Hello World! :-)

Hello all! So I've been gone for a couple of months and it's all out of discouragement. I figured that  if I don't have any subscribers, why write my life? But I had to remember how good it felt to just talk and get things out no matter what it is. So here is an update :-) I did purchase the Exederm baby skincare line for my daughter. As I stated before she has super sensitive, dry, and itchy/flaky at times skin. I purchased the baby oil, baby bath, lotion, and cream. To me it didn't do anything special. After using all of the products  for about  a month or so, I didn't see any change in Mya's skin. She still itched and her skin was still dry. The only thing I like about it was that none of  it irritated her skin. So back to the drawing board it is.

Also, I am 6 months into my natural hair transition. It's weird because I thought by now I would be screaming for a relaxer but my natural hair is actually softer than my relaxed hair. The one thing I am absolutely falling in love with is my curl pattern. The longer my natural hair gets the more my coils start to define themselves. I LOVE IT! It makes me want to cut my hair NOW but I did set a one year goal and I'm going to TRY to stick to it. Plus I already know who I want to let " Big Chop" my hair.

Lastly, I have to say that I fell off the "loving me wagon." I find it very hard as a mother ( and let me be real a wife too.) to take care of me. I have so many goals for myself and I can't seem to accomplish them. During a recent girl's night, my girls and I all completed our own 2012 vision boards which I have posted in my bedroom. This is my first time creating one and I'm looking forward to crossing things off my board that I've accomplished. To me the only problem I have is MOTHERHOOD & WIFEDOM LOL I am constantly thinking about and doing things to make Mya and my husband happy to the point that I will drop anything for them and I don't make time for myself and  in a lot of ways that hasn't been good. I'm not making excuses for myself( or maybe I am) but starting today and not because it's a new year, I am going to start loving me just a little bit more. Soooo, to the people out there that view my blog postings this question is for you.

What do you do to show yourself l ove? Thanks for reading! :-)
