The Three Musketeers

As many of you already know, we are expecting our third baby and we couldn't be happier! We are expecting Daniel (middle name still to be announced) Styles on January 17, 2015. I am currently 24 weeks along and everything is going fairly well. I am planning to have my second at home birth and this time I promise to give all the details! I choose another at home birth because I had a great experience with my first at home birth and I honestly don't think I could go back to birthing at a hospital now that I had the opportunity to have been spoiled with a home birth. Yes we are expecting our 3rd boy. The news of a third boy coming into our family was a little shocking at first since we expected a little girl but nevertheless, we are thrilled and we are anxiously awaiting the day our little Daniel arrives.

Here is my baby bump at 20 weeks:)

Kindness is the answer

I read an article today about a study that was done by various social scientists at the University of Washington. The article states that SCIENCE has found that lasting marital relationships come down to kindness and generosity . The article caught my attention because of the simplicity of the behavior of being kind. I was expecting perhaps an article about how it is essential to have good chemistry, compatibility, shared interests... Things that I have heard from those around me that are apparently key for a successful marriage… Kindness though? I mean this is just a basic behavior that I try to teach my toddlers. My question at first was, how is kindness supposed to be an answer to a successful marriage? That's when I continued to read... The article starts out by repeating the well-known distressing statistic of how the majority of marriages fail, with only 3 in 10 surviving. Statisti...

Come, Follow Me

So I know it's been a while since I've written a post but I wanted to write a post about the new Come, Follow Me program. First I want to admit that I was a little daunted by the 2 hour block change for 2019, but this was mostly because I could feel the huge responsibility that was being placed upon us as parent's to make the home the center of gospel learning. Specially upon mothers. I actually started to think about this as early as during the relief society general conference. President Henry B. Eyring's actually stated Part of the Lord’s current sharing of knowledge relates to accelerating His pouring out eternal truth on the heads and into the hearts of His people. He has made clear that the daughters of Heavenly Father will play a primary role in that miraculous acceleration. One evidence of the miracle is His leading His living prophet to put far greater emphasis on gospel instruction in the home and within the family. You might ask, “How does that make f...

Before I start my blog post on how much I love subscribe and save I just want to apologize for not writing a new post in a really long time. I know I said I would try to write every week, but with the holidays, and my trip to Idaho, and the pregnancy and the children... yeah I just haven't had the time or the energy to do it. I hope everyone has had a wonderful holiday season so far. I had the opportunity to spend thanksgiving in Rexburg, Idaho with my sister, her family and my mom and it was fantastic. I decided to stay in Rexburg after thanksgiving break and I ended up staying there for like a month. Although I missed my husband a lot, I enjoyed being able to bond with my sister and the opportunity my boys had to bond with their cousins. Family time is always important.
