This is what happens when you have a day off...

Well people, life has been totally crazy these past two weeks! I have been studying super hard for anatomy, and it started to pay off! I could actually understand what was going on and I am loving learning more ha ha even though it was kind of overwhelming getting ready for my test. Woot woot! I am still loving my Nutrition  class and I am kind of being a crazy person about what I eat... I just really enjoy the value of what I put in my body and how it can effect my health. Life is too important to just throw away, so in order to maintain a healthy life and good habits, you need to start now, it on average, take 21 days to make something a habit. So people.... are you doing good habits? Don't follow those fad diets and totally eliminate something from your body, just watch how much you eat and I promise you with some exercise ( 3 days of cardio, 3 days of anaerobic exercises, and one day or two days of rest) you will feel so much better! Remember my last post about water... continue to drink water and this will take care of cleansing your system and plus it's great for your skin!
Today, after school, I was taking the train home and recently I have met so many people, I really enjoy it. I just have to say... Dear mystery boys who I see on the train daily, when can we meet for real?? Ha ha just kidding! Anyway, I came home and wanted to have some fun! I drove to Fashion Place Mall and was in search for some shoes for Kelsey's wedding. I walked in to Nordstrom first and there was this huge make-up thing going on. I didn't want to be pressured into buying anything because most of that stuff is quite pricey for my budget. However, while I was trying on Toms, this lady came up to me and said "I would like to treat you to a free make over, I feel like today is a fun day so would you like to have a FREE make over?" Ha I was totally surprised! I went over after I was done looking at toms. My new Toms are so so so cute and I love them! They match perfectly with Kels's color scheme! I was lucky to find them, because online said you could only get them online.!
The free make over was sponsored by Bare Minerals! I currently am using drugstore products because right now, that's all I can afford, but that adds up too once you buy everything. I was totally convinced to buy Bare Minerals, wow! My face feels like it can breathe, and not clotted up, why wasn't I using this product before ha ha! The lady convinced my that I didn't need much make-up, I have always been self conscious about how I look but she helped me beautiful without adding too much of the fake stuff to my face.I think it's crazy how society has made it clear that in order to be beautiful you should wear all of this stuff. It shouldn't have to be that way at all, it's degrading to your confidence. Girls, remember, no tube of mascara, foundation, cleanser, lipstick, or pallet of eye shadow should be the one to feel pretty, you are beautiful with what you have and what was given to you. Never, ever let anyone tell you different, through God's eyes you are PERFECT!!!


Afterwards, I came home and made some gluten free zucchini bread and it is so yummy and smells delicious! I love days like this! I love all of you and I hope your day is going fantastically!

Potty Training and tips

I know most of you won't care about this post, but I know my future self will be grateful for it. Potty training is so tricky and it really tested my patience. I know everyone experiences it differently and each kid is different. I did a bunch of research on tricks and tips. I didn't just stick to one, I tried a few different ones and even combined some. Let's start from the beginning. Spencer and I wanted to have Evie potty trained before our new little one arrives. I can't even begin to tell you how many people told me I should wait until the new baby came. A good chunk of these same people told me Evie was too young (she is 22 months) and it wasn't worth my time to even try. Here's the thing; I kind of get why people told me these things, but it really made me doubt my abilities to teach Evie a hard task. Let's all be kind and not mom shame those who try things differently and earlier than others. I am with her all day, every day and paid attention to a...

Help me raise money for a cause (Part 1)

As many of you know, I have Type 1 Diabetes for 10 years in August 2013. For those of you who don't know, I would like to share my story (in summary). At the end of the school year while in the 5th grade I started to lose my vision. Things started to change quickly inside of my body. I was never feeling fully energized and I was constantly feeling like I had to go to the bathroom and drink lots of water. I started to lose weight and the color in my cheeks started to disappear. The first two weeks in the 6th grade I weighed a scarce 73 pounds. My eyes were sunk in and my cheek bones were poking out. My mom took me to the doctors. After a quick finger prick, they found out that my blood sugar was 831mg/dl. (Normal target range is 80-120 mg/dl) That was a very dangerous number! I was then told I had to be taken directly to Primary's; I couldn't even go home to get things. Both my mom and I were in a mix of emotions. Not long after being admitted to the hospital, I was given th...

Shiveley's take California 2015

This is our California adventure. Lots of pictures here because I didn't want to blow up your Instagram feed or Facebook feed Spencer and I have been dying to go back to California pretty much since we got back from our honeymoon. (I don't really remember the exact time though). Suddenly we were saving up and then we bought our tickets to an Angel's game as soon as they were available. We were like little kids and were counting down the days until we could go. Finally the time came for us to leave our little apartment for a few days to enjoy our vacation. We woke early on the day we left and literally hit zero traffic. Of course I drifted off for a little bit, as I normally do on road trips. While driving we came upon this huge and long cloud that covered the road. It was way neat, so naturally I snapped a picture in the midst of it. On our way there we realized we were making great timing. We arrived in Vegas around 11:30ish. We decided we needed to get out and stret...
