Benefits of Grapefruit Essential Oil

I put a few drops (1 drop per 4oz of water) of doTERRA Grapefruit oil in my water for a delicious flavor that includes a number of health benefits. Some of the common uses for grapefruit oil are: anorexia, appetite suppressant, cellulite, or a hangover. Grapefruit oil may also help with cancer, depression, other eating disorders, fatigue, jet lag, liver disorders, migraine headaches, premenstrual tension, stress, and  sympathetic nervous system stimulation. It may also have a cleansing effect on the kidneys, the lymphatic system, and the vascular system.

I am seriously in LOVE with doTERRA essential oils. Every oil, or oil blend, has a number of uses! They're a natural, incredible way to keep your body healthy.

**If you're interested in purchasing oils, I get them at the wholesale price, and would love you get them for you.**

My life has been nothing short of ridiculously crazy lately. I officially started my 1/2 marathon training on Monday, as well as the bikini series with my favorite girls from Tone It Up! So far I have run 7 miles in 3 days. I'm not the biggest fan of running (I go through phases) but I am learning to love it again! I love how I feel, and how I have more energy. So 2 or 3 miles a day might not seem like much to you, but it's an accomplishment for me! And I'm signed up to run 13.1...what the heck am I thinking?!

Last week, all 3 of us were sick. Having a sick 14-month old and husband make being sick even more miserable. I seriously couldn't function. About 2 months ago I started working at a hotel 3 or 4 nights a week. Kasey works from about 8-5 and I work 5-11. This schedule is not ideal. I love spending my days with Emma, and my sweet cousin watches her for about an hour as we commute to/from work. I literally don't see my husband about half of the week. That's the reason I married him, so I could spend MORE time with him!!! I guess I do get to sleep next to him, which is nice. Lately, he has complained that I am too cuddly in the night. I've almost pushed him off the bed a few times. He's a trooper. I love him.

Emma walks and talks like a big kid. I swear I just had her. How is she so big already?! I love watching her grow and learn new things. Being a parent is fun! I think that's the best word I can use to describe my experience so far being a mom. Some days are hard, and some nights are sleepless, but it is all fun and creates memories. Emma currently LOVES to read. I love that she loves to read! She loves Mickey Mouse Clubhouse and Sofia the First. She's the sweetest little girl, who loves to wear necklaces and give kisses. My life seriously cannot get any better. I feel blessed to have the sweetest husband and daughter.

Okay, it's 1:40am. This is what happens when I run at 11:30pm. Goodnight, blogger world. Thanks for reading.
