Crew
Amanda (me): I'm a recent stay-at-home mommy to two wonderful babies. I have an adoring husband who travels far more than I wish, but we make it work. I'm a believer. I know that God has placed us right where we are...which makes my husbands travels easier to handle. I'm just trying to serve my Lord, serve my husband and God-fearing kids. I talk a lot. I'm an open book. I ramble…which is why I have a blog.
Chad: My amazing husband. He has the coolest job ever and most importantly, he LOVES what he does. EP (the executive producer around here) is committed to bringing good movies to the big screen. He's also the most patient person I know. We really do marry our opposites. He has a passionate love for Jesus and strives to do all things for His Glory.
Kai: My 5 year old (baby) boy. Kai (our Stunt Boy) is all boy... he loves riding his bike, being goofy and talking about poop. But, he also has extremely gentle spirit. It takes very little to hurt his feelings, he always understands when I need a hug, and he's becoming a mighty man of God.
Kenlee: Our precious almost two year old baby girl. Kenlee (our Starlet) has a mind all of her own. At this young age she already shows she one to reckon with. She refuses to see that she is significantly younger than her big brother and his friends.

Second Opinion
Wow. This blog may be a little gross and a few things I’m embarrassed to admit, but I think it needs to be shared. EP and I are self employed. Medical benefits for self-employed people are not good. Period end … Continue reading
How I ended up with a midwife.
**reposting from my old blog since i plan to reference it in an upcoming post** I get asked all of the time what led me to go with a midwife this time around. This question normally comes with stares of … Continue reading

First Dentist Visit
Today was SB’s first dentist appointment. EP took him. I was home dealing with U-verse…good story. Anyway, it worked out well and SB called it “man time” and was really calm and brave by having his dad there. They even … Continue reading
So that you may have life
MY God decided to give my friend the blessing of a baby in her womb (and the excitement of finding out she’s pregnant) and then decided to have that baby die resulting in a miscarriage (the ultimate low) and this was to make her STRONGER?? … It wasn’t until I was in my current Church (mainly to impress EP who I was smitten with — its ok to admit, God can still work on you even if you aren’t really there for Him at first!)
Pot Roast
Yup, that’s all this blog will be on, so veggies beware. I have successfully botched MANY MANY MANY pot roasts since EP & I got married. So much so that at one point we both agreed I should stop buying … Continue reading
