Well if you saw yesterday's post you may know why I'm a little overwhelmed! We received so many beautiful gifts at a church Shower this past Sunday! I swear this little angel got over 50 outfits! Not including socks, hairbows, shoes, etc! The shower was a blessing. Oh.. You want to see pictures? ok....{if you don't care, scroll down. I still need your advice} ____________________________________

iBelieve that pain brings forth beauty. iBelieve that pain should be respected. Often times in our lives we try our best to eliminate pain. Whether it be physical or emotional pain, we do all we can to alleviate ourselves. We do not enjoy pain; of course, we aren't meant to enjoy pain. I believe that seasons of pain produce beauty. Think of winter. It's harsh, cold, and bitter. We sometimes

The story of a pregnant woman's night. At the end of the day, when all is said and done and a pregnant lady finally gets to rest her head, she finds herself in the middle of a battle field. Bedtime. Or at least that's the goal. I first fight the urge to lift my larger than life maternity pillow into the bed in hopes of being able to snuggle with husband. I finally get myself up on the edge of

Madison's Papaw came over this weekend with his tiller and did a little handy work! I laid on the couch propped up on my boppy maternity pillow with the door opened and watched the men work. Husband learned how to use the tiller and did a few rows, too! Pops says we have very good soil, and it should be a good little garden. I'm very excited about growing our own baby food! Ever since I wrote

The week leading up to Noah’s birth was L-O-N-G.  I was induced with Elijah at 39 weeks so I felt completely overdue with Noah.  Even though my c-section was scheduled for the day before my due date, I was hopeful until the very last moment I might go into labor on my own and try a VBAC.I was a little disappointed the morning of my c-section that I never went into labor, but on the way to the

For years, 11 years to be exact, my church family has been an extension of my family. I've wept on their shoulders, confessed my sins, shouted praises, and prayed alongside them. I've witnessed miracles and heartbreak. I've seen ministers come and go. I don't see how people go through tough times without a church family. In times of need, fellow church members have come out of the wood-works to

So… This thing called baby wearing. It sounds so much more complex than what it truly is.  I have two slings already that I got at discounted prices. Can you believe how much they are charging for those things? Sheesh… I got a new one from the online yardsale, and another for shipping only through a promotional email. I’m excited about babywearing! I think it will truly eliminate that awkward

A few notes about BirthIn the upcoming month I have posts scheduled where 5 lovely stories of life will be shared. Each is unique and special. Each mother is to be appreciated for her journey and accomplishment of child birth. Though these stories are not graphic, they do depict actual stories of labor and delivery. You may see the word “vagina.” Don’t freak. You may also read about references to

I've had this thing pinned since the beginning of time, and am glad it's complete. Now I can move it to my "Completed Projects" board, which brings me great joy! Is it perfect? Hah. No. Does it work?

Yupp. I have moles. They are so cute, you should see them. I'm covered in freckly dark spots. They've always been the bane of my existence. I've always hated them. They always get bumped & hurted (already speaking mommy language). The ones on my hips cried out in pain when the "low rise" thing was in style in junior high. Or is that still in style? Hmph, my body will never be low rise worthy

I'm lazy. Spiritually lazy. Not in a "I don't want to work" kind of way, it's worse than that. I'll work. I'll cook. I'll serve. The hard part is in my personal life. I find all kinds of excuses to not do my quiet time. Thank the Lord that I have a husband who encourages me to. I don't pray enough. Like really pray. I will pray for my day, his day, her day... Her grandma... Sick child...

I hope Madison is the spitting image of her father. Thanks for your input last week. I most definitely will be making my own baby food. I will be putting the baby bullet on my registry along with cute little containers!

Drum Roll Please........... I'm FINISHED! This project didn't take long because it was hard. It didn't take long because it wasn't as fun as lazer tag in a dark room with your husband. It didn't take long because I wasn't motivated. It took forever because I'm pregnant. And it's winter.Zero daylight. By the time I get home from work (yes, I work full time)... It's dark outside, and I can't

We paid $30 for this gem:It is now primed and awaiting a new coat of beautiful yellow paint.Now the drawers offer up a slight issue for me. I love how big they are!

This week I've not had too many questions. Mostly just thoughts & fears. Fears about leaving my sweet girl to return to work. I am so blessed by the good Lord above. My mother in law will be our Nanny. I trust her with my child more than I trust myself. She raised 3 beautiful children who have learned a great sense of "family" from her. I'm not worried about the type of care she will

Remember our sweet pup Laila? Remember that she wasn’t very sweet at all and that we ended up having to get rid of her when we moved into our new home? One of the (many reasons) why is because she was a destroyer and a Hudini. She broke out of her crate once and demolished our bedroom. She chewed shoes. She chewed clothes. She ate my bible. She ate jewelry. She even ate my $300 coach glasses. (

Hubs and I are in love with our new home. It's simple, it's perfect, it's ours. We have decorated it to our liking, but are still enjoying our pretty perfect walls and haven't done much hanging yet. We are hesitant to put holes in our walls and make major changes because everything is BRAND NEW! We hung a few things, but not much. Our focus has certainly shifted from the HOUSE to the NURSERY!

