Mini Jewelmint Shop and Tell

I made another order from Jewelmint this past Sunday!  Jewelmint was having a labor day sale where the first 500 buys received a second Jewelmint piece for free but sadly I wasn't one of them.  However, I still bought the pieces that I wanted so I don't really mind.



The first piece I bought is the Mumbai Bracelet.

The Second piece that I bought is the Love That Binds Bracelet.

Bobbi Brown Mini Crystal Lip Gloss

A few weeks back Bobbi Brown's Facebook fan page had their Bobbi Brown Lip Gloss Sweepstake.  10,000 of her fans were randomly chosen to receive a sample of her Crystal Lip Gloss.  I was lucky enough to be one of them!

I got an email on the 25th of July saying that I was going to receive a mini Crystal Lip Gloss.  I was totally excited for it. In the email it said it was going to take 4 to 8 weeks for me to get my lip gloss but I didn't really mind that.  Today when I went to go check the mail...there it was waiting for me.  I'm so glad I'm getting a chance to try out one of Bobbi Browns products!

One Week Old

My little man turned one week old yesterday.  I didn't think time would fly this fast but I guess it did.  I'm so happy to be holding him in my arms.  He's so cute and adorable!

Baby Leonidus nearly every cries and when he does its usually because I'm giving him a bath or changing him.  I guess his daddy just sucks at changing him or something because his dad gets peed on every time he changes him.  Which is kind of hilarious but sad because it seems like his daddy doesn't know what to do with his own son...like he has to be told what to do in order to do it or he just stands there dumb struck.  So much for fatherly instinct.

Anyways on to baby talk.  Leonidus is starting to flake.  Yes, I said flake.  At first when I say him flaking I thought I had done something wrong in order for him to look like that.  I googled it and it said somewhere that it's just his protective layer from when he was inside the womb peeling.  I felt so much better after reading that little article.  Leonidus just recently started holding up his bottles.  Not necessarily holding up but he puts up his hands under the bottle to hold it in place.  He also grabs for his pacifier whenever it's about to fall out of his mouth too which is so cute because his hands are just so tiny.  I LOVE HIM!  He is my little bundle of joy!

Facebook Exclusive ELF Haul

Yes this is another mini ELF haul.  I promise this time I didn't buy as much as I did in my previous haul...I think.  Well anyways the point is I didn't get that many things and the sale was totally worth it.

I ordered on the 16th of August and I received my package on the 20th of August. A+ for shipping but FedEx left my package at the back door when they said it was at the front door.  I was freaking out all day thinking some one took my package after checking my front door and it wasnt there.  I didnt see my package until I went to take out the garbage later that day.  Although delayed I did get my package.  =)
I will try doing a full review of all the products as soon as I use them or I may just wait until I use all of the products and do a huge review of all the products I got it this haul.

Mini Jewelmint Haul

I finally bought my first Jewelmint pieces this month and I am totally in love!  Technically the only piece that I bought is the Setting Sun necklace but I am still very proud to own a few Jewelmint pieces.

All my Jewelmint pieces came in a box like this one.  Totally cute packaging!
Like I explained in the video I bought this piece off Allyson on facebook for $35 which included shipping.  Although I did kind of get ripped off I'm just happy to have this necklace!  I was desperate so I paid a little more than its actual cost.
These are the Bella Flora earrings that I got!  They are just so gorgeous.  Neither my photos or the photos on Jewelmint give these earrings justice.  You have to own them or see them in person to see how gorgeous they really are!
Last but certainly not least are these!  They are the Rio Bravo earrings.  I wasn't sure if I wanted them but after seeing a few people on youtube rocking these I decided to try them and I totally love them!
