From the Boring life of Liz...

I haven't posted for a long time and it's not because I don't have the time it is because I never have anything to post. I tried to think of any cool things we have done, any funny things Zack has said (he says funny things everyday, but I didn't think anyone wanted to hear all of them), or anything new. But I couldn't. So in a nutshell...I have a boring life. The best thing about my boring life is that I don't think it is boring...I LOVE my life and wouldn't change it. So here are some pieces of my boring life...

1. Josh's Hair:

We cut almost 2 inches off of Josh's hair. He had a nice mullet. I thought it would fall out, but it kept getting longer. So snip-snip. It's gone. (He also has enough hair on top to make a ponytail...if only he was a girl.)


Before:













This is the hair! I can't believe it was that long!!!















After. He looks like a boy!!!

2. New beauty secret:
K-this is going to sound silly. I am always looking for cheap ways to look better. I love looking great but hate spending money on stuff so superficial. I heard on a TV show that you can make a face mask out of an egg. I tried and my skin has never been so soft!! So I dare you to try it. Here is what you do.
1. Separate an egg. Put the yoke in a little bowl and the whites in a little bigger bowl (you have to whip them).
2. Using a make-up brush, but the yoke on your face. It will make you look jaundiced. Leave on for 10 minutes then wipe off then wash off.
3. Beat the whites till frothy.
4. Put whites on face. You can leave these on as long as you want. The longer you leave them on the firmer your face gets. Then wash them off and wash your face.
I know it sounds ridiculous, but I swear it makes my face soft...plus they said if you do this once a week by the time you are 55 you will look 40.

3. Family Night:

For family night we made cookies and let Zack decorate them....he had fun!!







This is what Josh thought if it...


Yes...he would get as many sprinkles on his hand as possible and lick!! YUM!!



4. Josh-
Josh has been cuter than ever lately---well after getting over bronchitis. He sleeps through the night, giggles, and is eating great!! I am actually liking nursing at the time. I love his giggles! I love that I can put him in his crib and he just falls asleep. I love his hugs and cuddles...this is alomost making me baby hungry again....almost...I'm not that crazy!

5. Zack-
The other day I asked Zack if mommy had 2 cute boys. He said "Nope, just Zacky!" I love that he is talking now! I love seeing bits and pieces of his personality. He is a lot smarter than I thought. He started naming colors the other day...who knows where that came from. He can count to 10 but we all know where that came from.


Now you can see...my life is boring...but at least I posted about it...right?

I don't think it's boring at all. But I totally hear you about not knowing what to post. I've been struggling with that too. But the "boring" details of your life invites people into your life. I always love seeing other people's life. You're great!

i want to see a picture of you with egg on your face. :) I think I might try that little trick.

You should set a goal to post one cute thing Zack says every day for a week. I totally would read it. Plus, you could do it while you are waiting for the egg on your face to dry!!!

I understand what you mean by not having anything to post.  I haven't posted in a while because I, too, feel like I don't have anything to say.  But I sure did enjoy your post.  It's amazing how fast the kids grow up and become little people.
