Poor little bummies

So Mylee has a slight comstipation problem, and by slight I mean big problem. She has these tiny, and I mean tiny little poops several times a day, (and it is never enough) then gets diaper rash, from the constant wiping. We have tried just about evrything to make her sore bum better, but everything has failed. We have put cornstarch to A & D ointment, Butt paste, all sorts of things. So I am at the store yesterday or tThursday or sometime and I was walking through the aisle at Target that has all of the Burt's Bees products. (We are slowly converting to ALL green products) And notice a diaper rash cream. Now don't get me wrong, it was pretty expensive, but I bought it anyways, (it was also on clearance) Came home and used it right away. Although her precious little tushy wasn't 100%, the next morning it looked fabulously better! And the product is all natural. AMAZING!!!! It doesn't use as much as the other creams we've used because its thicker and gives Mylee a little aroma of chamomile, which keeps me a little calmer. I'm never going back. I'll use it for life. The ingredients are: sweet almond oil, zinc oxide, beeswax, lavandin, hybrida oil, jojoba oil, chamomile flower extract, calundela flower extract, lavendar oil, tocophrel, canola oil, rosmary leaf extract, and soybean oil. It is not tested on animals, the package is made of 38% recycled plastics and can be recycled again. I beleive that it is gluten free, for any kids with celiac disease and it smells great! so if aanyone is having bottom problems I highly recommend this product... So go now, soft tushies all around!

My sister

Well I guess I didn't do it right, and I can't figure it out. I guess a career with computers is out of the queswtion. It's crazy cause my sister is amazing at computers. Well actually she is pretty much amazing at everything she does. I have never seen anyone like her. SHe can do anything and she has this way of making things happen for her. She can play any instrument. (Maybe not the violin, but I'm not sure she has tried) And she can play them well. She's artistic and creative. She sews, she can create web pages and what not. She is kind and gentle, forgiving. She's not judging. She accepts people for the way they are. In a lot of ways she is like a child. She gets angry quickly, but can let it go just as fast. She loves with all of her heart wether its practical or not. Sure she has made some mistakes but she tries hard to correct them. That's more than I can saay about a lot of people. She's an inspiration really. I mean, I can't make anything happen.
Sarah and I didn't spend alot of time getting along through out our lives. We were always too different, and I am always too judgemental. My biggest fault, I think. Honestly I don't think I ever did anything to even make her like me, and yet she forgives me and loves me time and again. We completely different. We always have been, and I guess I let that get into the way of any positive relationship sisters can have. I accept that for the most part if not all of the part that our lack of relationship os my fault. For not loveing and accepting her for who she is. For trying to change her into what I think is right. Foro not remembering that everyone is different and there are plenty of people who judge me just as harshly as I have been judging her. For only seeing her faults and not all of the amazing things about her! Its my fault! And she is amazing.
She still doesn't do things the way I think she should, but I am sure there are lots of things I do that she thinks should be different, and she is always there for me. Through thick and thin. SHe is truley a beautiful person. So here is what I ask of all of you! No matter who it is, take the time to find out a little about that person you should appreciate more. THe person you spend too much time judging and not enough loving. Learn to appreciate all of the great things about that person, and remember them every time you think something negative. You could be missing out on knowing a great person. Maybe one of the best in your life. Take a chance and open your heart, and if you know Sarah. Taske some time to learn about her. SHe might be a little different, but who isn't. I'm sure if you take the time to really get to know her, you'll be amazed as well! She's a great person, and I am lucky to know her let alone have her as a sister. I just wish it didn't take me twenty five years to figure it out! I also wisah she knew this blog existed... Maybe I'll let her in on it!

Captured by Kate

These are a few of my favorite photos That were Captured by my friend Kaytee. She came over and hung out for awhile while Noah didn't cooperate and still managed to get some good photos. She's amazingly talented and fair in price. I suggest hiring her! Hope you enjoy these as much as I have!... I hope I did this right

Black Friday

This is probably going to sound crazy... Well of course it would, it is coming from me. I often say things that sounds crazy. Black Friday is coming and there are such amazing deals hitting the stores. Just at Walmart alone a bajillion things I need and want are there for amazingly low prices. I would love to get up at three in the morning and go shopping, but.... I am petrified of all the crazy people. I hate when people are mean to me, I will probably cry. That's right... I am crazy, but whatever. So if anyone has any tips, or wants to come with me and protect me, please let me know! Thanks!

So....

So... Obama won... I am not sure if this is a victory or defeat for our nation. I will say, that since I layed my eyes on Barack Obama I knew that he was destined to be our president. What this means for our country, I am not sure. I think that its great that we as a nation created history last night, but was he the better choice? I shouldn't have much of an opinion since I, myself didn't vote. Why you ask. Well it's simply because I was so unsure. Not just a little unsure, but I was completely undecided. I guess it doesn't really matter now, so Congratulations to all those who voted for Obama and supported him. And I am sorry for the McCain lovers. I hope this means greatness for our country! Good luck to us!

call

I lost my phone. It is somewhere in my house, but I can't seem to find it. The last I remember having was on the kitchen counter, and now it is gone... maybe forever. I feel like I am totally lost from the world. And I need to make a bunch of calls, like I have to get Noah in to see a dentist, and I would like to call my mother and see how she is feeling. Not to mention, if someone has called me I would never know. Hopefully nothing tragic happens....
So if you can't get a hold of me, I am not missing, or dead or even avoiding calls, i just can't find my phone... Beautiful

Transitioning....

I have to say, going from stay at home mom, to working mom is quite a change... And its hard. I still have to do all of the stay at home chores, but in less amount of time. I will say that I lost a lot of weight. I don't seem to get a lot of time to just sit down... And my patience for children is very thin. Part of me just wants to quit, but the extra money is beautiful, and my cousin really needs me... If things don't get easier, for ma and the kids, we are going to quit. The aren't adjusting as well as I had hoped, but we'll give them a little longer.... We'll see
