Pettus Pie: October 2014
http://pettuspie.blogspot.com/2014_10_01_archive.html
Thursday, October 23, 2014. Winners and Losers in Two of Life's Little Contests. It has occurred to me. That I never revealed the winner of the Great Sayid Mystery of 2012. More than two-thirds of our guessers picked "boy," so we had several front runners early on. We couldn't discover our winner, though, until a couple months after Emmett's birth, when his murky black eyes turned a definitive brown. His anticipation and excitement peaked when I finished and revealed that the winner was . Yes the car was...

Brown's Paper Bag: July 2015
http://brownspaperbag.blogspot.com/2015_07_01_archive.html
The shenanigans Husband and I get into, the pictures to prove it, and the friends and family to help us along the way. Tuesday, July 21, 2015. Go ahead and pick two names, one for your baby, and one for that first postpartum poop.". Six days after having given birth to Hugo, one thing was left unfinished. Disclaimer 1: This is a story of relieving postpartum constipation. Disclaimer 2: This story is 99% true, and the 1% that's not is added so the story makes sense. Saturday, June 27. Fifteen minutes afte...

Tree meets Sea: October 2011
http://marinaraarbor.blogspot.com/2011_10_01_archive.html
Old ramshackle ideas fluttering about an otherwise empty vessel, trying to avoid the cobwebs. Monday, October 24, 2011. Some People are Meant to Be Together. Some people are just meant to be together. We are two of them. We met through a twisted, rocky and sometimes miserable route, but one that prepared us for a life together. Some people are being prepared even as children for each other. Never have I ever regretted our decision and commitment to be together for the rest of our lives. Sometimes it is h...

Bradatude: November 2010
http://bradatude.blogspot.com/2010_11_01_archive.html
A place to express all the unsolicited comments that never seem to find the right venue for sharing. Friday, November 5, 2010. Absolutely. God is in this, I know He is. There are no words. I know that. Even though I do not have a daughter, I tried to try on Matt's grief, if that is even possible. The heaviness of its burden swallowed me whole with no respite in sight. Of course I want to be there for Matt, his wife Elizabeth, and son Jacob, through this. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Pettus Pie: Gus Busts 7
http://pettuspie.blogspot.com/2015/08/gus-busts-7.html
Saturday, August 8, 2015. The day we took Gus's borrowed "rock-and-play" bassinet back to Aunt Rebecca. It was no longer safe to put him in since he was obviously trying to assert his dominance over it. Gus is 7 months. This was the age that I distinctly remember ( for Emmett. In which the baby calendar was crammed with entries boasting firsts — foods, experiences, and accomplishments. These are fine times. This photo was taken with plenty of natural light, and I did not alter the color balance at all.

Lynne, Inc.: Training or Trying?
http://honeypadoodle.blogspot.com/2008/02/training-or-trying.html
Postings from the desk of the happiest pastor's wife on the planet. Tuesday, February 19, 2008. A friend of mine wanted a book that would help her with some challenges that she faces in her marriage. So I asked Counselor Extraordinaire Jayne Clark (on staff with CCEF for 17 years) for a recommendation, and she suggested: How to Act Right When Your Spouse Acts Wrong, by Leslie Vernick. How can my friend take it home? Talk about a firestarter! What are you reading? Even though I don't have a spouse who doe...

Pettus Pie: This Is What One Year Looks Like
http://pettuspie.blogspot.com/2015/04/this-is-what-one-year-looks-like.html
Tuesday, April 28, 2015. This Is What One Year Looks Like. This is what one year looks like . It's beautiful. One year of existence to our Gus! He, of course, has spent most of the year under wraps, but it's amazing to think about how he's been with us for an entire 365 days now. And it's so strange to contrast my two April 28s . the one of 2014 and this one of 2015. On our red deck, playing YouTube hymns. Birthdays are great for mothers. With Emmett, I have spent his birthdays recounting the joy of ...

Pettus Pie: August 2014
http://pettuspie.blogspot.com/2014_08_01_archive.html
Thursday, August 21, 2014. Another Point for Motherly Intuition. Who guessed Petrie to be a boy! And congrats to Wade, who is even now envisioning all the yard work our two boys will accomplish for him. When we saw the ultrasound, we both knew instantly that we were looking at our new son's special places, and we exclaimed in delight. I hadn't an ounce of regret or sadness, like I thought I might (I wanted a boy, but I was afraid that no matter what gender Petrie turned out to be, I might be sad too).

Pettus Pie: May 2014
http://pettuspie.blogspot.com/2014_05_01_archive.html
Wednesday, May 28, 2014. Only an hour or so old and already smiling. And already, in his first few days of life, it seems George Alexander has decided to make things easier on Becca. For one thing, he was only. Nine days late (as opposed to Anne Marie, who was 14 days late! Here's a picture of Rebecca, George, Anne Marie and Emmett in the pool on the day she birthed George:. Like his sister (facing up instead of facing down, which is ideal). How considerate of him. Than Dr. D. Photo credit to Amy. With s...
