Baby Kaake week 21 - Gender Update;)

Yesterday at 3:45 was the time of my ultrasound appointment. I was going crazy just waiting for it. The time finally came and Allysha and I headed off to the office. It was there we found out little baby Kaake is 13 oz, very healthy with more movement than they've seen in awhile (just like Jon) and guess what, It's a boy!!!! We are so super excited. Now we can call our dear sweet baby by it's name. It's so cute to hear Jon say "baby bruder Joshua". Lyshie wanted a girl pretty bad like her father and I, but her father and I got over it quick. It's just something about seeing a healthy baby. I LOVE it! Lyshie is doing better and realizing this is what God has for us. I just can't tell you how happy I am with the news. We went to Salvation Army today to try to find a few summer outfits for this little guy in size 0-3 months since Jon was born in the winter and Joshua should be here sometime in August. The ultrasound pictures are a little fuzzy, but I hope you can see them well enough. One is of the head, belly and legs coming up around the belly making the belly look huge. lol. The next picture is of his "manhood". You can see where it is because there is a little star there beside it. Lyshie took the picture of me getting ready to walk out the door to the appointment. Welcome to the family, little Joshua David:)

My Adult Tonsillectomy Story

Post Surgery as soon as I arrived home. For anyone who really knows me, I have always been completely terrified of surgery. So when I went to an ENT and he said I needed a tonsillectomy I was not very happy. I found out in either January or February and I couldn't make my appointment till the end of June because that's when my husband could get off work to help out. I wrote this so I could hopefully help someone going through the same thing. Without further ado, here goes. Week Before Surgery: This is when I started purchasing everything I had seen online that might be helpful. I also started setting up an area on the main floor where I could be inclined for sleeping and have everything at my finger tips. At the bottom of this post I will have a list of items that I personally found helpful for my recovery. I also have food allergies and tried to stay away from them as much as possible. So my food options may seem different than ma...

Sex Education For Girls From a Christian Perspective

I'm making out my daughters scholastic plan for the next 6 years. Crazy...maybe! Anyway, this coming year she will be entering 7th grade - 7th grade! I was trying to remember what I took in school during 7th grade. One of those classes was health/sex ed. I remember what sex-ed class was like While my parents taught me abstinence, the school was teaching something else as well as exposing us to many contraceptives as well as a lifestyle contradictive to what my parents were trying to teach at home. I heard this from the class and students much more because that's the environment I was in. My goal here is to still be vigilant on teaching my children health education/sex education from a biblical perspective. Coming into puberty is something that we are going to celebrate in this family. It means that our son/daughter is making the shift into adulthood. We want our children to be prepared for what's coming. For instance, after r...
