Linking up my 5 Favorite things with Hallie at Moxie Wife.
1.
Tiny Vestments
I saw THESE tiny vestments a while back and really wanted a set for my liturgical table. I knew it was probably something my mother-in-law could make. And she did! She brought them to me last week. They’re perfect.
2.
Yellow Squash Casserole
I like squash but it is not my favorite. However, I have found a dynamite way to eat it. Phil’s mom made a casserole last week with squash from their garden. I found a similar recipe HERE. Got squash? You must try this.

This Birth Story
Read it. You will laugh.

Ella Bella Ballerina books
We love these books by James Mayhew.
We now have 3 of the 4, I got this one for Clara this week. I plan on getting one more for Lily’s birthday gift.

This post on “What we moms can do for each other“
Talking to my girlfriend this week about how discouraging other moms can be to each other, sometimes down right nasty mean. It’s easy to compare our mothering our housekeeping to another’s and feel real good or feel real bad. Don’t do that, read this post.
I really, really, really want to make those tiny vestments.
I am literally crying from laughing so hard at that birth story. Ahhhh…birth!
Love the tiny vestments! They are way cuter than the plain ribbon I put around my wall crucifix. I also really enjoyed the birth story, I can relate to some parts too.
Phil’s mom said the vestments weren’t hard to make. I’m sure even I could have done it if I’d made the time…!
Gotta love a good birth story right?!
