Thanksgiving 2008Posted by beth on November 28, 2008
We had a nice little Thanksgiving yesterday. Matt and I prepared our meal together and had lots of fun playing with Lily in between preparation. It really was sort of bliss. The only thing missing was my beloved Christian, but that is the really suckalicious thing about being divorced and sharing custody.
I set the table [...]
The Wii Never LiesPosted by beth on November 26, 2008
Weeeeeelllll, I finally got out the Wii Fit today after 65 days of not using it. Let me tell you, it is a very honest piece of equipment. I apparently have gained 9 pounds in the last 65 days. That totally blows my, “at least I’m maintaining” mantra.
So, I ate quite healthy today, drank [...]

Pro Choice?Posted by beth on November 22, 2008
Before you get all upset, this isn’t a post about abortion. Now that we have that settled, this is a matter about choice.
When my mom was young, there wasn’t a whole lot of choosing going on. If you went to college, you most likely chose between being a teacher, a secretary or a nurse. You [...]
Fluffy Day!!!Posted by beth on November 21, 2008
In the cloth diapering world, we get REALLY excited about the day when new “fluff” comes in the mail. Yes, we’re weird that way and get completely twitterpated about something our child is going to defecate in, but that’s just the way it is.
I’ve been holding my breath for my Snazzy Fannies to come in [...]
I Actually Laughed Out LoudPosted by beth on November 18, 2008
Which is why this is my new favorite blog. I love her sense of humor and just how REAL she seems, while yet imparting some very cool ways to make being a SAHM better and more enjoyable.
But that post is what drew me in.
A New Week!Posted by beth on November 17, 2008
Deuteronomy 6:5-9
5 Love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength. 6 These commandments that I give you today are to be upon your hearts. 7 Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the [...]
Happy Sunday!Posted by beth on November 16, 2008
I had a fun and productive day today!
The morning started a little earlier than I would have liked, but Matt was wonderful to me and kept me company when he could have easily gone back to sleep.
I made pancakes for breakfast which were very well received!
After Lily’s morning nap we all packed up and went [...]
Happy Saturday!Posted by beth on November 15, 2008
I really adore the weekends more than ever before. I used to love them when I worked, for obvious reasons, but now I love them because our whole family gets to be together and just enjoy time together. Of course stuff still has to get done, but at least we’re together! I prayed today that [...]
Making BabyfoodPosted by beth on
I love to make Lil’s food. It is so easy and so much cheaper than buying the jarred food in most cases. It also makes me feel good to know that I know exactly what she is getting. Here’s an example of how I make her food:
Start with fresh or frozen fruit and vegetables. [...]
