My long break is (hopefully) over!

It's been over a month since the last time I posted here.  I've missed it but there has been a lot going on and priorities to keep straight during my unexpected break from blogging.

We've had vacations and trips, extended stay guests, summertime activities and normal life to keep up with.  On top of those things I'm also experiencing morning sickness - yes, we are expecting our third baby! As you can image I've been tired and just over all not feeling up to much.  These last few weeks have been a bit better and I'm pretty sure I'm ready to get (slowly) back into blogging again.


I've been thinking and praying about what to do with this little corner of the web. Should I keep trying to stay around or just say good bye for good and stop being so inconsistent in my posts? Should I change the vision and maybe just post on 1 subject all the time (that could be easier on my maxed out brain!:))?  I'm still not completely sure but, for now I'm hoping to make some changes, nothing too big yet. One thing is that you'll only see me around once maybe twice a week at this point.  I'm hoping to sit down and pre-shedule most posts and have them written up days in advance to help lower any stress last minute posts can cause me. :)


As my life changes you'll see changes to my posting, which I know is already expected. We'll see if having 3 babies, 3 and under will have me stopping or continuing on. :)

Thanks for sticking around and always reading the things I get up on my little corner here.

Blessings,

Redeeming Childbirth :: A Book Review



Today I want to share with you to my *new* favorite pregnancy/childbirth book : Redeeming Childbirth by Angie Tolpin.

This book has become my favorite pregnancy book because of the huge amount of encouragement through out it's pages.  I have read a ton of pregnancy/childbirth books (here are some of my favorites) and for the most part they are alike and tell you how big your baby is now and what happens during pregnancy, labor and birth, etc.  This book though encourages you to grow in your relationship with the Lord while going through the life changing experience of pregnancy/childbirth.

Pregnancy and birth is just something you don't ever forget, it is imprinted on your heart.  I remember the overflowing joy of finding out a new blessing was coming, feeling the first hiccup or kick, hearing the baby's heart beat for the very first time, growing close to the day you are to deliver and meeting your precious baby for the very first time.  Pregnancy is a precious growing time for both yourself and your baby.

A lot of people (I know I have at times) focus on the negatives of pregnancy: morning sickness, sleepless nights, backaches, outgrowing clothes, tiredness, overwhelmed with household tasks, etc. Though these are all extremely true (more so for others), this book encourages you to draw closer to the Lord during these trying times and rest in His presence.

I wish there had been such a book when I was expecting our first baby. I would have benefited so much for the encouragement within it. This book is written to help redeem your childbirth, help you grow spiritually with the Lord, your family and your growing baby.  I ended up reading this book slowly, I'd read a little and think on it and read a little again.  It is so full of wisdom, I'm sure I'll be picking it back up next time I'm expecting.



I would have no problems recommending Redeeming Childbirth to anyone having a baby!

Be on the look out for an exciting giveaway coming soon!!

You can connect with Angie online on Twitter, Facebook, Pinterest, or subscribe to her email list.

Are You Stessed Momma? | 6 Ways To Become Less Stressed

Buy at Art.com

I know it's been a bit quiet around here lately, I've been pretty busy with my homemaking and caring for my family.  Often I get stressed about the things that need to get done, but I have found ways to put the stress behind.  Motherhood and being a homemaker is often a busy and time consuming occupation.

Dishes pile high 

Laundry baskets overflow

Little tummies empty quickly

Crumbs collect on the floors

Your energy goes away at amazing speeds

Add in many other things and then it starts all over again tomorrow

Things and seasons change.  You just now get used to winter and have figured out how to entertain your two little ones, then spring comes and you now need to figure out how to fit in letting them play outside, But, you can't just let them out alone.  It's busy and it's easy to fall head first into the stress of it.

Stress is bad for everyone but for a mother it's easy for your stress to be let out in your children or husband.  Here are several ways I let go and clear my head of the stress.

Pray - give your worries and cares to Jesus.  You might be washing the dishes or changing a diaper but a quick prayer to the Father will help ease some of that stress in your mind

Read Scriptures - There are an amazing amount of scriptures to encourage a worn/weary heart in the bible and just getting a few into your day can make a huge difference. Post sticky notes around your house if you are not able to get to personal devotions everyday to help encourage yourself.  Just a small reminder that the Lord is there can make a stressful situation much less stressful.

