iRestore Hair Growth Serum Review

I did not know about all the crazy quirks after having a baby.  I guess when I had my son I was so young, things went over my head.  My pregnancies where each special but very different.  I was much younger with my son and much older with my daughter.  I had heard that some ladies lose or shed hair after having a baby but I was born with a full head of hair for two people and I never noticed if it did the first time.  But the next time around, I did start to lose my hair and I felt like it was not growing. 
Thanks to iRestore for sending sample product for review.  All opinions stated are my own based on my personal experience.

I have been trying different things to try and get my full head hair back.  I stopped getting hair cuts thinking that it would get fuller that way.  I chopped it off to try and start all over.  I figured it was damaged and it needed to be restored.  I have tried different shampoos, conditioners, and treatments. 

In trying different products I was offered to sample iRestore hair growth serum.  It seemed easy to use and why not try it.  You gently massage into the scalp, I could do that.  It is all natural, preservative free, has no odor, and no side effects.  It can be used by men and women. 

The Hair Growth Serum was developed using an advanced thickening formula, Redensyl®, that is clinically proven to stimulate hair growth for both men and women who suffer from alopecia.  The Hair Growth Serum is formulated with patented molecules, Redensyl® and Vitamin E & B, designed to reactivate hair stem cell activity and nourish hair follicles to promote optimal hair growth.  By applying 1ml two times a day directly onto the scalp in areas of hair loss, users can expect to see significant visible results in as little as three months. 

After only using the product several weeks, I believe the product is working for me.  I just got a haircut too.  I had been afraid of getting haircuts in an effort to preserve what hair I do have left. I can wait to see the results after 3 full months of use.

The iRestore Hair Growth Serum is developed and made in the United States.  It is sold for $39.99 for a 2oz. / 60ml bottle.

Alice Through The Looking Glass Tea Party

Have you ever been to a tea party?  I do not believe we had.  Every little girl wants to attend a tea party and where do they get this idea from?  From Alice and her friends.  Alice who?  Alice in Wonderland, or course. 
Thanks to Walt Disney Studios Home Entertainment for inviting me and my kids to a very special Tea Party to celebrate the release of Alice Through The Looking Glass on DVD and Blu-Ray!  All opinions stated are my own based on my personal opinion.

What do you need in order to have a perfect tea party? 

1)  Tea Room? -McHugh Tea Room hosted us in their beautiful location that included everything tea.
2)  Tea Party Attire-From what I know, you definitely need a hat and anything goes for an Alice in Wonderland tea party.  We each picked a character from the movie and interpreted their look.  My daughter was Alice, my son was the Matt-"Hat"er, and I was the White Queen.
3)  Tea Party Food-We started with some tea, sandwiches, scones, and desserts.
4)  Entertainment-What is an Alice in Wonderland tea party without Alice and her friends?  In celebration of Through the Looking Glass, we got to watch it.  And remember those hats I said we needed, well no need to worry if you did not bring one.  We created our own creations.

Check out more random pictures of all the fun we had:



Disney’s “Alice Through the Looking Glass” is a spectacular adventure, featuring the unforgettable characters from Lewis Carroll’s beloved stories, in which Alice returns to the whimsical world of Underland and travels back in time to save the Mad Hatter.

2016 LEGO KidsFest Houston

Are your kids builders?  Like LEGO builders?  I remember playing with LEGOs when I was a little girl.  All the things you can build and can just let your imagination go wild.  LEGO KidsFest came to Houston. 
Can you imagine huge characters all built from LEGOs?  Like how many LEGOs can be in one place?  I am just glad I do not have to pick all of these up.  

Here are some of our favorites:

 Duh, everything is awesome!  Everything is cool when you are part of their team....
Are you team Superman or team Batman?  We are a house divided on this one. 
But we are all team Super Heroes!  And not just the boys get to be super heroes, the girls get in on some of the action too.
My daughter's favorite area was one that I thought I would never get her out of.  It is every little girls dream come true to see their favorite princess.
There was something for everyone.  We all had a blast.  The imagination and creativity of all of these displays were great.  There were construction zones, master builder sessions, group builds and of course these life size models everywhere.  I am so glad that LEGO KidsFest returned to Houston as one of their tour stops this year. 

For more information, go to www.legokidsfest.com.

***Disclosure-I am a USFG member.  Thanks to USFG got provided complimentary tickets for my family to LEGO KidsFest 2016.  All opinions stated are my own based on my personal experience.

When I Say Cheesecake, You Say Factory

Let's play a game.  If I say a word and you tell me what you think about.  Ok, the word is menu.  What did you think about?  food?  Next is two words, Cheesecake Factory.  What did you think about?  desserts?
Thanks to the Cheesecake Factory for inviting my husband and I to be their guests.  All opinions stated are our own based on our personal experiences.
 
Did you know that the restaurant makes more than 250 dishes from scratch daily? 
My husband and I started with the Eggroll Sampler since we could not decide which appetizer to start with.  This is a perfect plate to share and to sample the four different types of eggrolls available:
Avocado, Tex Mex, Crispy Cuban, and Firecracker Salmon.  They each come with their own dipping sauce. 
My husband went with the Shrimp and Angel Hair Pasta for his dish.  This dish caught both of ours eyes on the menu.  I noticed that it is available Gluten-Free upon request.
I went with the Spicy Chicken Chipotle Pasta after the waiter's recommendation.  This dish is normally served with Penne Pasta but I always prefer ordering dishes that have angel pasta.  All I had to do was ask. 
For my drink, I tried the Cucumber Lemonade.  This is a non-alcoholic drink that I recommend.

My husband and I ended up being so full but you always have to have room for dessert at The Cheesecake Factory.

'Tis the season for everything pumpkin....like Pumpkin or even better, Pumpkin Pecan Cheesecake.  (Available now through Thanksgiving)

The Cheesecake Factory is donating $.25 of every slice sold to help feed hungry Americans in the communities they operate.  They have donated over $4 million since 2008.

Thanks again to The Cheesecake Factory (Galleria) located at 5015 Westheimer Road for hosting us.  For more information or to check out the menu, go to thecheesecakefactory.com.
