Perfectly Imperfect Mom

First off I want to let you all know I have another giveaway that starts tomorrow! Make sure to check it out. Now onto my post...

I am loving my latest Glossy Box. Seriously this thing is awesome. I am dying over the blush. I never would have bought this myself so I was really excited when I put it on and it was the perfect color for summer. I have been wearing it non-stop. The body wash is freaking amazing as well. I am seriously obsessed with that too. This box was probably my second favorite next to my first one. Everything in it has already been used, ha!

Right now you can get a free Cheek & Lip Tint with any Glossy Box order! Use code: GIFT
Expires June 30th

I think I have an Etsy addiction. Tell me I am not alone! I have been just dying over some of these shops lately.

First of all who could say no to this adorable Live Life Anchored Baseball tee by The Printed Palette? I got one of these for Ace (pictures coming very soon) and I just love it. I am always a fan of really cute and stylish shirts for him.  They also have shirts for men and women so I may have to get some more for Bran and me.

The Printed Palette is offering my readers a discount code PIM10 so go check them out. They are ah-mah-zing!

Another shop I have found that is perfect for some Mommy jewelry is Bip & Bop. They have the best jewelry for Moms who want to have their child's initial or birth stone around their neck or wrist but don't want that super cheesy Mom charm. My favorite is the infinity bracelet with the initial and birth stone.

They are also offering my awesome readers a coupon code BIPANDBOP and it expires in 2 weeks so hurry over and order! 

*This is not a sponsored post. These are shops I genuinely like.

Back to Glossy Box, this month's theme was Winter Survival Kit and it is called The Man Repeller.  Already in love with the fabulous attention to details this box has. First of all the little silver box is freaking cute and inside is a little note that makes you feel like this box was sent with love from one of your besties. It also comes with the Glossy Box Magazine which has all the latest trends as well as beauty tips.
Next up are the awesome products.

Here is the detailed list...

- Professional Sebastian Potion 9 Wearable Styling Treatment
- Tarte High Performance Naturals Lipstick
- Narciso Rodriguez for Her Perfume Sample
- Sumptuous Extreme Last Multiplying Volume Mascara Sample
- fresh. Umbrian Clay Mattifying Serum Sample
- OPI Liquid Sand in Can't Let Go
- Le Metier De Beaute Replenishing Daily Solution SPF30 Sample

I would say all of that is worth the $21.00! 3 full size items and 4 samples is pretty good. The mascara sample is a perfect size for carrying in your purse.

Valentine's Day has always been a fun holiday for me. When I was little my Mom would always have a box of treats sitting at the kitchen table for us in the mornings, then we would go to school and had a party. I used to love it. As you get older you go through phases when you feel bummed you don't have a date but I always had fun with my girl friends.

This year as a Mom I am excited to celebrate with my family. Bran and I will probably do something on the weekend just us but on V-day we will be going out to eat as a family like we did last year.

I will also be co-hosting a giveaway with The Craft Crazy Mom, Maria! This girl totally rocks, you may remember her from here. I will be giving away a gift certificate to Au Natural Baby!

To add some excitement to the Valentine's Day festivities, Au Natural Baby will be having a SALE! Everything is on sale right now. I have some new items in stock that are perfect for Valentine's day. Ace will be wearing the red button up shirt. I am in love with it.

What are you plans for V-day?

Today Ace and I are staying home from work and school since I had a horrible sore throat and my little nugget has a swollen eye! Yesterday when I picked him up my sister and I noticed he had a bug bite on his forehead over his left eye and it was starting to swell. This didn't surprise me since he always gets swollen from bug bites. He had a low grade fever but overall seemed fine. He had dinner, a bath and played for a bit then I put him down for an early bedtime. He knocked out but I kept checking on him because of his fever and swelling but he was fine. This morning I had off because of my cold and I was going to bring Ace to school but when he woke up his eye was completely swollen shut and his forehead was swollen too.  They gave him a little benadryl and we were sent home so now my little nugget is playing and in a great mood.

If anyone loves Living Social as much as I do than head over to their site now because you get $5 off your order of $15 or more! WOOT! Use code SAVE5

I had to share this since I know many of us are starting the New Year off right! On Groupon they have two different Jillian Michaels work out DVD's! I know I have seen a lot of success with the 30 Day Shred from people on My Fitness Pal so I ordered the one with that one in it but the other one has some great choices as well. Each comes with 3 DVDs and they are only $20! You can't go wrong there!
