Ever since Lyric was very little (cause, you know, he’s so big now. haha), he’s had very sensitive skin. Maybe it’s because he’s mixed, maybe it’s our environment, either way I’ve had to be very selective in the things I put on his body. Without nightly cream, his skin becomes very dry and he’ll scratch himself in his sleep until he’s cut. That all being said, when I came upon a brand that was based on all natural products, I knew this was going to be just perfect for Lyric!

Do you still have World Cup fever? Ever notice the soccer player’s hair styles and think why doesn’t mine look like that, or HOW did they do that? Well let me just say, it’s not as easy as you’d think! One of the things I get asked about the most and gets noticed the most is Lyric’s hair. Women are jealous of his spiral curls, men think his ‘fro “awesome”. Lyric has now started to ask for a pony tail if he’s not in the mood to let me “do” his hair, but mostly, I just let it go wild! Now, back to the World Cup hair… Schwarzkopf Professional was challenged to match a product with a unique soccer look, and then I thought it would be fun to try and match those looks with the corresponding products!

Want the CUTEST outfit for your lil one’s 1st birthday cake smash photoshoot? They have HUNDREDS! Want to find a vintage Fisher Price cash register, and not one of the new ones they’re making to look vintage? They have that too!

If this is the first time you’re hearing of ClearlyContacts.ca, you NEEEED to check them out! As their tagline states it’s “the better way to buy eyewear”, and I completely agree! ClearlyContacts.ca is the largest online contact lenses and prescription glasses retailer in Canada. I went online to quickly browse their sunglass selections and almost squealed with glee when I saw they had 472 (literally) pairs to choose from! I’m not going to lie, it took a little time narrowing it down, but I always say it’s better to have too much than not enough!