Have you noticed the poll over there ------> ????????????????????????????????????? Well we love Madison as our little nugget's  (nuh-gette: female nugget) name. In fact, husband told me before he even proposed that his little girl was going to be  named Madison. I kind of married into this name, but I love it. Madison is perfect.  Our middle name options, have expanded slightly.

This week’s question is about "The Big E.” That’s right, the epidural. That big needle that allows you to feel no pain. I’m against having an epidural for personal reasons. I plan on having a natural hospital birth with as little medication as possible. Being completely unmedicated would be my goal, but I do realize that my baby’s safety is most important and emergencies do happen.

You see when you are  preggers it's almost a MUST to put forth an effort while planning your outfit. You naturally just feel kinda yucky. You are gaining weight and your body changes daily. It's important to dress yourself, fix your hair,  and do your make up so that you don't fall into  that pit of YUCK that is trying to take over! Hubs and I took a Babymoon/Anniversary (full

So one of our new year's resolutions last year was to go on an "adventure" once a month. We aimed to do something new each month of this year... whether it be a new restaurant, a new recipe, or a new city to discover, we had to do something once a month. Some adventures were way more exciting and some were simply squeezed into our busy schedule.  This month (November) was our anniversary month.

You all can go ahead and laugh at me for this post, but this is real, honest, and sincere. I'm scared of bath time. I don't know anything about bathing a baby. I don't know where to start.

For a girl we like MadisonFor a boy we likeConnor What middle names do you think would go with these?We like Madison Bell(e?)&&&Connor Isaacbut aren't for sure on either.... we could throw it all out the window and start over. What are your suggestions? We'd love to incorporate my maiden

Apparently I'm not kosher enough to get my weekend posts to you on Monday. Probably because I'm mourning  how short the weekend actually is. Anyways, let's get on with it... Our friday nights have been filled with lots of high school football. My sisters man is a pretty beastly football player and is hoping to play in college. Well, since (i think he's a pretty cool kid and) my sister plans on

As I begin to wonder what gender our sweet nugget is going to be I have begun to dive into thoughts about the sweet nursery. I have a feeling that our nugget is a boy, and so do many other people. Of course I could be way totally wrong, but it’s just how I feel; I’m going with it! I’ve been thinking about themes and what not for the nursery. Hubs has requested a baseball room if it’s a boy. I

I'm very glad it's friday. I look forward to sleeping in tomorrow. I had a great talk with God on the way in to work today. I received a sweet gift this morning when I came into work. A journal from my boss that says "Cheerfulness is the atmosphere in which all things thrive" Johann Paul Richter I have a specific verse on my mind today: "Draw near to God, and He will draw near to you" James 4:8.

Enjoy :) I have been curious lately about why we decorate Christmas trees in our home during the holidays. If you think about it… it is pretty random. The history of the Christmas tree goes all the way back to ancient Egyptians. They believed

Understand what this is all about {here}.  August We went and bought pregnancy tests. Yupp. That was something that neither of us had ever done before. It was quite a new experience for sure.

Let me tell you a little story. I once never wanted children. They annoyed me. They took too much time. I didn't like all the questions. Then I met my husband. I imagined myself with him forever. I imagined growing old with him. I imagined having children with him. That's what love does to you. It changes you. For the better. Love opens your eyes. Love reveals happiness. Love builds

This weekend was wonderfully amazing. The Lord was so good to me and blessed me so much through my sweet ACTeen girls! They soaked up the word and the importance of digging into the scripture daily. This was good for them, but it was such a blessing to me. I learned so much through them. The weekend’s study was entitled “Artios,” meaning set apart and complete. Paul describes the scripture in

So, my God is good. Husband and I have been immensely blessed over the past few weeks. We came home from our trip to Florida to see the Red Sox play, and as we pulled into town we had plenty of energy {for some odd reason}. We drove around and kinda looked at a few houses we saw online and were scoping out homes that met our {moderate} standards. We had pretty much come to the conclusion that we’

note: this is a really long post with plenty info & picturesArts and Craft festivals.SpringFlings.Bazaars.Extravaganzas. Call it whatever you want, but it's one intimidating event. Especially for the vendors. So much forethought, work, and time to put forth for a few days, or maybe even hours.
