This week has been filled with good things for the most part. If you remember from my one of my other updates I said we got our window shot out by a B B. Well my dad contacted his window company and they replaced it, get this, for FREE. There are still good people in this world. I was so happy that I cried. That saved me so much money and heartache.
As far as luck goes my week only got better. I got tons sewing orders thanks to my great friends that truly believe in me. This is the greatest thing in the world. I got 4 dresses done, one being a RUSH order, in less than 2 days. No small feet when you work full time outside the house, have two crazy boys, and a great Hubby. I did it, everyone loves their dresses. I already have a pretty full week for next week too, have to finish a Valentine's Dress for my Maleaha, make some great burp cloths for a sweets friends new baby, make a dress for a friend at work, and finish my boys tie shirts for an upcoming Cupid Party at school. I'm blessed to be busy and able to use my creativity in an affective way. I'm also going to start making something new very soon. PACI CLIPS. I'm so excited about these. I found and ordered for lead free suspender clips from a great site and even got them at wholesale price. I can't wait to show these off. They will be awesome. Oh and how can I forget to add this, I'm now an offical business owner. I got my Sales Tax and Use Certificate in the mail yesterday. So So So Excited. Addi Lyn Creations will hopefully be around for a long time to come.
So when I tell help about Alopecia I normally dont talk much about the nitty gritty details, I really try to save people the boring story. Well I'm going to give you some insight to the not so fun details. So when I was first diagnosed with Alopecia I just had the basic AA, Alopecia Areata, which means it is just spots on the scalp and can come and go. I can grow into other types, well mine did. At first we thought it had just moved to Alopecia Totalis, which is just a loss of the hair on your head. But quickly realized that wasnt it. What I have is called Alopecia Universalis, or universal hair loss (full body). So when a normal person gets runny nose it tickles there nose hair before it gets yucky, well guess what? I don't have nose hair so when I have a runny nose (like I do right now) I can't feel it. I will spare you the rest of the details of that happens next. LOL. So if you see me whiping my nose quite a bit you will know why. The same goes for my eye, I have to eye lashes so I get stuff in my eyes constantly and have to carry eye drops. Simple things that I used to take for granted and now I just have to deal with. Oh well it is just hair. LOL

Hair (or lack there of) and Ideas in My Little Head
So I haven't put a picture up on here with me with hair (Pre Shave). So I figured today was a good day.
No Hair on my head, no Eye brows, no Eye Lashes. Just me, take it or leave it.
Now on to what I have been making soon. Snack/Sandwich Bag, Valentine's Tie Shirt, and a decorated Cloth Diaper.
Snack / Sandwich Bag
Trenton's Valentine's Tie Shirt (don't worry Jack is getting one too)
Jack's decorated Cloth Diaper Blankie
Anyone who has seen Jack recently know that he has a new name and it is Linus, the kid carries a blankie around everywhere with his thumb in his mouth. It is so cute and funny. Oh yeah he does have a few new words; FOO BALL, Bus, Yes. So funny.
This Picture was taken on Trenton's 4th Birthday, exactly 1 wk and 1 day before we shaved my head. I still had my eye brows and eye lashes.
Now here is a picture of me 2 days before Christmas, Almost 4 months Post Shaved.

A BB Hole and Weekend with Friends
Saturday my lovely hubby got up and headed outside to take down the Christmas Light, yes we are that family, LOL, while I got the boys fed. He was almost done when he found something very odd.
At the top right of this photo you will notice something quite allarming. Yes that is a hole in the outside glass. If you look at the bottom middle of the photo you will notice a small goldish BB and glass. Ugh. Well at least it is just the outside glass and not the whole window, but stil a bummer none the less. Oh well. My Dad works in construction so I will give him a call and get a number for a glass guy. We have no clue when this happened, we had the blinds open the Sunday before to see the snow so had to of happened during the week last week. We don't live in the hood but man this makes me thing we do. LOL
That was Saturday morning, so after this we got ready and got out to get our errands done before meeting up with the Ortowski's. I got my AE jeans exchanged, zipper we messed up. Used Jimmy's Best Buy rewards points at Best Buy on some giftcards for ourselves. LOL. Got the list of things we needed at Target and by then had two super hungry boys and a flustered mommy. We headed to Rosa's for some lunch and then back towards home. Got the boys to lay down for a little while and then it was time to go meet the Ortowski's at Joann's for Hollie and I to pick out some crazy fun fabric for Valentine's dresses. I also got some fabric to make some more food safe water resistant reuseable lunch/snack bags and some cute outer cotton fabric to go with that. Then it was over to their house for dinner. Garlic Potatoes, YUMMO.
Sunday was Maleaha's 2nd Birthday party at the Ortowski's house. So we got up ate quickly and made our way as a family to the grocery store to get out list for the week. I started The Grocery Game this past week and wanted to put my knowledge to use. We ended up saving over $16 total at Kroger, not bad for our first time out of the gate. We will see if that total increases in the coming weeks. So far my coupons saving have paid for a month of The Grocery Game charges, in just one week. Bargin in my eyes. After that we showered and headed to the Ortowski's to help with party preparations. We ate pizza, watched Maleaha open presents and then she had had enough and needed a nap. So we had a few cupcakes and decided to call it a day when Jack start to get fussy at about 5:30. We went home napless so far for the day and just lounged for the rest of the evening.
Jack's words I forgot on my prevous post:
Pweese (Please)
Here Go (as in, Here you go)He says Here Go Mommy mostly
No

