Frank Body Scrub Review

I recently bought the original frank body scrub, costs about 17 dollars with shipping. 

First I'd like to mention I love the humor that comes with the product, look it up and you'll know exactly what I mean. The way they make it as if the scrub is a man you're about to get naked and dirty with, to me is funny, like I have a boyfriend on the side, only he's going to help me get rid of my stretch marks and help tone and tighten my skin! How perfect is that? 

Shipping was fast and simple, ordered Saturday and received it on Wednesday along with email updates on when it shipped and a tracking number to track it, which made me happy considering I hate being scammed, but who doesn't, right?

Now let's get down and dirty! Ripped open the top of the bag, resealable top which I was ecstatic about! For one that means one bag will last more than one scrub, which was a worry of mine.

Opened it up and man that smell, I'm obsessed with everything coffee, so the fact that it made my entire room smell like a fresh pot of coffee was a major bonus for me.

I also decided to do the scrub in the morning, I'm not a morning person, and I never shower in the morning. Trust me I shower, but as a mom of 3, I'm not going to wake up earlier than my early rising children to shower so I usually wait until nap time to shower. But man am I glad I decided to try this out in the morning! I warn you, it's messy, have a big cup in the shower with you for after you rinse off to pour water on your walls to get the scrub off. 

Now application itself was super easy, I decided to do my entire body, AND I BARELY USED A QUARTER OF THE BAG DOING SO. Awesome if you ask me. Grab handfuls, and start scrubbing away! Scrub feels amazing on your skin, like that itch you couldn't scratch is finally being scratched. My skin felt like it just had it's very own cup of coffee. Talk about rejuvenating! 

Seriously, my whole body felt like it received an amazing wake up call and is officially ready for the day! I was also a bit nervous because I have super sensitive skin, I get rashes and stuff from New products all the time, BUT NOT THIS ONE.

                             

Obviously after only 1 use there's not a huge difference, but I can honestly say that if I continue using it, I think it really will make a difference. My skin tone even after just one scrub already looks a tiny bit better!

After rinsing off and finishing my shower duties there was a few things I absolutely loved. 

For one, I felt awake, more awake I've felt at 7 am since I was probably a child! 

Second, my skin felt softer than it's ever felt! Not kidding, my sons butt isn't this soft! 

This product is amazing and I plan on getting anyone I can to try it out. One use, and I'm addicted. Frank, oh the love we share already! 

The energy I feel has got to be my favorite part though by far. 

Got dressed, got my kiddo up (my twins are in Colorado so only 1 baby right now) went downstairs and not only made breakfast, but I ate breakfast!

If you know me you know I am NOT a breakfast person. 

Food before I'm fully awake, yuck. But not today! 

I ate breakfast with my little man, drank a coffee and feel fantastic!

Today is going to be a great day, My morning started off great getting dirty with Frank, 

and now I'm ready for the day with all positive vibes and feeling alive, and it's only 9am!

If you're iffy on trying it, I hope this changes your mind because it's phenomenal and a household MUST HAVE.

Time.

Time flies by, I've always thought that, but more so when you have kids! 

Now you're not the one growing (hard to see how fast it flies when it's yourself) But you're watching these little humans, part of you, whom you made, grow at rapid speeds! 

Feels like just yesterday I kissed my twins for the first time on their tiny little cottage cheese looking covered faces, counted these tiny fingers and tiny toes, and singing little songs to them as I cradled them in my arms, in awe of how small they were, and how large my heart and love grew. 

Yet now, I'm kissing their lips with a kiss returned, they're helping me count their long fingers, and big toes, even counting mine, wiping their pb&j covered faces, and saying the pledge of allegiance each morning. 

Time has flown by without me even realizing it! Not only am I watching them, but my newest little guy as well! Is it possible to feel like I delivered them all, 3 years apart, yet all yesterday? Cause that's how I feel! 

Again, feels like just yesterday I delivered this tiny, almost 7lb baby, Tristan, he wrapped his little fingers around one of mine, smiled for the first time, giving him all the nourishment he needed from my own body, and I watched my husband hold this tiny, fragile, adorable little human in his arms. 

Now, he's crawling up to me, taking steps, laughing at my goofy faces, making his own, spoon feeding him these, goopy messy jars of yum, him picking up food on his own and eating it, then watching my husband fly him around the room like an airplane. 

Where did the time go? Where did my tiny, lengthy, swollen little men go? What happened to them? Why must they grow so quickly? 

It's amazing to watch them all grow, and I am one proud momma watching them learn and experience new things, but man do I wish, even just for a day, they would curl up in my arms, (without my back killing me from how heavy they are), open up their swollen little eyes, and give me that crooked, toothless, little first smile, all over again. I feel like I, and so many others, are always rushing to the next stage. "Can't wait until they walk!" "Can't wait until they talk!" "I can't wait until they play sports!"

