My First --What I'm Loving Wednesday!



I am Loving that Kloee finally has enough hair to put in a ponytail!!! And most important she left it in :-) I haven't been able to get her to wear a bow in over a year!



I am also Loving this perfect weather we have been having.

And I am way loving that I found out why my wedding rings suddenly started breaking my fingers out and feeling like they were on fire! ...my hormonal changes have caused me to become allergic to nickel.

I am loving that I found a girl on Etsy that makes amazing handmade nickel free wedding rings.. I am hoping to order the ring I designed next week! I haven't been able to wear my rings in over a month :-( it just doesn't feel right.