Jack A Doo
So I don't talk tons about my sweet boys so I figured would start since they aren't getting any younger. Jack, my sweet Jack, he is 17 months old and a character. I don't really keep up with his baby book like I should so I'm going to write about his "new thing" as they come. I will start with his words, the kid can talk. His first word, Da Da, which made his Daddy's day. I guess I will just list the words he can say.
Daddy
Mommy
Nannie
Papaw
Bob
Momaw (Mamaw)
Ky-yee (Kylie, a girl at his daycare)
Hi
Bye
Ears
Eyes
Hands
More
Milk
Fru Woops (Fruit Loops)
Dog (and knows the sound a dog makes)
Ma-yee (Maleaha, my "Niece")
Go
Kank Ew Mommy (Thank you Mommy, says Mommy even if Daddy does something for him)
Ut is dat (What is that, first sentence back in Oct/Nov)
Shoes (he says this with his lips all pursed up)
That is all I can really think of right now. He is so much like Trenton in so many way that it is funny and scary at the same time. They are so fun together, they love to play with each other and Trenton is a great help in keeping Jack entertained in the car. Jack is teething right now and can be some kind of cranky, we are working on K-9 teeth. So far we are at 14 teeth including his bottom K-9's, we are just waiting on those top to pop through soon. Hopefully teething will be over for a while after that.
He is growing up so fast that it makes me sad, he is still in his crib because I don't want him to get older. He still uses small sippy cups because I don't want him to get bigger. I am very happy that we are out of the formula baby baby stage though, it was totally fun while it lasted but I love love love seeing him learn something new every single day. I love my sweet Jack A Doo and I love life.

