In August I realized I was exhausted. Exhausted, overwhelmed, and feeling like I could not continue on with life as it was going. Something had to change. Something had to go. Actually, for awhile, a lot of things had to go so that I could find my feet again and be able to breath. I […]
From the Mouths of Babes :: The Power of...
Have you ever been stunned by a Bible verse before? Just stopped in the middle of your reading, in awe of what is written in front of you, thinking, “How can that be? That’s too incredible!” And then, as the reality of it sinks in and you know it is true, you think, “Wow. God […]
A Good Reminder
My sister, Chelsea, told me I should check out Sunday’s For Better or For Worse comic strip. So I did. It’s a good one.
Ikea’s Coming!
On July 27th, Ikea is opening here in Denver. I have always wondered why there wasn’t one here, but now there will be! And in plenty of time for Baby #2. (and our new house…) Here are some things I would love, just for fun: And that’s not even including the real furniture or decor, […]
This Old House
I get overwhelmed easily. There. I said it. It doesn’t take very much for me to feel like the world is too loud, there are too many demands in a day, and that sometimes I just want to run away from it all. Given that natural tendency, it is no surprise to me that I […]
The Highly Anticipated Ultrasound
The Results? One Baby. Same Due Date. “Happy Uterus” (to quote my good friend Jenny). It’s strange. I was so stressed out about the possibility of having two babies, but now that I know there’s only one I feel like someone is missing. Someone who never existed in the first place. At the same time, […]
Twins
Got your attention? Yeah, that word got mine too at my midwife appointment yesterday. Apparently I am measuring big – like a month too big. That’s affirming in a sense because I have felt so much bigger than I expected to be at 12 weeks, but holy shamoly! Twins! It could be that somehow I […]
My Mom
I am horrible at remembering to get presents and cards for people on special occasions. I apologize to everyone for the missed anniversary cards, birthday cards and any other card that may have been hoped for. Especially to family. Today, I apologize to my mom because I didn’t get anything in the mail this week. […]
In the Secret Place
So, I hope you’ve figured out by now why I haven’t blogged very much lately. I just have not had the energy! Plus, how could I blog about anything without you knowing that I’m pregnant. It has just affected my life too much to be able to write here and ignore it! A few of you […]
Some Good News
Hi Everyone! So, I’ve been thinking about good news this weekend. About how welcome the coverage of the Royal Wedding was for so many simply because weddings are full of hope, of new beginnings, and of love. I’m a person who tends to be rather cynical, pessimistic about… well, most things. I didn’t think I […]
