We went to the Tuttle's tonight and I snagged this book.  Once in a while I still want sweets, not much though.  When I do have them I want them to be healthy.

Jadon and I went grocery shopping at the gleaners store.  We wiped out their inventory of almond milk (we bought about 60).  They are SO cheap here.  Now we'll be stocked up for a few months.

This afternoon the girls and I went to a midwife appointment.  I'm still searching for the right one.  I think I found her.  The girl love her already.  She's older, been practicing for 36 years and had 8 homebirths back in the 60's and 70's.  She's super healthy and expects me to be too.  I'm very excited to have found her.  We tried to listen to the baby's heartbeat, but couldn't get it yet )o=  Hopefully in a couple of weeks we'll be able to hear it.

Today a package came from Grandma Joy.  The kids were SO excited!  I was too.  My mom gave me SUCH a sweet, thoughtful, creative and fun gift!  She put a pair of earrings in each of these pretty little numbered bags.  There are 4th of July earrings, Valentines earrings, bear earrings, wood earrings, flower earrings, Texas shaped earrings, dangling sparkly earrings and on an on.  So much fun!

I finally decided it was time to have Jadon's hair cut short.  He looks so grown up now.  Such a handsome boy!

Day 247


February 9th, 2012
Thursday
This is our stinky, mouldy refrigerator.  It's been sitting empty in the laundry room for a few months now.  We thought it was broken beyond repair, but found out this week, it only needs a $60 part (Paul's job) and my job is to (gag) clean it out.  Then we'll have 4 refrigerators to fill with food for our continually hungry children. 

Day 246

The local Value Village is going out of business and selling everything for 50% off.  We of course took advantage of that great sale!

Day 245

Tuesday
We are ready to move so I started packing this week.  Of couse, we don't have anywhere to go yet.  We are ready though.  One of my favorite quotes is by Gordon B. Hinkley "I believe if we keep the commanments of God He will open a way even when there appears to be no way."  That's what we are holding on to, that promise.

Day 244

Day 242

I have 50 lbs of onion to process.  Jadon is helping me.  I tied a bandanna around my face hoping to lesson the effect of the onions fumes, Jadon put bunches of cloth napkins on his head hoping to do the same.

Day 241
