All night long

As I sit here pumping in bed at 3:30 in the morning, I wonder how I got my little one to sleep all night long in his crib! I'm watching wiggle and move on the baby monitor and thank God that he can now sleep all night with no help! Me on the other hand, well I'm trying to keep that milk supply up and create a supply for when we go out of town. When will my days of All Night Long come?

    HAHAHA-- Ahhh, pumping... It's sad when you look at how hard you work and for how many months you prepared and how fast it goes... How long are you going out of town for?

    We are going out of town for 2 days. I am pumping also to keep up with my supply. I got low when he started sleeping six hours at a time and I didn't pump. Breastfeeding didn't come as easy as I thought it would!

    Wow! did you fly? If so how did you carry on all that milk? I don't think I will get that much. When I pump and he doesn't nurse I don't get much. We have been struggling with a low milk supply.

We all need friends

I remember almost a year ago when a good friend of mine invited me to a lunch group, Friday's at noon. At that time in my life I needed it! I needed to get out and meet new friends, other ladies with children about the same age, going through the same thing. This was a life saver for me. I am not a very outgoing person and it's hard to make friends when you don't have a full time job. Long story made short.... I made some GREAT friends in that group. As all good things to do though, things changed, people moved on and life became a little crazy for all of us. So the lunch group is starting up again and even though some people have left, we have some new faces to get to know! Wednesday a couple of us went out for a ladies night out and it was great! Two new people for me to get to know and I feel like I have made two new life long friends. It's so refreshing to just have a night out with the ladies and yes, we may spend the whole night talking about our babies and what t...

Why you will need to add a few more to your boycotting list

I have not said a lot about this because I try to not engage in this on Facebook. However I do want to share this interesting article. It might surprise you that I am actually a very conservative person but yes this is my view on this subject... but for all of you boycotting Target you might need to add a few to the list... I do not agree fully with the way that Target handled this issue but I also don't agree with the way a majority of the people are handling it. I believe we are supposed to stand up for what we believe in. We know that we live in a sin filled world and people are not perfect, I am not perfect. Aaron Wilson wrote, "Boycotting as it turns out, is just too easy. Christians are not called to avoid the culture out of disgust, but rather to engage it in wisdom, love, and truth." His article talks about why boycotting is not the best answer for this situation. Other companies will likely follow Target with policies similar, are we going to boycott all ...

The Connor Girls

Yesterday Todd and I packed up Wyatt and headed over to the Connor house to watch their two little girls, Eliza and Ryals. Eliza is two and Ryals is 9 months old. I arrived at 9:45 am to relieve the grandparents and I was alone until 12. What was I worried about, I used to be a nanny, oh and I'm a mom!! The girls were great! Ryals went down like a pro for her morning nap and Eliza and I went outside to play some bubbles and enjoy the outdoors before it got to hot. Thirty minutes later all three of us were playing in Eliza's room. It is so sweet how the two of them play together. At 11:45, I was buckling them both in their highchairs and getting them ready for lunch. Just then Todd arrived, with lunch and another hungry baby! He was in charge of feeding Wyatt, I was feeding Ryals and watching Eliza. Then I entertained them with the Wiggles so that we could eat. Once we were done, it was upstairs for some coloring, and lots of toys!! Before we knew it, 1:30 had rolled around and...
