Cake Batter Love

In preparation for Avery's party tomorrow, I made some Valentine's whoopie pies. I am sure there is a much better recipe out there, but I gotta tell ya. There is a mix from Pillsbury that is pretty awesome.

Avery was about to go in the bath, so she was only in her diaper. What a great time to give her a good lick of her first cake batter! Well, first that I know of. Don't know what's happened at Gigis in her young life.
:-)




I gave her a lick off the spoon and before too long, I just gave her the spoon for herself. She was messy, but totally worth it.

I was talking to her at dinner and she would look at me and say, "Ummmmm, no. Uh-uh."


"Whatchou talkin about Willis?"




***Dad Memory Alert!***

I remember when we were young, my mom was always making baked goods. I think my dad thought how fun it would be to eat all of the cake batter. Or at least, as much as we could before we threw up. One night, I remember Mom was gone for the night and my dad made a cake JUST to eat the batter. We ate all we could and cooked the rest. It was a small cake. Good memories!!!

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

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

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.
