Hi There! & Happy Monday! 

I hope you all have a great start to the week! 

I wanted to share some of my favorite products from JohnsonBaby that I have been using for a while now with Belle! They are used pretty much everyday, and I find myself replenishing a lot and my empties were staring at me in my face so I thought, to share what has been working with us! 

Everyday when we get home from school or camp, since its summertime now – I always draw a bath for her. Even though we might go back outside in the afternoon when daddy gets home, she pretty much bathes twice a day! (talk about a clean tush!) She really loves “bubblebath time” – as soon as I pick her up, she’s already asking “Momma bubblebath?” So, I’ve tried all 3 Johnson Baby Bubble Bath Times, and quite frankly love them all. Pictured below is the blue original, but the purple for me is my favorite just because of the smell and its calming. But really all bubble baths from them are great! 

With bath time, we wash those pretty curls of hers, and if you know me, (I have straight hair) so taking care of curls was something new for me! I also enjoy using their “No More Tangles” shampoo + conditioner in one! Its smells so pretty & leaves her curls so bouncy! Before I blow dry her hair, I  normally use the “No More Tangles” detangle spray & I also use it when styling her hair for school/outtings! It really helps with the those curls! It smells great, and it helps ease combing through her hair.

Lastly, is the head to toe wash, which I take with me on our vacations everywhere! Its a great size, and it does everything in 1 bottle so it helps me save space in here luggage! I love the formula in it, and hello NO TEARS! This is what Johnson is known for as well along with their great formula consistency! Ive even used the head to toe for myself, when I’ve gotten “eye infections” – because of the No Tears, it helps clean out your eye ducts! * Just a little tip I thought to share! Whenever that happens, I get a cloth towel, warm water and the head toe and really lather up the towel and wash the eye! Random I know, but hey whatever helps! 

From when she was born, till now we have gone through quite a variety of products! And I can safely & honestly say, for the past year this is what we’ve been using and its been great for us! I’m excited to try their products with Julian when he arrives soon! Belle has had such a great outcome, I’m sure he will too! 1 more week, and he’s here with us god-willing! I hope his was of help for some of you mommas! 

Till the next post!

Hi There Friends! 

Its been quite some time that I have written here, things have been a little busy and I must admit I have had zero energy for anything! 

We are getting ready for Julians arrival, which means I’ve had lots to do around the house and in his room. Ive been organizing as much as I can so while Im recovering Hubby, My mom and Mother in Law know here to find things around the house they might need. 

Julian’s clothes and blankets are washed and put away. Below I included a picture of the kids cabinet in the kitchen and Julians closet so far. In his closet I found closet separators for his clothes that breaks it down by the months up till 24 months. His room for the most part is ready to go, only thing left is to “dress” his crib. Its an old cuban superstition, to not dress the bed until the baby arrives home, so naturally we are waiting for his arrival for that. His bottles and pacifiers have been washed, sterilized and put away! Pacifiers we are planning to use are NUK, I used them with Belle and she had a great experience so Im hoping the same for Julian. The glass bottles are actually from Belle when she was a newborn, just the nipples are new in package that I kept from when she was born. The brand is “Born Free”, however this line was discontinued. The Kitchen is full with snacks for belle and for us to have easily ready when I recover the first few weeks at home. Since I’m a C-Section, I went ahead and got my bag ready and registered for the hospital recently. Things are begining to fall into place, and I’m hoping for a smooth transition as much as possible. All I pray for everyday is that, we are both happy and healthy and everything else will be taken care of. 

As of now I’m feeling tired, ready to see our baby boy and anxious. Granted that I know what to expect, but its still a little nerve wrecking to think what our life will be with a hyper toddler and newborn in the house. Getting my Netflix and DVR Ready to watch some new shows since I will be home for quite some time! I have had a great pregnancy in comparison to my first. My first overall was great but towards the end with work related stress and travel, my blood pressure went up. This time around, I have been lucky enough to be home and my stress level is no where near what I experienced with Belle. 

I hope to be a little more active on here again and my social media posts once my energy level returns. Thank you for tuning in! Keep you all posted soon!
