The last few weeks have been very difficult for my family. We lost two very very loved family members within a week of each other. We are currently taking this time to celebrate their lives.

Hey y'all! Let's get real for a minute.

I have been looking for something to do about this icky annoying psoriasis, after spending hours and hours looking online for something that even seemed reliable and natural I found something that has helped ALOT.

A little back story:

I went to the doctor and they gave me a cream, I used it and then a few months later it stopped working; 😭 again went to the doctor and they reccomended shots, but the chances of pregnancy were slim and I was already having difficulties carrying due to being RH negative. I didn't want to risk it anymore.

Bedtime Rub:

•Sweet Almond Oil

•Vitamin E oil

•Frankincense

•Lavender

Every night before bed I apply it to ALL my areas that are ick. 😣(I know it's not ick but I really cannot stand the sight of them, they cause me to be self conscious about what I wear and let's face it it is getting WAY too hot for Jeans and sweats)

So Soft Skin Bath Salts

•Epson salt

•Frankincense

•Lavender

and tomorrow taking a go with oat bath soaks

🤯 DID YOU KNOW YOU CAN PUT OATS IN BATH BOMBS?!

AND

HEALTHY BABY:

*Frankincense

*Lemon

TINY TEETHER:

*Copaiba

*Lavender

SLEEPY BABY:

*Lavender

*Cedarwood

I use Healthy Baby in the mornings, Tiny Teether as needed, and Sleepy Baby at night during bedtime routine.

They have been helping so so so much that this coming week I am making THREE other roller bottles for BKJ.

😂 It would seem that I went a little overboard making rollers bottles for the family. With BK coming home, I want to keep the icks out of the house. With the seasons changing plus BK being gone for so long. There is no telling what kinds of ick he is going to bring home 😖😷

So we have:

•immune support

•happy tummy

•seasonal support

FOR BKJ:

•Tiny Teether

•Healthy Baby

In the pouch:

•Lavender

•Pan-away

•Stress away

•Seasonal support blend

•Immune Support blend

My days are filled with chaos, laughter, tears, and most importantly love. With BK's job it pulls him away from home more than we would like, so at times I feel like a single mother. This is my circus; now it is time for you to meet my monkey's:

♡BKJ~ He is my sweet and caring, loveable hurricane. He will be 10 months old on the 17th of this month 😭 (he is growing up way too fast) He loves to watch Super Why, Octonauts, G-force, and Tarzan. He loves to explore, and anything outdoors.

♡Babygirl~ She is my protective Pitt of the family. If it comes to me and Jr. She is right there in the middle. She is hyper and as loveable as can be, and is Jr's best friend(She is our rescues) and she has only been in the family about 19 months.

♡T.J~ He is our chihuahua (who thinks he is a great Dane) he has been apart of this growing like a weed family for going on 4 years! He is 10 years young, and super protective of me (when I was pregnant with BKJ even my BK couldn't randomly come up and touch me. He had to speak first) he is laid back, and loves to cuddle whenever wherever.

So here is all my babies! We maybe a little chaotic, but at the end of the day there is so much love in this house to go around.

What about you? Do you have a little circus going on of your own?

Motherhood is a choice you make everyday, to put someone else's happiness and wellbeing ahead of your own, to teach the hard lessons, to do the right thing even when you're not sure what the right this is.. and to forgive yourself, over and over again, for doing everything wrong.

Today had been a very busy day. Between teething pains😭 and trying to get the house ready for BK's homecoming🥰 this week, I have been nonstop.

Currently BKJ is passed out (I mean he is actually snoring) and I just want to clean EVERYTHING! 😫

It took giving BKJ a Lavender bath (DIY bath salts), and then diffusing a combo of Lavender and Copaiba Essential Oils.

I'm going to have to make him special bedtime bubble bath! It is going to be so much fun 🎉❤

I JUST CANNOT WAIT FOR HOMECOMING THOUGH!! 🤩😍🥰

This time around has been more difficult than all the rest. BKJ is constantly calling for 'Da-Da' and looking in all of BK's normal spots in the house 💔😭 it breaks my heart, and on top of it all I AM SO READY FOR THIS TO ALL BE DONE AND OVER WITH FOR A WHILE! Like "Come on already, August. Hurry up!"

Until next time

INSIDE LOOK AT THE MESS I CALL A HOME

Today is all about getting everyone's schedules ready for the week, planning fun activities for the week to follow, and even going over that horrible thing called a budget 😖😫 (SAVE ME NOW)

As you can see EVERYTHING is EVERYWHERE! I honestly have not had the chance to even spot clean since we woke (back) up from this mornings early rise.

Currently BKJ is playing in his playroom minding his own, and I'm staring at all of our plans that need to be worked in to my busy stay-at-home mom schedule 😫 I could really go for a coffee right about now.

Instead of actually getting a cup, I went for my diffuser 🥰 I'm absolutely in love with this little guy. I threw in a few drops of peppermint and lemon and am getting that extra oomph that I need.

So much better than that sugar rush (that I really want) and it benefits more than one purpose.

Lemon helps boost your focus

Peppermint helps with seasonal allergies and sinuses

Plus it smells amazing!

BKJ woke me up at 0500 this morning 😖 he is teething something bad, he is fussy, he doesn't want to sleep or eat, or even have a bottle half the time. So we've been laying in bed (me silently hoping for some kind of sleep soon) watching one of his favorite shows.

FINALLY about an hour ago (08.30) he started showing signs of being ready for that nap I've been hoping for 😊

But before he gives in completely, he likes to try and keep himself awake by falling back on the bed, falling forward and giggling about it. One of his favorite things to do to fight sleep is look out the bedroom window that our bed is pushed up against. Well during one of his "throwing myself forward" sessions, he headbutted me 😫 Square in the nose! But that's not all, somehow he managed to slam my lip into my top teeth; busting it in the process! So here I am my lip finally stops bleeding, my nose is no longer throbbing, and BKJ is FINALLY down for the count 😴

Honestly life would not he as full without him, he brings so much light into my life that I'm starting to fear the dark. He is my miracle, and my world. No matter what happens I'll always cherish these moments.

BKJ stood for the first time tonight 😍 I am over the moon! We have been working on this for weeks now 😖 and he just was not having it! But tonight, he pulled HIMSELF up while watching SuperWhy 🥰 If only BK was here to see it 💔

Hey everyone! The names Chel, I'm a stay at home mom and wife. I get through my day with the help of my little one (BKJ), and hubby (BK).

My day involves so much, from the dogs running wild, to my husband leaving for work out of town for months at a time. With patience and lots of laughter, I make it through to another day. Without these two goofballs and our very energetic furbabies life would not be complete.

So follow along while I share our crazy life! 🥰
