Facebook free
I don't know if anyone has noticed, but I have decided to deactivate my facebook account for awhile. It's been really overwhelming for me to see things, hear certain things...and I just feel like the devil is using facebook to steal my joy. I'm tired of people judging me, I'm tired of seeing stuff that irritates me. I'm going to take this time to enjoy my sweet family. I'm not sure when I'll go back, but it's going to be a while. I just need to get away.
New blog. Again.
I finally am going to get back to blogging. Tumblr wasn't as much fun as this is, so I'm going to stick with this. So much has been going on in our lives with Emma and I feel like I should be documenting all of this!
Emma will be five months old on June 21. This makes me happy, sad, excited...I can't believe she's almost half a year old! She has really been a blessing to all of us. She is the most beautiful, amazing little girl (baby even...) that God could have ever created. I have prayed for Emma a long time. I have wanted a baby for years, and now I have the best that God could ever give a person.
Emma loves to eat! We tried rice cereal a few weeks and she hated the taste. Who would like rice cereal, anyway? We started green beans last week and she loved them! She even grabs my hand to shove the spoon in her mouth. She's a little piglet :) She makes the cutest noises when she eats, too. She loves to put her hands in her mouth and then in her hair, ears, nose, all over mommy...so that means green beans everywhere and lots of baths! We tried carrots for the first time tonight and they were a hit. The carrots stained her little cheeks orange for a while...haha :)
So, since becoming a mom 4 and a half months ago, I've gotten a lot of people asking about when the next one will arrive! People don't let up, do they? My response to that is, "oh, not for a while..." But I also said after we got married, that we would wait two years. Obviously, that did not happen. So who knows. But just to clear the air...it won't be soon. Sorry! Give me a chance to breath before you all plan my next child. Plus, I don't think I'm brave enough to endure all the comments and remarks I got during my pregnancy. That will never change, though. I would LOVE to have a baby close in age to Emma, but we will see what God wants. :) I do see all my friends getting pregnant again and I won't lie, it makes me want another one already. I have had comments from people who would frown upon that, but who cares- children are a blessing from God. Now I'm going to get off my soap box...
It's been a rough week for all 3 of us. We got back from vacation on Monday. Daniel worked Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday night. I worked Saturday. Daniel and I haven't "seen" each other much. I'll be glad when it gets back to normal in a couple of weeks. It's been a little rough on Emma too. A lot of change that disrupts her routine is not good for her!
This post is beyond long, so I'll be going now :)
