Essie’s Baptism Party
October 14th, 2013 by Aubri
Essie’s baptismal sponsors wanted to have a party for her. They hated that they missed her birthday in September so we did it all over again last weekend. So thoughtful of them.
Supper, gifts,cake and homemade ice cream!
She’s the only baby for whom we’ve chosen sponsors that actually live within 300 miles of us! It’s a blessing to have made some good friends here.
What We’re Reading Wednesday

Joining Housewifespice for What We’re Reading Wednesday.
I picked this book up hoping to find some much needed encouragement. The stories of 10 women who are now on the other side of bearing children are good for perspective. It’s been good for me to read but I have to say giving my fertility to God is still a struggle. Though as helpful as they are, there’s no magic strength that comes from another woman’s story. My journey will be a bit different from anyone I will know or read about and I have to go one day at a time, trusting God for every once of strength. But I’M VERY BAD AT TRUSTING HIM AND GETTING MY STRENGTH FROM HIM.
Anyway, I’m enjoying this one. It’s not exactly what I was hoping it would be BUT it is full of great information on keeping a body healthy and strong through many pregnancies and how to maintain that as we age.
A Book and a Craft
October 7th, 2013 by Aubri
I really like the idea of a Book and a Craft. Last Fall we decorated our front window with this mural so I thought it would fit very nicely with this new book we got for Fall and love. It’s been on my Wish List (as Fletcher and the Falling Leaves) for a couple years so when I saw it in Clara’s Scholastic book order form for way cheap I jumped on it.
The illustrations are beautiful!
