Cupcakes to Coos: June 2012
http://sweetmommyhood.blogspot.com/2012_06_01_archive.html
Thursday, June 7, 2012. For what it's worth: the struggle of the self. So now that I've gone into too much detail just vaguely describing what I'm about to write about, here it goes. And so begins the journey to find the self for many. The disillusionment of the self confidence lie creates a hunger for something bigger, something that will shed light on who we are. But the lie is really just perpetuated again. Finding the self is just a rephrased adult version "you can be anything!

Cupcakes to Coos: September 2010
http://sweetmommyhood.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html
Friday, September 17, 2010. Turning 24: the Year of Mommyhood. As it goes, my birthday is tomorrow. I will be 24 years old. It's sort of hard to believe I'm so young yet so old at the same time. High school doesn't seem like a totally distant memory yet I can't even imagine reliving those days over again. I was a different person altogether and I don't think I'm alone in that. Move or stay here? When will we start trying to have children - woah am i even ready for kids? O Lord, you have searched me.

Cupcakes to Coos: Back to Baking
http://sweetmommyhood.blogspot.com/2011/08/back-to-baking.html
Tuesday, August 30, 2011. Since the birth of this little one. Too cute, right? I haven't baked much. A dozen chocolate chip cookies here, some brownies there. But nothing serious and by that I mean no cupcakes. As Zoey has just left the newborn stage and entered into the wonderful world of semi-regular naps, I decided recently it was time to reconnect with an old friend, my lovely stand mixer, and whip up a batch of my favorites - mocha cupcakes (mmm! To sum it up, the cupcake lady is back! I'm a mom to ...

Cupcakes to Coos: August 2010
http://sweetmommyhood.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html
Tuesday, August 24, 2010. Being Responsible. What Does it REALLY Mean? Last week was a whirlwind. I was trying to wrap my head around being pregnant which is very exciting but pretty scary too. I also had to deal with the stress of the doctor visit - the certainty of facing of some of my fears (needles. eek! And the uncertainty of the outcome of the tests (is my baby okay? And that's my two cents on responsibility. Friday, August 20, 2010. Ultrasound, full pelvic exam, blood work, finger prick sugar leve...

Cupcakes to Coos: And Then There Were Three!
http://sweetmommyhood.blogspot.com/2011/08/and-then-there-were-three.html
Tuesday, August 23, 2011. And Then There Were Three! So it has been quite awhile since I posted on here but cut me some slack, I've had my hands full with this little one -. Yes, the long anticipated birth of Zoey Jordan Rhodes took place on April 21, 2011. PAUSE: And here it comes - the birth story. I know, I know. But you don't have to read it! It won't hurt my feelings, really! The morning of April 21 started early but it couldn't have been early enough for me. I wanted that baby OUT! I was induced ar...

Cupcakes to Coos: The First Three Months
http://sweetmommyhood.blogspot.com/2011/08/first-three-months.html
Tuesday, August 23, 2011. The First Three Months. I'm going to be completely honest. If I have learned anything these past few months as a new mother, it's that you cannot deny the truth because it only leads you away from Christ and loved ones and that's a dangerous place to be. I know because that's where I was for the first three months of Zoey's life. I questioned why I had ever decided to have children. How could I be so stupid? What did I expect? Is this going to be the rest of my life? Because it ...

Cupcakes to Coos: Rest
http://sweetmommyhood.blogspot.com/2012/08/rest.html
Friday, August 17, 2012. My rock and my salvation,. My stronghold; I shall not be shaken. Salvation and my glory rest. The rock of my strength, my. Refuge is in God. Trust in Him at all times, O people;. Pour out your heart before Him;. God is a refuge for us. Strange as it may seem, I find myself envying my dog from time to time. All in all, I prefer my life over his, but there is something about the way he spends his days that I've found I long for. And it's the way he rests. View my complete profile.

Cupcakes to Coos: All Other Ground is Sinking Sand
http://sweetmommyhood.blogspot.com/2013/06/all-other-ground-is-sinking-sand.html
Thursday, June 27, 2013. All Other Ground is Sinking Sand. On Christ the Solid Rock I stand,. All other ground is sinking sand". From the hymn "Solid Rock". Is this what Paul meant when he said "Consider it pure joy when you face trials of many kinds"? Focus on it. Think of the person or animal that is trapped in the sinking sand. Think of how they got there. They stumbled upon it right? Have I depressed you yet? I'm sorry. I'm feeling it a little bit myself with all of that imagery! If you're a mom, you...

October 13, 2009 at 3:58 pm · Filed under Uncategorized. I was finally able to invite my dad over for his birthday this past Sunday night. Of course I baked him a cake! My dad is a total anglophile and Beatle-obsessed so I decided to make a Union Jack cake (British flag). The design is pretty simple and only requires three basic colors so it worked well with my limited cake decorating skills! Here’s a peak:. I also made cupcakes with the leftover batter…. My dad and husband enjoyed the cake! I still can&...
