Baby is 1 week old already!

Hi everyone! I seriously cannot believe it's already been a week since I had baby Sophia! She officially turned 1 week old yesterday (Friday).  She has been such a pleasure and my daughters have been enjoying her as much as my husband and I have been.


She wakes up every 2-3 hours to eat (She is breastmilk fed, but I currently am pumping exclusively). She only cries if she is hungry or has a soiled diaper, otherwise she is quite easy to comfort (which is such a blessing since my two daughter were both very hard to take care of when they were this age!) 


some people were asking me to do a 'post pregnancy' video, and i'm definitely thinking of doing one. I'm thinking of doing it when I officially go on maternity leave from school. (yes i'm still in school right now doing work and what not lol) so it starts in April and will probably have time to film then. 

Welcome to the World Baby!

For those wondering what happened to me.. lol - I actually had my baby this past Friday and it was the longest labor ever (well to me lol)..


but we're home and adjusting quite well.. but sorry for my absence, I've added a new bundle of joy to my family and we're all as smitten as can be :)


so if you don't hear from me for awhile, just know i'm busy! (3 kids, school, hubby!) but i'll be updating the blog and doing videos when I can! :)


for now, here are a couple pics.

Review :: L'Oreal 24hr Infallible eyeshadows with Swatches

Around the same time that I purchase the Maybelline 24/7 Color Tattoo's, I just so happen to stumble upon some of the L'oreal 24hr Infallible Eyeshadows.  I do not have all of them, but rather 6 of the ones that caught my eye. 


There are a total of 12 Shades:
- Amber Rush
- Bronzed Taupe
- Continuous Cocoa
- Endless Pearl
- Eternal Black
- Eternal Sunshine
- Golden Sage
- Iced Latte
- Infinite Sky
- Midnight Blue
- Perpetual Purple
- Sultry Smoke


What L'Oreal claims is that these intense colored eyeshadows are supposed to be long lasting for a full 24 hours. It's a Powder-Cream Texture. They claim to be water proof, crease resistant and fade resistant

Video :: My 1st Influenster Love Vox Box

So if you follow me on twitter/facebook or instagram - you know by now (since i tweeted etc yesterday) I received my Influenster VoxBox yesterday and wanted to share with you all what was inside the box. It was my first time receiving a VoxBox.


If you're wondering what Influenster is - It's FREE to register/sign-up. And you then take a few lifestyle quizzes and you then earn badges. The more badges you earn, the more chances you'll get to participate in receiving their voxboxes. So In February, I got the e-mail that I qualified to get a "Love VoxBox" (the theme love because of v-day, which was around the time I received the e-mail). 

Video :: What I'm packing in my Hospital bag (requested)

So I had originally filmed this video On Monday March 5, 2012 (When I really turned 37 weeks) But due to being super busy with my kids events at school, preparing for baby and other motherly duties and school stuff for myself - I was not able to edit this till now :P

My amazing YT Subbies, Blog & Twitter friends had asked me to do a video (since I mentioned this in my previous pregnancy vlog) on What I'm bringing in my hospital bag for when I go into labor.

Please keep in mind, I plan to have my baby (this is my 3rd), vaginally & naturally. If I am able to do so, this will be my 2nd successful VBAC (My first baby was c-section because of medical complications)

So i'm basing my hospital bag from my previous delivery (actually for that baby I had gone into full blown labor so fast I didn't even have my bags packed!). I didn't stay in the hospital long at all, only one night and left the next morning. 

Tutorial :: Naked Palette Smokey Eye

So I had originally filmed this video almost 2 weeks ago, it was the only time I had available (of course at night when the kiddies were sleeping).. And I had accidentally deleted it and it was a mess I thought I didn't have it and ended up re-filming it.. so if you see one with a nude lip (that was the original one that was supposed to go up) and in the video the one with a berry colored lip, I decided to be a bit more dramatic/glam so :) you can totally dress up the look!

In the video I also was testing out the new Ardell Double Up lashes (claims to be 2 lashes in 1) that my Mother in Law got for me when we were at Sally's the other day.. they are SUPER Dramatic, but.. because these lashes are supposedly doubled up, the band is extremely hard for me to work with, and ended up looking all wonky on the video LOL - so I do apologize, yes I'm aware the lashes do not suit me :P I'll stick to my Kiss 03 lashes :D or perhaps just try a different ardell ones.. these ones just looked terrible on me..

But anyway, I wanted to do a look featuring the Urban Decay Naked Palette, because I didn't want it to feel left out (cause I had done a previous tutorial using Naked2) :P lol. So this Smokey is is super easy and I do hope you enjoy it!
