a little more =)

Then very carefully, I had the kids do painted hand prints and foot prints outside. Idea found on Pinterest. Once we were all done, I lifted each kid to the bath tub to wash their feet and hands off. I think it was well worth it. Hope the moms like it. I love the double one of my kid’s prints - going to frame that one!Mother's Day1

68th Mommy Mondays

Last Tuesday, my daughter turned 14 months! It sure keeps going by fast. She is still nursing and now using her pacifier religiously! Yikes! She was doing well until 6 more teeth came in and now she wants her pacifier all the time and has been nursing a lot again. Hopefully those molars will pop through all the way soon so I can attempt the process of weaning her once again.


I think she loved the pudding =)



Interesting things about her is that she loves babies and purses and now she's been really into shoes! It amazes me how girly she is at such a young age! She actually likes walking in shoes - everyone's shoes and begs us to put them back on her every time they fall off. Although, she's such a girly girl, she also knows how to do the vroom vroom noise with cars - it was too cute to see her playing with tractors and cars with her brother making the noises like he does =D I love being a mom!
