After entering my giveaway, be sure to hop around and enter all of the other giveaways listed on the linky at the bottom of this post!


I hope you like the new color!
So long story, I was painting the bathroom because it was a really really dark color and someone mentioned it being claustrophobic.  So I said, okay, I'll lighten it up a bit.  After I removed all the bath supplies from the tub, I taped the ceiling and the floorboards and began the long process of prime, prime, paint paint.  While Pablo was at work, I decided this was a good time to do this.  You know, having the kids around does not complicate the already-complicated process of painting a bathroom (I hope you are putting sarcasm in my voice because it should be dripping with it.)  So the paint-excited genius that I was, I put all the bathroom supplies out in the hallway.


Which brings me to the point of my story.  Xavi was so happy that he had access to this Episencial shampoo outside of a bathtub, he was pumping it out and rubbing it on his hair.  DRY.  He looked like he had put hair gel and smelled like a straight-up delicious orange.  (That's not the worst thing he got into over the weekend, but you will have to check out Instagram to learn more about that)

Fortunately, the shampoo is supremely clean, vegan-certified, and super-safe.  I like the brand because it contains skin probiotics.  Every time we wash our hands with antibacterial soap, we are killing the wonderful bacteria that keep us healthy, along with those evil few sickness-causing bacteria.  This one strikes my fancy because it washes and feeds our hands with healthy bacteria.

The shampoo is the enormous version and the lotion is full-sized and delightful strawberry-scented.  Xavi likes to rub it all over his belly and his itchy winter legs.  When he does, he says, "ooh, it feels nice."

Oh and did I mention you can WIN it!??  After you enter to win my prize, and then head on over to Easy Green Mama for the grand prize!

  16. I'm the Tribal Mama that needs a little pampering. I've been on bed rest with my first pregnancy and have 9 weeks to go! It was kind of nice at relaxing at first but I'm starting to get a little stir-crazy now. A little pampering would be a welcome relief.

  21. I haven't read too many, but I like the Tandem Breastfeeding For Nerds post. Right now I am nursing my 1 year old while about 6 weeks pregnant. We'll see how it goes. I would like to wean her this summer if possible.

  26. I could use some pampering, myself! I broke my foot on New Year's Day and just got out of my hard cast. I still have a long road ahead of me, but so far I am on the right track to healing and recovery.
