Yay me! I just started selling books on Amazon, and so can you.. It’s easy! I have a ka-jillion books that I’m never going to read again. So, I’m slowly building a stack of them (and maybe some other used stuff…) so I can make a bit of profit! If you have books you don’t Read More
Well, since Caleb was born I’ve been a bit self-conscious of my weight. I put on about 10 pounds before I got pregnant (called trying to finish a master’s degree while working full time). I figured I’d lose it all this summer by playing volleyball and surfing. But, God had other plans. Instead, I added Read More
Well, out of curiosity, I dug out my old photo box and scanned in a few pictures of me as a baby. I’m not sure what age I was in these pictures, but Josh swears he’s seen some of these looks come from Caleb. One thing’s for sure though, I sure loved to eat blankets.
The picture on the left is of Josh when he was 3 months old. The picture on the right is of Caleb at 8 weeks old. It’s fun to compare the two! I’m trying to see if I can find some pictures of me that would compare to some of our new Flickr photos. It’d Read More
Some of you may remember the work injury I had this summer when I sliced my finger on a table saw in the wood shop. Something funny happened as a result of this back in August that was hilarious and I forgot to blog it then, so here goes! I showed up to Cupertino Occupational Read More
Josh and I have been practicing attachment parenting techniques, and have therefore been slinging Caleb a lot. It’s been pretty good so far and we are both enjoying getting to know our son at such close range. Now, my sling is getting too tight for Caleb and I, so I am in the market for Read More
It’s been interesting to see how I adapt from crazy-busy Stephanie to Mommy Stephanie. While teaching art full time, crazy-busy Stephanie finished her master’s degree, National Board Certification, several art classes, CLAD credential, BTSA program (don’t ask), and California teaching credential in an amazing four years. She also took on many side gigs such as Read More
So, I’ve watched half of the first season of Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Many of my friends have watched and loved the show, so I figured I’d give it a shot. Problem is, I’m not really into it. Occasionally there is a funny moment, or some neat acrobatics. Apart from that, I’m just not getting Read More
I LOVE BEING A MOM! Seriously, look at that baby. He’s so easy to love! Even when crying or peeing on me or his new favorite – spitting up on Mommy after she just showered and put on clean clothes. The more time I spend with him, the more I learn that he has different Read More
Today was Caleb’s first day at church. It was so joyful to walk in with him and see the faces of our church family light up with joy. Many of these people have been praying for us for years, so I just felt blessed beyond belief to be holding God’s provision in my hands. I Read More
