I made Stellan a hat. (Recognize the fabric? He’s worn it before, you could say…) It said 0-6 months. I can barely squish it onto his head. He’s in 3-6 month clothes now. That didn’t take very long. He’ll be 8 weeks old tomorrow. Elliot asked for seconds at supper tonight. She decided seconds need […]
TOS Review: FishFlix.com
When FishFlix.com came up as a review item for 2016, my family was thrilled. I reviewed two titles for them in the 2015 review year: Privileged Species: How the Cosmos is Designed for Human Life and When Calls the Heart, Heart of the Family in October. This time around, I received The Ultimate Gift, starring Drew […]
Ladylike Germs
Elliot, I have decided, is world’s worst sick person. She can’t handle being slowed down. She takes it out on everyone. She’s suffering from a cold/cough – but she’s not the only one suffering. She’s pinched and pulled hair and hit and… My patience is wearing thin. So is that of her siblings – because […]
Oops.
I bought fabric for a dress for Liberty last week. She’s sewed some, so I decided to throw her into the world of paper patterns and see how she does. We finally got it cut out Thursday, and I was frustrated to find over a yard extra fabric when we were finished. Leftovers are lovely, […]
Happy baby and a mean momma
Stellan woke up this morning happy. We all took note because I’m pretty sure it’s never, ever happened before today. He was happy during Sunday school. He slept through church. He hung out this afternoon and cried only a couple times. I’m hoping this is a new normal. Blaine suggested the stevia I put in […]

D. T. N. T.
It’s been a rough few weeks. Time after a baby is born always istrying to find a new normal, but this time has been harder than usual. Ellie’s started wetting the bed. It’s never happened before. Add that to the mountain of laundry. The dryer failed. It tumbled but only blew cold. I juggled washing […]
TOS Review: Zonderkidz
I received a hardcover Faith Builders Biblefrom Zonderkidz, a part of Zondervan, as part of a review for the Old Schoolhouse Magazine’s Review Crew. Sterling, 8, took charge of trying out this review since Legos are definitely his thing and the excitement he had for this when I told him of the possibility was huge. He […]
Sweet Tooth
Stellan was four weeks old yesterday. He’ll be a month old on Saturday. I am always amazed at how fast time goes after baby is born when the time at the end of pregnancy takes years off my life. (He was sleeping on my black shirt covered by a super soft blanket made by a […]
Friday I scrubbed. The walls, the trim, the floors – it was all looking better than it has in ages. The bathroom got a thorough scrubbing. Laundry was nearly caught up. The living room got a mini rearranging. The kitchen received much attention. Turns out, I was merely providing a sparkly surface for the vomit […]
