Does the boo boo look better? At least the swelling is almost completely gone. Poor baby is pretty self-conscious about it, so I've had to head people off when I see that they are about to react. I've been pretty impressed that she hasn't messed with her eye or seemed too bothered with pain. Just bashful about people staring at her.
Today was my 32nd birthday - erg! (I promise I'm not soliciting b-day wishes!) Michael asked me what I wanted and I replied that I wanted better skin care products-lol. Actually I really do. So.... if you have cleansers, eye creams, or other cosmetics that you really love, I'm in the market. My friend Jean Anne was sweet enough to give me a pedicure today, even though I was a total schmuck and forgot her b-day last week. Why am I so bad at remembering these important dates?? Natasha was also sweet to bring me breakfast when she dropped off Avi Joy for the morning. And my darling hubby took me to what I think will become a new favorite, Thai-Siam, for dinner tonight. Sarah worked really hard today to learn to sing happy birthday and by bedtime she was doing a pretty good job. (A thing I should have remembered to video.) A pretty good day, I'd say.This weekend was the start of the fall/winter Just Between Friends sale. It is a huge children's consignment sale that happens twice a year. I volunteer to work a shift at each sale, so I get to shop at the pre-sale and always come home with really great finds. Everything is gently used and they are really strict about what can be consigned. I came home with shoes and clothes made by Stride Rite, Jumping Jacks, Gap, Gymboree, Old Navy, Oshkosh and more for a fraction of the price. I also find great deals on toys and other baby gear. My most exciting (to me) purchase was a newer model of Sit-N-Stand stroller that is in mint condition. I was also able to sell one of my double strollers at the sale, which was awesome. I know that JBF is a franchise, so if you have one in your area I highly, highly recommend shopping JBF for deals.

HAppy birthday, Heather!!! I didn't know we were so close in age! (I turned 32 on the 10th!)
If you discover any great skin care products, let me know. I'm also in the market......feeling a little old and afraid I'm looking it, too.
Happy Birthday!! I too am always looking for better skin care products! My problem is that I am cheap.......so if you find something let us know. :)
I am so sorry about Sarah's eye. It does look better. Poor thing.
Happy Birthday!!!!
I use Clinque. I have really sensitive skin and that is the only stuff that doesn't mess up my skin. You might try going to Sephora as their consultants will help you find what is the best match for your skin type.
Oh, my green room!!
I have recently changed to L'Occitane and seriously love it so much that I've changed to their shower gel, lotion and hand soap. HOWEVER, I'm not known for my frugal-sense and I generally have no "brand" allegiance. But, I can say that my 44 year old "age" spots are fading....and that is enough for me.
Seeing your postings about Sara's eye brings back memories of my son when he was about four. He fell at the daycare, hit his eye right in the doorframe. The puffiness looked EXACTLY like my son's, in the same eye too! He asked me in the store why people "hated" him so much because of the stares. I stopped feeling "guillty" because I thought people thought I did that to him. It's the worse feeling in the world.
