9 week ultra sound

Today was ultrasound day. It was on my mind all night and I was even dreaming about it last night.  I was so ready to have this done with for the day.  There was a two hour late start for the girls today because it is sooo cold.  It is literally -45 degrees with wind chill right now.  So I got them up made them some cinnamon rolls and drove them to school.   Then went straight down the road to the clinic.  

Things look good here is a pic of the little bugger.  It is kinda upside down with the dead down and body up.

It was wiggling and its heart rate was 176 bpm.  There was no sign of the subcorneal hematoma.  So we are doing good.  I am measuring two days different I was last time too.  So it said I was 8w 6d.  Which is more what I figure with my calculations :)  So things are good just waiting to hear from the doc. I might try to squeeze in a nap quick then pic the girls up at the bus stop so they don't have to walk home two blocks in this and get them a after school goody (as my dad would call it).  Have a good day guys.

Anniversary present

Hey guys I had to share what my sister made me for my anniversary when we were at the craft fair this weekend!  I love it.  She took the infinity sign and hung me and hung some hand stamped initials from it.

I have been wearing this bad boy nonstop since she gave it to me :)  Her shop is right here.  These are now on there as well as some of her other awesome things and remember it is all customized to what you want it to say :)  Also like her facebook page and check it out she has lots more designs up there. :)

reviews l'oreal telescopic carbon black/ rimmel scandaleyes, revlon naked foundation

 Okay so It has been a bit but I picked up some new makeup to try.  I am trying 4 different things today, relvon nearly naked foundation, L'Oreal infinite shadow quad in subtle berries, L'Oreal telescopic carbon black intense mascara, and Rimmel scandaleyes mascara.  I am using both one on each eye so I can tell which I like better and whether they flake smudge and what not.  I have on my new berry lip whisper too.

 So here is the look I will break it down further for you.  :) (this is on my natural lashes with them uncurled btw)

This is the telescopic carbon black mascara.  I have heard great things about this and had to try it.  It has more of a comb then a brush for the wand.  Here are the lashes with the L'Oreal mascara. Right off the bat this one does give some great length but I can see it can get clumpy and maybe spider leggy if you aren't careful.

Okay and on the other eye I have Rimmel Scandal eyes in black.  I haven't heard much about this but I had a dollar off coupon that was going to expire so I just sorta guessed and grabbed this one.  I would say it is great it isn't quiet as crunchy as the other but still gives great length and volume.  We will see how they stand up through the day.

Here is the eye shadow quad I grabbed in subtle berries.  It was on clearance for 3.59 and since I had two coupons and they were buy one get one half off I had to try it.  It is exactly what it says very subtle berry colors.  I like it.  I think it would be a great color for a valentines look.

Okay so I wore the look all day.  When I went to take it off the mascaras both took about the same amount of work to get off.  Neither of the mascaras had smudging or flaking.  So end of the day they both gave great volume and length, they were both nice and black, and neither flaked or smudged.  So they both are winners to me.  The rimmel one was 5.99 and I had a 1$ coupon so it was less then 5$ in the end for me,  the L'Oreal one was 9.99 with a 1$ coupon it still wound up costing 8.99.  So I will have to see if one runs out quicker then the other. 

The revlon nearly naked foundation was decent.  It had a dewy finish with out being greasy, decent coverage, and it didn't seem to cling to dry skin which is big for me.  It isn't the best foundation I have ever used but it isn't the worst.  I would say it is up there with my L'Oreal dream lumi but not as good as my maybelline 24 hour.  :)

The L'Oreal shadow didn't really have much color pay off or staying power.  I would skip that.  I am glad it was basically free for me :)  So I guess worth a shot right.

Here is a pic today I am looking smaller then yesterday :)  I was pretty bloated and icky yesterday.  So not looking quiet so big :)

Any way I am finishing up the post at the end of the day and time to snuggle up in bed and get some sleep because tomorrow morning I have my next ultra sound :)  I will post when I get done :) Have a good night guys.

6th Anniversary

Today is me and my sweet Benjis 6th wedding anniversary.  I am so glad I married this man 6 years ago!! One of the best decisions of my life!

 He is my best friend, the father to my children, and the love of my life.  He makes me laugh.  We have soo much fun together.  He takes care of me and does anything he can for me.  He truly is a selfless amazing person.  I am soo lucky to have him!!  I don't know what I would do with out this man.  Don't get me wrong things haven't always been easy.  It isn't always sunshine and rainbows, we have had rough times and done things we regret like anyone else.  But this man is worth the rough times and more.  I can honestly say I love him more now then I did 6 years ago today when I married him. 

 On top of it all he is the best dad that I know and I couldn't be prouder to be carrying his child!

If anyone deserves another child it is the amazing man in this picture right here.  Happy Anniversary Benji I love you with all my heart.

mani monday!

 Todays mani monday was rough.  I feel like I use the same polishes over and over.  I am getting sick of the darker fall colors.  I am still over red from the holidays, but yet I feel weird busting out my more springy colors seeing as the temp here in MN right now is 32 degrees.

So I tried all kinds of colors and went with this...

 It is wet and wilds through the grape vine and on the accent nails I put a coat of china glaze lux and lush. It is one of the hunger games collection and is from district 1 luxury.  It has these really beautiful opalescent flecks.

It is pretty not light and springy, not dark and fall like, not drab and wintery just a good year round color.

Well I hope you guys are having a great day!

Trip to the endocrinologist

I had a appointment at the endocrinologist today in Sioux Falls S.D.   My hubby took the day off to help me which I am soo glad he did because I have never drove there and It would have been ugly.  As was it went great.  My endocrinologist was amazing.  I literally couldn't have asked for a better experience with a doctor.  Not only was he knowledgeable,  down to earth, and took time to explain things, but he didn't rush in and out like he had much more important things going on and he didn't leave me siting and waiting around either.  I don't think I waited more then 5 minutes the whole time!  The appointment was a hour.  He taught me everything I needed to know and I went on my way with changed meds, some samples, and a much better understanding of my thyroid disease.  I seriously recommend that anyone who who has a thyroid issue (esp. pregnant women) ask to be referred to a specialist this is what they do and they are much more thorough and educated in it

Any who then me and my hubby looked up target because I wanted some of this..

It is supposed to be a good dupe for bioderma which I love and is quickly becoming holy grail for me but I don't love the price a little 2oz bottle cost me 9$ plus shipping!!!  Ingrid/ Missglamorazzi said that this is a good drug store dupe and it is only like 4$ a bottle for a big bottle!  So worth a shot.  I also needed to grab a new bra.  Mine are getting to be too small.  So I only had patience to find one that fit because I was starving. (had to go up 2 cup sizes but still not as big as I was before my breast reduction lol)

While I tried on bra's my hubster looked up close restaurants on his phone and we decided on Fudruckers.

I had a giant 1/2 pd. burger with cheddar and a strawberry milk shake.  Ugh I way should have gone for 1/4 pd if anything maybe just the milk shake lol.  It was sorta nice to get a quick mini date meal with the hubby. He is soo super supportive and amazing.  This week is just rough soo far.  I feel like I have the worst of hangovers ever.  I am nauseous and exhausted 75% of the day.  If I don't eat enough I am nauseous if I eat to much I get nauseous.  I am on my 3rd zofran for the day and feel like it is hardly touching it.  Oh well enough complaining.  Off to lay on the couch and be worthless some more.  Thanks for listening people. :)
