"...when he appears, we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is." 1 John 3:2
Just a few months ago, I had the amazing privilege of hearing my son Justice share with me his salvation experience – what a joy! On March 21st, my husband Joe got to share this same joy as he led our daughter Rayah in her own acceptance of Jesus as her Savior! If you don’t follow his blog, I wanted to give you the opportunity to read the story – Part 1 and Part 2. As we did with Justice, {Read More}
Happy 1st Birthday Eden!! I know this post is EXTREMELY late, as Eden turned 1 year old on February 12th, but better late than never! I started back at work this month, so life has been a little busier, to say the least, and blogging has sort of fallen to the bottom of the list these days. However, we had a lot of fun celebrating our little guy and he is such a delight (as is the meaning of his {Read More}
Eden refused to give me one single smile in his guitar case photo shoot this month. He’s definitely outgrowing this little growth measurement chart & is getting tired of it – just two more months, Buddy! No more teeth this month, but that sure hasn’t stopped him from eating a lot more variety of solid foods. I’ve started letting him eat things like bread, pancakes, french fries, Kraft Dinner (we officially have another KD-lover in the family), and many of {Read More}
Tomorrow is December 1st and our family’s Christmas celebrations will officially begin! As a young family, we are still figuring out what traditions we want to have, so it is quite basic for the time being. I started by making the same Christmas cookies I made last year – Coffee Fingers, Almond Tea Cookies and Gramma Cookies. I tried a new recipe for the Gramma Cookies this year, which I liked better & I made a yummy almond flavored icing {Read More}

Man, this kid is CUTE!! His smiles melt my heart like nothing else! Anywho, here we are at 9 months!! It’s been quite an adventuresome month, so let’s get started… WE HAVE TEETH!!! Woohoo!!! His two bottom teeth both finally emerged just shortly after he turned 8 months old – very exciting! He mastered the conventional crawl this month and has been cruising around like he owns the place. Along with learning how to pull himself to standing last month, {Read More}

It’s November 1st and that means it’s only one month until we begin celebrating Advent! Last Christmas, I participated in a fabulous Advent experience with my kids called Truth in the Tinsel by OhAmanda, which is a 24-day eBook that counts you and your kids down to Christmas Day with an interactive telling of the Christmas story through crafts and scriptures and ideas for talking with your kids about Jesus’ birth. As I said in my original review of this {Read More}
Didn’t I just write a post about Eden turning 7 months??? Well, here’s the quick run down… No teeth. Not one. Nope. Nada. Nothing. Okay – there are some swollen bumps in his gums, but that’s it. He figured out how to pull himself to standing and now he’s a standing maniac! In the crib, at the couch, on my leg, by the bath tub, in the drawers – everywhere. Fun times! And he looks so entirely proud of himself {Read More}
Eden turned 7 months old last week and it’s been a busy month! Sadly, there is still no news on the teeth front – he is still all gums, with no sign of any teeth emerging any time soon. Thankfully though, it seems like his teething pain hasn’t been as bad lately. Solid foods are going great and Eden is now enjoying 3 solid meals a day, eating at the same time as the rest of the family, which is {Read More}
