Obsessions and Confessions....

I decided I'm going to be posting a series of blogs, which I'll be calling [Obsessions and confessions] hence the title. If you missed my first confession of the year. You can read it on the Current Life and obsessions post. I'll link it here. 

My current obsessions are earrings. Not just any earrings, I'm loving exaggerated earrings. Tassels, long beaded strands, fluffy long feather-ish looking earrings. I used to have a collection of earrings, but I grew bored of wearing them. & I got rid of all of them! Currently only have three pairs. 
These are some of my favorites I found on the inter-webs. 

I bought these on poshmark, because you know I love supporting small businesses.

You can purchase the Loved earrings on @Notbillionaire's poshmark closet.  To find tassel earrings on poshmark, simply search for them on the search bar. There are many, many options at affordable prices. 



I own these Sugarfix by Baublebar in Cobalt. Which by the way the Cobalt color is currently on clearance. Shop them here.

 The rest of the earrings are from topshop. I'll link them all for you to shop; I love them all.

My confession today, is.... My son is five years old, and we still use baby lotion for him. I just love the baby powder smell. Although, it might seem that I want to keep him as my baby. (Even though he'll always be my baby!) I am happy that he is growing up and becoming more independent as each day passes.  Also I still use scent free laundry detergent for his clothes!!!! As a first time mom, I made the decision to use scent free laundry detergent.  I didn't want his sensitive baby skin affected, if I washed his clothes with regular detergents. However it's been 5 years already and I still can't seem to make the switch! Am I the only crazy mother doing these things. I have managed to switch to kids shampoo from baby shampoo.  That's a start, right?!? Feel free to let me know in the comments about any recommendations for lotions you prefer for your children. 

Also he has not shown any symptoms of rashes, overly dry skin, or sensitive skin. 

Thank you so much for reading my obsessions and confessions!

Five nights at freddy's 5th birthday party....

I know... I know... Five nights at freddy's aren't exactly the characters you'd expect a 4 or 5 year old would like. My son however is obsessed with these ugly looking characters. He has been watching their music videos and such for a couple months now. Therefore, his birthday party theme this year was obviously Five nights at freddy's. I opted to do it friendly and not scary with the "nightmare" version. For you mommas, who have kids obsessed with these characters. Here are some ideas for your theme party. We held the party at a local park. Set up tents, ice coolers, tables and chairs. Invitations... I like to be simple when it comes to invitations. I send out a custom made invitation through text messages or make an event on Facebook. (Most our family and friends are on there) When I say custom invitation, I mean custom made by me. 😁 Food... Since the characters like to eat pizza & Fred Bear Fazbear works at a pizzeria. (Or something) The ma...

Getting comfortable in my own skin...

This year I will be turning 30!!! Where and how that happened? I have no idea,,, What I do know, is that it has taken me a very long time to accept myself.  As a matter of fact, I'm currently still working on it.  Through the years I have struggled with learning to love myself.  Never completely content with my appearance.  Whether it was my teeth, face, features, body.  You name it!  In the past I have even contemplated getting surgery. What stopped me? The money of course! As well as the scary stories told by friends.  Which often times they hear from others.  Postpartum, I suffered from weight gain.  It took me years to loose the weight.  Even then, my body is not perfect.  Does that define me? Do my looks define me? Of course NOT! I know that; However that doesn't change the fact that I obsess over my weight, and constantly weigh myself. My point with all this rambling is, that it's never too late to learn to LOVE ...
