Ethan's thoughts on Mommy's pregnancy

By -
"Mommy... is your body just gonna keep getting bigger and bigger?" 

"Rachel, we have to help Mommy push her baby out in Octonber, so we will take her on a scary ride that goes really fast." 

"When the baby gets to be one years old, she will stop drinking Mommy's milk, because its disgusting if she's 2." 

"When my baby comes out of your tummy and cries and cries... I will say "you don't need to cry because I have chicken nuggets!!" 

"Will our baby come to church with us?" after I said yes, he followed with... "Oh. So do I tell her about God or will it be just you and Papa Griffith?" 

As you can see, Ethan says he knows he's having another sister. He's decided he'd like the rest to be girls because Rachel is fun and cute.

I know... he cracks us up all the time. I write all this stuff in his journal, so whether he likes it or not, he'll be reading about it someday. :)
These are all the comments I've written since being pregnant. I finally decided they were funny enough to post on here. :)

Yes, Erin... not exactly what I'd like to hear for the next 6 months. :) He isn't very tactful, but I can't complain too much... he gets it from both Jason and me.

One Thousandth blog post + GIVEAWAY!!

By -
This marks the  one thousandth blog post   for me !  If you added the blogging over at Jastef.net, I'm sure it would be far more, but I haven't blogged over there since Kara was a baby. For my simple mind, Blogger worked out much better for me. Sorry, husband.  I've been at this blogging thing for almost 8 years and I'm still not sick of it! I like to write {never thought I'd say that} and I really enjoy interacting with people; friends and then strangers who become friends.  Its great and its been a great way for us to share our day-to-day life with our families, since we moved.  Jason and I have been mulling around what I should do for a 1,000 blog post giveaway, just for fun. Not because I think my 1,000 post is as special to all of you as it is to me. We tossed around the idea of a Kindle, since Amazon dropped the price, but it was still... too much for me. We settled on a fun idea. You get to pick the final result, so read on and then be ...

keeping the sickies away

Probably like most of you Moms, I've been sick of being sick throughout the winter. Its such a fun, holiday time of year and totally stinks when you're stuck inside, with illnesses. And, if you're not a fan of getting a vaccine for every little bug that goes around, you end up realizing you have to do your research to learn how to build up the immune systems and keep your brood healthy. I'm also learning that when it comes to sickness {we're talking sickness that won't cause death}, its actually good for our bodies to learn to fight things off naturally and not constantly running to get shots or drugs to cure us from ever getting sick again {which those shots don't do anyway}.  I'm no pro and my oldest child isn't even 7 yet, so I'm definitely not posting this to teach you ladies anything. And, for those of you with older kids, feel free to leave tips for how you keep your family healthy or natural ways to fight off colds and viruses.  ...
