Warpaint

So while I was downstairs changing the laundry ("Be a Better Me week 2-i'm totally caught up on laundry...) Amelia was upstairs in my drawers finding something fun to do. She found some mascara and decided to do a little makeover. Thick Makeover. When I saw her I kept repeating "Please let that be the Covergirl Professional $ 4.99 brand" Much to my chagrin it was the lancome
Amelia owes me $23.00.

Dear Brad,
If you are reading this for the first time and realizing that I do in fact spend $ 23.00 on mascara when I could get mascara for 5 bucks, I want you to know that there are some things that a gal just can't cut corners on and you know how when I itch my eyes over and over again and really start digging into them? That would be the cheap-o brand. Hope that's not a problem.
Lovin you-

Dang! Was it hard to get off?? Did it go anywhere else? Luckily, in this particular kid destruction category, playing in makeup hasn't been a big deal around here. :)

Just don't let my husband read this post! If he had any idea how much we actually spend to look cute, he'd flip! And be sure to keep a running tally on expenses so Amelia can pay you back. The Boy already owes us close to $200. Believe me, I WILL COLLECT!

I'm crying for you!! It's almost how I feel when people ask to use my hairspray or Heidi used my Kerastase to wash Mateo's hair. I'm like, AHHHH!!! That stuff costs 40 bucks a small bottle!!

Brad also doesn't realize that when they're super uber expensive, we make it LAAAASSSTTTT!!

Why I totally rule: How I rediscovered my chi

(In order to fully appreciate this post, you MUST put on the background music. Just click the play from youtube. This has potential to be a longagong post so you might as well enjoy some tunes. I did most of my training with these gentleman blasting in my ear. Vampire Weekend, I love you.) Here's the story with the gory details. Why do you tri? On October 18, 2004 I delivered a 16 week old boy in the same room of the American Fork hospital that I lost one six months earlier. (I get pregnant really easily.) The previous week I had seen the doctor and everything was looking good and right on track so yay for me. While the first one was devastating (a whole other post for a whole other day), it was number 2 that changed me. I was so angry at my body for betraying me and not letting me do what I wanted it to do. I figured I was doing all the "right things" with the taking care of myself so therefore, I would be able to carry the babies to term and everyone would live happily ...

I'll go where you want me to go dear Lord, but Primary?!

Brad took the picture of me teaching GD a year ago. I was not pleased. No pictures. Brad took this picture of Max while I was teaching GD a month ago. I was pleased. Pictures of Max are fine by me. Some important thoughts on my new calling: In the 21 years since I have been in Primary as a merrie miss (apparently they are not called that anymore), I have subbed a handfull of times. It was not a success. One time, while subbing for Brad I went into the class and the boys had escaped out the window. All I saw were a set of feet as the kid was leaping out. Another time, while subbing for Brad I used the tie some kid was using and irritating everyone around him with and TIED HIM TO THE CHAIR. Another time, while subbing, the kid sliced his finger on the chair (not the same kid and he was not trying to escape my tying him up.) and ended up in the ER. (and it so happens that his mom is my 2nd counselor. I think that's funny.) I really really really loved teaching Gospel Doctrine. I hope ...
