"My dream house"

"My dream house would be just a two story house, but I would have a basement for a playroom. It would be made of brick. I would have a pool with a slide. 5 acres for all my pets. 5 puppies, 2 dogs, 6 kittens, 2 cats. A large river in the back with a bridge over it. I'd have a basket ball court, tennis court, and a golf course, for all my 4 kids. 3 bathrooms and 6 bedrooms. My loving husband would be rich and I'd stay home with my kids. Oh and each pet would have their own house and play with toys. In the house I'd have two hamsters and 1 bird also outside I'd have one bunny."

...and then I married Mr Smith

"Three things I hate the most"

"The first thing I hate is when my brother annoys me. He hits and makes unesusary noises.
The other thing I hate is the Spice Girls. They wear sick clothes and are nasty.
The last thing I hate is brocolie. Brocolie tastes bad and looks nasty. 
These three things are some of the things I hate most. eh!"

"Tell me what you know about Martin Luther King Jr. Why do you think people admired him so much?"

I do not know much about Martin Luther King Jr. I do know that he was black and famous. He helped many people, mostly black or African American because then the black were separate from the white in everything, like schools and waterfountains. He tried to help the African Americans be able to have religious freedom from the white because the white made them slaves. That is why people admired him to much."

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

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 ...
