Because Mommies Need pampering too















My skin gets dry in the winter and it's not pretty. I actually already have a dry patch on my cheek that I would love to get rid of.
I usually can't wait for the winter to be over, so I don't have to deal with the dry, cracked skin anymore.
Yesterday, I was very happy to receive a Bzz Kit from Bzz Agent.
Burt's Bees Intense Hydration cream cleanser, treatment mask, and night cream. All full sized. 

They are treating this mommy very well. I just love the clean scent!  The moisturizer is wonderful and not greasy in the least. The cream cleanser is about $9.99. It provides intense hydration and helps reduce the appearance of fine lines. Say it with me ladies, hydrate, hydrate, hydrate! It makes you look so much more rested. I fell in love instantly with the cleanser. The scent is so relaxing and a huge bonus for me is I don't need to use my eye make-up remover because the cleanser is so creamy it completely dissolves any trace of it. A great time saver.

The night cream is about $17.99 and it replenishes moisture while you sleep. Isn't that wonderful? waking up with skin that's soft, supple, and revitalized. It absorbs quickly because it's non-greasy so you can hop right into bed and not mess your pretty pillow cases. I tried the night cream last night and it felt great on my skin and I looked pretty darn good this morning.
And last but not least, the intense hydration treatment mask $17.99. This is wonderful! It's like being at the spa for me cause I just don't have the time anymore to physically go there much these days. 
You can find Burt's Bees products at your local pharmacy or order online. Check out facebook for more info on the Burt's Bees products

Pumpkins and cupcake's


We started early this year, getting into all things fall.

We did the pumpkin picking and decorating as you can see above.

I made some glittery girly pumpkins which were fun!

Luke had a pumpkin carved for him by his dad.
too bad it was carved too soon and is now resting in peace...
in our garbage.

The cupcake was extremely yummy!  
Luke's grandma knows the way to my heart is with sweets. 

The cute cupcake costume is what my adorable little niece will be wearing to my buildings annual Halloween party tomorrow. 
So exciting, Luke's first Halloween party.

The kid is ready!  My cousin bought these for him when  I was pregnant. They are 12 mos and he's already wearing them.

See that HUGE pumpkin on the pick up truck?  I wondered all day where it was going. Who rides around NYC with something like that?

Super Cute!

Oh! How this little guy lights up my life!


I wanted Luke to Have a picture with the first toy his dad ever bought him. His FAVORITE toy.


Kiddie Kandids did such an AMAZING job with the pictures. 

While on my way to pick up pictures at Kiddie Kandids. I spied some cute Christmas outfits for my little niece.


Luke's dad alway's knows how to make me feel special. He planned a private little picnic by a park bench. There was no one nearby so it was So peaceful.



The sights on a trail. We went for a little walk in the woods. 

It was so relaxing the little one fell asleep!

Here he is, asleep in his brand new Bob's jogger

Sigh! fresh air!



There's the jogger again.

The little guy has some teeth!  Two to be exact. He's adorable when he smiles and I get a glimpse of them.

This child loves the show "Super Why."  I call it the "Once upon a Time" for the kiddies. He squeals while throwing his hands in the air excitedly. So cute!



Brush up, brush down, brush every way!
Brush your teeth two times a day! I LOVED this cute little song on "Super Why" on PBS.
Uh..yeah, thats my kid looking too cool on the couch. He will probably hate me for taking this one in a few years.

I picked the little guy up from daycare. We drive home, I go to take him out of the car and find...this. He is buried in his blanket. Granted it's been chilly here in NY, but I had the heat on in the car and he's bundled up in layers. I had to laugh!

When we went for a walk in the park, I kept stepping on these green lime colored balls on the ground, so I said, "what are these things?!!! "
Turns out they are walnuts!  I had no idea they grow in these green casings.

I came across this online the other day. I always wondered what ever happened to Annie!  She looks amazing.
