When I first started this blog I inboxed a friend of mine about her blog, where did she start, any recommendations etc. Well she told me about Influenster which is similar to bzzagent and smiley360. I signed up and recently got chosen to review a product !!
I was sent 2 big size bottles of Palmolive Soft Touch dish soap, one for me and one for a friend along with coupons all for free. I was sent Aloe and the Vitamin E one. I chose Aloe for myself and gave the other to my mother. As for the coupons I handed them out to family,friends and a stranger :-) I was like the coupon fairy !
The dish soap is great, it kept my hands from drying out and actually improved the softness of them. I do lots of dishes and bottles thanks to my little one. I also did dishes at my mother's so I used the Vitamin E one as well. I freaking love the scent of that one, it reminded me of fresh clean laundry. I have already purchased some for the near future.
You should check out influenster.com who knows what "voxbox" you will be chosen for !

Bucket List
I have always thought I didn't really have a ”bucket list ” but it dawned on me the other day, I DO in fact have one !
Almost everyone wants to travel at some point in their lives, I am one of them. Therefore one of my bucket list items is travel to all of the states in the U.S, while I Hawaii I want to swim with the sea turtles, that would be the second item on my list ! Another must travel destination is England and last but not least Italy.
Another thing I would like to do is run in a Disney marathon. This will take a lot of hard work since I am not a runner nor am I in shape.. I better fet on it.
This is simple but I want to knit a blanket. Sounds simple right ?!
My list may not be long but these are things I would like to accomplish. What's on your bucket list ?

How quickly time goes
My baby celebrated her First birthday this past Saturday on June 1st. I still cannot believe it has already been a year since she has been on this earth. She amazes me day after day. I wish I could keep her this small forever.
I sat down and reflected about this past year, she has learned so much, from sitting up on her own to feeding herself. Instead scrambling to figure out what is wrong when she cries, I can pin point what the issue is by the way she is crying or by her pointing to what she wants. Sleep has not really been an issue with us but it has gotten that much better. And well the clothing has gotten cuter as well.
As another year passes she will be amazing me even more. I still have walking and more talking in store. And for me to amaze her with books and knowledge and new experiences. I love my kids from the bottom of my heart and look forward to yet another year !

Smiley Mission Part Two
I mentioned last week that I was on four missions for Smile360.com, well here is part two !
My third mission is from Centrum Flavor Burst Adult multivitamins. These come in two flavors, wild grape and mixed fruit. I personally tried the grape ones. They are not too bad if I do say so myself. But be careful if you have little ones in the house since they do resemble candy. These kind of reminded of me of Flintstones vitamins I had when growing up ! Here is a link for you to get a coupon for $2.00 off and to get more information

My last mission is for Oxi Clean 2n1 stain fighter detergent. Smile360 sent me a $10 Walmart gift card to buy a 66 ounce bottle of the detergent. As you know I have a baby and that comes with lots of stains, sometimes gross stains ! I used it to tackle some of my toughest such as dried up sweet potatoes on a bib. It got it off, all of it not a trace of sweet potatoes. I am quite happy with the results and not having to pre-treat because I really do not have the time for that. Here is a link if you would like more info.

All of these opinions are my own. I was not paid however I did receive the Centrum samples for free and a free gift card to pick up the detergent for ..you got it free !!

Happy Mother's Day
What a difference a year makes, last year on Mother's Day I was in the hospital starting a week long stay due to my kidneys not properly working while pregnant. This year I spent the whole day with both of my daughters and my mother at an amusement park.
I couldn't have asked for a better day, sun came out, the park wasn't too crowded, wasn't to hot or cold and the baby was an angel. We all laughed together, rode some rides and has some yummy treats. It was a great bonding day.
Day to day life is so stressful due to work and well life in general, it's important to take a time out to enjoy and appreciate your family. I hope every mom out there took time out of their day to enjoy their family.
Happy Mother's Day !

Quickie
I must tell you that I am obsessed...obsessed I tell you with Clinique Chubby Sticks for the eyes ! Perfect for mom's on the go or even for the makeup impaired. Swipe it, smudge with finger and go. And the best part, they are only $16.
I scored on recently and cannot get enough of it. I had stopped wearing makeup actually towards the end of my pregnancy, I just had zero energy and under so much stress. I recently started wearing it again and also started paying more attention to my skin lately since I am no longer a spring chicken ( I am getting off track here ) anyway I went into Macys to get some moisturizer from Clinique and noticed it was bonus time so I bought a chubby stick in order to get the bonus and fell in love with first swipe.
Try it, trust me !

Smiley Missions Part 1
It has been quite a busy May so far, I am on three excuse me four missions for smiley360.com ! All products received from smiley360 were given to me for free, the opinions are all my own thoughts and views. I will make this post a two part series !
I was given a full size tube of Arm and Hammer Sensitive tooth paste. It worked well when it came to the sensitive part but I could not get paste the medicine like taste. Once I stopped using it though my teeth were sensitive once again to really cold things. I have since passed on the rest of this tooth paste to my father who seems to really like it. If you would like more information on this tooth paste and want a coupon please click the following link: http://smiley360.com/1441162.cfm
My second mission was from Seventh Generation, this so far has been my favorite mission. I have always seen these products in Target but was too stingy to buy them well now I do ! I received baby lotion, baby hair and body wash, laundry detergent, hand cream for myself, dish detergent and body wash for myself. All products are plant based and hypoallergenic. My baby has sensitive skin and this worked fabulous on her ! No rash or breakouts. I missed the "baby" scent though. As for the other products, the detergent and dish soap both cleaned well.I have yet to use the hand lotion. If you want more info on Seventh Generation and their products please click the following link:
