Wellness Checks









Today was the kids' wellness checkup for 3 years and 6 months.  Owen is now 20lbs 11oz and 27.25 inches long.  We got the green light to start oatmeal for him and slowly add other things into his diet.  He is right on par with his milestones and doing great.  Poor guy does have a yest infection due to the antibiotics he was on a few weeks ago.  But other than that, he is happy and healthy.

Haley girl is now 36 lbs and 40.75 inches.  She recently shot up a few inches and is now in the 99th percentile for her height!!  Looks like she may end up being tall like her ma'ma.  I was secretly super excited about this.  She now LOVES Dr. J which is refreshing.  When she was younger, doctor visits were not always easy.  Thank you Doc McStuffins.

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...
