Happy Holidays <3

Hey Everyone,

Hope everyone had a merry Christmas and got everything they wanted...if not then at least a few cute things.

I always get excited about Christmas...and stressed....I feel like I'm obligated to buy everyone something.


^ ^;;


It's very stressing but I love Christmas. I love how everyone gathers to celebrate....I'm a very family-oriented girl. I love being with my family. I love them dearly. The gifts are nice but that's not the only reason why I love the holidays. The gathering, the food, the music....everything else means so much to me.

<3>


So my husband and I got our son a gift...of course I didn't even get to wrap it. As soon as we got home my hubby open the box and placed our son on his gift....

>.>;;


I knew my son won't open that on Christmas eve or day when we brought it...my hubby is....impatient?

So my baby got a walker for Christmas. The
reason why we didn't get it sooner was because I wanted him to crawl and stand up with assistance. I thought it was important that he learn to crawl and stand before he could walk. I think it's more natural that way...he knew how to take steps because I taught him how when he was about 7 months old. My baby's first day with the walker was funny. He had no clue what to do. It wasn't until the second day after half and hour he got the hang of it. He seems to love moving about. He walks/runs around. He seems super hyper.
<3


A few days ago I want to JCPenney with my mother and brother...and of course my son. I didn't really look for clothes....I probably should have...I mean I still wear some of my "maternity" clothing.... >.>;; Any who...I went to the Sephora inside JCPenney. I told myself I wouldn't buy anything for myself....but I did. I brought Stila Kajal EyeLiner in Onyx, Stila Eyeshadow in Kitten, and the Stila Lipgloss in Kitten. I brought my mom Nars Orgasm and Kat Von D lipgloss in Stormy. At least I wasn't selfish?

>.>;;

So tomorrow I'll be going to Herald Square and Time Square with my two possible three most loved men in my life; my baby, my hubby and possible my brother. I need to go to Victoria's Secret...and a few other places. Hopefully I'll remember my camera. I want to take plenty of pictures.

<3


Update on IQQU Products:

So far I'm still testing them out. I already used the Skin Rejuvenator, Jasmine Rice Scrub and the Acne Serum....the Replenishing cream I just started using it...
I must say absolutely love the Jasmine Rice Scrub. It feels light and fluffy like whthip cream in your hands but once I massage it over my face it feels a bit grainy and creamy....and it seems so good.

<3>Seriously it smells delicious. Every time I use it I feel like eating it. I forgot what kind of cookie dough it reminds me of...I'll write it on my next post....for some reason it slipped my mind I was just talking about this with my brother...

Anyways The Skin Rejuvenator feels wonderful as well. I use about 2 pumps on my face. It leaves my skin feeling nice and smooth. I don't have acne but I do get occasional pimps the Acne Serum does keep the pimp at bay. Whenever I see one sprouting I put a thin layer of the Acne Serum and the the Skin Rejuvenator. By the time I look at myself later that day I don't see it anymore. The Replenishing Cream...I can't say much about it since I used it today. I need to use it more, but it does feel nice.


Current Obsession:
IQQU Jasmine Rice Scrub
Softlips
Stila Kajal Eyeliner-Oynx


Thanks for reading.

I brought a few things <3

Hey Everyone,

I completely thought I lost my camera a few days ago...but my son threw it under the couch in the living room.

^ ^;;

He seems to really like throwing stuff everywhere...signs of things to come?

xD

My son loves watching certain commercials. I mean loves. Once it comes on he immediately turns to look at it. It's the funniest thing in the world.

He could be playing or nearly sleeping and if one of those commercial pops up... he's total attention is on it. Once it's done he goes back to whatever he was doing. If I even try to block he's view he turns until he could see it.

xD

<-- This is how he got when I blocked him to take a picture. It's the cutest pictures. <33

So I ordered a few things about a week ago, I just got them today. Well...a friend of mine has been raving about IQQU products. She loves them so much she told me I should try them. When IQQU had their Black Friday sale I ordered a few of their products. I'm not using them just yet, but I will very soon....I need to finish the creams I have now. I don't like switch it without finishing the ones I'm using now....though it is tempting.

I love watching Michelle Phan's
videos. I love them, but I never gotten around to actually trying her products...the packaging seems great but I have to test the actual product....hopefully it's not disappointing....

I also purchased a few coastal Scents products...the color corrector, concealer and a few gel liners


I've been mixing the color corrector with my Mac concealer...which seems to work for me....I dunno if that's how it is used....I doubt it.

Anyways...I'll get on the IQQU products soon...I don't want to get too excited though.

=3

Thanks for reading.

Freezing cold, rainy weekend x.X

x.X

The weekend weather was horrible....freezing and raining...agh...

Oh on Saturday morning I woke up at 4am so that I could get ready to go to church. December 12 is the day of the Virgin de Guadalupe, it's a huge deal in Mexico. Usually there are mananitas and they are basically singing to her. I wish I could say we got there on time....or that at least we made it to the mass but we didn't....waking my husband and son is extremely difficult. Once they were up and ready we went to church. We thought that the mananitas was over and the mass was about to begin but that wasn't the case. Tha mass wasn't until 6:30 pm and the mananitas did end. I did take pictures of the alter though. It was so beautiful, there were roses everywhere.

I remember going to church really early when I was a little girl, I hated waking up early so it was difficult for me to enjoy the mariachis singing. Until I was a little older I started loving it. I think I love the feeling of everyone getting together to sing and praise someone they love.

