Pictures

Here are some random pictures of the kids, from today and then some pictures of the baby's room. As you can see, I still need to hang pictures, but we're going to wait until she's born so we can make sure exactly where we want everything, before hanging it. :)


Playing inside on a HOT afternoon
so sleepy after playtime with all her cousins


See Amber, she's not always happy! :)

I love the room! And the cute picture of Rachel sleeping! :) Ok, great taste. That shelf is awesome & I've never seen a changing table like that before--smart idea to have it in the corner & facing you. That's so wonderful that someone gifted the crib. My cousin's eldest son just graduated into a "big boy" bed & wanted to get rid of the crib so we have one too! A few years early :) We have it for visitors now. It's such a great thing, those hand-me-downs. All worn in with love & care. We're just so glad so those can get so darn expensive!

Thanks, Jess! I can't wait to finish hanging everything on her walls because I think it will look... well, finished. :)
I was worried the blue color would be terrible for a girl, but if you see it in person its more of a blue'ish purple and with all the flowery, girly things up, it looks even better!

We were so thankful to get that crib! My sister just gave me the most adorable crib skirt as well. We'll wash the shits and blankets the week before I'm due and then I'll take a picture of that when its all done. :)

Cute...that changing table is very cool! Such a great idea, and a smaller "footprint" on the floor.

we were so stoked to find this changing table and we've used it on Rachel, just to see how we like it and we absolutely LOVE it! I can't wait to start using it with the baby.

Jess, we got it at Walmart.

Isn't it fun getting ready for baby? I had a blast. Cute room and even cuter kids. Hang in there these last few weeks, Stef! I'll be praying for a safe and easy delivery for you.

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.  ...
