Success!

The baby shower was a complete success in my eyes... I think Kate was blessed by all that arrived, and I think she liked the food and gifts. I really hope so! A lot of people showed up and helped out, and I am pretty sure we left the house kind of clean at least! This morning I am hoping to get together with Kate and the kids (I am babysitting today, and JJ has decided to let me take Sophie wherever the day leads us!). We were initially planning to go to the zoo. Not sure if that is going to be where we end up though because the weather doesn't seem like it will be good for the zoo today. Such a bummer. Otherwise we talked about possibly meeting at Mayfair, otherwise I was going to suggest the Childrens Play Gallery... Oh dear not sure yet, but truly hope to see my friend again today. I am so blessed to have her in my life, and most of our communication is done through email since she has lived overseas for 3 years, so... Anyhow... I am going to get ready and then figure out the plans... And of course let the kids watch Elmo while I get it all worked out! ;)
Oh yeah and I did see the dermatologist yesterday... (actually the PA)... and she has perscribed me three types of topical medication to start using to help with my adult acne. So, we'll see!

Baby shower day! Yay!

Well today is going to be so much fun. I have quite a few things to accomplish this morning and before the shower, but I am really excited to be able to spend time with some of my friends this evening. We need to take our Jeep in to have it fixed. The shock is broken in the back, and a couple of other things are going on with it. I think it is cool that I can use a borrowed car from the place we take it, but I feel like I am driving a big huge billboard while I have the borrowed car. Oh well though, don't mind that to have good gas mileage! I have to run to the dermatologist today, and I am so excited to find out what they say, but actually hope they are quick but precise because I have to make my time away from home this afternoon as useful as possible! Then I am home to bake a bit more and get ready to party! Well, gotta go for now, to get some playtime in before I leave for my busy afternoon. Have a great day!

Blessed

Well yesterday turned out to be wonderful in so many ways. A true blessing. I was so thankful that my prayer for nerves really helped me, because I was able to sing and not feel stressed, and really enjoy my time singing. And of course I truly enjoyed my time that I got to spend with my good friend, K. Oh my gosh I missed her so much.
Today I babysat Sophie. She has been kind of sad lately... not too sure what is buggin her, but happy to say that I am going to take her on Wednesday with us to the zoo! It is going to be so fun, we are going with K, E, and N, and also with JoAnn and her daughter/granddaughter. So excited for that, can't even tell you.
Yay tomorrow is the baby shower for Kate, and I am so excited! And I got an appointment to see the Physicians Assistant to the Dermatologist, so I am excited about that too, to see what they can say...
Anyhow, I have to get movin to story time and then off to bed with me too. Long day... Monday's tend to be kind of that way, and when you throw in babysitting and baking... woah baby.
Have a great week!

Nervous for this morning

Well I had a great time with Michelle yesterday. My husband kept the kids, and we had a wonderful girls day. Kira came and met us for lunch and then we walked the mall (a few times!)... We visited Sephora... and talked a lot about skincare and stuff, which I love to get different ideas and stuff. I am actually going to make an appointment to see a derm about adult acne and also for a skin check (I have had a few iffy moles removed in the past) and want to question her about SPF for myself and the kids and whatnot. I am actually excited to go to the doc and find out how to properly care for my (and the kids) skin because cancer is in our family (and if it is something that I can somewhat control and get the kids off to a great start, I am going to do what I can!). Michelle is so much fun for these reason's inparticular. She is one of my friends (along w/ Kate) who really look into things and tries stuff and whatnot and I love to get advice from her. We have a great time together!
Anyhow, today I am really excited because I get to see one of my best friends that I haven't seen since about a year ago while I was over seas. They have since had another cutie, and I am excited to meet her, and for our son's to finally be able to play together! Anyhow, I am getting nervous because I am singing w/ the worship team today (what was I thinking to schedule myself to sing today? I am already going to be nervous) and my sis is coming to see us and whatnot. I think it will be great fun, I just need to focus on worship instead of thinking of what is going on around me...
Anyhow, I have to get ready because I am leaving for church in one hour and need to still get ready. OH my gosh wish me luck, please ;)
