Photo Update

I survived my hair cut!  A big thanks to my friend Amanda who suggested her stylist to me.  I loved her and she did a very nice job.  Next time I'm probably going to go even shorter in the back and a little more choppy through the bangs.  But she did exactly what I asked.  

Here is a picture of the back.  It's looking a little crazy, I probably ran my hands through it before snapping the picture.  I like it, but like I said, next time probably going to go even shorter and "stackier" in the back.

And here is my baby bump picture.  I'm not sure what I am "suppose" to look like at 29 weeks (28 weeks and 5 days, I rounded up).  But apparently my bump is small in comparison to most at this point because every time people find out that I am due in May, they ask me if I am sure there is a baby in there.  Yeah... let's give the paranoid something more to worry about.  I am thinking it is because I am so tall, she's got a lot of room to stretch out.  Since my last appointment (2 and a half weeks ago), I haven't gained any weight.  But I seriously can't see my feet anymore! 

Our next doctor's appointment is tomorrow!  I always enjoy doctor's appointments.  Everything seems to be going well.  Haley is moving around a lot more.  I'm starting to feel a little less like "somethings going to go wrong" and starting to enjoy the whole pregnant thing more.  

Hope everyone has a fantastic Monday...off to the gym for the first time in a week!  FINALLY kicking this cold!!!

Fruit & Root Connection: Tangled Up

Certainly, I've expressed my aversion to hyper-spiritualized language before. It often feels contrived, lacking authenticity—a facade of piety. Perhaps it's projection. Maybe jealousy. Or it could stem from a sense of disillusionment with the Christian community. But every so often, amidst the noise, a truth resonates deeply. "There is a root and fruit connection between heart and behavior. People and situations do not determine our behavior; these things provide an occasion where our behavior reveals our hearts." - Instruments in the Redeemer's Hands I've been navigating through my anger, confronting myself in the mirror. What does this anger unveil about my own heart? Surely, they aren't as enraged with me. In fact, they probably don't spare me a second thought. If anything, they—as sincerely as they can muster—bemoan my status as an apostate. So pitiful. My fruit is anger. And too often, I'm tempted to point fingers elsewhere as the source of my...

Never Say When

At some point in my journey, I forgot that church leaders are flawed humans too. I have a tendency to overly respect authority for the sake of their position. I assumed, being a pastor meant that there is some how a higher spiritual connection. Consequently, I would turn off my own discernment in favor for whatever I was being instructed to do by our church leader. The person I have grown to distrust the most and the person I betrayed the most was myself.  Examples: Early in our journey, we had a small group. For the most part, I LOVED small group nights. Until we had a change of seasons. I had just had my third baby. We were living in a rental property while renovating another home ourselves. I was working on leading our developing children's ministry and feeling over my head. Ian worked afternoons so either small group would take one of only two family nights or would be when he was working, leaving me to attend alone most of the time. Our small group had roughly 10-15 small chil...

Bucket List

It's the final countdown.... Enter Europe: I hope that got your blood pumping, because I danced around my bedroom to this video. We are talking 9 weeks people.  Give or take what baby decides.  But we are on the final countdown.  The home stretch.  The grand finale. And I am ready to EMBRACE and not rush these last few weeks.  Whiny pregnant women are annoying.  And I have had a rough go at it.  I've been all....."waaaaaa progesterone", "waaaaa placenta previa", "waaaaa stress/anxiety".  And it is about time that I embrace my lovely lady bumps and breath.  Because this thing is happening.  And everything, will likely be just fine.  No more placenta issues.  I am on track for a typical, end of pregnancy.  Baby looks good. So.  In my journey in deciding to embrace these final weeks, I have created myself a "bucket list/ to do list" Before Baby:  Around the House Clean and organize storage Cle...
