We began making easy foods on Sundays last summer when we became convicted that our practice of observing the Lord’s Day was no where near what we believed it should be. The Westminster Shorter Catechism does an amazing job of summarizing the teaching of Scripture and in regards to the 4th commandment. It explains how [...]

Really SP, really?
I thought I would try to give SP lasagna on a plate. Bad idea. I look over and she has the whole plate over her face trying to eat directly off of it. She tried to explain that she was just cutting out the unneeded middle man: hands- food directly from plate to mouth…almost.

Happy Birthday Sweet Girl!
Well, SP has been in our lives a year now, and it feels more like a few months. I don’t think it’s a secret that Brian and I aren’t huge fans of infants, so SP turning one is especially fun for us (not that we loved her any less, but now she’s getting cool and [...]

100 calorie snack
Brian’s watching what he eats, so I got him these fun little 100 calorie snacks! He opened them up and was a little disappointed! I thought they were cute…he thought they were deceiving and tried to show me that they looked bigger on the box. I hated to break it to him that they were [...]
