People who are tagged need to write their own blog about their eight things and post these rules. 4. At the end of your blog, you […]
Small updates
Dentist appointment was no big deal… he just added a little temporary filling, as he prefers to avoid doing dental work during pregnancy. Hopefully my teeth will do ok until next spring! I added a “widget” to the sidebar that shows baby’s development “as it happens” … pretty neat!
Why do we have “so many” children?
Because we believe like this family: Joel’s Journey (blog).
So far, so good!
I’m still feeling “normal”… none of the usual aversions (yet). Interestingly, the only other pregnancy where I cannot recall having aversions was Rachel…. I haven’t made an appointment with my OB yet, but probably should before too much longer.
My brother wrote a children’s book.
It’s available to any interested parties at Lulu.com.
Yesterday
Yesterday, we went to Lake Winnepesaukah (2-for-1 Coke Friday) and had a great time! When we got there, first we rode the train around the park. Then Robby put JL on the baby motorcycles while the rest of us went to the Matterhorn (round & round, up & down thingy … sometimes called bobsled something or other)… JL didn’t like […]
What IS it with dreams?
The dream starts out in a cafeteria, with a bunch of people I don’t know in real life, but I knew there. I had to leave the room for something (can’t recall what) and when I came back, all the people who WERE there had gone and there were different people in the seats. Returning to the seat I’d been […]
A dear friend of mine on “time” –
Today someone got really frustrated with me. They were telling me how frustrated they are with their lives, that there is so much to do and they are always so overwhelmed. Something HAD to break because they NEEDED to spend time doing pet projects and things that are important to them. I started to say, “I know. My life is […]
Weird dream
I dreamed we had adopted several children (I’m thinking it was a sibling group) and had taken them to my friends F&K’s house (but it wasn’t the one they live in, in real life) to visit. We had a nice visit! When we were getting ready to leave, F had a new thing that was supposed to make money transfer […]

The Homeschool Kids Who Can’t Do Anything
By Zak Gahagan We are the homeschool kids who can’t do anything We just stay at home and do our work And if you ask us to do anything We’ll just tell you We can’t do anything. Well, I can’t pass notes in math class and I’ve never bought my school lunch and I’ve never had my homework eaten by […]
Oh, eww.
JL woke us up this morning about 5am. He was a little feverish, so we got out the thermometer to take his temperature, and discovered… pinworms. Eww. So Robby went and got medicine for all of us and we took that this morning. Blah. But hopefully we won’t have to worry about them anymore. I think it’s good that JL […]
5 Children & It (2004)
5 Children & It (a movie made in 2004 loosely based on the book by Edith Nesbit) was a bit of a disappointment. It did not follow the book at all (though it used a couple of the original elements) and was a completely different story than E. Nesbit’s original. If you liked the book, skip the movie. If you […]
