Going on Vacation While pregnant


I planned the vacation knowing I would be just a few weeks away from my due date & to be honest it wasn't that bad, I had to rest a lot and at the end of the day I was done but I got to enjoy family time which it was so much fun, yes I even ventured in the ocean which it was super refreshing, walked a lot, ate delicious and treated my self to sweets.
I want to share with you what make this trip so much easier for my self and my family. First of all I only packed what was really needed, including beach items. We have a van so there was plenty of space (can't say that will be the case next year) We put the kids together side by side (usually they are separated by a seat) that way they could see movies together and my oldest helped get things for my beautiful demanding daughter. I packed snacks for then and put them all in a bag on their feet, blankets too and each had a backpack full of toys, coloring books and their favorite stuff animals.
For my part I got my self a comfy travel pillow and blanket that i keep in the car now days, also water bottles a most. We stoped a 2 times in and out. Sleeping now days is hard for me, multiple trips to the bathroom at nigh don't help, but I made sure to nap when I could that was two days out of 4 which it was not bad. I mainly was in my swimming suit and cover up, but for nights I liked to dress up a bit and dresses where my go to. I forgot to apply my self sunscreen one day and got a bit of sunburn not much but it bothered me for a few days coconut oil saved me feel better. My hair hates moisture so it was most of the time up on a bum or frizzy (picture seriously captured that). If you get motion sickness like me I took my peppermint oil and saved not only me but my son. By the end I was ready to go home which it seemed to take forever but wouldn't trade it for anything. I also just went with the flow, whatever I wanted to eat for dinner we had, whatever we were up to do we did. Once I got back I realized it was our last vacation as a family of 4 which it got my hormones going. Now I'm just getting last minute ready for baby #3 and getting ready for my other two babies to leave me and learn.

Thank you for reading,

Starting a Business

It has been my dream to start my own business in the clothing & accessory industry. This year with the support of my family, I was able to start it. I started with one product & add as I go and learn more. The name was chosen in 2013 back when I used to make handmade crochet baby outfits as a hobby, I used to sell on Etsy and on my own facebook page but life got busy and I had to step down from my dream. When the opportunity to develop my dream on a bigger scale came I knew I wanted that name. The logo inspiration came from the back of our youngest hair, she has this hurricane of hair, like a galaxy. The colors from the earth and how I want all of you to feel when you were our products, happy, beautiful and like yourself. I didn't want to just create a business to gain from it, I want to give back too, each month we are choosing a different charity and donating 10% of the profit to them. My goal is to be able to one day sponsor a child from compassion international a

Having my 3rd child, I knew what products I really needed but let's be honest after 5 years there were so many new products that I really wanted to try, so here are my favorites products from birth to 6 months. I'm not adding the products I already shared on my Newborn must haves post. I'm going a little beyond and sharing a lot of new products that were not available with my other two children. MunchMitt , I looked so much for something just like this, there are other brand that make very similar ones but reviews made me decide this was meant for us, or her, she started chewing on her hands around 3 months it was to the point where they would be red and she didn't yet had the grasp on things quite master. This even to this day at 6 months is being loved by a teething girl. Yup my baby has now two bottom teeth, please cry with me. Ok first of all, this sad photo was taken at target, this lady decided to have an explosive diaper and it wasn't pretty, I wa
