My baby is coming home!

My baby is coming home!

8 days ago...my oldest baby...Miss Abigail left us for a journey of a lifetime. She, along w/ her church family, took off to Kingston Jamiaca for a Missionary Trip. They painted a Salvation Army school for the blind, they cleaned up their playground and found a handful of glass in the play yard. They taught the children how to play soccer, had VBS with them, got to enjoy the beach for a day, and attended their church service. I was very worried while she was gone, you always hear about never going off your resort when you go to visit places like that, but with trusting her leaders and the Lord, she made it and survived.

We are busy decorating the house for her arrival. Welcome Home signs, lighted up balloons, and her name spelled out for her in the airport (pure embrassment for her walking off the plane...of course!) for the littles to hold up to greet her. In 4 1/2 hours she will be back on Nebraska soil.

We have missed her!

Hey friends!

Have you ever felt like you really knew what you were doing .... to find out you have NO IDEA what so ever?  Well many moons ago...I started this blog.  I learned how to do some advance work, how to change templates and such, make pretty backgrounds, change font colors, etc. Well I wanted to get a new background, went to a different site (they are all pretty much the same right?) did the ol' copy and paste....and TOTALLY SCREWED UP MY PAGE!  Not only did I change the background, but somehow my title font is now in white and my main area was so wide, I couldnt even see the new pretty background!  I guess that is what I get for not being content with things.  I should have just left it like it was for you all to enjoy.  But nope!  So if it looks a bit wonky on your end...I am trying to get it fixed.

Sincerely,
Mrs Know-It-All

Im Back....and A little bit crunchy!

Back to Blogging!

Well its been a LOOOOONG time again from blogging...with this large of a family, I wonder why?!? Let's see....I am now breastfeeding, cloth diapering, baby wearing mama to a beautiful 8 mo old.  She is the light of our days....and such a mama's girl! 

I guess you can say we have turned a bit "crunchy"?  Crunchy....the hubby thought I was making up the term.  The things that make me "crunchy".....

• Having a garden
• Breastfeeding (never touching a drop of formula)
• Baby wearing as much as possible (no baby is a box as one of my friends call it)
• CLOTH DIAPERING (I think thats a big crunchy thing)  
• I have the tools to make my own baby food but yet have started but want to.
• We want to live on a farm and raise chickens - hoping to purchase a farm in the future 

Are you crunchy?  What makes you crunchy?  Do you like the term crunchy?

Hope to stay up with you all....and gain more visitors!