It was horrible on Sunday. The whole day was raining and it was cold. My husband did have work on Saturday nor Sunday so we stayed home and cooked. So it was nice, we cooked together eggs. I know it's nothing special, but doing something together and eating it is wonderful. We barely are together and if we are we don't spend so much time doing something together so when we do it feel ....I dunno beautiful, wonderful, special....I love my husband so much and my son of course.

I started a workout routine today. I've barely workout since my pregnancy, it was a bit delicate....I didn't want to worry my husband so I didn't tell him....when my son was born I wasn't sure how to incorporate the workout with my hectic life. Now seems like the perfect time, and need more strength to carry my son around.

xD

I've lost enough weight to look perfectly fine, but I feel that I need to be much more toned....especially my abs. I think breastfeeding did help me a lot.

Just a Few Cute Thoughts...sort of... <3



Hey Everyone,

It's so cold today, it feels like it's under 10 degrees Fahrenheit,

colder than yesterday.
So cold that my mom and hubby told me to stay home...the store seem to be too cold because the heater is acting funny...No one in this house wants my baby to get sick...he very....very loud...I mean very loud. My-ears-hurts load....

x.X


The other day I was watching so many "What's in my purse" videos and thought I have so of those stuff but I also have diapers, wipes and other baby stuff....so I played around with my hubby and said maybe I should do a "What's in my purse (Mommy Edition)".

xD

I also told him about DulceCandy's "Outfit of the day" and said I should do a "Baby outfit of the day."

I thought it was cute but I highly doubt anyone would watch it.

:3

I might just do it for the hell of it...like one of those videos that your kids watch when they get older and be like "Mom put that away it's embarrassing!"

Hehe....but anyways my sons seems to always like pre-bathtime fun. He laughs so hard when my hubby or bro play with him when I'm setting up the baby tub. It's way to cute no to take pictures...you know what I think I know why my mom has so many baby pictures of my brother and I...I love taking pictures of my boy. I also love buying him stuff so much. I know that if I go out and see a super cute outfit for my son I buy it...even if I have plans to buy myself something I always chose him over me.


You know Christmas in New York looks beautiful. I hope to go to Manhattan sometime soon to take pictures and buy a few things. I just like going for no real reason. Their are these super cute mini tent store type thingys setup in Bryant Park and in Union Square. They sell clothes and other cute things...Christmas decorations too!

Anyways, thanks reading!

Horrible Nightmare Thingy....Amoung Other Things


Hey everyone,

^ ^

The other day I had a horrible nightmare thingy. I had a dream that I was home putting away some clothes while my baby was in his crib playing with his Cookie monster. I left him alone to get my phone and when I came back he was gone. I panicked in my dream , and called my hubby from another room and the phone kept saying 'This number does not exist'. So I went into the room with my baby's crib. The crib wasn't there, then I started crying. I called my mom, my brother and everyone I knew and everyone told me I didn't have a baby. And then I woke up because my baby was crying. You can imagine I was in tears...That was just horrible ....thinking I won't see my baby again makes me want to cry. My heart goes out to anyone who loses their baby.

....

Let me change the topic...

I brought my baby the cutest hat.

<3


Clearly he's outgrowing that already....but it was just so cute I couldn't resist. <3>

<33




<-- Random baby picture

I've been wanting to go shopping for the longest time...You know motherhood has definitely change the way I want to dress. I use to dress with fitted shirts and baggy pants for most of my life and before my pregnancy I started wearing more ..."girly"..."female appropriate"...well I dunno what to call it. But my style has changed alot...But I don't think it's all because of my baby, it might be me being more confident or grown. Maybe?

Anyways thank you for reading.

It's really cold. x.X

Oh my goodness today is so cold. I was suppose to go to my soccer game today but it was too cold to take my son out...I don't want him to get sick, if he does then I'm the one caring for him all night.

x.X

Not the easiest thing to do. My son weighs about 25 lbs and his only 10 months...well three more days until he's 10 months but still...not easy to carry a baby boy that doesn't want to lie down because he has a fever. Thankfully that only has happen twice since he was born. The doctor says he's very healthy and strong, though I know this already because he hits to hard. Either way I bundled him up and took him outside for a short while because we were hungry and needed to buy something.


He seemed to be more than happy to leave the house...His daddy was sleeping in still...he was out with the guys last night
...

>.>
...

so he seems to think he can sleep all day

...

Anyways
....

I love my neighborhood Little Italy of the Bronx, everyone is always friendly. The bakeries are so wonderful. I love the smell of baked bread, it makes my mouth water. <3 I brought issue of Marie Claire today just 'cuz I felt like reading something. I haven't been able to buy a book for like about a year. Actually I'm thinking about going to Union Square to go to Forever 21, Sephora, Babies "R" Us and Barnes and Noble. I've save up to go too, hopefully the Sephora there has Fekkai's Luscious Curls and Living Proof's No Frizz Wave Shaping, Curl Defining Styling cream.

o.o

Anyways thank you for reading.

First Post

Well this is my first post. To be honest I'm making this blog so that I can write my experience with my son and many other things that might come up. I want to be able to have something written that doesn't take so much space like a book. Collecting books seems to bother my hubby so I figure this won't take up much space. I'm going to post random things and I'll try to do it daily. Anyways thanks for reading.
