More On How CUTE My Baby Is and Healing My Heels

If you’re my Facebook friend, you already got a dose of this!

If not, well, I’m tellin’ ya that my heart is overjoyed that one of my kids might look like me! 

You see, all I ever hear is how my kids look ’JUST LIKE THEIR {BIG} DADDY’…. which…don’t get me wrong… is NOT a bad thing…AT ALL…but sometimes you just like to think that you carried and nurtured this child FOR NINE LONG MONTHS…you nurse him/her….some longer than others….I’m probably gonna be a little weird on this last baby…sorry if that weirds you out…AND BTW, I am pretty sure I should be given a Lifetime Achievement Award from The La Leche League….mostly for all of the nursing difficulties I’ve overcome…I’m tellin you…I AM ONE TOUGH MAMA MILK COW!!!!

Ok, anyway…he arrives looking like he was cut right out of a mold of his daddy…….

BUT NOT THIS TIME!  NO SIREE! ☺

What do you think?!?!

No matter what, he is just so yummy.  I want to eat him up…..just like the other two.

And Big Daddy said, “Well, maybe the reason I think he is so beautiful is because he looks like you.”

And here I am all bitter and sad-like that I don’t have a kid that looks like me until now.

Big Daddy has a way of putting me in line…..a sweet way….

OH, DEAR LORD, THANK YOU FOR THAT MAN.  HE IS SO, SO PRECIOUS.

 

 

 

Ok, back to reality…

Before Christmas, I wrote about Flexitol…and how well it works and yada yada yada…but…THAT SMELL!

My heels were bad…but I used that stuff up…and then my good friend…(HEY CHERYL!)….recommended this AWESOME product….not sure what I did before it….

Gilden Tree Nourishing Foot Cream, $18

OH GIRL!

Here’s what I love:

1.  It rubs in like a lotion….no greasy mess that makes you have to wear socks to bed….while there is a time and place for thick salves (and I use this when I’m down with sleepin’ in socks!)….not EVERY nigHT.  (I can’t stand to sleep in socks….it’s one of my biggest annoyances in life.  I know, right?!)

2. It is recommended for those with health issues, so it is safe and healthy….yet EFFECTIVE.

3.  The scent.  Clean, refreshing, yum.  But gone by morning.  Which is a nice thing, too.

4. The best part?! Waking up with soft, HEALED feet!

 

According to gildentree.com….

Rich, aloe-based foot cream with shea butter. Excellent for dry skin and cracked heels. Gluten Free. Safe for diabetics and celiacs.
A serious, but gentle foot cream that almost magically heals dry skin on feet, repairing cracked heels and softening skin. Made with a Certified Organic Aloe Vera base, instead of water, so it's thick, rich and very creamy, but soaks in quickly. Kiran Forest scent.

 

 

I also got this…

 

Foot Scrubber…called “The Best” by “O” the Oprah Magazine…here’s the lowdown from their website….

How to use:

Add a few drops of liquid soap or Extremely Gentle Cleansing Gel to the terra cotta Footscrubber and gently scrub feet. Focus on especially dry or callused areas, such as heels, balls of feet and toes. Polish and smooth skin with the back-side of the scrubber. Best when used at end of shower or bath.

Why it really works:

• The "pumicey" texture works to gently scrub away dry skin, and the "washboard" side helps polish skin.

• Terra-cotta, used widely in the Indian Sub-continent, is fired in a kiln, so it never wears out.

Plus, these are made by a women’s cottage industry in Pakistan (I think?!) and so you feel like purchasing these helps someone.

I gave each woman in our family this set for Christmas…..if you join their mailing list, you will find many great deals and sales on these and many more great products!!!

I’m glad they have NO IDEA who I am….I just love you, Gilden Tree…and I will forever.

 

Alrighty, I’m over and out….just waitin’ a couple more weeks to close on our house…and MOVE IT ON OUTTA DODGE!!!!

 

Have a lovely Monday!
