TGIF

When I got home last night, Jordan greeted me with a good little surprise. He had made me a card for Step-Mother's Day! (Which, I think was Thursday this year)



What a wonderful surprise. He spent so much time on it! I even asked him who told him it was Step-Mothers Day and he said, "My mom." Ok, that made me feel even better. Our apartment had a fun little Cinco de Mayo social, complete with Freebirds and chips and salsa. I ate chips and salsa all. day. long. I was so sodium-ed out by the end of the day. Bleck.

I love the weekends. It means I get two whole days off to spend with my beautiful daughter. I honestly can't believe that in a couple of weeks, she is going to be 6 months. TIME - STOP PLEASE!! That little booger is STILL not rolling over for me. Literally, I show up to pick her up and Pam is like, "She's been rolling over all day! Even right before you got here!" and then, she stops. Pam says she's never seen anything like it before, it's like she knows I am watching. Little stinker.


I had to get Avery new pj's last night, she has officially gone through another growth spurt at some point in the last WEEK and now only fits in 3 pairs of pjs. She is 5 months and needs 9 month pjs. WHAT???? She is a big girl, really long. It's the length that gets her. Her feet are like to the end of the footie and her legs can barely straighten out. Haha.

I also got some new food for her, ready to go for when she is ready. She has her 6 month doctor's visit on the 31st, so I am going to wait to introduce veggies until I get the doctor's go ahead.

Also, congrats to our friends Karen and BJ on their new addition - PRESLEY! Her family updated her blog all day yesterday to give us up to the minute action. It was like the basketball playoffs, only for girls. :-) You can visit her blog here.

Have I mentioned how much I LOVE this face???

It was a very good day.

I love it when God smiles upon us. I mean, He smiles upon us all the time. But sometimes, it's like sunshine, and Christmas morning, and rainbows, and babies, and awesomeness. On steroids. And I know that those times are not always permanent, so I learn to really wrap myself in His goodness, to take it all in, be happy, and just sit back and wait to see what He is going to do in my life. We have been struggling so long. I knew it was only a matter of time before things would be OK again. Where we would feel a little stability. Where we would take all of the things we learned while struggling and apply then when times are good. We have alot of great things going on in our lives right now. Some really great things. Some amazing, mindblowing, off the grid kind of great things. I wish I could share more, but for right now, let's just say that we are incredibly blessed with some great opportunities God is putting in our lives. I leave you with a gorgeous picture of our biggest bl

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

Dancing With Dad

I have been working on a project these last couple of weeks for my previous company. Yesterday, I was working on my computer and heard roaring laughter coming from Avery's room. I walk in and found Jason and Avery dancing and singing away.   By sheer coincidence, this popped up on my Timehop today. Avery was only 1 in this picture. Boy, are these kiddos lucky to have such a great dad! It makes me heart melt.
