I finally got a picture, though it is a tad blurry.
Today was filled with some baby food making. Shelley brought us some squash so I read up on how to cook it. Wholesomebabyfood.com suggested I peel it since the little tummies can’t digest the gourd’s outsides that well. SO, I peeled it [...]
Our sister-in-law, Shelley, and her two daughters stopped by for a visit on Friday.
It was good catching up and she brought some yummy veggies with her (you know, since our veggie garden has been conquered by the 9-foot tall sunflowers and isn’t producing any, well, produce).
Enjoy the pics of the kids [...]
This is my second doll quilt gift (I think I forgot to photograph the first one upon completion) [...]
When you’ve just survived a week of 105ºF – 112ºF temperatures, you can probably bet that your electric bill is going to be high. And water bill. Even without the usage charges, our water bill starts at a lovely $80 so we know it’s gonna be high. But I didn’t sit down to gripe [...]
We left the house around 8:20 AM. Yes, that is extraordinarily early for Korben to be up and he had been up for an hour at that point. I think losing power from 10 PM-4 AM helped him sleep because it got freakin’ hot in here and he didn’t wake up until 6:30 [...]
We *almost* made it to the dinosaur tracks… but it being our first adventure, we had more fun with waterfalls and damsel flies (not to be mistaken for dragon flies) and didn’t make it ’round the first bend. Tonight I learned just what a girly-girl I truly am. I did not want the boys [...]
I’ve read them in about a three day span and I’m left thinking that these two books of the Bible totally need to be made into an action movie. David’s life was sure one adventure after another… You know those scenes when the bad guy is chasing the good guy on horseback when [...]
…don’t say anything at all.

I’m doing better this fine evening… getting a shower, putting on real clothes, makeup while *all three* boys napped helped immensely. Something about knowing I don’t look like a dump just lifts my spirits. I’ve been having lots of grey days in a row lately.
I’ve also been [...]
Our first blossom. She’s the most slender, most petite one of the bunch, but the first one to arrive on the scene. Her eighteen sisters are not far behind, though.
Eighteen more to bloom.
My dentist passed away last week and I had plans (though no appointment set up) to go back to him to try to figure out what the heck is causing this chronic pain in the left half of my face (centering around one molar, but spreading up through my jaw). Add that to my [...]
Indulge me if you will, I am typing up this post in response to this cloth diapering roundup (and giveaway! go here –>http://simplemom.net/the-simple-mom-cloth-diaper-review/) at simplemom.net and her last week’s worth of cloth diapering posts. I’ve been cloth diapering since August 9, 2005 (the day his stump fell off), so, almost four years. I’ve [...]
