There are plenty of milestones a new mom has to look forward to as she watches her child grow.

Face Shaving- It’s Not Just For Men!

One day, while telling the story of the Three Little Pigs to my baby, I realized that part of the story was just a little too realistic. Mommy’s hairs on her chiny, chin, chin were there and accounted for. As I’ve gotten older, hair has been growing in every place I would never want it. It is almost as if every hair I loose … Read More Face Shaving- It’s Not Just For Men!
