Mommy Friends

I have to say that one of the most important things I ever did was start a mom's group that would work for me. I tried for over a year to find a group and connect with women that had kids in my area but for some reason I just couldn't. Every time I got together with different groups I always left feeling like I didn't fit in. I love being at home and enjoyed playing with Rex and all the time we had together, I love my husband and try my hardest not to complain about him because he is great and works hard to provide for us and we actually agree on most of our parenting so it makes that easy, and I plan homeschooling Rex because our school system is not the best and I am willing to take on the extra work that it will take for him to have a great education. So when I thought about it and prayed about it God told me that I needed to surround myself with like minded, God loving women. So I started a Faith centered mom's group that can share their struggles, hopes, happiness, and every other thing that us mom's go though.
It was the best thing that I could have ever done (thanks God for the push to do it)! I love getting together with this group of ladies at least once a week sometimes as many as four and sharing our lives together. We are all at different points in our lives and that makes it even better because we can learn from one another too. I love having a Bible study with them as well. I feel like I can really share what is on my heart and ask for prayer when needed. I'm learning so many things through this group that God is leading. I have to say if there is one thing that I could suggest to every mommy out there it would be to find like minded mommy's in your area that you can get together with regularly. It has been life changing to have a support system around me and people that I can call friends. To all of you ladies I have a special place in my heart for all of you because you make my life better just being able to know each of you!

Day 2 of 31 Day to Clean

So I have told you the other day that I'm going to start 31 Days to Clean by Sara Mae. (For that post go to 31 days to clean post). So I'm finally on day 2 after several days in between. This will be the way it is for me because not everyday I will be able to tackle a big task, like day number 2, but I did it today and that is what counts. So what was day 2...clean the refrigerator and freezer (at least the Martha part) so that's what I did. I cleaned the refrigerator not that long ago but I figured I would just do it again and I'm glad. Just after about 2 months (maybe 3) it really needed cleaned again and I'm really happy that it looks really nice and I can find all the stuff that is in there again. I think that I'm going to put this on my To Do list every other month. I think that would be really helpful and that way it stays clean. I'm just going to put it in my day planner and when I have some free time on day I will do it that month. Sounds like a pl...

Baby Bumpdate: Week 35

35 Weeks! That means only 5 left!!!! Holy cow!!! I think I'm starting to freak out just a little!!! How far along? 35 Weeks! Yea! How big is baby?  He's about 18 inches and just over 5 pounds. Weight gain? I gained a pound last week. Maternity Clothes?  Of course. I'm living in tanks right now because of the heat. Just wish I had more shorts to wear. Stretch Marks?  Nothing new. Just the ones from before and Monkey. Sleep? With this cold I'm not sleeping much. I'm getting a little better and able to sleep about 4 to 6 hours at night and then at nap time I'm able to get 1 or 2 more hours of sleep. However, I'm still exhausted especially because of the heat. It just drains all my energy. Even when I'm sitting in the shade under a fan. Of course it's only June so I'm not sure how this heat thing will effect me in July :/ Best Moment this Week?  Monkey kissing my belly before he went down for a nap. It was so cute. He ...

Media Monday: How it affects my child

Media is neither good or bad. Last week I talked about media in our marriage and a little bit about our family and media but today is all about Rex and media. Rex loves cartoons! Right now he happens to be watching Veggie Tales while eating lunch. This is not a normal thing at all. I can't remember the last time he was eating while watching TV. Today we had a crazy time and he asked to watch a movie and I didn't have a problem with it. Plus it's Veggie Tales.  We have a limit (during mommy in charge time) that he is only allowed to watch one movie/TV show each day and some days we don't watch anything. When daddy gets home things change and the TV is on within minutes of being home. Rex normally doesn't care that the TV is on because of our daily activities. He plays or helps me cook unless daddy is watching adult cartoons then he is more interested.  This past winter I found us watching more TV than I planned ever to let my children watch. So once it start...
