My baby is finally feeling better, thank goodness! My baby is finally feeling better, thank goodness! I'm going to be honest, I am exhausted. The emotional toll this week has taken on me has just made me a new level of tired. 

I saw something the other day and it really stuck with me. 

Nobody talks about this when you are thinking about having kids. They talk about the financial piece and the how it's going to change your life piece. But nobody talks about the risk you take by having something you love so much and all the worry that comes with it. 

It's a risk every day to have your whole heart walking around, and going to school and picking up illnesses. There is so much worry and stress that comes with it.

But on the other hand, what a privilege it is to have something you love that much. I have never loved anything the way I love this little boy.

While sometimes the emotions, intrusive thoughts, worry and stress get the best of me, I am grateful every second of every day that I get to be this perfect, beautiful tiny human's mom.

Thanks for all the sweet messages of encouragement this week. It's so nice to know I'm not alone. I'm very grateful for all of you!

What’s The Deal With Microneedling at Home


microneedling at home

Let’s talk about microneedling shall we? Maybe we should start with what it is…

Microneedling stimulates the skin and induces rejuvenation deep in the skin. Tiny needles pass over your skin and then moisturizers, serums, and oils are applied. Your cells respond to the stimulation and the natural rejuvenation process starts immediately. The result is firmer, smoother skin.

You can have a microneedling service professionally done. That isn’t done with a roller, it is done with a tool that moves up and down. It’s also a more powerful process so you will see results. But for a light minor version, you can do microneedling at home! I use the GloPRO from BeautyBIO.

Before we break down the process, let’s do some FAQs.

Does it hurt? Nope, not at all. It’s seriously painless.

How often should you do it? I do it 2-3 times a week, but it can be used daily.

When can you see results? It depends, but it has been clinically tested to show results within 30 days.

How much pressure should you apply? Light pressure. You can let the tool do the work for you.

How should you care for your tool? You can fill the empty spritzer bottle provided with isopropyl alcohol. If you don’t purchase the set you can just use a spray bottle. After each use, spray your attachment and let air dry. Store in a clean environment. If you purchase the GloPRO, it comes with a storage case that you can keep it in.

I purchased a microneedling set from BeautyBio. My GloPRO kit includes:

–The Balance: this is a pH balance cleanser that gently restores natural pH balance. It also preps your skin for maximum absorption and removes make-up!

–The GloPRO: this the microneedling regeneration tool that stimulates skin’s natural regenerative process. It creates bouncy new skin cells and enhances product absorption. This tool also vibrates for additional stimulation and cell turnover.

–The Nightly Deluxe Mini: this is a peptide filling serum that organically identifies and repairs damage deep within the skin. This serum helps fill and plump the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

–The Ultimate Deluxe Mini: This is a hydrating vitamin cream that helps brighten and even skin tone with natural vitamin C. It is also rich in natural plant extracts that help to retain moisture and repair dull and dry skin.

There are several different attachments for different parts of the body: face (restores volume and targets wrinkles), body (smooth dimpling and firms uneven skin), eye (rescues tired eyes and lifts crepey skin), lips (plumps pout and smooths lip lines).

The steps for microneedling:

1. Cleanse with The Balance. Just wash your face. Easy as that!

2. Use a prep pad to prepare and condition your skin. The set comes with some, but you can purchase more!

3. Use your GloPRO in vertical, horizontal, and diagonal directions. Use light pressure for 60 seconds in each target area.

4. Apply The Nightly to enhance your skin and then finish with The Ultimate Moisturizer.

Are you familiar with microneedling?

    The name sounds intimidating, so it’s hard to believe it’s painless! But I am intrigued.

    I had microneedling in a spa and loved the results! Not sure i would be brave enough to try it at home! But I definitely love the results i got!

    its so important to know what gauge needles to use if you’re doing it at home. it can be painful and dangerous if not done correctly!

Today we are making a Valentine's Day waffle platt Today we are making a Valentine's Day waffle platter with nutella filled uncrustable waffles. I do realize waffles don't have crusts, but it helps keep the Nutella inside! 

How to make them:
-First, mix your batter and dye it pink with a little bit of food coloring. 
-Then make your waffles, I found this cute @bydash mini waffle maker for Valentine's Day!
-Once they are done, spread a little nutella on a waffle.
-Add a second waffle to the top and use a heart shaped uncrustable cutter to make an uncrustable waffle. 
-Arrange these on a cute plate, add some strawberries, serve and enjoy!

What's your vote on Nutella? Delicious or overrated?
