Uh Oh!

Just a few minutes ago I was sending out a quick email to my family with a few new pics of the kids attatched. As I was typing a quickly as I could (because Claire was playing in the other room by herself) I was thinking to myself "I really should wait to do this at nap time". Yup, I should have listened to myself. Just as I finished the email she came around the corner saying "mommy, mommy!" I looked up and she was carrying my giant cup of coffee and it was sloshing everywere. Don't worry, it had cooled off! So, after I calmly took it from her I went and mopped the whole entire living roon and hallway! My house smells like Starbucks now! What a fun morning! Yesterday we went to the doctor. Claire has Eczema... poor thing. She walks around saying "itch, itch!" Hopefully it will go away with her new medicine. As for everything else, we are just packing up and getting ready to move over to Fort Worth! Here are a few new pictures of the kids!

I know I'm a stranger to you but I read your post about your precious family and noticed that you mentioned that Claire has eczema. I just wanted to pass along something that worked wonders for us. My daughter is almost 11 and has suffered with eczema all her life. We've tried all different products...prescription and over the counter lotions, etc. It's painful and itchy for the kiddos and very frustrating for us as parents. It's hard to see your child suffer like that and have no idea what to do. Well, this past January we found our cure. We found a company called Shaklee that makes a product called Basic H. It's an all natural, environmentally friendly cleanser. Our daughter started using Basic H in her showers as per a recommendation from a pediatrician. Within a couple of days her redness went down and she was finally feeling relieved. We have not had any breakouts for 6 months. She is as happy as a clam and wants everyone to know what Shaklee Basic H did for her. Just thought I'd pass that info along...from a fellow Texan. Check out my blog at www.journey2wellness.blogspot.com to read more about how Shaklee products have helped our little family.

Jamie, Thank you so much for your advice! Claires doctor told me that she will "outgrow" this problem... but everyone I have talked to says otherwise! I will definatly try anything for her! My mother in-law sells Shaklee, so I am will definatly try it! Thanks again! Emily
