  • Bread and Butter

    OK, after a few other posts, I’m back to the bread and butter of this blog: pics of my kiddo. There is a neat place in town that is basically a big indoor playground. It has a bounce house, big sandbox, lots of riding toys, dress-up clothes, a play structure and more. You have to […]

  • Sub Surprise

    My current part-time job is as a substitute teacher. The bad parts about this job are that sometimes I get really early morning calls (yes, 5:30 am is when they start), sometimes I don’t know where I’m going until I need to be out the door, often kids are rude, rowdy or worse, teachers leave […]

  • So, it’s a…..

    Last night as soon as we got home we drove up to meet both of our families at the Macaroni Grill for a wonderful celebration dinner. After one accidental pronoun slip up on my part (grrrrr), we decided not to wait for a big reveal (for fear that I could not hold the secret for […]

  • Pregnant Musings Vol. 2

    Well, today is the big day! Actually, today is probably the 3rd most exciting day in the 10 months of pregnancy. Yes, I said 10 months. It’s 40 weeks, so I like to say 10 months. First most exciting is the LAST day of the pregnancy, but the first day you find out ABOUT the […]

  • How great…indeed.

    I totally had a “moment” at church today. For those of you who know me well, you know that it extremely normal and common for me to get choked up or full-on cry during worship. Something about corporate worship, or singing praise songs with a bunch of other people if you aren’t as familiar with […]

  • Suggestions?

    OK, all you readers, regular or occasional lookie-loos, I need your help. Pretty soon we will start really diving in to our third bedroom to transform it into an actual bedroom for the coming kiddo. We’ve done zero decorating in this room, but loved having a separate room for the computer in our little house. […]

  • What’s in a name?

    This video is not that exciting, but I was attempting to interview Carson from the bathroom floor, because he was just talking up a storm as I was fixing my hair. Of course, as soon as the camera turns on, he starts acting differently, but this is kind of amusing. Especially when I asked him […]

  • My Favorites Vol. 3

    Plain old sugar cookies. Betty Crocker recipe. Powdered sugar frosting. Cooked just right…not at all brown or crispy. Sprinkles optional. Oh. My. Gosh. I love them. Even when I made them at 10:30 at night because I forgot I signed up to bring cookies to Bible study the next morning. Heck yeah, there is one […]

  • Make yourself at home.

    This is one of Carson’s favorite places to sit/rest/read/watch TV. It fits him pretty well! He’s found himself there a bit more this weekend, as I’ve been sick. “Sick” is used loosely, as our dear friends in California have been dealing with a sickness that really puts my miseries into perspective. If you can’t tell […]
