imPRESS Press On Manicure

My sister and I were very excited to try out this product by Broadway Nails sent to me via Influenster's Mom VoxBox program for testing purposes. These nails took only a few minutes for us to apply and they looked great. They aren't ridiculously big so they looked real and were manageable with my lifestyle. I use my hands a lot and they stayed on fairly well! I never bother with my nails, but these were so quick and looked so real that I highly recommend them. They are also only $5.99 for solids and $7.99 for the cool prints, and can be found at local drug stores and Wal-Mart. For more info visit: http://impressmanicure.com/

Pregnancy Joys!

I believe I may have lost the ability to sleep....well at least when I'm supposed to sleep =/ I must say I am a wee bit tired of being pregnant. It feels like I have been pregnant forever (but with my oldest being 3, then 13 months and now 33 weeks along...I think that counts as being pregnant for basically 4 years lol). I should be doing homework but I find I enjoy blogging much better. Every person in my house is sound asleep, and although I am exhausted sleep is not on my agenda. Any other pregnant ladies fall asleep at the worst times? I keep finding myself passing out randomly, one second I'm playing with my son the next he is kicking me telling me to wake up. Kinda creepy feeling really lol. I need to use this more :) I must plague it with pictures of these beautiful boys who are the source of my exhaustion! Even on my worst days, I look at them and have no doubt it is all worth it...it is crazy the love children bring. I could not be a luckier mommy, 3 little boys have made my heart swell to unfathomable proportions. Mommies of little boys know what I mean, they sure do know how to make you smile.

The Many Uses of Ivory

   My second Influenster VoxBox review is over Ivory Bar Soap. I have always gravitated toward bar soap because it is inexpensive, and because of extremely sensitive skin I am very picky. Simply looking at this soap I could tell it was a more natural soap, and after some reading I found it is 99.94% natural and even floats (which I had to try out and it is true...as well as pretty cool!). I used Ivory as a body soap, and plan to replace my current soap with it! It does not leave a residue, no rash, and has a nice light scent. Natural just feels so much better, and on top of all of that it is WAY cheaper than my current soap. I am honestly very excited about this product, I love natural and I love cheap. According to other users it can be used for laundry flakes or stain removal so I will be testing this out soon :) I highly recommend this product for the use of a body soap!  *This product was given to me as a participant in the 2012 Mom VoxBox from Influenster for testing purposes*

Quaker Soft Baked Oatmeal Cookie Review, my very 1st VoxBox review :)

     Some of my friends on facebook were posting things about this awesome site called Influenster so I decided to check it out...and they are right it is awesome! I received a Mom VoxBox full of products to test, and one product was Quaker's Soft Baked Oatmeal Cookies...at 8 months pregnant, I was exceptionally excited to try this treat out! My 3-year-old son, Rayden, fought me over it and he loved the cookie too! This cookie was soft and delicious, they are individually packaged but taste like you made them at home. With only 6grams of fat, and made with whole grain (so of course a great source of fiber) I was very excited my toddler found it as delicious as I did. Mommies: I recommend these. I am thinking potty training treats since these are so delicious, but you can also rest assure that they are getting beneficial nutrients too.
