Baby Magic Review and Giveaway

Review

My children Dean and Max have been using Lavender and Chamomile body wash and shampoo and lotion for a month now. We are loving this product! It has a wonderful scent, not too strong at all. It lingers long enough for the boys to relax and ease into dream land. The scent isn't overwhelming either. Dean my eight month old was having a hard time falling asleep due to teething and growth spurt so we tried it out it was only fifteen minutes I haven't fed him milk he was so relaxed he fell asleep. It was wonderful! lol I tried it on my 3 year old, didn't quite happen the same way. Results may vary lol. Their shampoo was easy to rinse off and tear free for my little guy. Max said he loved it. He said that it smelled, "delicious!" :D The Lotion was rich and creamy and not at all greasy. It really helps moisturize their skins. Also not only is it calming for them, when I co-sleep with either one of the boys it relaxes me too. We definitely need to stock up on more Baby Magic Lavender and Chamomile body wash and shampoo and lotion. Thank you Baby Magic!

Re-Halloween New Jersey

[Max as Mario & Dean as Luigi]

So as many of New Jersey had problems with power and or more :/ our kiddies had Halloween canceled on them. Some twice from last year also. So now that governor Chris Christie changed Halloween to today Monday, November 5th a day after my son's birthday it is pretty awesome! So I've looked at safer options in our area of how some malls will be going trick or treating. Woodbridge mall already did it on actual Halloween. Bridgewater already on Saturday :/ and Menlo Park Mall is today! Perfect! The boys are excited! We are planning on going today which starts at 11am through 6pm while supplies last. So you know we will be there right before 11am. Also before that, I saved a pumpkin for the boys to paint as a Halloween arts and crafts! Later after dinner when Rad comes back home from work, we will also again all together go trick or treating as a family. :D I'm excited about Re-Halloween.

Max's 4th Birthday

Today at 3:23 pm Max turned 4 years old. Like every year I'd take a photo of him the night before while he slept. So as November 4th turned [also daylight savings time] we all woke up ran to Max and super molested him with hugs and kisses! :D Started the day of with his big birthday breakfast. I added a little blue candle for him to blow out on top of the toast. We got ready for his birthday party hangout at Chuck E. Cheese at 11 am and ended 1 pm. He had lots of fun seeing few friends and getting those free tickets! We went for a quick lunch snack at Taco Bell and then stopped at Toys R Us for his birthday gift. We picked the big ticket item green bike but what was awesome about it was that he picked his own helmet.

We went home, Rad put the bike together and I made the birthday cake. Red Velvet with Cream Cheese filling and cream cheese icing. Just looking at it would make you have diabetes lol. I turned it a little too fast and it fell apart...so much for his Lego themed birthday cake. But its ok because I just lathered the icing on top and Max put his on candles on top! In the end he had a great day and he got everything he wanted. I'm super tired but glad he had his day the way he wanted it! We love you Max Happy 4th Birthday! xoxo

My Baby Bump Journal: Week 22

[Halloween 2o12 Max & Dean as Mario & Luigi]

Let me start this off with crazy ass storm Sandy is and was a pain. Everyone all over the eastern seaboard went nuts, some were fine. My family and I were fine and prepared so no worries here. What I worried about most was when Rad would drive to and from work each area of New Jersey had different forecasts. We also just got our power back last night around 2-3am. Thank God he was off Monday through Wednesday, but Thursday had to go back. Ughk…But it’s all good today Thursday, November 1st. Halloween was yesterday sunny but decent weather than we all originally thought it would be. Now let the real Baby Bump Journal begin!

Happy Halloween! It’s 2012 and my third Halloween of being pregnant. Imagine that third pregnancy, well twice in a row. 2011’s Halloween I was a very pregnant polar bear with my Spirithoods. For this year’s Halloween theme, Max thought of Mario Party Family. He is Mario, Dean is Luigi, Rad is Bowser, I am Princess Peach and on my belly is a picture of a Bowser Bomb. :D Number three is definitely a part of this year’s theme and the four of us is excited to include him/her!

This past week went rather well again. Nothing much to report. My baby bump is growing and definitely can’t miss it. Oh wait I have noticed my stretch marks coming back and I’ve started applying more of my Mama Belly balm from Balm Baby. Also how it seems as if every hour I am running to the bathroom with a full bathroom. Maneuvering around a crowd of parents while picking up Max from Pre-K is a challenge. I usually put Dean in a carrier. This past two weeks my go to carrier is our ring sling. [The black Maya or the girasol rainbow amitola red weft.] I have had no back problems like I did with my second pregnancy with Dean. It’s as if my first trimester was like Dean’s pregnancy and the rest just like Max’s. My pregnancy with Max was freaking awesome! As if I was never pregnant at all. Yes there were the occasional tiredness and my sense of smell was like, well is like a blood hound. :D So for the rest of the pregnancy may it be easy sailing. Happy Halloweenie boys and girls and screw you Sandy >.<
