Waiting game

February 28, 2009

So, Andrew and I are still waiting.  We are doing our best to trust the Lord during this confusing and hard time.  We know we have a Father we can rely on, but it is still scary.  The biggest thing we could use prayer on at this time is for the health insurance to work [...]

Willing to Receive

Ok fellow mommies (well, really all ladies!).  How many of you LOVE helping others?  How many of you LOVE giving encouragement and support to your fellow girlfriends?  I love doing this.  I love being there for my girlfriends!  I want them to ask me for help if they need it and I want them to [...]

Confessions

February 20, 2009

Ok, so some days I feel like a horrible mother.  I am sure all mom’s feel this way at times.  This book I read refers to it as “mommy guilt.”  I suffer from this mommy guilt AT LEAST once a day, probably more.  I get frustrated, tired out, annoyed, and sometimes VERY moody.  I am [...]

Sleepless

February 13, 2009

Well, Katie has her first cold, or something. . .She hasn’t slept well the past 3 nights, especially last night.  Last night, she woke up at 1:00, was able to be settled for 30 min.  Then I settled her and she slept another 45 min.  Well, after that from 2:15 until about 3:30, she wouldn’t calm [...]

Wonderful Weekend

February 9, 2009

This weekend was great.  We didn’t do things much differant than pervious weekends, but it felt so much greater than other ones!  We had friends over for lunch yesterday and that was super fun   They have a baby only 3 weeks younger than Katie, though gestationally, their baby is older, ya confusing I [...]

New Favorite Verse!

February 5, 2009

Today, while reading Psalm 47, I noticed a cross reference to verse 4 that was in the New Testement.  I don’t know why, but I always think it is cool when the old testement and new testement so clearly line up!  I read it and really loved the truth in it!  God’s love is so [...]

Great Read

February 4, 2009

For those of you who are new parents, I recommend this book.  i am over halfway through it and I feel like I could have wrote the thing.  It is so encouraging to read that someone else goes through the same emotions, has the same thoughts and fights the same fights!  The book is called [...]

YUMMY!

February 2, 2009

Today, Katie had sweet potatoes.  It was HILARIOUS!  She had orange smeared ALL the way up her face AND in her nose.  She like them though, it was funny.  Even after she got full, she would still take more food and make the “mmm i am happy, this is good” baby sound.  It was cute.  [...]
