My Best Friend Angela had her precious Baby Liam Owen Reynolds!! He came 2 months early due to his mommy having a special condition~Unicornuate Uterus. She didn't know she had this condition until she went into preterm labor and had to have a C-Section due to Liam being breech~which is very common in women with a Unicornuate Uterus. Both baby and Mommy are doing very well and we are all so

As the economy worsens, more families are being forced to choose between expensive foods that are healthy and those that are more affordable, but less nutritious.Buying the leanest meats and the freshest produce isn’t always financially realistic when one has to feed a large family on a skin-tight budget. Thankfully, there are some budget-friendly ways parents can make everyday dishes better for

Terry cloth is a thick, absorbent material that works great for making bibs. You can buy terry cloth at the fabric store, or save money by cutting up an old towel. Terry cloth bibs can be as simple or as decorative as you want. You can fasten the bib using hook and loop tape (commonly known by the brand name Velcro) or snaps, or by tying it with pieces of grosgrain ribbon.Things You'll Need: *

Quinoa (pronounced KEEN-wah) is a member of the goosefoot family and is grown in the altiplano of the Andes in Bolivia, Ecuador, and Peru, and some in Chile and Argentina. It has historically been the staple food of the Andes. Quinoa is a cute, light, curly grain that cooks up in approximately 20-25 minutes. It is rather nutty in flavor but is delicious in place of rice in many dishes. Quinoa is

WHAT ARE FAMILIES WITH A PURPOSE? WHAT DOES THAT LOOK LIKE? A family with purpose is a family who knows who they are, what they stand for,what they believe in and what they know God wants from life. They have goals and dreams and plans to make them happen. They are families who live their lives with a purpose. Family activities don't have to be elaborate, expensive planned out ideas.

Cora told me today that she is so glad that God made her! How precious! I love that she acknowledges God's creation and that she is a big part of it! Miles told me, "Mom, you the best!" And gave me a big hug and kiss! It melted my heart and put a smile on my face that I couldn't erase!! Wyatt looked at me and said, "Mama! Mama! Mama!" Of course I love it! I can't believe how big he's getting!! I

All three kids LOVE the pool! It's our favorite thing to play in the summer. Wyatt especially loves the pool. Whenever he sees it, he starts screaming and wiggling to get there as quickly as possible. It's a lot of fun to watch!Wyatt is also a HUGE fan of "hockgogs" (hot dogs) as he calls them and vegetarian baked beans!! (Like you couldn't tell)

We stumbled across this idea after trying it on the appetizer menu at a local restaurant. We loved it and couldn’t wait to try it at home! It is best served as a delicious light dinner, for a Saturday evening at our home, or an appetizer with a Mediterranean dinner of sorts. It is hands on all the way! If you like hummus and feta, you will love this dish! When you make your hummus from scratch,

We have been busy lately! We have started going to the Chiropractor as a family and that has taken up a lot of our evenings. We decided that it was a very important part of our whole health plan for our family. We truly believe in taking care of our whole body (which includes our bones) and so we have been going to the chiropractor! We really enjoy Dr. Matt and his family and our children

Healthy snack time! Wyatt is by far our best and healthiest eater! Cora ate really well but when Miles started saying "yucky" she thought she didn't like things either. I'm sure Wyatt will pick up on these things later, but for now, we are just so very thankful that he eats so well! I have been so relaxed the 3rd time around with Wyatt! He's not yet drinking out of a sippy cup...he has a few

I can't believe that my Miles is 3 already! It's shocking to me that I have a 4 year old, 3 year old and a 10 month old! I always knew I wanted children and I guess I just didn't realize that one day I would wake up and not only do I have children, but they are quickly growing up!!Miles is 3 and doing so many Big Boy things!
