Surprise! Its a Girl

Well, my 7-month pregnancy is over. (we were in denial the first 2 months so it's been a short one lol) On July 31st we welcomed Addi into our little family.

When I first discovered I was pregnant, I was in shock! I thought I was done having kids. Moreover, I thought I was done being pregnant. I don't enjoy pregnancy like some women. I'd have had more kids if I didn't have to endure the 9 months of being uncomfortable or sick and what have you. But I will say that in the end, it's all worth it. And love, at first sight, takes over.

I'm thinking of coming back to blogland now that school has started-- but I guess time will tell. And I'm very glad to see that you've posted something as well. Hope you keep it up, especially so I can see that cute baby of yours (since I never go on facebook I know I need to take that leap but I just haven't been able to get myself to do it)

Fool Who Ripped her Pants..

That's right Sponge Bob, you're not the only one! At some point today at my daughter's Cobra Kid Award assembly I quite possibly may have ripped the seat of my cargo capris. Question is when exactly. See all the parents sit in the back of the multi purpose room (what happened to separate gyms, cafeterias and auditoriums?) When your kid's class is called, that's your Que to get your camera ready because your child is about to receive the coveted Cobra Kid Award. Get your butt up out of your chair and get close (especially if you don't have a super powered lens on your camera, cuz your lucky if you will even be able to catch a decent Kodak moment in the lighting provided by elementary schools). So did it happen before or after I stood up to take pictures of Mr. Newkirk's 4th grade class with my back (and behind) to the gamut of proud parents? Or did it happen at Costco? One can only hope not to see a mother of two arching her back while pushing a heavy laden...

Diary of a Makeup Artist #24 - Nothin At All

"Who is your favorite celebrity you've worked with?" This is a question I get asked often. Honestly it makes me uncomfortable because I feel like my favorite isn't the asker's favorite and they're never impressed. Jude Law, Sylvester Stallone, Molly Sims... none hold a candle to "Heart"in my book. I can still remember in the 8 th grade opening a gift that contained a cassette entitled "HEART". This was MY tape, not my dad's L.P. that he would make me a copy of, this was a true cassette with a genuine cover and the songs printed (not handwritten) on the cassette itself. Ooooh see see, the lyrics are written in the jacket, no more rewinding and fast forwarding trying to figure out the words to my favorite songs. And look how cool Ann and Nancy were, I'll be staring at this for hours thank you very much, AND it rocked! Listening to Ann belt out a rockin tune in her amazing crisp and rich voice was not new to me. See my dad Te...

Back in the Saddle Again!

Well the California Dreamin is over for now, we are back in the swing of things in good old Boulder City. School started two days ago and the vacation ended a week ago. It was nice to escape the Vegas heat and I did sneak off to Mickey's place for a day (one day is CLEARLY not enough time to hang at the Magic Kindom). Even though I could have spent a week there, my marriage would never have survived, you see my hubby has a bad taste for Disneyland. He says its my fault, that I've burned him out on it. I say its because he doesn't have that twinkle in his eye, that Disney Magic in his blood. Well at least the monkeys do. He does have some great pool boy skills though. Wink wink! Well the dreamy do nothing vacation came to an end and the real world has set in. Problem with dreamy is it gets boring and you have nothing to blog about except dreaminess. Eh! I've been back a week, so there's plenty of crap to report, but I'll start here... Good to be back at ...
