Contemplating getting up to work more. I want to memorize this feeling of holding my littlest miracle. Her body melted on my chest in peaceful sleep. What a gift mommy-hood is.

Tea time, bible time with my Girlies on our sick day.

Made my mom's chicken enchiladas and wrapped them individually this time. Now i just grab how many needed lay them in a baking dish with foil opened, smother them with some cheese and chille if wanted and pop them in the oven to heat up. Sometimes i pull them out of foil and microwave to dethaw a little first. Lunch will be ready in no time! I know its early 10.30! but we are sick and off schedule and hungry.

One of my favorite pictures my sister took today of my six month old! I'll have upload the real copies soon!

Elle is turning into my beautiful little girl instead of my cute little baby.

Big pot of grapes! Making grape jelly and fruit leather.

I almost puked my 3 year old cut my two year olds hair while i was putting the baby down for nap. Her beautiful curls are now a mullet.

Awesome popcorn kernel bowl sister-in-law made. Its my husbands face! Popcorn time!

Ever since I was little God has sent me pennies in times i was lacking trust in Him. I remember one strong memory of pulling up to a place to get ice cream with my family after church very sad and full of questions for God about my life in my head. I stepped out of the car and there was a shiny penny laying in front of me with abraham lincoln faced up. I picked it up and read the 'in God we trust' and wanted to cry. I felt Gods presence and Him remind me of His control in all things. Well this morning has been also a time of questions and lacking trust. this whole morning Ive been wrestling in prayer. Well I went wash my hands to make the girls lunch and as i was walking to the oven my hands dripping with water I felt some thing heavy drip and fall off my hand and made a clink noise. Thinking i lost my ring I looked down to find a penny that just fell! I picked it up to find the same encouraging message 'in God we trust'! Don't know how it happened but I know it was from God and am thankful I could teach my girls about trusting in God today. Now whenever they find a penny they say. "It says 'In God We Trust'."

Tashi sitting sweetly eating her oatmeal. She breaks the silence. 'mommy i do want to fight bad guys. I do.' there is a pattern in my family of middle children wanting to fight bad guys in some way. I am the middle child that was too scared but deep down would love to be a bounty hunter or maybe someone who just gathers intelligence  But my motherly heart hurts to picture my sweet baby actually going into any of that!

From our family reunion trip. We were driving up and say about 10 deer eating right on the edge of the road! Babies mamas boys or daddys not too sure. We pulled over and to watch and they stayed about a car length away from us but didnt really run too fast or far. Daniel got elle out and they sam through the brush with the deer hopping ahead of them. So cute. This believe it or not had several deer in the shot not too far from me but my phone camera isnt very clear so you might not see any.

My best friend, my love
