Oh Em Gee! I though it was TOTALLY over-hyped! It is the BOMB. It scores a 1 or2  (depending on fragrance) on Skin Deep, rubs in well and works. I will never use another sunscreen on my DD. I use Mychelle on my face, as it works well and it doesn’t clog pores and goes on well under mineral foundation and isn’t chalky white. It is a bit more expensive though…

So this CA Baby stuff is SO freakin’ fab! They sell a 19oz bottle, too bad it is $125!

{August 28, 2009}   Things I am loving!


I just got a pair for me under $20, and a pair for DD under $9! With FS.  YAY! I have a BEAUTIFUL pair of Umi boots for her for fall, and I am looking for a black pair of shoes, too. Brown and black seem to match her stuff best every year. The Simple Shoes I got her are a few sizes too big, but her feet grow CRAZY fast! YAY to environmentally friendly and local  SS!

{August 26, 2009}   LOVE this pic!

I want my daughter to grow up seeing REAL images of women,  not airbrushed replicas of real women.You MUST see this photo!

Kudos to Glamour Magazine. BTW, is she really even plus-size, or just normal? She looks pretty normal, and quite beautiful to me!

I have lost 10 lbs the past few months, and am continuing to lose more. My weight loss is due to a health issue (specifically thyroid) I am working on by taking supplements… I know my ideal weight, everyone has one. It is where YOU look and feel best.  Your frame largely determines this, for me I am a bit larger in one place than most (at ANY weight), and that is a HUGE determining factor for me.    When I look in the mirror, I try to look at myself as a whole, not focusing on one or two parts. I will never be the same size as I was pre DD, but I had to have my DD vacuum extracted my hips were so small. They had to spread, and I am cool with that, I have  a beautiful daughter which far out weights and body changes. I try to be as healthy as possible not skinny. And my daughter will grow up with a mother that NEVER dieted, we are veggies so we have to watch what we eat, and never complained about how fat she was. My ability to love myself, will create a more confident woman. For that I am grateful….
