For those of you who have not heard John Wallers “While I’m Waiting” I highly recommend you track this song down. I tried to find it on myspace, but John Waller doesn’t have this one listed…
I first heard this song about a year ago. The ministry team I was leading was going […]
After the ultrasound on Tuesday I had some light spotting. Unfortunately, yesterday the spotting continued and progressed to more steady bleeding. We called the doctor and she said we should be fine to wait until today to get checked out.
We went in to the office today and after an ultrasound it was determined […]
We had never wanted to pierce Monkeys ears while she was still a “baby”. The conversation would come and go, but we had decided every time she was still too little. As time went on, we decided that it was something we could do when she became a big sister. […]
Our first OBGYN appointment was today and I was excited and nervous at the same time. As I mentioned before, this pregnancy has been a lot different from my last one… the biggest difference being how good I feel!

About six months ago we decided Monkey was ready for potty training. We went out and bought the musical potty, flushable wipes, panties, stickers and a sticker chart and candy.
I came home so determined only to realize it was a false alarm… she wasn’t ready. She would only tell me she had to […]
It seems that we are to be blessed by another child. I find it difficult to contain my excitement. As usual, I am trying to play it cool, but this really is overwhelming and thrilling all at the same time. There are a lot of things that are different with this pregnancy:
