Did You Know...


  • that we have an entire shelf in our bathroom devoted to Uncle John's Bathroom Readers?
  • that Jordan built a dress frame and was filmed for TLC's Toddler's and Tiaras last month which will air next season?
  • that we have a whole shelf in the pantry just for cereal?
  • and an entire cupboard just for coffee and tea?
  • Jordan wouldn't touch Cream of Wheat until I called it "porridge" and now he can't get enough?
  • that Adelaide will go an entire day without touching a single toy?
  • and on those days, I can expect to find my canned goods and potatoes in various spots around the house, and onions with chunks bitten out of them, and to remove Adelaide from tiny cubbyholes she's managed to get herself stuck in numerous times?
  • but also on those days, I have an amazing little helper who loves to do laundry and load dishes and sweep and pick up trash?
  • that Longview Tx is in the lead for our longest residency within the past 16 months? (going on 7 months!)
  • that Adelaide's name was picked out while we were dating, before we were even engaged?
  • that Jordan really enjoys watching Gilmore Girls with me? (sometimes I think he enjoys it more!)
  • that I desperately want to go to midwifery school someday?
  • that one of our very first (if not first) family traditions is Breakfast for Dinner on Sunday nights?
  • that as much as I love babies, birthing, and etc. I am not one of those women who love pregnancy, or even like it for that matter... I see it as preparation for parenting/laying down your life for your children and as another way of being conformed to the image of Christ.
  • that I got so excited about showing Adelaide a toad, I set her down in an anthill?
  • that we only use a French press to brew our coffee?
  • that Jordan really wants to participate in a Civil War reenactment?
  • that Jordan took fencing in college?
  • that I can be very obsessed with cloth diapering and babywearing?
