Myrrh Welcomes Arrows

Thursday, December 16th, 2010

A Bundle of Myrrh welcomes my “mommy” blog Arrows In the Hand today. I’ve imported that blog here so you may see more entries than were posted before. Arrows in the Hand chronicled my journey of motherhood. It was a place I wrote more openly, more personally, kept things specific to what I was learning as a mother and jotted down moments with my children that I didn’t want to forget. I will continue to do so here.

I’m hoping that by combining these blogs I can simplify things a little for myself but mostly I’m doing this because I just haven’t liked the new “home” I found for Arrows in the Hand and didn’t want to go back to using Blogger to host it.

I’m also thinking that this will be easier for those of you who read our blogs. Now everything is in ONE place!

This is probably mostly for the Grandparents among us, but I’m going to try to keep my online photo album updated with pictures I think are worth sharing and, for the Grandparents, ordering or printing if they want to.

So click HERE to see the albums.

Nesting is for the birds

Saturday, August 7th, 2010

I suppose the nesting bug has settled in. I’ve had a real bad case of wanting to reorganize EVERY inch of our house AND bake muffins. I got some of this out of my system yesterday with some pantry and cabinet reordering and making these pumpkin muffins but must have really overdone it.

I was completely worn out by evening and ended up having contractions every 5-10 minutes for about 5 hours then I fell asleep so I lost track of whether or not they continued. These were pretty easy contractions and “regularly irregular” so I wasn’t worried. But today I’m taking it very easy which is crazily harder than I thought!
