special delivery

I love getting packages in the mail so today was a fun day!  I got my frontier order in and Bishop was entertained for a long time by the packing peanuts.  I think I might have to keep that box around for awhile.  You can’t bet cheap entertainment! 

When  I got home for my sister’s house tonight  I was so excited to see that another package had arrived!  In it was a fabulous gift basket from the kind people of Blissdom! The basket included a Poken (it’s a really cool electronic social business card) and a coupon organizer filled with coupons from ConAgra Foods!  I’m attending the Blissdom conference  for bloggers in a couple weeks and I can hardly wait!  Harry Connick Jr. is performing and I will get to hear MckMama speak!!!  I haven’t been this excited in a long time.  Well, I guess that’s not fair to say getting engaged on Christmas was almost as exciting.  Just kidding…of course!

Looks like he's having a blast in those packing peanuts! He is so cute, what a handsome little boy he is! I have a skin care question for you if thats alright. My daughter seems to have these little bumps on her arms and thighs. They look like small ingrown hairs. I've tried everything I can think of to get rid of them. I wash her bedding twice a week with sensetive detergent. I bathe her every other day and gently scrub her arms and thighs. I've noticed that lotion seems to kinda help. I've tried Johnsons, Burts Bee's, Baby Aveeno, and a some natural lotions. But I haven't found something that really helps. I was wondering if you have a product or maybe some tips that you think might help? Thank you!

Lucy it sounds like Keratosis Pilaris which usually effects the upper arms and inner thighs. It's usually worse in the winter too. Keeping her skin extremely hydrated is important and I wouldn't over exfoliate (maybe just once or twice a week with something gentle like sugar mixed with oil or cleanser). If you wanted to try anything of mine the lavender wash and oil would be really good for treating KP. Good luck and let me know if you have any questions. :)
