Time has flown by and though I would like to go back and chronicle every event that happened this summer- I don’t think that is going to happen.  So I’ll just tell you where we are at this point in time.  Amai went to her first day of Kindergarten this morning (more on that later,) [...]

It’s been forever.  Sorry about that.  Life is so busy for me in the summer.  I’m ready for the routine that school brings.  Amai will be in Kindergarten in 2 1/2 weeks, Ashe will start Mother’s Day Out in 3 1/2 weeks.  All I can say is praise God.  While it’s a little bittersweet- I’m [...]

Today I found myself at “Fiesta.”   I was trying to find one last ingredient for my dinner co-op meals and this was my last attempt.  It was interesting!  I don’t know that I’ve ever felt so white in my life. Chris is getting the texture on the walls in the kitchen done this weekend.  [...]

Just had to post a couple of new pics I took yesterday.  The kids are growing up so fast.  Wow!  Sometimes I can’t even believe I am a mom!  Then I see a picture like that first one and I think, “Well, that’s just amazing!”  God has blessed us abundantly.  I’m so extremely thankful.  And [...]

Here are some recent pics of the kids. And now for the cool story. I have a bible that has seen me through the lowest of lows and the highest of highs in life.  (Well technically it’s the Word of God in the bible that has seen me through, but you know what I mean.  [...]

I realize these are not all that exciting, as we have been somewhat homebound since Bella was born.  Nevertheless I wanted to have these on record and show how Bella is growing. That last pic has got some exposure issues, but I had to grab the camera and shoot fast while she was still puckering.  [...]

Ok, so I forgot a few pics of that first weekend in the hospital.  Here goes: Now I need to go upload more pics off our camera.

Ok, so here’s the rest of Bella’s delivery weekend in pics.  I’m short on words and time this morning. It’s hard to believe this was over a month ago.  Time has really flown by and Bella has turned out to be fairly mellow baby.  People keep asking me if it’s been hard to go from [...]

I had my 36 week appointment last week and things are progressing right along.  I’m 50% effaced and a little over 1 cm dilated, for those of you who care to know the condition of my cervix.  My Dr. again reminded me to take it easy these last few weeks (yeah, right.)  The way I’ve [...]

As you can see, I’ve been getting bigger.  I would put this into our nifty slideshow, but Chris is the only one that knows how to do that around these parts.  I think I was about 32 weeks in this picture, but am not sure.  Remember, the camera adds at least 10 lbs.  And I [...]
