I had a wonderful Thanksgiving yesterday. Our family rents a cabin-like hall for all the people who come. It is really great to get so many people together. This year I am thankful for,
The blessing of Partnership for Families and Dr. Cynthia Austin for referring us for the grant.
For the miracle of God and [...]

Pregnant Art and Breastfeeding Medals
Posted by: Paige on: November 22, 2008
Beautiful pregnant bodies. Klimt is one of my favorite artists. He paints women so well.
I did my 3 hour test today and I’ll find out how I did on Monday. It wasn’t so bad because my sister came with me. She was a life saver and made the time go fast.
Actual medals to celebrate breastfeeding [...]

Odds and Ends

I am Blessed
Posted by: Paige on: November 11, 2008
I am blessed with the most wonderful family and friends. My baby shower was this past Saturday and it was just the most wonderful day. My mom and my mother-in-law hit one out of the park planning this party. We held it in a cabin-like hall in my hometown (Middle-of-Nowhere, Ohio). The decorations were beautiful [...]
