Random Tid Bits

1. My older sister stopped by to give Mica a bag of clothes from my oldest nephew. Get this Mica's taller than him. The bag went to Isaak. He took in most of the pants. The shirts that my sister raved about were from J. Crew. I thought maybe Isaak wouldn't like them because they had pink on them. Not the case. He didn't like them because they are button down. "Mom that's just too much work!" He has a lot of clothes already, so I didn't push the issue. 





2. Travis is taking a class where he has art critiques on his work. It's pretty hard because his work takes so long to produce. He's been trying quicker things. He's making things out of found materials more and more. I guess the class is good in the fact that it's pushing him to use different materials other than bronze or steel.
   
   He has to read gobs of pages, for the class. Much of it is very abstract, and hard to retain. Then they discuss it. That gets hard with having kids. 


3. We had flash flood warnings on Thursday. If this is going to be another year like last year, I don't know how the farmers are going to last. :(


4. We've had some turn around with Admissions Reps. This isn't a bad thing. I actually like the person in charge way more than the other guy that was in charge before. Someone was hired under her. I don't know him at all. We were sitting in a staff meeting. I had my mug that says, I survived another meeting that should have been an email. No one has said anything about it the last 2 or 3 meetings. A few people saw it, and laughed. New Guy pointing at it, "So what do you mean by that?" I replied with, "It just means I'm silly. I even make fun of myself." He didn't respond. I don't think he approved. 





5. I decided I'd spend an evening entering giveaways. I hadn't purged in doing that for awhile. Many are multi blog giveaways. Ones where you have to like 15 blogs Instagram posts, some comments, then they send you to 15 FB pages, on to 15 Twitter pages, and it just kept going...Do you like these types of giveaways? I just about had carpal tunnel after entering a few. When you look at the entries it's 1,000's of people. My chance of winning is like 0 to none. 

Best Place to Buy Probiotics?

No Name Nutrition! My parents said that Whole Foods is good for getting probiotics as well. I tried GNC and Walgreens and did not care for what they had. GNC was only pill form. That might be great for adults, but not for children. Walgreens had options, but the cultures were limited and not even listed.

I already started Isaak on it. I hope his baby eczema clears up soon on his head! In the past this is the only way I've found to clear it up.

I've tried expensive soaps, lotions and oils. Nothing else seemed to work.

I have read that Olive Oil helps. It's just that I don't want Isaak looking like a grease monkey!

I also read that oat meal baths help with the itching. You grind up 2 cups of oatmeal and put it in the bath tub. I might try that tonight.

Have a great weekend!

My cousin Brent is getting married. Time to pack! I hope we get to our destination alright! It's a little crazy with the flooding that happened earlier.
