Making the Change
We often talked about using cloth diapers (CD’s), but never followed through to do the research. Sure, sure we had plenty of time in our wait for Elijah, but it just wasn’t fun research at the time. Then when we received word that Elijah would be home in just two weeks, we quickly prioritized. We […]

…at least for us. Is the line darker? I can never tell!
I think we’re saying it’s a surge. The photo doesn’t quite look the same in person. The line on the left is my supposed surge line and the line on the right is the control. They look the same in color (at least to us), but […]

Our Family Begins
Lotus has started the Birth Story Carnival. This is our story of how our family began.
As long as I can remember, I knew I wanted to have children. So it seemed natural that as our relationship grew we began to discuss raising a family. I don’t remember quite when it first came up or who broached the subject, […]

Not to be morbid or dramatic, but these thoughts of death have often run wild through my head. Yet just another one of my OCD characteristics shining brightly. Last night as we drove home from the last of our fun-filled Easter activities, I picked this topic of conversation, yet again. This time it has a […]

Just kidding! My feelings really weren’t hurt. It really just made me crack up. Yesterday morning, I was super excited to go get Elijah from his bed, so I quickly got his milk (this child must have his milk first thing in the morning!) and went in his room, happy, jumping up and down with […]

No Rest for the Wicked
For almost a week now, both Mom and Mama have not had a solid night’s rest. Don’t get me wrong - it is definitely not Baby’s fault. Elijah is sleeping soundly throughout the night. His week long bout of night terrors is over. (Elijah had a few nights about a week and a half ago […]

As I drove to pick up lunch the other afternoon, my mind began to wonder. “Am I really ready to give up this car? It’s so spacious and roomy!” I didn’t tell you? We are thinking of trading in our family car, the car I drive everyday. As the car’s external thermometer showed 94 degrees outside, I sighed. […]

For some crazy reason, my blog is erroring out on the post I did this morning, entitled Monday Blues. As it is still acting funny, I am deleting the post. Nothing much is missing, merely my rantings of a Monday morning.
Update: … and Voila! It’s working again! I ain’t retyping my complainings. The baby went […]
BBQ Plate Sale
Alright, let me preface by saying: I feel the utmost discomfort at selling! I hate trying to “sell” people. It just doesn’t feel right for me. I’ve thought trying my hand in realty or, selling P@mpered Chef or a similar business but I don’t want to pressure people. And not that I necessarily would, but […]

Wow! After missing several weeks of this, I am hoping to be back on track. So with the most detail, I’ve ever given, my Fridge Friday:
The top shelf houses are bread. You probably won’t notice but yes we have two loaves that are the exact same kind: 7 grain wheat. Who knows how old each […]

As a Peep lover, I thought this was hilarious. From my dear friend, Eve.
Thursday Thirteen #4
You know you are a Mama when:
You are looking for socks to go for a run, you pick up two socks, sized 24 months and think nothing of it, until you sit down to put them on.
You sneak sips of the whole milk. Oh, this is good stuff! But it’s too heavy for my belly […]
Ewwww! and then some…
I woke up this morning at 3:15. I shook myself awake and thus Fran… I dreamt that I was covered in roaches! Ewww, it was so disgusting! What does that mean?
Then I was antsy, so I couldn’t go back to sleep. Sweet Fran humored me and we stayed up talking. I think she was trying […]
