There Is A Little Something On Your Face... - Throwback Thursday #2

To see my other Throwback Thursdays click here.

Baby Sister is adorable, my outfit on the other hand is incredibly embarrassing...  To say nothing of the baby vomit all over my face.

This picture is of my little sister Noelle and me.  This was from sometime in 1996.

I loved playing with my baby sister.  I am 9 years older than her, so I was able to be more interactive with her as a baby than I had been with my other younger siblings.  So I was holding her up in the air over my head, playing "airplane".  The following conversation (or something quite like it) occurred between my mom and I.

Mom: Rachel, she just ate, you probably shouldn't do that.
Rachel: No, she burped she will be fine.
Mom: It really isn't a good idea.
Rachel: But she is having so much fun.
*Noelle proceeds to spit up all over Rachel's face*
Rachel: AHHHHHHH!  MOM I NEED A TOWEL!
*Mom runs and grabs a camera*
*click*
Mom: I told you not to do that after she ate.

One of the best examples ever of "Mommy Knows Best"

Did you have a time where you really should have just listened to you mother?  Or a time when you just had to grab a camera?

  3. This is just so perfect to highlight what we were talking about in our family yesterday. When Our twins were babies, I used to carry them at the same time, one arm around each of their tummy, and I was warned that they way I held them may make someone spit-up! Well, it didn't just happen once, but twice. I guess am arm tightly over the stomach is a no-no!! "Look out!"
    Don't worry~ everyone dressed like that when they were 9! Very cute! Have an amazing day, Rachel :)

Breastfeeding An Adopted Child - The Tenth Day of Christmas

Today we are hearing from Teglene.  Her story is pretty long, but trust me, it is totally worth reading through!  She also has a great blog, called The Breastfeeding Mother . I always knew I wanted to breastfeed my children. I couldn ’t imagine doing it any differently. I was lucky enough to give birth to two beautiful boys and I enjoyed breastfeeding them both. Not that it was easy or without struggle, but it was what I wanted to do and loved doing it. In fact, I liked it so much, and felt so passionate about breastfeeding that I became a La Leche League Leader, so that I could help other breastfeeding moms. I really took to the idea of “Mothering through breastfeeding”. It wasn ’t just a feeding method for me, but a relationship with my child. My husband and I always talked about adopting a child who needed a family. We thought, if we can’t have kids of our own then we will adopt. Even if we can have kids of our own, maybe we will still adopt. After the birth of our

Why I Choose Christian Light Education Homeschool Curriculum

Last summer I decided that I was going to homeschool our foster daughters while they were on summer vacation.  There were two reasons for this: 1) Two of the three girls were behind academically.  I really hoped that by working through the summer we could help them get on track for the next school year.  They left our house soon after school started, so I don't know how well it worked. 2) I don't allow my children much in the way of screen time, and these girls were accustomed to having TV and tablets in their rooms all the time.  So they never really knew what to do with themselves.  I figured school work for the morning would help with that dilemma. Choosing a curriculum was difficult for me.  I know that some people bounce around and change curriculum a lot, but whatever I got, I hoped I would like enough to use the non-consumables with Little Guy.  I don't like wasting money, and I hate the idea of some topics falling through the cracks because different curricu
