Almost 4...Going on 15!

Munchkin likes to talk on the phone.  He will hijack any call that he can.  And then he will run if you make any attempt to take the phone back from him.  I give to you exhibit A:

Not only does he try to talk to the caller (in this case Grandma), he also asks (in his sweet innocent little voice) to talk to anyone else that might happen to be there with said caller.  And who can resist a 4 year old's request to chat?  No one I tell you!  Oh well, at least it's fun to hear him talk to telemarketers ;)

And lest you think that I'm already decorating for Christmas - that is a Halloween Tree you see in the background.

TRESemme Fresh Start

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of TRESemmé for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.

Like just about every other Mom out there, my days are crazy hectic and I don't always have time me...or time to wash my hair!  Luckily, do I have TRESemmé Fresh Start Dry Shampoo.  I've actually been using Tresemme Fresh Start after trying a sample nearly a year ago.  It leaves my long, unruly hair smelling fresh and grease free on those crazy no-time-to-shampoo days.

If you've never heard of it, TRESemmé Fresh Start is a complete line of dry shampoos that revive your style’s look and feel on days you skip a shampoo. It is uniquely formulated to absorb the excess oils from your roots and remove any odor.  They work without a drop of water (perfect for on-the-go).  And, the renewing burst of citrus extracts infused into every product, leaves hair with a clean, fresh scent.

The full collection includes lots of different formulas:

• Strengthening contains vitamin B12 and keratin to help strengthen hair and leave it full of body.
• Volumizing (my favorite) contains mineral clay and citrus to remove oil while injecting hair with salon-gorgeous volume.
• Smoothing contains vitamin H and Silk Proteins to refresh your straight style by removing oil, impurities and odor to make sure your straight style lasts.
• Moisturizing contains Witch Hazel, citrus and Aloe Vera to refresh your hair by removing excess oil, impurities and odor while moisturizing your hair.

 

Just like anything else, there are definitely some tips & tricks to getting the best results with TRESemme Fresh Start.  Celeb Julia Allison has teamed up with TRESemme and created a tutorial to teach people how to use TRESemme Fresh Start Dry Shampoo properly:

Following the how-do definitely produces great results.  And here are a few more tips:

 

• Do spray in short bursts, holding 8-12 inches from head.
• Don’t spray it like hair spray (all over and continuously) ..
• Do leave in for 1-2 minutes.
• Do use fingertips or a brush to distribute product evenly.
• If clogging occurs, simply remove the nozzle, rinse under warm water, then reattach.

Spooky Soap

When I...er my Silhouette... was cutting out the birthday sentiments for my brother's gag gift, I also cut out a few spiderwebs.  I didn't have a particular project in mind, but I was sure to come up with something.  Today one of those somethings happened to be a new bottle of vanilla-blackberry soap:

My bathroom was feeling a little left out of the Halloween decorating.  It's much happier now.
