I Have Never YELLED at My Kids !!!!
If you believe that I would love to sell you some land in the Everglades. So the other day I saw a posting from The Bizy Mommy on Facebook about the 30 Days to Less Yelling Project and thought I would take a look at it.
I mean I think every Mom has yelled at their kids one time or another and if not she is probably sitting in the corner with a box of wine and some kind of illegal substance in her. Don't get offended or think I am talking about you this is my opinion and we know what everyone says about them. I personally know one woman who never raised her voice to her kids or to anyone and I have tried to nominate her for Sainthood many times. Does that make it right, of course not but it is my truth at least. I was only 17 & 19 when I had my first 2 kids so I can say I never yelled at them probably because I was still a kid. By the time I turned 30 I had 3 more kids and lets just say my new language has been one of a higher tone. I catch myself yelling not just when they do something they shouldn't like fighting with each other or being mean to each other but just to say I LOVE YOU or GOOD MORNING. You catch my drift I am loud. That brings me to this challenge and if you know me I love a good challenge. I know that yelling is not right, I know that it changes a kids personality. I also know that admitting you have a problem is the first step to recovery and I am admitting it so that is a good beginning. The challenge starts on February 22nd and it lasts for 30 days. Every morning you will get an email with a reminder and inspirational quote. They also have a Facebook page to check out and see what others are talking about. I am going to take this challenge serious and hope bu the time the 30 days are up I am YELL FREE.
Again this is my opinion and if you don't agree with them .... Well really I could care less but those of you that do agree please feel free to leave a comment. I may answer you if I can stop sipping from my box wine for a while.

L'OREAL Paris Magic BB Cream
I was given the new L'OREAL Paris Magic BB Cream to try out from SheSpeaks. I am one of those women that doesn't have time in the morning to put a ton of make-up on nor do I want to. This has everything you need in one little tube. The Magic BB Cream is formulated to prime, perfect, hydrate and correct skin.It makes you look like you have a clear even skin tone but only you know that you are wearing something. At first when I opened it and tried it I was taken aback because it comes out white. That is the magic of it. It has special self adjusting beads that transform into your skin tone. To apply you just dot on and blend with your fingertips. It comes in 4 skin tones deep, fair, light and medium and the price is awesome. The best part is it is sold in most stores so you don't have to go to a specialty store to find it.
*** Disclosure: I was given this product from SheSpeaks and L'Oreal for the purpose of this review but my opinions are just that mine and in no way influenced by anyone.

#Mamavation Monday
I have been on Cloud NINE since becoming a Mamavation Mom and starting boot camp. I can honestly say that with this extra weight I have been carrying I have not felt like a Woman much less HOT. I am always walking around either pulling my shirt down over my butt or making sure nothing is hanging out. These past 3 weeks I have been feeling more alive and starting to get a glimpse of the old me. The girl who didn't try hard because she was On Fire. I know that what you put in your mouth is what you become so I have cut out all BAD foods.