Alopecia
After breaking down last night for the first time in a long time I felt like it was time to write about Alopecia and me.
I was first diagnosed with Alopecia when I was 7 years old, after mom noticed some small bald patches on my scalp. From what I can remember I went to a Dermatologist at what was then Trinity Medical Center in Carrollton. I had two creams we put on it, one was clear and we used it in the morning the other was brown, smelled yucky, and stained everything so much so that I had to wear an old woman's night cap. LOL. I look back at my second grade pictures and realize that man I really was losing hair, I had a good size spot in my bangs, I really didnt notice it at the time though and my friends didnt either. After the spots grew hair we thought everything was ok and it was gone.
When I was 21 I had been in a very stressful, very abusive relationship for nearly 3 years by then. That is what I noticed some spots, I flipped out. I remembered losing my hair back when but I couldnt for the life of me remember even the name of what I had. So I found a Dermatologist who again told me what I had and explained a little more about it. Alopecia is a Auto Immune Disease that has no cure, but it only effects my hair follicules. The Dr I went to this time was in Irving, he decided that I needed to try steroid shots in my scalp (not just one or two but 10 - 20) and he also gave me some other creams and topical meds. The spots I had this time were small but were scattered on the left side of my head, which my hair dresser and I thought wouldnt spread to the other side.(Will get into this more later). The steroid shots helped but it also helped that I ended that extremely volital relationship. You see Alopecia is said to be brought on by stress or stressful situations.
After the end of that relationship I moved back home to Lewisville and then I had to find another Dr to take over my treatments. I found a Hippy Dermatologist in Grapevine. I had one spot that was stubborn and didnt want to grow, it got larger and was the size of a softball on the left side of my head by the time treatment started working. This time the shots were numbering close to 30 or more at a time. This caused me to have migraines. I then began noticing thinning on my arms and small spots on the right side of my head, the Dr wrote me a script for an Oral steriod to help with this. Every thing grew back and I only had a small spot here and there after that. During this treatment time I meet Jimmy but finially had my hair back before we got married.
When I got pregnant with Jackson in Nov 2008 I noticed my hair lose was starting again. It began as a thinning and then I started noticing spots on both the left side and the right side. I just thought it was a hormone change and would talk to my OB about it during my appt. Well she said I could go back to the Derma if it bothered me that bad. I decided that I was going to wait it out and see if it was just hormone related. I was blessed with a huge head of thick red hair so I really covered all the spots well. After Jack was born I experience the normal after pregnancy hair loss but for me it didnt stop at 5-6 months like normal. My spots got larger. I set a goal of hair growth by Jackson 1st Birthday, August 4, 2010. Well I didnt have any growth just tons more lose, so much so that I was sweeping the bathroom floor 3 times a week. I was growing tired of picking it off of everything so I found a support group and decided I needed to eduacation myself more on Alopecia. People suggested going to see another Dermatologist, one that specialized in Hair Disorders. I thought I found one, well I was dead wrong. They only use shots and I decided it wasnt worth the pain or expense for me. They also had a few other topical suggestions but i wasnt willing to damage my scalp to attempt to get hair back.
As August drew to a close I decided I was ready to take the plung and shave my head. Some people thought this was a really drastic move but I new that it was only a matter of time, my spots were show through so much that it would effect my self esteem and my boys. So on a Sunday afternoon, surrounded by my best friends, my boys, and my best friends famiy I cut my pony tail off by myself. I needed to feel like I was making this decision and that I was winning and not letting the Alopecia beat me. After this Jimmy shaved what I had left off. It was so different and odd at first. I cried a lot in the first two weeks, I just plain missed my hair. I missed the person I was, I missed being me. Jimmy always was there to pick me up and tell me, "Babe I married you, not your hair". This really helped. I explained to Trenton what Mommy had and that I was perfectly fine but I just didnt have hair. He was completely fine with this and loved rubbing my head. He even stood up infront of his Pre-K class and explained what Alopecia was and that he didnt like people talking about his Mommy. My sweet boy, he is so wise beyond his years.
Since I shaved the first time I had to continue to shave two times a week for about 2 1/2 months then it went to once a week. That brings us up to now, i havent shaved my head in well over a month, I have lost all of my arm, leg, armpit, eyebrow, and eyelash hair. I still have some fussy patches on my head but not many.
So before you ask where I am in treatment (people assume Cancer) how about asking how I am or even tell my I have a pretty head. Because I do. LOL

And the Year is Almost Over
First off, Christmas. Our Christmas this year was so fun, the boys loved every minute of it. They got some awesome toys, books, board, games, clothes, movies, and even a TV (for the playroom LOL). Jimmy and I decided that we needed to start getting each other something so that the boys know that Christmas is about giving to everyone not just kids. I got a cutting mat, rotary cutter, and a new cloth tape measure from Jimmy and the boys. Just what I asked for. LOL. The boys and I got Jimmy a socket set, air compressor, and coffee.

Date Night
Friday Night Jimmy and I got a much needed date night. Jimmy planned the whole thing out, he called my mom to see if she and my dad could/would keep the boys all night. She said yes, he then planned the events. He even kept the secret all week, totally not Jimmy. This is the guy that 2 years ago couldnt wait for christmas so we opened our gifts on Christmas Eve. LOL. He did finally tell me the plan Friday Evening when i was waiting on him at my parents house, he was of course running late after leaving work late and getting stuck in traffic. He planned for us to go to California Pizza Kitchen in Frisco, a place we loved when we lived in Dallas and were without boys. Then we were going to go see Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows Part 1 which was to start at 9:45. I asked him if he knew how long the movie was, his response UUUHHHHH no. 2 hours and 30 minutes long, UUUUUHHHHHH ok I dont want to be in Frisco that late. So we settled on Studio Movie Grill in Lewisville. Movie was great, food not so much. The night was young so we were going to go do something else, but we could figure out what else to do. We normally do everything with the boys so we couldnt think of any adult things to do. So we drove, I suggested going to the lake. Yeah that was a joke, every place we went looked scary at night so that did fly. So what did we do? Went to Quik Trip to get me some Wine and then went home. How boring is that? LOL to top it off the wine wasnt every good. LOL
