i really want some watermelon now...
eeeek, you gave me bubbles! (goosebumps) Thanks Rach :)
Great answers too, and lol, you should start saying "I carried a Watermelon" all the time :]
I think you are warm and kind and very funny.
Gosh...you eat the watermelon and then you feel like you are giving birth to a watermelon.
:)
I can't even imagine what teenagers will talk like in the future!
hi there, i've been lurking on here for awhile now and thought i'd finally say hi. and i know what you mean about watermelon except for me it's mangoes. can't get enough of them!
and i'm totally with you on the soccer mom thing. some girl i don't really know said something about me looking like a soccer mom and i was mad for weeks. :)
i have a song about watermelon that i plan on teaching sebastian. get excited! :-)
What fun - tu for sharing!
You should get a mosquito coil, they work much better than citronella. We got ours at Target but they have it most places insect repellent is sold. You light the coil and then blow it out, the small amount of smoke put out will keep you critter free. We used them in Jamaica while I was on field camp, the mosquitoes are the size of humming birds.
Braums=a staple in my diet. Whenever my best-friends car broke down we were at Braums, and when she called her insurance company she told them where she was and they were lik "I'm sorry...you're where?" I always forget that its Oklahoma based.
Hi Rachel! I just wanted to say that I love reading your blog. I too am a mama and artist so I find joy in reading about your daily life. I don't have many friends who are mothers AND obsessed crafters so I feel like you're a friend :)
Anyways, I hope you have a lovely day and I pray to God that my son will also love to eat healthy foods too!
I'm cracking up at the "don't call it soccer mom" comment. Everytime I go shopping or get my haircut, my only basis for decisions is "Does this make me look like a mom?" I will shave my head and go naked before I get a mom haircut or go out of the house in a mom outfit. And congratulations on raising a son that eats healthy. I'm trying, but it's sooooo hard sometimes!!

your blog is amazing mrs. rachel!! i enjoy reading your posts. eclipse was my favorite book of that series also. great answers!
You talked a lot about watermelon. I want some now :) Not a bad thing :) I think I will get some for dinner... I'm bad at that right now. I eat fruit for random meals. Ok so maybe that isn't so great for growing baby, but my momma says it's better than a bag of candy. haha!! I do want your tips and tricks on raising that son who loves health food. .. I would love to raise my child that way :)
xoxo,
christen