 "I can't wait to see what hobbies they're interested in as teenagers!" 

What's the rush? This stage of their life, is only for now, and it will pass much faster than you could ever imagine! Live it up, you only get this day once, and can never get it back. 

I cannot believe how fast time is passing me by, it's wonderful, and yet heartbreaking at the same time. Bittersweet.

                     So, to show how fast time flies, here's some memories from before, and now!

I remember when the boys were just little babies, so small, so SKINNY! I'd have to sit there holding two bottles, one for each, and feed them. I remember their hilarious poop faces, and amazing facial expressions. They'd look at me, and I'd instantly feel like the most beautiful woman in the world, seeing them light up at the sight of ME. Amazing.

Now, they feed themselves, tell me what they want to eat. Every time I get done doing my makeup, they both will run to me saying, "Mommy you look pretty!" Or "mommy you're beautiful!" How amazing is that? Heartwarming to say the least! Everyday, after they wake up, they say one of two things, either "mommy, I WAKE UP!!!" Well, I'm so glad! Or "mommy look, the sun come back up its daytime!!!" Thank goodness for that! They are so alike, but wow, oh so very different!

Aiden, he is my mommas boy, always has been! Loves no one like he loves me! (Awesome right?!) such a cuddle bug when he wants to be, SO daring and adventurous, and wow, the imagination on this boy is PHENOMENAL! He's such a goof ball too! For instance, we tried feeding Tristan some of my Popsicle, and aiden says, "no mommy he has no teeth!" How cute is that? Or, trying to convince him to eat his broccoli, we told him eat it like the dinosaurs do it, and he says "mommy I not a dinosaur I am a peoples!" Hahaha, best response I've ever heard! That's only two examples off of the top of my head! He is such a character to say the least. Always something new! And such an amazing big brother! Always checking on Tristan, always loving on him and making him laugh, it's beautiful really.

And Landon, my brute! Such a guys guy, anything that involves violence, throwing, shooting, manly stuff, he's ALL IN! Surprisingly enough, he's not as daring though! New bug, loves looking, but don't you dare try and get him to touch it! Such a hard shell, but so soft and sweet on the inside! For instance, with Tristan, you wouldn't think he even NOTICES Tristan, never loving all over him, or anything of that sort, but man does he secretly love his baby brother. Anytime he's left alone in the room with Tristan, I hear whispering, so I always peak, and boy does what I see amaze me! Almost every single time he doesn't know I'm watching, he'll sit there and talk with him, play peekaboo, tickle, talk, and everything in between, but the second he sees I'm watching, he just smiles, and turns back into his cool tough self! Also, such a comedian! The second you laugh at something he does, he'll repeat it forever, feeds off of your attention, it's adorable! And his imagination, amazes me. Can tell you stories upon stories, you could make a tv series on the epic stories he tells!!!! "Mommy, you turn into a robot and protect me!" What!! Epic! Haha. I called him a cuddle bug once, and he responded, "I'm not a cuddle bug, I am a Landon kid!" How funny! He loves dancing, and always asks me to dance with him, I hope that never changes. Gosh, just such an amazing boy he is!

And my sweet little, chunky, Tristan! One day I was nursing and singing him songs, now he's already gaining his own personality! Such a ticklish little man he is, and boy, that laugh, can relinquish any stress i am feeling that day. He also, as young as he is, knows how to make me feel better! It's almost as if he knows, when I'm having a bad day, he'll be such a sweetheart, laughing randomly to cheer me up, crawling over to me and just smiling, he's such a sweet boy! I can't get enough of him!

All in all, time flies! Every moment is fleeting, and today is the day to cherish it, good or bad! Listen to your kids conversations, pull over to see the tractors, talk about whatever it is they want! Build Legos, watch a cartoon, cuddle, crawl with them, sing to them, just do it all. Cause everything they're doing right now, is going to change, and fast!

My Little Photographers!

I want to teach my kids to explore, learn, find hobbies, talents & dreams. I want them to know they can do all, and be all that they want and admire. I never want them to feel as if they are not capable of accomplishing something they want. One thing I promise myself, (among many promises) is that when my children find a hobby that they are interested in, I will do everything in my power to help them flourish and explore that hobby, whatever it is!

Well, that starts now, at this young age. This post is about their new found hobby among many, photography. Aiden and Landon both, mainly Aiden, love taking mommy's camera, or phone, and snapping pictures like it's no one's business! Boy, they LOVE it!!! Sometimes, the pictures actually aren't half bad, great even! So, a short post, but something I will want to look back on later in life, some pictures of my boys' photography talent! 

YES THIS WAS MY ALARM CLOCK, FLASH!
