a blog about faith, family, food, & more written by a wife and stay at home mom of five
Last week we adopted a sweet little kitten! He is very gentle with the girls, yet playful and fun. He loves to sleep in our laps (mine and Tad’s). We love his markings and think he looks like a wild cat! Glad that he has joined our family!! We’re calling him Asher (it means “happy”).
Thanks for your prayers that my glucose test would go well! My results came back and I do not have gestational diabetes. I’m thankful!
This has been a better week physically, but I’ve also gotten more rest than usual. I really feel so much better at the end of the day if I’ve taken the time to rest in the afternoons (even just reading for a little bit). I’m going to keep trying to make an effort to do that!
Tad and I decided on a name (first and middle) we both love. Of course we always wait to share that until the actual birth, so you’ll have to wait another 12-13 weeks. 🙂 (Yes, I’m already planning on going “past-term.”)
I’ve been doing some back exercises that have helped my back feel better. If anyone’s interested in learning about those, maybe I’ll do a post.
I feel like we have a lot to prepare before Baby Punkin’ arrives! (Though not as much this time as the first two babies… no major room re-dos.) Pray for us as we get the house in order and stockpile freezer meals.
This week I’m spending some time with my out-of-state family, so I won’t be blogging much (or at all). You can catch me on Instagram in the meantime!
Have a great week!
