A couple of you in particular have been wondering what the heck is happening at the Hills. Our fertility journey has been anything but private, and yet sometimes it feels weird to type up certain words here on the ‘ol blog. Some still even approach me, wondering if their questions are too invasive. They’re not. … Continue reading »

The Crib Shrine
Blake has determined, all on his own, that he would like to sleep in the “blue room”. The blue room is currently our guest room, with a queen size bed in it. He currently sleeps in his crib, which has been converted to a toddler bed. It’s really too small for him. We’ve had intentions, … Continue reading »
God is Great, God is good…
…Let us thank Him for our food. By His hands, we are fed, thank you God for daily bread. Amen. This is the prayer we taught Blake about a year ago as our “dinner prayer”. And quite typically, my little lover of routine asks to do it before every meal. If we forget, he will remind … Continue reading »
Come and sit a spell…
That’s how my Grandma used to say it. And what I mean is, this could take a while. A long time ago, I wrote a blog discussing my faith. It was slightly controversial, and prompted some interesting comments from a guy I respect. I spent some time writing up my responses. And then I filed … Continue reading »
The Wiggles
You can see here that I constantly compare my relationship with God to my relationship with my own child. If he was a God who could get tired, I would probably exhaust him. One thing I have learned by embracing my position as God’s child, is that He strongly desires time with me. I can … Continue reading »
Wheezy B
Blake got sick. Again. This time it was pretty bad. He was admitted to the hospital for 2 days while we struggled with high fevers, low oxygen levels, wheezing, and coughing. We got to go home today, with many diagnoses written on his discharge sheet. They include the flu, RSV, and bronchiolitis. He really scared … Continue reading »
All I want for Christmas is YOU

On this, your 33rd birthday, I would like to tell you again how grateful I am to have you as my husband and Blake’s … Continue reading »
Joy to the World!
Hey, what’s that shiny thing? Look over there? That thing! This is me trying to distract you from the fact that I miss the very first (gasp) day of the December Blog Challenge. If I could figure out how to adjust the clock on my blog, I would totally do it to try to trick … Continue reading »
What happened to my baby??
Because this cannot be the baby I gave birth to 2 short years ago. This child wears 4T clothes, size 9 shoes, size 7 diapers. No, this can’t be my baby. He’s entirely too big. That mark on his forehead that turns red and angry when he’s excited will always remind me of the torment … Continue reading »
More Super Excitement
Things are CA-RAY-ZEEEEEE. Mom’s back in the hospital. Let’s give a big fat BOO for that. Congestive heart failure. You can read about that here, cause I can’t explain it in 2 places. I’m tired, but God never fails to provide me with strength and perspective in situations like these. I met the most awesome … Continue reading »
