5 Things

Monday, January 20, 2014

Hello, everyone! I hope you all had a great weekend filled with family, friends, and relaxation. Somehow Monday is already here and it's the start of another week filled with anticipation for another weekend. Here are 5 things from my weekend!

On Saturday we went to my parent's home in Bentonville for lunch and they did not disappoint. My dad always spoils us with his cooking whenever we see them. It's gotten to the point to where even if they come to our house for a meal they bring the food to us! I didn't get the cooking gene unfortunately, but that just means I get to reap the benefits of my dad's out of this world culinary skills, so I think I'll be just fine.

I have this weird obsession with real estate and looking at homes. I don't quite know why but I absolutely love it. I'm always on Homes.com looking for my new favorite house and I had saved this one to my "Watched Homes" list. After we left my parents' Carson fell asleep in the car and I wanted to show TJ this home in Rogers just to check out the area. But I was in luck and they were actually having an open house! So TJ stayed in the car with Carson and let me peruse this house that we will not be buying anytime soon, or be able to afford anytime soon haha. If you want to take a look at this beautiful home click here!

Carson was still napping his little heart out after we left Rogers and I had a Friends & Family coupon to use at Ulta that expired that day so I stopped in there. I had been hearing my favorite YouTube beauty gurus Nicole Guerriero and Jaclyn Hill rave about Mario Badescu products and I wanted to try some out so I picked up The Regimen Kit which contains a face wash, toner, moisturizer, mask, and night cream. I also picked up the drying lotion which is supposed to zap problem spots overnight. So far I love the products but I'll do an in depth review after using them for a week so look out for that!

I've been letting these bad boys ripen up so I can make a batch of banana muffins. Now, as I stated above, I basically do not possess any cooking skills; about two years ago I made one or two successful batches of banana bread but ever since then it has been awful. Beginners luck maybe? I have tried countless different recipes with no luck but I am determined to make some good muffins! I'll let you know how my mission goes.

Last, but not least, is this sweet boy. Carson caught croup over the weekend and this is now the third time he has had it. It is probably my least favorite thing that he has ever caught. He had a high fever and was coughing so much that he actually projectile vomited all over me while sitting in my lap. It was everywhere, we're talking all the way from my hair down to my ankles, a very pretty sight. But after we both were cleaned up all he wanted to do was cuddle and I was able to capture a sweet moment of this mama's boy asleep in my arms. Nothing beats that.

I hope everyone else's week goes well and Monday treats you nicely! Have a good day!
