A little known fact about us...
As some of you know, my little Simon was diagnosed with severe food allergies when he was 15mos old. Simon has a long baby medical history with gastrointestinal issues that I won't go into, but it is quite a testimony for a little guy. Anyway... he has been on a gluten-free, wheat, dairy, corn, casein, whey, and so on FREE diet ever since. Once we found out was was causing him pain and severe acid reflux, we nipped it in the bud and got him on this special diet. Long story short...he is the healthiest litte dude around! No candy, soda, heavy sugars, and lots more...But he is not deprived at all! There are tons of food companies that sell great products that satisfy sweet-tooths and more.
I found this great book on food allergies and a kid's gluten-free diet at the library. It is the coolest book ever (for little Simon)! It talks about what happens, what you can eat, the good that comes from it, the difficulties with being "different," and even how friends are so understanding, and how it's actually kind of cool to be different. He LOVED it! He wanted me to read it over and over again! He knows he is loved, that he's being taken care of, that he gets to have cookies like everyone else, and that although he's different, that is how God made him and...his story isn't over yet! He may possibly grow out of these food allergies. He may possibly be fine, just like the other kids. But for now...Simon is perfect! And he is Loved! And he is ours! Thank you, Lord!

Holiday Boutique Fundraiser
I am putting on a Holiday Boutique Fundraiser at my church on Nov.12th. The proceeds will be going to our Women's Ministry and SoCal Connected, which is an outreach group that my close friends and us started a couple of years ago. We aim to "reach out and meet the needs" in our local community. These pics are of the two main outreach projects that we are consistently working with. Lighthouse is a Ministry for those with Special Needs (ages teen and up). It's AWESOME!!!! We have SO much fun there, you wouldn't believe it! (I'm in the pink shirt in the back of that pic). The other pics are of Isaiah's House which is the home of about 60-80 homeless women. We bring groups and do games, kareoke, and manicures for the ladies. It is such a blessing to be part of these women's lives and build relationships with them. We learn so much from them and walk away with gratitude for all that we have!If you would like more info on these ministries or the Holiday Boutique, please go to my other blog, socalconnect.blogspot.com.

A Day of Firsts...
Today was Simon's very first Team experience ever! He started soccer through the YMCA (very non-competitive), and really ended up loving it. Trying "new" things has always been hard for little guy, but we saw huge growth from the sreaming fit to put his uniform on when we first got there, to the end when he didn't want to leave! It's so great to see him growing up! Then...we went bowling (as a reward) for the first time!!! I know...I planned both on purpose- what was I thinking??! No really, it was the best day as a fam and we were blessed to be together, especially during a busy season in our lives. There's always work to do at home with a hubby as a teacher, but sometimes you gotta set it aside and be together! Precious, special memories...and more to come!Friday, October 2, 2009
God is so good!
It has been SO cool to see these caterpillars forming cocoons and then turning into beautiful butterflies! Our neighbor has a "butterfly bush" and swarms of caterpillars have been eating the leaves, then going off to go to sleep in their cocoon. I actually arrived home and saw one drop out of one!! It was the most amazing thing (and timing) I have ever seen! Simon is sure learning a lot about metamorphisis, which is perfect since his dad is a Science teacher. I am loving seeing God'd work in the things around me..He is SO good!Thursday, October 1, 2009

Little Simon at Pretend City

I haven't really put many pics of my fam on my blog, but I thought it would be neat to post some so you can get to know me a bit. I'll still be sewing, but I'm also busy hanging with my little dude. He's not in PreSchool this year, so we'll be doing some fun things instead. These can be ideas for you mommies out there!These pics are at Pretend City in Irvine. It's brand new and is the BEST place to take children under 5 or 6 (that's just a guess). They have about 15-20 stations of everything you can imagine...from a doctor's office, to post office, to fishery, to a beach, storytime, farm, building, and on and on....If you're in town and you have young children, you HAVE to check this place out! We could have stayed ALL day! I've never seen Simon SO engaged with playing before. He really took the roles on and his independent play has been very creative ever since;)

SALE!
Hi dear bubsies shoppers! Please scroll down the pages and see some sale items. I marked them down to sell them asap. Let me know what you like and I'll pop it in the mail tomorrow! I also have several Tie onesies and Bowtie onesies in 3-6mos that I would love to sell. They are $10 and are a really cute baby boy gift!
Street Fair
Well...the Ladera Street Fair was a good learning lesson for me! Although the sales were not that great, I am thankful I had the chance to get my name out there. You have to try these types of things in order to get business, so I am glad I did it. My sweet (and very generous) friends were the ones who actually bought from me. I am blessed...that's for sure!The pic with the Christmas Tree Quilt is handmade by my mom! We tried to sell it for $100 (well below the price it actually is worth) and it didn't sell either. So, it's up for grabs to you! The price stands at $100 and you are welcome to spread the word to any quilt lovers! Thank you for your support, my sweet friends!
