Break from No Poo!

Back in April I decided to try the No Poo Method of washing my hair. I had heard wonderful things about it and did just a little blog reading before I started. I was out of shampoo and didn't want to go spend money on more if I didn't have to.

After about a month of the transitional period it finally started to show some promise. My hair looked great and it was so easy to style. I was loving it! I was saving money and time!

Then summer officially hit and it was time to start going to Water World where I planned to spend the majority of our time. We were going 3 to 4 times a week for the morning to keep the boys entertained and to wear them out so it would be do bad being home all afternoon and evening packing. And this is where I started to have problems.

I'd come home from Water World and shower and I noticed my hair start to get more and more greasy again. I was so frustrated! I didn't want to go and spend money on junk shampoo from the store because I was really loving the No Poo but I didn't know what else to do. I figured I'd just try to keep my hair out of the water as much as possible and hopefully that would help. It didn't! I was feeling defeated.


So it was time to order again from doTerra at the beginning of July. As I was flipping through the catalog figuring out what I was going to buy I noticed their shampoo and conditioner! So I figured I'd give it a try. As a distributor for doTerra I figured that I could always tell people my experience with it and then go back to No Poo after the big move and we are settled in and I have some time to do a little more research on why my hair was freaking out.

So what did I discover...doTerra's hair products are AMAZING! I can't believe how great my hair feels and the amazing shine it has and it's still super easy to style. I only wish it was as cheap as baking soda and apple cider vinegar. Although I was able to save some money by ordering it through the Loyalty Rewards Program it still isn't as inexpensive as No Poo which was my only true reason for switching in the first place.

So if you are looking for amazing hair products doTerra's are great and I'm speaking purely from experience not as a sales person. Head on over here to read more about the shampoo and conditioner or here to order yourself some!

I will be back to the No Poo method when I'm done with these bottles because I did love it and after just a little more research I discovered the problem I was having was washing my hair to often. However, if it turns out that I don't like it I will be back to doTerra's hair products because I don't think I could ever use the junk from the stores again!

Happy Father's Day!

Today is father's day and most people are getting together and celebrating with family. Dads, grandpas and uncles all celebrating together the joys of being a father. Maybe getting a chance to relax and enjoy just sitting around watching the kids play and being surrounded with family. That's what father's day has always looked like for us. We would always gather at my parents house. First, with my grandparents when I was growing up for dinner and a day of enjoying being together. Then as I grew older my sister and I would make sure to spend the day with our dad. Then we got married and had kids of our own and the tradition continued. We would bring all the kids and enjoy BBQing at my parents house enjoying time together. This year things are different.We can't just jump in the car and head over for a BBQ. We can't sit around on the couch or on the patio talking and laughing together. This year we are 12 hours away from where I've always been for father...

The ABC's of Our Family

I got a great idea from this lovely  blog  about doing a ABC photo book through out the year. Each week taking one photo that goes along with a letter. I have seen lots of great ideas for different photo blog ideas but all seem like to much work and something that I know I wouldn't be able to do. This one seems reasonable for our crazy life.  So to start off I have chose a great picture that I took of Rex and M playing together one day when he got home from work. Rex is so ADORABLE in this picture I just knew this was what I had to use! Plus I already know what I'm using for next week even though the picture hasn't been taken yet.  So here it is.......ADORABLE Rex playing with his Daddy! Oh I just can't get enough of this guy. Also as a little side note to how adorable he is...he kept posing for the camera once I got. He didn't care that Mommy was watching him play and wouldn't even look at me but soon as the camera was out he had to keep turning and...

Bikini Body Mommy Challenge Update!

So we are starting week 8 (I think). It's been a few weeks since I have officially sat down and updated on how I have been doing. Week 6 I did pretty good. The 4 am workouts were starting to wear on me so I decided to try and get a workout in after my hubby left for work but before the kids got up. Some days that went OK and other days not so well. I did however get several workouts in with the boys awake and they went pretty well. Monkey tired to join in with me and it was quite fun to watch. Of course he couldn't keep up with the workouts and took many breaks but it was fun to have him involved. This week I plan to do cardio days at 4 am in the gym because they are easier than trying to complete in the house. But for the non-cardio days I will do them in the house in the morning. That way I'm not completely exhausted everyday. Now for week 7. I have no idea even what the workouts were for last week. I didn't even look once! I have good reason though. My hubby h...
