Avery's First Airplane Ride

Well, I have been out of the technical loop for three days, no Facebook, email, texting, or blogging. Gotta say, kind of nice. But we are in our way home from picking up the dogs and I am very glad to get home with my little family. Avery is ready, she was just not having it today.

Friday, we left for Seattle. I wasn't really nervous about Avery on the plane to Seattle. Take off was at her bed time, so I thought she would sleep through, which she totally did. In true Jenna fashion, I Googled anything I could get my hands on about travelling with an infant and felt very prepared. We went through security in a breeze, got on the plane easily, and she ate as we were taking off and fell asleep. It was one of the few times in life with a child that everything went according to plan. Not only that, but we arrived a whole hour early!! Robert said its unheard of to get there in only three hours! She was even greeted by the best people...her Nawnie and Poppy!!!

Here are a few pictures I took. I was way to busy and concerned with Avery to spend too much time taking pictures, but I did get her in her stroller in the airport and on the plane. I have many more pictures of Seattle to come....have a great night's sleep, I know I will!!

Congrats on a successful plane ride! Isn't it funny how we're always so amazed when things actually go according to plan?! Too funny. Can't wait to hear about the rest of the trip. Welcome home :)

What is Your Skin Care Regimen?

Since turning 34 this year, I've been really trying to make sure I am taking care of my skin. I have been using Cover Girl Liquid Powder for years, but it always seemed to break my neck out. And full disclosure, my face cleaning routine consisted of using Avery's baby wipes (which actually do remove eye makeup surprisingly well). So, needless to say, my skin didn't always look its best. So, I received some gift cards for my birthday and I decided to go ahead and spring for some better products. First thing I did was get something designed to clean my face. I ordered the Olay ProX Microdermabrasion System. This system came with the battery-operated scrubber with both a brush and foam pad, plus every day face wash and microdermabrasion wash to be used twice a week. I have really loved using this system. The beauty is that you can really use any face wash you'd like. I will probably buy a pore-reducing wash after the tube they sent me is empty. This syst...

Why I am Pro Universal Healthcare and Changes to Our Healthcare System

Due to my recent proactivity with my credit and paying off debt, I decided to give the hospital a call where I was admitted about a month ago and ask about my bill. I wanted to make sure I didn't miss it in the mail and I wanted to get an idea of what I'd be paying for my stay. I get on the phone with the billing department and the woman is just as nice as can be, really. She was surprised I'd even called her, considering I didn't even have a bill yet. She told me she'd sent the bill over to my insurance to be approved and paid but they hadn't heard back yet. "Just out of curiosity," I asked, knowing I would be responsible for 20% of the final bill, "how much was it?" What I heard next shocked me. "$61,000" she said. I said, "$61,000? I was only in the hospital for a night and only on anti-biotics, you can't be serious! My daughter cost me less than a third of that to give birth to and I was in the hospital two nights!...

Guess Who Has A New Potty???

This girl!! Jason and I took Avery to Target tonight to find a potty chair. We didn't know what kind to get. When we got there, she loved the Sesame Street one. It's the kind that sits on the toilet, not an actual chair. I've heard both reasonings on a chair and a pad for the real toilet. On one hand, the chairs are little and easier for them to sit on and they aren't scary to flush. On the other, the pad doesn't require you to have to clean out a chair and they teach kids to sit on the big potty from the get go. What it really came down to was that we just don't have a big bathroom at all, so keeping an actual chair in the bathroom would have been hard. So we got the pad. It has a little hook that you attach to the tank, so you can hang the pad on it. I love this! I have no intention of actually potty training Avery full out, just yet. I don't think she is ready. But I have heard it's good to have one that they can practice sitting on and get u...
