Welcome Back to me!

Well I have finally came back to blogging. I have a feeling I will be back for good. So moving on.

“Jesus says that it only takes a mustard seed amount of faith [confidence] in the Word of God, to do the impossible.” Matthew 17:9

My walk: I hate that feeling of being stale in my walk. That I need to freshen it up. I need to renew my vows to the Lord. I am being honest in this as I feel thirsty for his word and I feel parched and need to be refreshed.  Even my prayers have become dull (at least to me). And I know this is happening because we are focusing so much on trying to have a baby, that I feel like if I don’t pray for it 24/7, We will never receive it. But I  know the Lord hears me, I just know I need to know I am being heard! WOW! Its amazing how you pour it all out and this is what is coming out. Now I know what my prayers will be focused on. Also my quiet time needs to be refreshed, I think that has so much to do with my walk.  Any recommendations would be helpful.

The Family: We are all great. James is currently at LDAC for work until August 2^nd. All I have to say is at least he is not deployed. I do miss him dearly. So does Noah. Speaking of Noah, my sweet boy…. He is full of fire and vinegar for sure. Nothing keeps him down. He was diagnosed with Pityriasis Rosea. Well, we thought we got rid of this pesky rash. Then it came back with a vengeance. So we have a referral into the dermatologist to see how it can be treated and rid. But oeverall he is good. I do want to touch on his needing learning disorder testing, but we are not sure of the logistics yet. When I know, I am sure I will need to process it here.

TTC: I wish I could say all is peachy. When I just feel so hopeless and down in the dumps about it. We have made the decision to try IVF, but so much go along with it, we may not even get to. Not really wanting to process it here just yet, but I know my prayers and talks with the Lord are helping me.

Products I love: Ok so I have to talk about my newest Mascara obsession. I LOVE LOVE LOVE They're Real by Benefit

This mascara is awesome! I have very thin and not very thick eye lashes. This mascara gives my lashes the look of falsies, without the hard work of putting them on. I love falsies but the way, but I only use them on special occasions and family pictures. I  have been using this mascara since February. I truly will not buy another brand for a while, it gives me what I have always been looking for. If i really want to pump up the volume, I use a primer underneath. Mine of choice is a Lancome product, Cils Booster XL. It works wonders... it definately will be in my must buy. I got a sample of it from Sephora, and who knew it would go in my makeup routine. Anywho thats it for a product review this time.

Foodie: I have a ton of recipes to post… Hmm I will have to work on writing them down and taking pictures of them very soon. The first one will probably chili. But I am waiting for my secret powder to come in. hahaha My mom has to send it from NM. But When I do get it, I will post it.

Well I guess I will end here! It feels good to write and share….

With Love and Grace
