Shampoo alternatives.

So I ran across a pin a while back. Honestly I don't even think I officially "Repin"ed it but as with all pins I clicked to check the link and in fact stumbled upon a secret curly hair cult. These women apparently have gathered around a potion that they swear by, Baking Soda as shampoo.
Well today after taking the boys to see Spiderman... 5? They owed it to me to pa ruse Target. Where I picked up a couple travel size containers that could fit my new shampoo and conditioner. With a ratio of roughly 1T baking soda to 1cp water for shampoo and the like for Apple Cider Vinegar as a stand in for conditioner, mama is off and running.

We shall see how this goes!

Well you have to start somewhere.

I have been so overwhelmed with emotions lately. I am a passionate person/mother. I put nothing less than 100% into anything I do... Especially new and different ways of approaching the same ol same ol, such as chores which I will expand on later.
Currently my love is on holiday exploring up North with his father and while he is away Mommy will play! I have been meaning to paint his room since the day we moved in. I completely understand the stress people have when moving to prepare where ever they land as much as possible. Well its been over a year and many stay-cations later and I have finally made myself accountable. I WILL paint my sons room. Now the vision has changed and shifted from what it originally was and I am mildly surprised to see where it has landed. From bold primary colors (including red which is his favorite) to a more toned down light and airy feel with a twist... Because there must always be a twist!
With that being said I am steadily wrapping this project up and shall post pictures soon!! I just know his sweet heart will love all the effort that was put into making his little corner even that much more special.
