It’s been a month of exciting giveaways! I have one last book- Words to Dream On: Bedtime Bible Stories and Prayers, by Diane Stortz. What a beautiful little book! This one arrived for my family just in the middle of our battle with this year’s flu. They were so excited to look through the pages and read through the stories…

This Week’s Sewing Project
We realized during our recent flu outbreak we were short some rice socks. All the girls and I worked together to restock our supply and make some for gifts! This is an old, old, old tutorial for making a simple rice sock.
Owen
Owen at 10 months… Decided in about a week and a half he could sit on his own, pull himself anywhere, then started crawling. Pulls himself up on the side of his bed. Plays in the walker but “carries” it while he’s walking (he doesn’t technically need it anymore but he hasn’t figured this out yet :D). He says “uh-oh”…

I guess our most recent “big” news is that Jonathan got his pins taken out last week. I could not imagine having pins taken out of a bone. I don’t want to even think about how that must feel. I gave him Motrin about an hour before his appointment. He took his stuffed animal and we left for our local…

We’ve had the flu. I’ve come to appreciate (is that the way I really want to word what I’m thinking?), germs. When you have a larger than average family, by the time illness circulates through everyone, it’s likely to have mutated and could go all the way through again. Isn’t that fun? I think most my friends realize we are…
Joshua’s Birthday
Another birthday passes for my sweet son. He is happy and settled into a home, and a growing family of his own. That part has been a little bitter-sweet for me. While I’m happy to see him happy, and I love that he is doing well, I’m also missing him in my home. I didn’t get to make him his…
Review and Giveaway: Duck Commander Devotions for Kids
Are there Duck Commander fans in your family? I’ll admit, we have a few around here! We love watching the Robertson family and their adventures. We appreciate the values they bring to our world. This week, we’ve been reading through the Duck Commander Devotions for Kids. This book is well written. I’ve enjoyed working through the devotions with my children…
Current Projects
Remember the “use what you have” theme we started this year? We have an abundance of yarn we’ve been trying to use for various projects. The first was a scarf for me. I’ve needed one for years but just never wanted to spend the money to buy one so I got to work and ended up with this: I’m so…

Kylie’s Birthday
This is the first year we’ve celebrated Kylie’s birthday as our new daughter! I made her a sour cream chocolate cake. We opened gifts and enjoyed the evening before they left for church. Jackson had the best time watching her open all the little things in her box. I was excited to find her the WillowCreek figurine of the pregnant…
