Well Pumpkin is in bed and Andrew is at a deacon’s meeting and I was just perusing diapering sites and things and I saw this diaper reviewed as excellent. I think it does make a lot of sense and would save money on the pocket diaper system. Maybe our next baby we will try one [...]

Here are a few links I have been enjoying.
Will the real sea salt please stand up? When you go to the grocery store they have those packages of Hain brand “sea salt” that cost like 99 cents. Well, they sound like a great deal until I found out that that is the same stuff as [...]

Well it took a few days to get this post publish ready. :) Poor Michaela caught a cold this week and has been snuffling and not feeling so great. It is really hard on mommies to see their little ones sick! I can’t believe next week she will be 6 WEEKS OLD! We go [...]
Peaceable Fruit
Posted in Homemaking, Scripture, baby, link, parenting, photos, women, tagged books, children, Homemaking, motherhood on November 17, 2008 | 2 Comments »
My mom gave Andrew and I an excellent book she had read and used years ago. It is called Peaceable Fruit by Gertrude Hoeksema. It is an older book but a jewel on parenting from pre-conception, pregnancy to the first 9 months and all the way through adolescence. I am still in the infant chapters but enjoying it much. There are so [...]

Andrew, Michaela and I have settled on a night routine that works for the three of us. Originally while pregnant I always said I would take care of Michaela all night long since Andrew would have to get up early for work. But since her arrival I have found out just how tired I get [...]
Week 2

Today Michaela is 2 weeks old and I turned quarter of a century old. I can’t believe all that has happened since last birthday! Andrew and I were about to be married in 2 months last year this time. We had dinner in Columbus at a sushi place. Mmm. My parents come in this afternoon and I can’t [...]
Little faith and being 4 days “over”
Posted in Homemaking, baby, link, pregnancy, women, tagged baby, birth, waiting on October 14, 2008 | 2 Comments »
My sister in law recently told me she went 10 days over with her last and ended up being induced! Oy. I hear from random places the norm is to go somewhere from 5 to 10 days over. I have decided that I will go approximately forever over. The constant thought running through my mind: “This baby [...]

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

This is heart breaking but how often is this the norm?
I miss my family. On a typical day I am with my son (awake) for about 30 minutes in the morning, 30 minutes at lunch, and about 2 hours in the evenings for a grand total of 3 hours per day. I spend more time [...]
Green

I would like to reccomend this, this and this website for recipe ideas. I miss my green smoothies. Right now with the morning sickness I can’t stomach the raw greens like I used to. Hopefully later in the preganancy.
By no means complaining ;)

My digestive system HATES me.
I have to pee C O N S T A N T L Y.
My rant is over.
Today has been an exceedingly productive 1st trimester day. I woke up a bit distraught over the massive pile of dishes overflowing almost the entire counter. The carpet covered with unreasonable amounts of dead flies, spiders and pale ladybugs. (The [...]

This is hilarious. Good prep for those days around the corner.
In other news amazingly Andrew and I went out for a date last night and actually ate something! GASP! Although I was a bit apprehensive about which Blizzard I should decide on to share with Andrew I finally decided on a double chocolate one as the [...]

Carbonated water is a life saver.
Swiss Cheese–I know weird!
The nausea has become extremely pronounced. I no longer cook. I gag when I look at most food or smell just about anything other than the foods listed above. So for now I am no longer worried about nutritional content rather I would like [...]

This is excellent advice for Valentines Day.
In other news I can’t remember being this tired in my life? Wow. This baby must be going through some growth spurt this week. 2 hour naps are now the official norm. Before they were utterly unheardof unless I were on the verge of death. I am also quite queasy starting about 11am. [...]

I love this blog. Crystal’s writings are so encouraging. I am finding her suggestions quite helpful too on schedules and such.
This article in particular sparked my interest as I have been finding a strange opposition on this point from so many places. What was once an expected thing has now become taboo or strange. The home [...]
A Woman’s Challenge

Another challenge from John Piper:
“I earnestly recommend that it be in the early morning, unless there are some extenuating circumstances. Entering the day without a serious meeting with God, over His Word and in prayer, is like entering the battle without tending to your weapons. The human heart does not replenish itself with sleep.

Self discovery

These questions from A.W. Tozer are quite helpful in discerning how one is doing spiritually.
Rules for Self-Discovery
1. What we want most
2. What we think about most
3. How we use our money
4. What we do with our leisure time
5. The company we enjoy
6. Who and what we admire
7. What we laugh at

Country sunrises and sunsets are beyond gorgeous.
It is the kind of day that wakes you up slowly with warm sun beams streaming through your window and opening your eyes up with cheerful rays. The warmth of the suns rays is coaxing me outside to capture some of the beauty with my camera. Maybe later I [...]