Read a book - even if it's reading a book about bears or cars to your boys.  I find reading any type of book relaxing.  Sometimes it's just a quick few paragraphs in one of the many books I'm in the middle of reading or a children's book out loud.  I often like to try to read from an encouraging book or something that will lift me up. 

Take a walk -put your babies in a stroller and go out for a short walk.  It's great exercise and I always find it relaxing and rejuvenating. :)

Have your babies help you do housework - one of the easiest ways for me to get something done and watch my babies at the same time is to have them help me do something.  I can fold laundry on the bed while they clean something in the same room, for me that's normally picking up toys. My two year old can fold small towels and put his own clothes in his drawer.  Give your little ones wash cloths and tackle the dirty bathroom together.  Let the littles work on the tub while you clean the toilet, floor and sink.  Be sure to use safe and non-toxic cleaners, especially when allowing children to help you as the others can be very harmful to their more sensitive bodies.

Lower your expectations - Children grow at alarmingly fast speeds and you want them to remember having a blast!  Their memories shouldn't be of momma always stressed about having the perfect house.  It's okay if the dinner dishes don't get done every single night, the laundry isn't folded right away, the bathroom needed to be cleaned a few days ago or dinner is simple.  Have fun with them, spend time outside playing in the dirt, sit and read what feels like 100 books to them one afternoon, go to the park and just waste the afternoon, let them sit in the tub extra long because they love playing in there, just have fun! Your babies will grow and you'll have all the time in the world to have the spotless house you didn't have then they were little! :)


I often fail at doing these things but when I stop and realize the stress I have or I've placed on my family I strive to do one, several or all of these things.

When the stress builds in your home what do you do?  Would you add something to this list?

His Strength Keeps Me Going




I want to be real here, I'm just as human as the rest of us.  I have shortcomings, fears and weaknesses.  I have a hard time expressing myself in person but writing out my thoughts is much easier for me.  That's why I love to write, but fear can sometimes get the best of me even in writing.  But, I am real.


I'm just a learning wife and momma to 2 boys.  I don't have much skill or experience in being wife and momma but I love my man and my boys with everything in me, I try my best to care for them!


Everyday I spend hours caring and cleaning.  
My laundry is always getting behind and my dishes end up getting piled up too often.  


Dinner isn't always on time and sometimes it's just a fast meal made. : )

I'm always working on refining my schedule to make it more helpful for our family as things change so much with growing children.  First a newborn needs to be held and nursed often then they begin to roll, then crawl and then walk.


Some days I don't even touch my computer until nap time comes around and even sometimes that only lasts 15 minutes.


I'm just like you, in the early stages of Motherhood with little ones all around me. Barely keeping up with housekeeping but loving it.

You know how I make it through everyday?  The Lord grants me grace and strength when I'm weak and tired.  His loving arms carry me through this journey and looking to Him keeps my heart uplifted!

I want you to know that I am real.


P.S. - Sorry for how quiet it has been around here lately.  I had all sorts of plans but then I was struggling with managing my time well and then sickness hit our little family.  We seem to be at the end of it and hopefully life will resume it's normal self again (if there's such a thing as normal...).

Comfort from the Scriptures


Last night I was up for a few hours with my little guy teething. I was discouraged and tired - honestly I didn't want to do it, I wanted to go back to sleep until morning. :) For awhile I didn't do anything except rock him and give him some teething homeopathic remedy to help relieve his pain. I then got my phone out and started reading the Bible on it. First I read Proverbs 31, then Philippians, & then the first 4 chapters of Ephesians. No reason for the order just sort of did it. He was resting well by the forth chapter of Ephesians so we both went back in bed. :)

During the time I spent reading several different verses stood out to me and comforted me as I rocked my baby. He wasn't crying though, just awake. He's never cried much with teething.

I found comfort during my discouragement and tiredness in the middle of the night from these scriptures:

She watches over the ways of her household, And does not eat the bread of idleness.
Proverbs 31:27

Rejoice in the Lord always. Again I will say, rejoice! Let your gentleness be known to all men. The Lord is at hand. Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God;
Philippians 4:4-6

I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.
Philippians 4:13

But God, who is rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us, even when we were dead in trespasses, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved), and raised us up together, and made us sit together in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, that in the ages to come He might show the exceeding riches of His grace in His kindness toward us in Christ Jesus.
Ephesians 2:4-7

For this reason I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, from whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named, that He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with might through His Spirit in the inner man, that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; that you, being rooted and grounded in love, may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the width and length and depth and height -- to know the love of Christ which passes knowledge; that you may be filled with all the fullness of God. Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us, to Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen.
Ephesians 3:14-21

I beseech you to walk worthy of the calling with which you were called, with all lowliness and gentleness, with longsuffering, bearing with one another in love, endeavoring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.
Ephesians 4:1-3

Among many others. :)

What scriptures encourage you when your discouraged and tired?

