Rachel ~ My Sister and Birth Helper

She was there for my first birth. She was only 7. So cute…So young and eager to be of help….Now at 14 she’ll be here for this one also. Number 4. She’s becoming a pro at this! I’ll miss her tons when she goes back to Texas. But for now I am soaking up the joy she adds with being around. She has been an incredible helper as I’ve stumbled through this last couple of weeks before the due date. She plans to bake a birthday cake for little Ryker  as I labor. That’s what I did while she was being born…(I was 17 1/2)…and it was the day after Valentine’s Day. I whipped up a yummy cake to the tune of mom’s Home Birthing labor. I was called into the room just in time to see Rachel crown and make an entrance. It was life changing.

I Love you Rachel !!!!!

My Online Baby Shower

My good friend Bethany tried to get me set up with an online baby shower. They have those now. Really cool. You plug into the online baby shower site and you get registered with stores, and meet online on a certain day and time and chat, play games etc. It’s a real Baby Shower…but all in Cyber Space. Cool Huh!? Well I needed to get her my Email addresses of friends., etc….and I never pulled together my end of the deal. So Ummmm..being a sweet and understanding friend…she dropped it without throwing her shoe at me. hahahah

However….On my message board (which too few of you bloggers are enjoying with me… hee hee) they are still managing to throw me a message board shower. So cool. I have the best online, message boarding, blogging, Cyber spacing friends in the world. I thought it would be fun to share that shower here so I could include you all in it. It may not be the fancy Online Baby Shower that my dear Bethany would have like to give me…but it’s close. Kind of.

Pregnant Pregnant Pregnant Pregnant Pregnant

Online Friends…Amy and Amber….
tried to surprise me with a park day baby shower.
And between me canceling things
and then my friend’s household getting the Chicken Pox…
Well…it didn’t work out.
BUT…..other things have started rolling in and
I’m just so blessed and touched!

Thank You for being so thoughtful!!!!

Amy!!!!!!

One day while I was out of the house about a week or so ago…Amy dropped by and brought me her very own rocking chair.
What a HUGE blessing. I have been several babies now without a rocker and it’s driven me crazy! Thank you Amy for being so giving…and blessing me with your rocker.



This will be my place to perch in the middle of night for the next few months!!!! LOL

Kristy!!!!!!

How FUN!!! Thank you!!!!!!

You are SO cool. What a beautiful and thoughtful gift.

Love Love Love Love

Rachel & Mama !!!!

Mom has been grabbing pieces of the bed set I started to get….from the clearance at Babies R Us…

Here’s the Changing Table Pad …OH…and she bought me the ORGANIC PAD too! Isn’t that just Cool?

and the Boppy Pillow Cover

And her latest contribution was a Computer desk that I’m going to use as my changing area! It’s so perfect and groovy!!!

So Between Craig’s List and The Clearance at babies R Us…It’s been fun putting together this set. Between money family has sent and things mom and Rachel have done…the “little” things that are unnecessary but fun…are coming together and making it so cute.

Honey Man !!!

My Jason utterly spoiled me and allowed me one more REALLY frivolous item…..

and then Surprised me with another….

The frivolous item is THIS!!!!!!
(I got 15 percent off with a coupon AND it was already on sale for 20 dollars off
so I nearly got it half off!!! Or whatever that math comes too Loony … )

This lovely MATCHING stroller.

The Fun Surprise Purchase was this:
EEEK! EEEK! EEEK! EEEK! EEEK! EEEK! EEEK!

It feels like gliding in the clouds. It’s soft enough to bring me to tears. I truly LOVE it. Love

And Compliments of my Grandmother – - A Baby Carrier that I hope might be useful…..matching OF course….
Small Giggle Small Giggle Small Giggle Small Giggle

So, I know I didn’t need any of this stuff…but it sure has been fun seeing the pieces come together afterall when I thought they totally wouldn’t….and I’m used to not really having any matching baby stuff…afterall that kind of thing is mostly for first time parents…and this is old hat for me…..
BUT !!!!!!!! This is the FIRST time out of 6 pregnancies and 4 births…that I’ve EVER had a nursery corner and built a matching baby theme like this.

It’s been wildly entertaining. Silly…and Frivolous…but Fun Fun Fun.

~ A Helpful Homeschooling Survey ~

Would you like to be a part of history?
I have a really good friend who is inspired to create a curriculum for homeschooling moms to teach the subject of Health. There really is not a lot to choose from on the Homeschooling Market. She is already underway with building this study but wanted to allow moms to speak up and talk about what they would like to see from such a study . She will incorporate people’s ideas as she builds and creates it.

Her Blog is here if you’d like to submit any thoughts or ideas: http://wilsonclan.wordpress.com/

…….And this is a Survey/Poll she created to glean some general ideas from us all. Please go take it and help her as she builds a fantastic curriculum. http://www.polldaddy.com/s/28C58B05152FE1E7/

A note from the developing Author:

“I am in the development stages of creating a curriculum to educate families about the importance of nutritional health. I would appreciate any feedback that you are willing to provide. Any further suggestions, comments, or correspondence can be sent to me at wilsonclan.living.loving.learning@gmail.com. Thanks!”

Hello! Almost Birthing Day!

Well, It’s almost Father’s Day…that’s My Due Date. June 15th.
I’m so tired and bulky!!!!
I think I’m irritable because I’m so close to the birth.
I know it’s a pretty trivial prayer request …
but if you could pray for my attitude. I have 3 energetic little
boys who need love and good attitude from mama whether or not
I feel like it.

I’m just SO cranky … it’s ridiculous.
Mama needs a MAJOR attitude fix!

So I’d appreciate any prayers…..

I had a bit of a budget, but it ran out fast…but I found THIS decor on clearance at Babies R Us..Isn’t it cute?
Isn’t it CUTE? The Baby Blue Brown and Green Camo look. Awwwwwwe.

I was able to pick up the bedding and got a crib from Craig’s List. YAY! Fun!

The baby is now considered “full term” So Any day now would be GREAT with me. Although I really have about 3 ish weeks to wait since I usually go PAST my date…not before. The midwife brought over my birthing kit, other supplies, and I have the birthing pool ready for use! YAY! This weekend my projects were:

Washed , folded, found a place for baby things.
Bought a new infant car seat….this one : http://www.babyearth.com/chicco-keyfit-30-infant-car-seat-and-base.html
The one we’d had since Nathanael was an infant finally bit the dust ..it was time for a new one.
We’ll be eating rice and beans next week…but we’ll have a cute car seat!!! LOL
Cleaned the bathrooms.
Packed my birthing and post birthing clothing.
Studied my Hypnobabies Course.
Worshiped at the piano…Haven’t in a while…Was so nice…
Watched water birthing videos.
Took my boys to the park to play.

Hope you all had a nice weekend also!

them into swimming lessons.
