Contours Options Tandem Double Stroller Giveaway!!

So ever since Gianna was about 7 or 8 months old.. I knew when I had another baby if I needed to get a double stroller I knew it was going to be the Contours Options Tandem Double Stroller. I have a friend who has it with her two sons and LOVES this stroller! I also over the summer went into babies r us to test out what I should get with Gianna, and she seemed most comfortable in this. She did NOT like the sit and stands one bit, I think the best thing was that she liked that I could turn her around and she could see me.

Two of a kind working on a full house is doing a giveaway this month for this particular stroller! To enter she is asking that you go to Kolcraft.com and find another product that you would like to have and post it in the comments on her blog. You can also blog about the giveaway and tweet for extra entries. Good luck to anyone entering and wish me good luck as well :)

Target is selling E.L.F. products!

So my day was made when we walked into Target this afternoon for a quick grocery run.. I knew Target was going to be carring E.L.F. (EyesLipsFace.com) products starting November 1 but I didn't know that they would have them so soon! We went in today and lo and be hold there they were in all their glory! Thoes who know me well know that I love makeup.. not just any makeup but great quality makeup especially when its at a bargain. If your not familiar with E.L.F. products go over to their website and check it out, they have a FULL line of great quality products for only $1 each. They also sell a mineral line for anywhere between $3-$5 each and a Studio (professional) line for $3 each. I have the entire mineral eyeshadow collection, which I got at a steal last year 75% off and love them! I also have a few of the $1 quads, eyeliners, liquid lipsticks and a bronzer, I haven't yet tried the Studio line but I'm saving away and hoping for a great sale soon.. not as if they are not budget friendly enough :)
They are able to keep their costs so low because they don't advertise, they are strictly word of mouth, and if you sign up for their email newsletter they send you info on their products as well as frequent discounts and sales.
Anyways, I have been wanting to try out their nailpolishes for quite some time now as they are only $1 each and I have heard great things about them. Well when we walked into target today they had a few sets, I picked one up in Jewel Tone Trio. The colors are;

Dark Navy


Royal Purple


and Pearl


This is the new packaging that E.L.F. is putting out for Target


It looks great! I have only found their products at KMart, and the packaging is ok.. it definitely makes the product look more budget friendly, but I love the new updated packaging they are using for Target. It looks much more put together, and professional. I cant wait to pick up some stuff for friends this Holiday season.. so heads up haha be on the lookout people.. you may be getting E.L.F. Products from me :)

I will try these out a little later, and post swatches :) For now.. have a great day! Im off to my nap before my first nightshift.

Gianna and her Sketchers Hot Lights

For Gianna's birthday, Nonna (Mark's Mom) picked Gianna up some Sketcher Hot Lights sneakers. I have to mention that I love the quality of sketchers kids shoes, and how well they fit! Gianna had a pair of Nike's as her first sneakers but when she got her second pair and they were Sketchers she would walk so much better in them. Shes since had several pairs and I am sure we will buy them again for Gabrielle when she needs her sneakers.
These are the Sneakers that Nonna got Gianna for her birthday..


She LOVES them.. as you can see in the following video. This is a Game she likes to play often in the house, I promise it is not as dark as it looks!

OldNavyWeekly.com

Wondering if anyone else has struck upon this old navy weekly?? An amazing friend of mine who lives in Louisiana introduced me to it about 4 weeks ago. Every week they release new coupons.. for the past 2 weeks in a row I have found the coupon for $75 off $100 order.. but go figure its already been used up. They put a limited number of coupons on their website and once its gone its gone. I waited ALL night to see if I could try to find a good one at midnight tonight but go figure, they changed the website before Midnight and I missed the good ones. This week I found a 20% off entire order which is great! But I'm still crossing my fingers for the amazing ones. Check it out if you haven't already, its almost like a scavenger hunt!

Last day shift/ Last day of Daycare

Today was the last day at work for the day shift(8am-4:30pm), and Gianna's last day of daycare. I am excited, sad, and anxious at the same time! I didn't think you could feel so many things all at once.. then again I am only 31 weeks and 4 days pregnant.. there's no such thing as emotions running now are there?? :)
Having her in daycare has been bittersweet. She has learned so much from the interaction, and made a few friends I know that she enjoys these things because she talks about them when we are at home. But at the same time from the first day I started working at my job I missed not being home with her every single day. It was nice that I would leave work and have a couple hours but she would be so tired and she would be in bed 3 hours after I get home. Although the break at night for just time to myself was nice as well. I guess the grass will always be greener on the other side right?
I am anxious to start the new schedule because I will be working till 1am.. it feels like so late! I am sure it will take time to adjust and I will get there. The weird thing is that I am nervous because it is a whole new set of people to learn about, I think I was just comfortable seeing the same faces every day! Its honestly like the first day of school haha, not that I have ever had an issue getting along with many people or making new friends I just really liked the group I had before :)

On other news we were talking about the Shamwow guy at work today and his run in with the hungry hooker.. LOL.. Apparently a few months back he had gotten a hooker and she had bitten his tongue. She wouldn't let go so he beat the crap out of her! Ahh long story short they both were arrested but I couldn't get the Slap chop remix out of my head all day. I thought I would share because it makes me laugh hysterically every time I hear it!
