Yep, I'm still here

I think this is the longest I've gone without blogging in a year! Just been busy, I guess.

Well, Avery went to the dermatologist on Friday and she does have bad eczema. She got a cream (topical steroid) that will help her. Fortunately, the doctor thinks she will grow out of it at some point! She also got the all-clear from the dentist.

We had a garage sale on Saturday, which I would deem a success! I sold my SGP student council jersey from freshman year. A random 40 year old man of the Mexican persuasion (who I am not too sure knew what it was) bought it.
We did Valentine's for the kids this morning because we won't see them next weekend before the actual Valentine's Day! We gave them some candy and their cards and mom and dad got them some goodies too. Avery will get hers on Valentine's Day.


Avery's new spot is with the dog's in their "doggie corner." She will just go and sit with them. It's pretty cute, actually!



Also, my dad got a new toy for his birthday and I WANT it. It's a camera that is simply awesome. It has a USB port connected to it and you can take pictures while filming a video, then plug the camera into the computer and upload them in no time. Best part, no blur!!! I am blown away. It's kind of pricey, but I am thinking it's worth it. I took these pictures while simultaneously videoing.





Pretty good quality, no blur! And yes. On occasion, as a treat, I feed my daughter chocolate milk. So sue me.


Have a good week!

poor little girl-I have eczema and as a kid took LOTS of oatmeal baths to keep the itching down!

and btw, I totally gave George part of my chocolate cupcake the other day to keep him from screaming :)

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.
