London's Skin

Little London has always struggled with super dry skin. It seemed like it was getting really bad the last couple of weeks. Specially on her little left leg, right behind her knee cap. We had started using the Target brand baby wash and noticed it got bad, so we stopped using it and we went to Babies R Us and spent nearly $50 on special soap and lotion for eczema. It's amazing how expensive things are but it was really worth it if it made her feel better. 

Today I worked a lot. I got up and worked 6 am - 8am then headed to Pat's office from 8 -12. I came home, packed the girls and took Mya home. We played with the Scottorns for an hour, headed home for naps. I ran and then worked for another hour. 

The girls woke up and we eat dinner - orange chicken with rice.After we facetimed with my mom. Tyson got home and had another bad day at work. It's been hard because it seems like this entire last month has been filled with horrible tenant issues and the gate keeps breaking down. 

We went on a walk to let off steam. We put the girls to bed at 830, then I headed back downstairs to finish a little more work before heading off to bed. 

It's time's like these - when you are in the MIDDLE of working toward your goal that it seems it will never happen. You keep chugging along and doing your best, delaying gratification and praying it all works out. You wonder how anyone does it. Still I have faith that we'll look back on these years and say "wow those were the good times". 

Tomorrow the girls have therapy and then we start to get ready to go on our big trip to visit the Bugarins :)
