Wednesday, September 29, 2010. The move date was/ is set. Originally we were set to move into the house in Lexington on Oct. 15th. However, that date has gotten pushed back to the 22nd. I definitely feel like I am scrambling to see a lot of people and do a lot of things before I leave. Here are a few pics of the house for the curious folk:. Front of house. bet you couldn't tell (hehe! Fenced in backyard with a small patio and deck. Part of the kitchen. 3) Downstairs half bath. Today was Johanna's last gy...

Momma and Me: 30 things I learned by 30
http://rachelmama.blogspot.com/2011/05/30-things-i-learned-by-30.html
Tuesday, May 24, 2011. 30 things I learned by 30. I figured my 30th birthday would be a good time to reintroduce myself to the blogging world. Oh blog, how I have missed you. It has been a long time. So, without any further ado- 30 things I learned by 30:. 1 Trampolines are fun no matter how old you are. 2 I TOTALLY take back all the times I didn't want to nap when I was younger. 4 It's ok if someone doesn't like me and has no bearing on how I feel about myself. 5 There is a lot that I DON'T know. 10 Som...

Momma and Me: November 2010
http://rachelmama.blogspot.com/2010_11_01_archive.html
Saturday, November 27, 2010. WowI am tired. We just got home from our trip up to O-H-I-O for Thanksgiving. It was great to see friends, celebrate with family, and of course continue my black Friday shopping tradition (a post for another day). How can I be vulnerable without drowning myself in my sorrow? Unseen, Unsought, Uncertain. I know I am not alone in this nagging sense of failing to measure up, a feeling of not being good enough. I am not enough,. And, I am too much. At the same time. Not prett...

Momma and Me: December 2010
http://rachelmama.blogspot.com/2010_12_01_archive.html
Friday, December 24, 2010. One of the things on my mind today. Just a simple man and wife. Somewhere in the dark. His words cut the silent night. Take my hand, for the child. That you carry is God's own. And though it may seem the road is long. We're not that far from Bethlehem. Where all our hope and joy began. For in our arms, we'll cherish Him. We're not that far, from Bethlehem. As the Christmas's go by. Learn to live our days. With our hearts near to the child. Ever drawn, ever close. They had a spe...

Tuesday, August 24, 2010. A new kind of normal. I am so grateful for all the people who have been supporting me and checking-in on me since the school year has begun. I have been readily reminded of how many wonderful people I have in my life- what a true blessing. I figured I would write a quick post about this. And am reconnecting to the daytime community of other moms. I am doing things for myself again.which feels great. Sunday, August 15, 2010. Syndromes.mine or my child's? I have been to Walmart.

Momma and Me: January 2011
http://rachelmama.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
Sunday, January 9, 2011. Oh what I would do to have. The kind of faith it takes. To climb out of this boat I'm in. Onto the crashing waves. To step out of my comfort zone. Into the realm of the unknown where Jesus is. And He's holding out His hand. But the waves are calling out my name. And they laugh at me. Reminding me of all the times. I've tried before and failed. The waves they keep on telling me. Time and time again. "Boy, you'll never win! But the voice of truth tells me a different story. Sunday,...

Momma and Me: August 2009
http://rachelmama.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
Tuesday, August 18, 2009. Profound or just lack of sleep. These are the things that keep me up at night. Monday, August 3, 2009. I have learned a lot while enjoying my summer of cooking and baking. Brian and I have both become much healthier (minus the occasional day or two of splurging! We get to eat lots of fresh veggies with every meal. To learn more, check out this. Foods that are safe for my growing baby. Who knows what the developmental effects of these horrible practices will be down the road?

Next came "Mommy, where you put my sandwich? Now apparently I am a lying mother who steals food from her child. I think maybe she eventually believed that she ate it. Sunday, June 21, 2009. Conference Momference.what I learned about math and dads. Saturday, June 13, 2009. Don't miss my update below this post. 1 pkg cream cheese (I use low fat).

Momma and Me: August 2011

Wednesday, August 10, 2011. Summa Time and the topics are Rough! I can't believe that it is almost the middle of August as I am writing this post. I feel like the past two months have literally flown by! We have been so busy with birthday parties, story time, play dates, swim lessons, and did a mini vacation to Great Wolf Lodge. I visited several preschools after doing copious amounts of research. The last one we visited was. Beginnings Christian Day School. I wish I could describe the difference between...

Momma and Me: More than words...
http://rachelmama.blogspot.com/2011/10/more-than-words.html
Friday, October 21, 2011. Sometimes song lyrics can describe where we are at so much more than we are able to ourselves. Here's my song of the week, month, year. ;-) The video is embedded to the right. Father, let the world just fade away. Let me feel your presence in this place. Lord, Ive never been so weary. How I need to know youre near me. Father, let the world just fade away. Till Im on my knees. Till my heart can sing. He always will be. Even when it feels like there is no one holding me.
