Some love.....

No worries I have gotten over my slump of a few days ago. I thought I would actually share some good things from this week...and some news things that I found that I love....
First off baby boy #3...is still nameless, which is very very unlike us. Don't worry we are negotiating. Besides that this baby is popping out much quicker than the other two. I'm already wearing maternity pants....which brings me to my first new love, I found Capri's at Motherhood. They are fabulous and don't make me itch like other full panel pants I have tried. Another weird third baby thing....my friend Karin was asking me if I had a lot of pain when I was pregnant with Sawyer where my c-section scar is....of course I had none...that is until this week....I started having this horrid pain I have been told it is scar tissue and I can't believe how badly it hurts!!! Enough whining this is a happy entry I promise!!

My second new love that I have recently discovered is Bare Minerals make-up. I have been having horrible skin, very oily and very very broken out. I thought a change of makeup would help....I tried this makeup a few years ago but I wasn't a huge fan, but now they sell it at Macy's and I was able to get a consultation and it all makes so much more sense! and after a little over a week no more oily and far less acne!!!

Yesterday the boys and I went and played at the park with Grandma Jody, the boys were so happy to have a sunny day!! After the park we went to lunch with Aunt Patrice...we went to lunch at Corner Bakery...which is another LOVE....It is always good no matter what you get! Then we went to Sprinkles....and I must say I love cupcakes....I know this place has been very hyped up...but I think it is all about the flavor you choose...the first one I tried was good but then I tried the coconut and black and white.....the black and white cupcake was very very yummy. It did not hold a candle to the vanilla chocolate one that I thought was good.
So sorry I have no pictures...I am a lame mom and forgot to bring the camera....Well we are still trying to potty train Noah I think I have discovered so bribes that might work better than candy!!! I will keep you informed whether or not you wanted to know!! Wish me luck!!

Dr. B always told me that you feel everything more and more with each pregnancy...but what I want to know is what kind of bribes work better than candy??

I love bare minerals too! I've always hated normal foundation and the cakey "make-up feeling" it gave. And I was always afraid it looked so obvious that I was wearing it, lines, discoloration, etc. BUT bare minerals give similar coverage and feels great. First time I tried it I wasn't sold too, but I gave it another chance and am HOOKED.

I am a huge Bare Minerals fan!!! I have been using it for years. Welcome to the club! I think it is the best make up product out there.

Ok so off blog, you can totally join my bookclub!!! I was actually going to invite you the other day that is why I called and texted you if you liked to read. We meet at my house on the first Wednesday of every month at 6:30 PM. Can you come to our next meeting next week?

cari said...

We have church at 10:30!

cari said...

Hey Abby-If you do this book club will you tell me what books you are reading and talk to me about them too??

Darci said...

I will have to try Bare Minerals because I have not like what I have always used, MAC, lately. Sounds like you had fun and I will totally have to try Sprinkles, where is one???

So about 2 1/2 years ago I had a dream that mitch and i had a baby girl and named her hannah (which I am not a big fan of) then 2 months later my dad calls and he is like i had a dream you guys had a baby girl and named her hannah...so now I am wondering if that means we have to name our baby that?! I really am not crazy about it, but Mitch thinks we have to name her that, but that was 2 and 1/2 years ago...what do you think just a coincidence? Anyway names are hard!! Our baby kicks so hard it is fun when you can feel the baby move!

I am glad you are having a better week- I am telling you it is the weather. I hope the treasure chest works- anything to make that easier the better.

I have been wanting to try that for a couple of months (ever since I saw the new counter at Macys) I even went to talk to them but they were all busy and I didn't want to wait. I guess I will have to go try again!

The Four on Board said...

I LOVE bare minerals!! Yeah for you! Also, tell me more info on the book club.... I really want to join one!

Tiersha said...

Ok first off...LOVE Bare Minerals make up as well. It just is so natural and looks better than liquid or other stuff. Next, you have to try the red velvet Sprinkles cupcake. That is the best flavor. You'll never go to any other flavor!!

Aimee said...

I got the makeup today, I love it! Also, I read in the paper that Sprinkles is coming out with a cupcake mix line that is supposed to be pretty good, I thought of you.
