 Well, I have taken the plunge and am no longer using shampoo! I know, you’re probably thinking I’m crazy, but let me assure you I am still “washing” my hair! For a very detailed post on the how’s and why’s, you can go here. The basics are washing with a baking soda and water [...]  After 6 months, it is time for Rachael to bid adieu to mommy’s milk. If you’ve been reading here for a while, you know that she hasn’t nursed since we were in the hospital, so that means that I have been exclusively pumping for just under 6 months – and I have three kids. In the [...] Just before we left to go to Florida I hurt my back. I have no idea what I did because I simply woke up one morning and it was awfully painful. Probably not something that could have happened from rough sleep. That was 3.5 weeks ago and it still hurts. I have [...] Yep, I’m still here. Sorry I haven’t posted in a while. We had Michael’s dad and step-mom visiting from Australia all week. Also, we’ve all had a very nasty cold that turned into sinus infections for Jacob and me. I’m feeling a bit better and trying to tough it out with only the humidifier, lots of [...] Last Saturday I got up (after Michael let me sleep in) and was informed that Eli had thrown up a few times that morning. However, he never got sick again that day so I never really thought much more about it, which was good because Michael left for a 2 week TDY on Sunday [...] I had my follow up from the blood clot, hemorrhaging and D&C last Tuesday and I left feeling totally overwhelmed and so very sad (don’t worry it’s not post partum depression). The dr. and I discussed how well I’ve recovered from everything and how I just feel tremendously different and BETTER! He scheduled me for [...] I have previously posted Jacob’s birth story and Eli’s birth story so now it’s time to tell you about all the craziness we’ve experienced in the last 9 days….. I’m really going to try to make this as short and simple as possible because A LOT has happened in this time frame and it would take [...] This post will be just totally random stuff that is happening in our lives or just going on in my brain… * At my 35 week checkup this week Rachael’s heart rate was 180….. the nurse said “woo, she’s a bit active this morning, eh?” She was doing what felt like cartwheels at that moment!! * [...] I was getting myself and Eli dressed for a trip to the ER….. Let me just say now that I am totally over croup. Did you hear me? Totally.over.croup. This poor child has had croup more times than any child should have to deal with it. He doesn’t just get a mild case of it, [...]  ~1~ The new garden is going fairly well. I’m not sure what’s going on with the strawberries (they’re almost goners), but everything else seems to be thriving! I have several tomatoes that should be ready in a couple of weeks! They looks so yummy already, now if they’d just hurry up and start ripening…..  |
