Are we playing a game of winners and losers?

By
Oh we definitely are. And I hardly win, but like this one time where I said no, we need to get Extra Virgin Olive Oil and you thought Pure was better? I'm going to start writing these moments down, because remember how you'll always be like "give me an example" and of course I never can remember. The curse of a bad memory; I cannot recall those few times where I was right against his adamantly stubborn self. Mr Smith does have to meet defeat every once in awhile.

But some fights I will never win. Like the dentist one: when I get upset that he put the skittle bag next to his bed and is popping in a handful right before shut eye. Seriously, this happened last night:

Kayla: "Whaaaaaaaaat was that noise!?!?!?"
Mr Smith: haha *shuffle sounds from the bag being placed out of sight*
Kayla: "Eric! You are going to bed! Your teeth are going to rot. ...I will never win this argument will I?
Mr Smith:  "Nope"
Kayla: "Ugh. this is so frustrating. I love good teeth and you're just going to get old and rotty (teeth) and I'm going to want to kiss you, but you'll have gross teeth and that makes me so sad."
Mr Smith: hahah
Kayla: "It isn't funny. You need to go to the dentist"
Mr Smith: "It's all a conspiracy. They are biased. They want your money."
Kayla: "I'm going to bed"
Mr Smith: *chomp chomp chomp*

There is a Plan for That

  Perhaps I'm ready to begin again, again. I struggle to add more words to the universe & I feel the same with photos. I let two of my passions die, both rather abruptly. My posts used to write themselves, I felt so guided in what God needed me to say. But this past year, my words have been removed. I moved from this blog over to Instagram as a better place to connect, but then everything became a distraction, and even the good distractions soon became too overwhelming. I can't possibly do every craft or recipe I've saved at this point. Unfortunately, I became painfully aware of my addictive attachment to my algorithm & lost much of my peace & productivity because of it. Satan knew, but I was too slow to recognize complacency & emptiness disguised as creative options & worldly debates. "The days are gone that you can be a quiet and comfortable Christian." I am definitely not raising quiet Christians, but perhaps we are still trying to be too co...

Our Baby Story - Alexis

By
Alexis Jane Smith 04.27.13 - 5:16PM 8lbs 15oz - 22.5 inches brown hair, undetermined (blue) eyes NB clothes are too tight You hate diaper changes You love being swaddled You are a piranha for food Your skin is perfect You sleep better with noises You came out sucking on your fingers But luckily you're not a scratcher Basically, we think you're perfect. First day at home photo Dear Lexi,  We couldn't handle holding you inside my stomach for another minute. We made an appointment when the contractions never came. Things were changing, but you were still 7 days late. Maybe we were eager parents, but now that we have you in our arms, we understand why, really understand. You're amazing . By the time we showed up at your 6 AM hospital appointment to be induced, I was already 3.5 cm dilated & 90% effaced & having mild contractions. So mild I thought I might have had high pain tolerance because I didn't feel th...

We're patiently waiting

Picture Mr Smith putting together the pack-n-play. He was so cute. Mostly when he had to read the directions. Do we have a child? Don't ask such silly questions. Hopefully it won't collect too much dust in 5.5 months. We're ready now . . . (but not really) It has a changing thing and a removable bassinet that vibrates.  I'm okay with not needing a changing table.  It will probably mean we won't get a crib for awhile too.  Next we need to hear from our baby/exercise friends a good car seat & jogging stroller (maybe ones that work together)... Any favorites? Then a blanket . . . Then a breast pump . . . Then a diaper bag. . .  Then lots of diapers, toys & cute clothes.  And even a mobile.  Then they get older and there's even more things. Mr Smith is just so thrilled. I'd love to hear about any products that you recommend/absolutely love having. Here is one thing you can do to annoy Mr Smith: go ...
