Lip Trauma

I try to follow trends and be cool. So, one day while I was browsing, lustfully (I might add), at the shelves in Sephora, I came across a display for lip gloss. I needed some since I had just put on foundation (minerals), eyeshadow, blush, and mascara; all from similar displays. I chose the lip gloss from Urban Decay, because I had always wanted to use their products...and after using it, seeing how adorable I now looked... I started to look around the store, adding more unneeded items to my cart, and my lip started to feel on FIRE!! They were burning and stinging and down right HURT!! I thought I was having an allergic reaction, so I went to the closest mirror and my lips were bright RED and so I went to the lip gloss display and saw the Urban Decay lip gloss was not just ordinary lip gloss, it was this kind...


Yes, lip plumping!!!

I realize my lips are no Angelina Jolie, but seriously, If I have to go through all the pain to get them to look like this...HECK NO!!

I quickly wiped off the gloss, bought some "non-lip-plumping" gloss and as I was talking to the checkout lady, asking if my lips looked freakishly horrid (they were quite red) and she told me this about "lip-plumper's:" They tear/irritate (or something like this) your blood vessels in the lips, so the blood vessels will swell, making your lips look larger! Seriously. Totally not worth it!!!

So, I put on the new gloss (a fruity pina colada from Mr. Knorrs) and I continued my shopping trip. The lip gloss sucked and yes, looked good, but didn't help my poor lips. So, I went to The Body Shop and bought the best CHAPSTICK EVER, And I have vowed to NEVER try to plump my poor lips again!

fUnNy StOrIeS

I thought I should document some fun stories of the boys. One of each of them.
Preface: We have been sick. A yucky cold with runny noses, eye crusties and LOTS OF SNOT!!
Mr Man:
Mr Man occasionally wakes up in the middle of the night and comes into our room. Me, being to tired to deal with putting him back to bed, throws him in the middle of the bed and fall back to sleep. So, the other night, Mr Man came into our room and he says,
"Mommy, I can't see. I have goldfish on my eyes."
I started laughing, because that is exactly what crusty eye boogers feel like...LIKE GOLDFISH! So funny!
Izy:
Izy has not only the cold, but a double ear infection and a sinus infection to go along.
AND! he cannot blow his nose.
AND! he fell off the couch and landed on his nose, so there are huge scratches on his nose and I am sure it REALLY hurts.
SO! I have a VERY DIFFICULT time wiping his nose. So, yesterday, I grabbed the booger sucker thing (the one from the hospital) and used it on Izy. It was horrible and HE HATED IT AND SCREAMED THE WHOLE TIME! But, we got boogers out! So here is the funny part: Izy has an attitude. And while I was making dinner, he come in and has BOTH booger suckers in his hands, looks at me and screaches, "EH!" and throws the booger sucker on the ground. He was sure telling me off. It was HILARIOUS!
Oh! and one more story!
Mr man:
Mr Man is into KNOCK-KNOCK JOKES. It is crazy and a little obnoxious, but it is so FUN to see him tell them to you. You do the "knock-Knock" and the "Who's there"and the he starts looking around the room to find things to "be there." (some of the things he has said are there are the curtains, pa-sgetti, pictures, and banannas) then when you say "Bananna who" he gets excited, and goes to the next joke.
NO punch line, NO nothing.
It is so funny, because he will do it time after time after time and the more he does it, the more he laughs and giggles and the less you can understand what he is saying...but he is hilarious. I love it!
Anyways. Those are the fun stories for today!
