Camdenism on baptism

Camden's cousin Preston turned 8 today and we were getting ready to go to his baptism. Camden was refusing to get ready to go so I asked him, "aren't you excited to go see your cousins and see Preston get baptized?"

to which he replied, "I'm excited to see my cousins but I don't want to see Preston get baptized!" I said why not and he said "because they dunk him under the water!!" I said, that's ok and Preston is ok with it (knowing that Camden isn't a fan of getting water in his eyes or in his ears while in the bath, although he is ok with it in the pool) he said, "well I'm not ok with it! Is he going to be awake when they do it?" I told him, yes he will be awake. "Well, is he going to be breathing after?" he questioned. Yes he will be breathing, his dad isn't going to drowned him buddy, he will just go under really fast and come back up.
It was so cute how concerned he was. He didn't understand why we would be excited about it. Afterwards he said it was really cool and he was happy.

How to make your natural lashes long and thick

I just wanted to share this with everyone because this stuff is seriously AMAZING!!!
We all want long thick beautiful lashes but how far are you willing to go?



There is the fake lashes you can just glue on yourself...but after doing that for my Halloween costume this year I will never do that again! Not only did I get the glue in my eye, HOLY OUCH, but it took me three times on each eye to get it the way I wanted.
You can pay a professional to do them for you but on average they cost $200-$300 for your first set and then $50-$75 for regular refills, sometimes as often as twice a month! YIKES!! Also people have had allergic reactions to the glue that is used to adhere the extensions to the lashes and in some cases, patients need expensive antibiotics or eye patches.
There is Latisse, a prescription you can get to use. A bottle last only 30 days when following the instructions for use, cost around $120 so a years worth of treatment would cost $1,440! It also has known side effects such as cornea inflammation! So I will just cross that off my list!

So there isn't really any other options aside from regular mascara. 
Or is there?

Introducing YOUNIQUE's 3D Fiber Lashes
Not only does it work but IT IS ONLY $29! 
Yes you read that right 29 bucks!



It is packaged in two separate bottles, the Transplanting Gel and Natural Fibers are used together to enhance and magnify your OWN lashes. Watch your lashes transform into something you only dreamed of! A 300% increase in thickness and volume to your lashes while still looking completely real and natural. Potentially "mood-altering" 3D Fiber lashes will quickly become your favorite makeup accessory!

Update: I have had some people ask how long the tubes last. If you do two coats of the 3D Fiber Lashes every day then it last about 8 weeks. If you do one coat then it last at least 3 months but should last a little longer.

Here is a Demo video from Younique's Co-Founder Melanie on how to apply the 3D Fiber Lashes



 I wanted to add a few more pictures from other people that have tried the 3D Fiber lashes

The one on the right is just mascara and the one on the left has 3D Fiber Lashes



Here is one that you can tell a major difference on. The one on the left has 3D Fiber Lashes and the one on the right has nothing on it.

 Here is a more dramatic look with them. It looks like false lashes but it is only the 3DFiber Lashes

One user said: This is a lot cooler than I thought it would be. It looks like eyelash extensions without the high cost. I am very impressed with the results.


Another user said: "This is a fascinating product. I just got mine yesterday. I have to say that in person the difference is more dramatic. You can layer and get your lashes even longer than I did. I only used one coat. My daughters used it too and we are all hooked on these fiber lashes. They really do lengthen your lashes not just make them fuller like lengthening mascara does. This is completely different than anything else on the market."


Nothing. Mascara. 3D Fiber Lashes
"I got my 3D fiber lashes today and I'm in LOVE!! they are awesome!!"

Alphabet Crown






Camden earned his Alphabet Zoo crown at school. Which means he can identify all the letters and their sounds. He was so excited that he wore his crown everywhere for two days until it broke.

Camdenisms

Camden was climbing up on the counter in the bathroom to brush his teeth and I said, "why don't you get your stool instead of climbing silly?" He said "but I need to climb, because climbing is my featured word of the day."   ...how do I argue with that?


Camden kept knocking over the vacuum onto Carson so I told him, if you do that one more time I am gonna knock it over onto you. Camden said, "mom, you use to be so kind and gentle?" I said, "well, you use to be sweet and respectful" to which he replied..."no I wasn't...I was kind, but disrespectful."

For some reason Camden says E lot and E ton and I was correcting him the other day and said it is A lot and A ton. He said, "mom, you can say things how you want and I will say things how I want and dad will say things how he wants, ok."

Carson and Camden were playing school today and I over heard Camden say, "this is your seat Carson but if you talk to much I'm gonna have to move you." I asked Camden if he has ever had to get moved at school for talking too much and he said no but other kids have.

FBI Gangster

After his 3rd day of school we stopped at the Dollar Store and he picked out this FBI police kit. He has had so much fun playing with it! Best dollar spent!

Vampire Boy
After church Camden turned into his alter ego, Vampire Boy. He loves his vampire teeth. Yes, he is wearing 3D movie glasses.


This boy is such a character and I love that he is finally letting me take pictures of him again. 
Carson is now in the don't take my picture phase.
