You have been warned. :)
I think that throwing up is part of getting ready for a baby’s arrival. After-all once the baby comes one will have to deal with those types of occurrences on a regular basis. Well God must be preparing me. This morning a few minutes after my Dad called to ask how I [...]

It is a in God’s love that He allows and even appoints disapointment to come into our lives. He knows if we didn’t have it we would try and find our satisfaction in the things of this life and world instead of in more solid and eternal things as Himself. With Him is true joy and life. [...]
12 weeks = Baby the size of a?

LIME!!!
According to my husband comparing our baby to fruit and vegetables is silly. I on the other hand appreciate size comparisons as I don’t as readily think in inches and centimeters as my engineering minded guy does. These comparisons I found quite helpful albeit a bit humorous.

Well, things are getting back to normal at our quiet little household. A bit too quiet for my liking. Mom left for Columbus yesterday and I felt lonely that evening. Andrew had several things to do and I ended up with a crying spell. I tell you I don’t do this normally. Pregnancy does weird things to ones tear ducts. [...]

I am supposed to start showing a bit in a few weeks at least. Right now I don’t see too much difference. Just more fullness in the ab region. I can feel my uterus if I poke around in my low ab region it is just a firm spot and the midwife said it will [...]

This is interesting
Personally I prefer just reusing cloth bags. Trader Joes makes some nice ones. Too bad they are soo far away now.
The house

These are the pictures of the house before the family moved out. It is a bit more modern than I am used to but I figure that is why you decorate….To make a house more a kin to your families style. Thus tons and tons of pictures are put up and you add COLOR. Color [...]

This is heart breaking but how often is this the norm?
