Big sister trinity

So trinity is pretty amazing, she wanted a sibling so bad for so many years. Every wish she made, on a star, in a fountain, on a dandelion puff, were all for a brother. Every prayer included that desire. Long after I gave up she hoped and believed.

I got pregnant when she was about 7 or so. We told her right away and when I miscarried it broke her. She was devastated. We didn't tell her till I was 12 weeks along with Caleb so as to avoid that this time. Here is the video, in case anyone missed it: (I AM NOT CURRENTLY PREGNANT, that was when we announced we were preggers w Caleb.

She was so excited. Can you tell? Trinity being speechless never happens.

Now she is a big sister. And she's amazing. She plays with him, cuddles him and dotes on him. And he loves the heck out of her. They are so so cute together

Today I was getting some pears ready to feed him and she really wanted to do it. So I let her. She did well and Caleb loved it.

New Journal

Welcome to my new journal.

The advent of Facebook has changed how I use social media quite a bit, and not in a good way. When used Livejournal more I could keep track of all my entries and look back years previous and remember what I was doing. Though I find it easier and more fun to Facebook, I miss the journaling aspect of Livejournal.

Also, I fail at posting much. And I miss it. What I do like to do, is post pictures. My iPhone has made this super easy.

I started a 365 once. I made it 6 months before I stopped. I really enjoyed it. I paid more attention in the moment of each day trying to find the picture that would document an entire day. It made me more present. I paid more attention to the little things. I can look back to my 365 and remember so much more because of how I documented it.

So I made this journal. A picture a day with commentary. So I'm journaling and posting a picture at the same time.

Feel free to follow/friend me, all posts will be public.

I make no promises that you will find this interesting. It's bound to be full of kids and food and just life in general. The point is that I will find it interesting and enjoyable. I do this for me, and all of you are along for the ride. You are welcome passengers.
