lots of packing…

So I am writing this post because I am currently overwhelmed and this seemed like a good distraction. I am overwhelmed because tomorrow we are leaving for Seattle for a week to spend time with my family. I couldn’t be more stoked about this but getting to tomorrow is daunting. Normally I am a pro [...]

my fridays…

Well this is probably the least typical Friday I could post about, but I thought I’d follow through on chronicling the whole week.
Bella slept in this morning which means we slept in. Clint had the day off which is the first holiday he’s had off in a while. So Bella woke us up via baby [...]

diapering like a tree-hugger…

So my friend Jen asked about our diapering system in the my thursdays post and to save the worlds longest comment I decided just to post about it.
I use a modified version of the gDiapers system. Their system involves the otter pant (little g pants), a breathable nylon snap in liner and a flushable insert. [...]

the 15 month old isabella…

Bella turned 15 months on the 2nd. She is definitely a toddler now. She is constantly up and about. Very independant and even has three teeth. Her 15 month check up isn’t till next week so I don’t know her current stats. But here are some pictures of Bella from the last month or so…

my wednesdays…

Well this Wednesday was anything but typical. Bella slept in, I had a long meeting this morning and left Bella with Grandma. I came home to a vomiting child which pretty much dominated the rest of my day. Oh the joys of parenting. My day did end well with a trip to a student ministries [...]

my tuesdays…

If I had to label my typical Monday it would be errnads day. My Tuesdays would be labled my cleaning days. My Tuesdays are typically not all that exciting. Bella spends the majority of her day playing by herself in her own little world. I don’t drive anywhere on Tuesdays more out of a need [...]

my mondays…

Most of the people that read this blog are from out of God’s sacred land of Texas. (I don’t actually believe that Texas holds any special favor with God.) Most of the readers have not seen me in the day-to-day life that I lead as a wife, mom, and nerd. So I will attempt a [...]
