Meditation Monday

I'm thinking: that I am very blessed to have such loving in-laws who were willing to come stay with me while Jake is on a business trip.
I'm reading: technically I'm not reading anything other than the "One Year Bible". I started the "Gaps Guide" but it's so overwhelming that I put it down and decided to focus on other things before I dive into it.
I'm listening to: Jude crying himself to sleep, a dogs barking outside, Sheryl flipping pages in her book, and any minute now I'm sure I'll hear a snore from Lee who fell asleep on the floor....:)
I'm learning: how to properly sprout beans so that we can get the most nutrients from them.
I'm watching: nothing really. Just the occasional movie here and there. The last movie we watched was You Again. It was a very cute movie.
I'm cooking: nothing! My sweet in-laws treated us to In-N-Out and then NuYos! YUMMY times 2!
I'm buying: the usual stuff
I'm thankful for: the sovereignty of God.
I'm creating: a present for a sweet friend's daughter.
I'm praying: for Jake as he flies to another state tonight and then flies back tomorrow.
I'm planning: to start ironing this week....hahaha That's funny!
I'm looking forward to: having my dear husband home....he's been gone less than 20 hours and I already miss him :(

My Sweet Delia

He's snoring..... =) hehe

Wordless Wednesday

Sorry I didn't get around to posting on Monday...I don't really have an excuse either....=)

Wordless Wednesday (on Thursday) =)

Meditation Monday

I'm thinking: that I should take a nap....so sleepy!
I'm reading: still reading "The Gaps Guide".
I'm listening to: the hum of my computer and the whine of my three year old monster who always wakes up grumpy and babbles from Jude who just woke up as well.
I'm learning: that I can not DO everything. And I mean that in a good way. I think Jake and I are trying to juggle too much right now....trying to save money, diciplining the kids the right way, eating as healthy as we can....etc. All of those things and the many other that I didn't mention are all good things that we can/should/need to do but it is starting to seem like maybe doing ALL of them at once isn't working out so well for us....
I'm watching: nothing. We caught up on Psyche awhile ago and now we are just waiting for the next season to be available online. If you've never watched Psyche....it's a MUST see! =)
I'm cooking: grilled cheese sandwiches and tomato soup....perfect for this drippy dreary spring day.
I'm buying: the staples for our week.....fruit, eggs, milk, yogurt, etc.
I'm wearing: does this really matter? I think I'll stop posting this. =) But before I stop I have to say that I told myself a couple of weeks ago that I was NO longer going to allow myself to wear lounge pants and old shirts anymore...even if I was staying in the house all day like I usually do. Now I actually get dressed and READY for the day. I'm sure my sweet husband appreciates it! I'm thankful for: my wonderful church family!
I'm creating: a present for someone.
I'm praying: for patience....again.
I'm planning: to do something crafty, fun & Eastery everyday this week with the girls...even if the house is a mess and the dishes need to be done and the laundry pile is calling my name...
I'm looking forward to: Jake getting home.

You're Fired!

Meditation Monday...on Tuesday =)

I'm thinking: that getting up at 5:40 am because Jude wanted to eat and then not falling back to sleep has left me utterly exhausted!

I'm reading: The Gaps Guide by Baden Lashkov...more on that later.

I'm listening to: Jude crying himself to sleep :( and the girls playing quietly.

Delia's learning: subtraction! It was just introduced today in her math workbook. She is a math wiz like her Daddy. She's also quite the bookworm and has been reading chapter books for a few months now....she's only 5.5.

I'm watching: a slight breeze blow through the bush outside my window.

I'm cooking: lamb and veggies...I think...

I'm buying: diapers....huh imagine that!

I'm wearing: blue/gray pants with a gray linen long-sleeved shirt and NO socks!

I'm thankful for: my hardworking sweet husband!

I'm creating: a better schedule for our days.

I'm praying: for patience!

I'm planning: to make some Easter decorations this week.

I'm looking forward to: this weekend! My Mom and sister are coming for a DAY of shopping! Jude will be the only kid with us...WAHOO!

Blessings from God

Are you ready? I'm back! Sure I haven't actually been gone...but I've been busy and my plan is to post on my little blog from here on out...at least once a week...but most likely 2 or 3 times. Sure that sounds a bit vague....but I do have a life...a busy life that I like to call...
Family...
Sweet Husband...
Darling Daughters...
Cuddly Son...
Tidy Home...
Yummy Food...
or just simply...Blessings From God

So my first post was supposed to be yesterday but the day got away from me so I will be posting it today. A long time ago I would write Meditation Monday every Monday. I will be doing that again. This will hopefully insure that I post at least once a week. I will also be doing Wordless Wednesday. So that will hopefully insure twice a week. And hopefully I'll be able to write another day so that I can catch you all up on our little life.

For now a picture to share of my sweet children...and stay tuned for more! =) photo by Tiana Hollomon
