A Peek At Our Life

August 30, 2008

Updates

The twins have arrived! Two new beautiful girls now make the tally six girls and three boys... everyone is thrilled!

The Buzz Around Me

Babies are sleeping on my lap, and the rest of the family is working on gutting the bus.

Kitchen Happenings

We're enjoying having all those freezer meals we stocked up on. A frozen casserole and some salad from the garden, and dinner is done. Whew.

In Our Schoolroom

The children are enjoying exploring a new Hebrew computer curriculum. I think the four-year-old knows more than anyone so far.

The Garden View

Brayden Waller planted some beets and collards and greens for me when they were here a couple of weeks ago... they will make a nice fall garden.

In The Sewing Room

I got that new bedspread and bedskirt made to welcome the babies. Now I have to alter some wool diaper covers before the case of disposables I bought runs out.

Home-keeping Agenda

Things are running pretty smoothly, but we're not doing any extra anytime soon.

Simple Joys

That smell of newborn babies. I just can't stop kissing them and breathing in that wonderful scent... none of us can.

Preparing for Twins

I add this link below only because local folks have asked. These are the things that we will be trying to buy before the babies arrive. So, while matching outfits are fun, these things are the priorities for us. (P.S. Anyone who knows me in real life knows that used items are perfectly OK... well...just not the diaper liners. *grin*) I will remove stuff that we have already gotten.

My 2008 Goals

Well...my hopes anyway


~Deliver two healthy new babies safely and not too early.

~Switch to cloth everything...napkins, wipes, diapers, etc.
**Napkins, diapers & wipes done!

~Switch to non-electric kitchen appliances...grain mill, blender, food processor, etc.
**Got the grain mill with the money I made from selling junk stuff on eBay!**

~Learn how to make cold-process soap
**I did it! I really did it! I made Rosemary shampoo bars, Lemon-Calendula soap bars and Spearmint-Peppermint-Tea Tree soap bars. It smells so good in my closet where they are curing!**

~Keep a hand-written journal

~Begin putting our family photos into scrapbooks

~Maintain a "no backlog" policy with my sewing projects

~Purposefully put together an emergency plan and kit for our family with batteries, radio, canned food, clothes, etc. and have it packed and ready to *go*

~Begin building traditions, recipe files, scrapbooks, etc. for our family's celebrations of the Biblical feasts: Passover, Unleavened Bread, Firstfruits, Pentecost, Trumpets, Day of Atonement, and Tabernacles

~Read some fiction for a change!

Restoring The Early Church ~ Lesson 12

Now that the holidays are over with all the visiting, parties and busyness, I for one am looking forward to settling in to a long winter’s study. We are two lessons away from moving into Section Two - which is the part of this study that shocked me at first, but led to many “Aha!” moments as I started seeing the pieces of a large and troubling puzzle fall into place.

This lesson and the next are not-too-long, so I will post them in fairly quick succession, so that we may move on to Section Two all the sooner.
