2 posts behind....

Ok, So.... I am two posts behind on my 10 posts in 10 days challenge. I knew that this would be a challenge- but I have every intention of completing the challenge, and along comes life! J Starr is teething again, and so she { and subsequently I, } have gotten very little sleep the past two nights, and of course she ( and subsequently I ) have had some not so good days. My little one with her growing pains and Mommy with hers. Anyway, I forgot to do Thursday's post & then I was too tired to do one last night.
So today I am making up for the missed posts by making an outstanding 3 in one post!

Today's Post: I received my NEW glasses in the mail today!! I found this website: zennioptical.com via an article on realsimple.com about saving money; and I ordered a CUTE pair of glasses for a total of $12.95 (including shipping)!! they arrived today just under two week time frame and they look really cute on Moi,especially with my curls! The frame is black plastic w/ clear red accents at the temple. Even Hubby gave rave reviews & alot of compliments~ so much so that he's going to order himself a pair next week. I will definitely order another pair in a different style & color- U just can't beat that price!
Speaking of my curls~ I'm in LOVE with Cantu leave in Shea butter conditioner! It defines my curls while providing a soft hold and a shine that lasts for days at a time. IMy Hair & I just LOVE IT!!!

Friday's post: Ok, So, Friday was spent at the Inlaws house, and I bought the "Mocha Mom's Guide to a Fabulous Pregnancy" with me to give to my SisnLaw who lives just minutes away. This book was a good & easy read for me while I was pregnant. It gives perspectives on various topics of pregnancy & life as a pregnant mocha mom ;>
So we are talking and she says to me: " I just can't believe that I'm Pregnant". So she is in a Shock phase, which I guess you get that when you are not actively trying to get pregnant. Unlike Hubby & I- as we were both mentally ready & financially ready to have a child, so we were actively trying, and it took about 3 months for Us to get the YES. Now we are mentally ready for baby #2- but still working on being financially ready. I'm a firm believer that things happen when they are supposed to, which I said to SisnLaw- it's all about the timing~ the time is now for you to be pregnant. So I know that she is excited & I can tell that her Hubby would like to have a little girl. It would be nice for Janelle to have a little girl cousin to play with over the years ;>. But I think that it will be a boy. Now that I've said it & written it She will probably have a Girl! Etiher way a Healthy Baby and Everyone will be happy!

Thursday's Post: Ok, So, I can't remember what I was going to write about on Thursday, so I'll go with this: I am Blessed with Abundance. Recently [as in all this week] I've been trying to think abundantly, not only for myself but also for those around me & those that I don't even know to be full of abundance & knowing that all is well. This has really helped me in these times of financial shortages, and I know that we all are blessed with abundance ~ but we must choose to see it.