Homemade Baby Food :: Sweet Potatoes

Homemade Baby Food

Sweet Potatoes

What you'll need:

  • a couple sweet potatoes, or yams
  • some water
  • food processor or blender
  • jars or ice cube trays
Wash thoroughly and bake sweet potatoes or yams at 350-375 degrees for 1 & 1/2 - 2 + hours (depends on how many, I did 3 large sweet potatoes for about 2 hours).

Allow sweet potatoes to cool and then peel the skins off.

Place sweet potatoes in a food processor or blender and add a little water. Blend well until desired consistency. Add water to make it thinner if needed.


Place in baby food jars and refrigerate for up to a couple days or freeze in ice cube trays then transfer to ziplocks. Frozen it should last about a month. They defrost quickly, within about 2 hours. Each ice cube is approximately 1 1/2 tablespoons.

You can easily mix this with applesauce or other baby food. : )

I hope you enjoy making this for your baby.
Feel free to leave comments with suggestions or ideas. :)

BabyLegs Review & Giveaway! Ends 5/14

I want to share with you my new favorite brand for baby socks & legwarmers - BabyLegs! Some of the reasons these have become my favorite are:
  • Grips on the bottom of the sock! Perfect for your precious babies learning to stand and walk!
  • They have some made from Organic Cotton!
  • Adorable baby boy and girl patterns.
  • Leg Warmers are perfect for those in-between times when its too hot or cold.
  • Legwarmers would look absolutely adorable under a little girls denim dress/jumper/skirt!
  • Large clearance section on their website.
  • Great customer service and fast shipping!
  • A whole newborn section!
  • The socks actually stay on active baby feet - none of my other socks do!
BabyLegs sent me 4 pairs of socks and 2 legwarmers to try - honestly I don't think all four pairs of socks have been clean at the same time! They are always my first choice when getting my baby dressed and have almost been a reason to wash laundry sooner! :) My baby is a.l.w.a.y.s hot (even when its cold) so I haven't really put the legwarmers on him much. But they were great the few times I did. They would make great layers for babies that need more warmth, making it easy to still change and dress quickly!

About BabyLegs - Their Story:
In April of 2005, a young mom was confronted with a diaper rash that just wouldn't quit. The rash needed some fresh air to heal, but she was also concerned about keeping her daughter warm. In a moment of inspiration, she snipped the feet off of a pair of socks and fitted her daughter from hip to ankle with a cool set of leg warmers. These leg warmers not only kept her daughter warm, but also protected her from the elements, made diaper changing and potty training easier, and protected her soft knees while crawling. With some fun designs and some grassroots marketing support, the functional and fashionable leg warmers that began as a solution to keep little legs warm quickly became much more.

You can purchase BabyLegs products online here! Cute socks, tights & legwarmers ranging from $12-$10 sizes 0-12 months - 4T!
My Baby's toes staying cozy in his BabyLegs socks!

My Favorite Baby Carrier



I love my ERGO Baby Carrier! No backaches and neck pains with this carrier! I've used these carriers for many years - with my baby and my younger siblings. I've tried several other carriers & wraps but none compare to the ERGO Baby Carrier. The support it gives both you and your baby is incredible. If your baby is under 4 months you can get an insert to be able to fit your tiny little one in more comfortably and safely.

Lately I've been using my ERGO Baby Carrier more often as my baby (8 months) has a cold and wants to be held more. :-) I can still get all my daily tasks done and hold my baby at the same time. Laundry, dishes, vacuuming, sweeping, and so many other things can be done easily with your precious little one in the ERGO Baby Carrier. You can have your baby on your back, front or hip in this carriers.





***Don't forget! Today is the last day to enter my Suuthe Lip Balm & Skin Repair Giveaway***

**I'm not being compensated in anyway for this post. I have purchased my own Ergo Baby Carrier and this post is expressing my own opinions only. Links are affiliate.
