{ Mothering Monday }

So today's news is pretty exciting! We are going to have another baby! Yes, baby #3 is on the way! I am about 8 weeks along now, and the morning sickness (or rather evening sickness) phase is kicking in! It's not terrible, but basically just queasiness. I am very exciting about having another baby, and it is still sinking in for my husband! So cool God has decided to bless us with another sweet baby!

Lo, Children are an  Heritage of the LORD: and the fruit of the womb is his reward

{ Mothering Monday! }

Hi! Happy Monday! Naomi and my nephew Mason, are playing happily in the living room right now, and Samuel is taking a much needed nap. The house is still somewhat messed up from the weekend, but it is slowly shaping up! I don't know about you guys, but Monday is always cleaning day here. I read a great passage this morning during my devotions in my Amplified Bible. The context is Paul speaking to the Colossians, but I thought it was really great applied to Mothers. Here it is:

"Him we preach and proclaim, warning and admonishing every one and instructing every one in all wisdom, [ in comprehensive insight into the ways and purposes of God], that we may present every person mature - full-grown, fully initiated, complete and perfect - in Christ, the Anointed One. For this I labor [ unto weariness] , striving with all the superhuman energy which He so mightily enkindles and works within me."

I think we can at least start the process of having these things worked out in our children, with God's help of course!

Here is a picture of Naomi and I taken after church yesterday.

{ Things I Love - Wednesday!}

Here are some fun body products I have been loving this month. 
No. #1 - I Love Raspberry and Blackberry body butter
No. #2 - I Love Raspberry and Blackberry shower gel
No. #3- Sexy Little Things Noir body mist
No. #4 - Nolina Lip Balm from Joshua Tree


The " I Love Raspberry and Blackberry" items were given to me from my sister-in-law Ashley for Christmas, and I am really loving them. My good friend, Amber gave me the body mist, which I absolutely love! My sister Mary gave me the lip balm as part of a fun bath and body package she sent me for Christmas!

How was your past week of Mothering? Naomi was sick last week, but Thankfully is feeling better now, so there was some nights with little sleep, and lots of cuddling and nursing. She has gotten much better at walking in the past week too!
