You HAVE to put this on your calendar!!

New show on Discovery Health on the 21st of Oct. I will be recording this on the DVR!!! Check it out here.... Freebirthing Show... Do NOT roll your eyes, you really should check it out! Its an awesome experience and will be doing it with the rest of my babies(if i have more)...

I Believe.....

That birth is inherently safe. The same loving, intelligent consciousness (All That Is, Goddess, God, Nature) that knows how to grow an egg and a sperm into a human being, knows how to get it out. Our job is simply to relax and trust. Birth is not a function of the conscious mind any more than digestion is.

I Believe.....

That the problems women sometimes encounter in birth can be traced to three main causes:

    Poverty - lack of food and poor living conditions
    Outside interference
    - doctors and sometimes midwives poking, prodding, testing, drugging, cutting, etc.
    Inside interference - primarily fear which triggers the fight/flight response and shuts down labor, but also shame and guilt
When these factors are eliminated, most women can give birth easily, either alone or with friends and family.


I Believe.....

That our bodies and our babies are responsive to our thoughts. The best way to ensure a good pregnancy and birth is to think positively, face and overcome our fears, and believe in our own abilities.

Toughy...

If a Christian votes for Obama, does that mean they automatically become pro-choice??

In my opinion, YES!!

According to my very brief research, Obama is an advocate for the roe vs. wade case. Another thing I found.. is... Obama IS pro-choice, read it here.. This is probably already out in the known, as I don't watch anything on tv or research about the candidates, so I wanted to know for sure! Those poor babies that has to go thru that! They were created for a REASON!! Anyone ever heard of ADOPTION over abortion!?

I cant wait!

Since I have to wait for the movie, Fireproof, to come out on DVD instead of the theater, due to no subtitles or captions.. Why do they do this!? So anyway, i can at least read a book til I patiently wait for the movie to come out(end of January?).. I'm NOT a movie person but I sure cant wait to see this one! This book is... The Love Dare.. Check it out!!

100th post!!!

I cant even remember when i started this blog site...?? I'll have to look.. But i added a new application on my blog site. Its called... Feedjit(I think thats right!) It tracks the locations that views my blog but i noticed some repeated same towns/states and i have no clue who it is! I'm happy that there's people enjoying(i hope) my postings. I hope that I am helping others by viewing my sites on the right column of my page instead of offending some. If it offends you, not comfortable with it, or not open-minded about it, do not read it. I dont want to be judged at all by my lifestyle, although i do get this but I pray that those particular people will become open minded and supportive/respectful of our lifestyle/choices. I feel like those ppl that are this way, they feel... threatened(?), not wanting a reality check(?) or not wanting to change their ways? It really isnt that hard of a change, its all educated changes.. and for the best!
On a different note, I made more diaper patterns last night to try out!! I cant wait to get started on making diapers! Also ordered stuff online that i need to make these diapers differently. I had about 7 people email me about the diapers I posted on craigslist and they want to see pictures of the ones i will be making, so this is potential business waiting to happen.. :) I'm excited!! I'm excited to be able to have my OWN money in my pocket, not having to ask Alex for money and wanting to help Alex out with the bills too as well.. I'm praying we get that land!!! Sounds like we will be putting the house on the market as soon as we finish up our work around here. Which shouldnt be that bad.. just paint the rooms that havent been painted yet, install shelves in bathroom "closet" and new walls in garage.. Even if we dont get the land, we are still wanting out of here.. Dont think we are trying to sell this house to get that land..I cant wait!! Again, I'm praying this house sells quick but we'll see!! I just hope theres someone out there looking for a small house or wanting to downsize this house. We need your prayers!

Land....

We went to go see the land site yesterday... I WANT IT!! The WHOLE 5.5 acres will be GREAT with me.. Even Alex wants it all, current owner is willing to split into 2 acres.. Pray for us please!! I told Alex... lets put the house on the market and rent a bigger house and split rent $$ with my dad, the duplex he lives in is transferring to a new owner and not really wanting to sign a lease with new owners, he is only home 2 weeks out of the month so its not really going to a big deal sharing a house with him, he'll just need a place to stay when he's home from business trips and a place for his stuff.. I think we will consider renting a house(its cheaper than our current house payment and helps us save $$ to build someday) after this house is sold.. I'm going to be praying about this and let God lead us where we should be going/doing..... I hope His plan is the plan I have in mind.. ;) we'll see!!!

Stuck...

I just don't know what to do........ this sucks! We're stuck in this small house not knowing what to do from here. We know we want to be out of this house but where to!? do we buy a bigger house or should we go ahead and put an offer on the land that I would like to be located at and build after saving up for a few years, but that does mean staying here til we can save up.. Alex seems to be about ready to lose his patience with this house... which is weird b/c he is only here half the time I'm here.. You'd think it'd be the other way around huh? Its been going ok so far in this house.. we do want more space.. I just need to get a shelf system for around the house to make it less stressful in here.. For example, this computer room, i have a big box of books in here waiting for SOMEONE to build me a bookcase... that someone is my hubby.. I asked for a bookcase for mothers day.. and we have like 6 totes of toys on floor that could use a shelf... Wall shelfs would be nice too for random stuff.. I'd love to have a room just for hobby stuff and computer room... I know how I want my future home to be built(picture above with a few changes to make, I'll have to hire my bro-in-law for that!) I'm just waiting for the right timing to come.. Sooo anyone with good advice? stay here and buy land and save or just move on to a bigger house? The perfect thing would be... move to a bigger house AND buy that land and save.. but thats not really possible right now.. What i was i even thinking in the first place to get a small house when i've always wanted 4 kids!?!?! STUPID!! Obviously i was in a hurry to move in our own house.. Now i'm sorry that I did that...... Hope someone learns a lesson from me!
