Avery's Birthday Party

Avery had a superhero party this year! Do you know how hard it is to find girl superhero party stuff? It's hard. The lack of appropriate girl superhero toys (and I mean, girls that are superheroes, not superheroes that are purple and pink) is atrocious. Three of the girls that Avery goes to daycare with where superheroes for Halloween, I am thinking they would like to have a cool party once in a while.
 
Anywho, she had a fun time! This was the first year I invited her friends from church and daycare so she had a blast!!
 
(Sorry Brooke, I love this picture so much)
 
 
And she had fun "opening" her presents. I actually opened them and at one point she just ran away to go play.



 
I got the kids little party favors and we decided to take a picture. Pretty handsome if you ask me!!

 
Such a cute picture, especially the fact that she is wearing her new princess gown with her black sparkly boots.

 

She has played with each and every one of her toys, all day yesterday that is all she did. She loves each one of them! Thank you all who were able to come!!
 
Yesterday, she grabbed her new laptop and went in to "work" with daddy in his office.
 

 
My sister got her this awesome bouncy thing and Avery literally spent about seven hours in it yesterday. She would take one toy at a time, go in there, and either bounce or just watch TV. Avery had a cough so we spent all day in our PJs resting and I think it worked.


 
Avery got to open our gifts on Saturday, her actual birthday. She got a new camera and the Tangled movie on DVD (we only had it recorded on DVR from ABC Family, so now she has her own copy!) By last night, Avery had taken over 300 pictures. Most of them were blurry or black, but a few we could make out! Especially the one where she took a picture of me in the shower, we have the frosty glass so you could actually make out what it was. So, maybe the whole camera thing wasn't a good idea. :-)
 
 
 Happy birthday again, Avery!!

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!...

Some Changes...

We've been going through a bit of a transition at the Whitehead household the last month or so. I haven't really talked too much about it because I wasn't ready, to be honest. It's just a lot of change and I've been trying to figure it out in my head.   As of three weeks ago last Friday, I am no longer a full time work out of home employee.   I can't believe I just said that.   It's been the plan for several months now for me to go into real estate and it was always assumed I'd be doing that part time, while keeping my full time job. Plans kind of changed when Jason got his promotion. He'd always has a job that allowed him a lot of flexibility. In sales, especially after you've been in a position for a while, it just sort of happens that way. He could take Avery to daycare and pick her up, he could take her to doctor's appointments, he could even do chores around the house in the afternoon, while I was at work. I had some flexibi...

That "Thing" in That Basket Isn't a Baby, You Know That, Right?

I have had the most horrible case of writer's block lately! With that said, I saw this article on Babycenter and I just had to write something about it.   So, we've heard of the trend of eating the placenta after birth . We've heard of the trend of putting them in pill form to get the nutrients . But this? This to me, is just the craziest of them all.   As a group of beings on this planet, I've never seen any other mammal who evolves to get to a certain place, then de-evolves on purpose, to be more "natural." I am sure I am seriously about to put my foot in my mouth, I am sure there are (some) people out there that I might offend with my "closed-mindedness" on this topic. But this is just, well, ridiculous to me.   Basically, after the placenta comes out, instead of cutting the cord and detaching it from the baby, you leave the placenta on, they salt it to help with the decomp process, add rosemary (I am guessing for the smell?), then p...
