Over the past year or so, I have been journaling in various places. 

I journal in my Bible, in a study journal, and a prayer journal. 

Three different places? Yes, three different places. 

There is a couple of reasons for that, but it began with Bible journaling.

I wanted to document what I am studying in my Bible, but sometimes, the lessons would be too long, and I needed a place to organize my thoughts. 

A few weeks ago, I went on a mission looking for new lunches to make for Blakeleigh and Amila, they love peanut butter and jelly “sam-a-whiches”, but let’s face it, it was time to change it up some!

So, naturally, Pinterest was my go to search board.

Soooo many ideas came up. Some easy. Some had way too many steps, some had way to much stuff the girls wouldn’t eat.

I found these pizza roll ups on The KitchenCritic blog (click to see her full recipe), and definitely wrote it down to try.

My whole house loves these!

It is really difficult to believe that Christmas is already here! I feel like it was just Christmas last year.

​Okay, that’s not true! 2019 has been long, I mean the month of January lasted 67 days on its own. I think that was a meme!

None the less, there has been so much growth in our lives, from personal to our kids growing up. I looked at a picture of my two and I instantly had that feeling that some moms get, “My babies aren’t babies anymore!”.

Ughh.

I know, it’s part of life. Just a great remember to soak up everything you can and #makethememory !

If your like me, you have been pondering what to get your sweet, but spoiled babies! So, I have compiled a list of the best options we have found!

How many times have you felt fear that things would not come together?

We worry about whether we are going to make ends meet financially. We worry about if our kids will get into the school we want. We worry we won't ever get a better paying or better job.

We worry. 

Sometimes, we may even feel like God is not listening, or that He does not care, or worse- that He doesn't even know who we are!

We have all felt that way. 

I recently read a little into the book of Job. The study I was in, was talking about giving our fear and worry over our kids and household to God; trading them for prayer, freedom and peace of knowing that all of these things are in the handiwork of God.
​
This has been something I struggle with personally, more so when Amila was born.

My husband and I have 3 children combined and I don’t care what anyone says, kids can eat. 

And eat

And eat. 

No matter how resourceful you are, sometimes it takes all you can pull together funds to cover the grocery bill. Whether you are pulling from child support, government assistance, maybe your a coupon queen, or your groceries may come completely out of pocket; either way, when you have multiple children in the house, a grocery bill can be painful on our checking accounts! 

Y'all, my oldest, my "BB", my "momma's girl", is turning three next week. Thankfully, we did not have much of the terrible two's stuff, but I am paying for it now. I mean full on.

B is a lot like me, she is quiet and laid back (I try to be!), until she gets comfortable around you, then she will talk your ears off, sing "Elsa" at the top of her lungs in a nice restaurant, and tell you all about her "daddy terds". And, yes, that is a thing.
