I am posting regularly on the Orange Christmas blog during advent and I posted a tutorial for this cute Advent Calendar that is now hanging on my wall! Each box is large enough to hold readings with small coloring sheets, a couple squares of fair trade chocolate and even a small toy if you choose. There are also links to advent readings with a focus on justice for slaves for adults and kids

I went a little shop happy at Michael's clearance yesterday! I spent about $150 but got ALL THIS! (Okay I had some of that ribbon already, and a few of the flowers too).I reorganized my craft closet a bit to fit in a good amount of my overflow. I got rid of about a box full of SU catalogs and forms (since I don't think I will be restarting that business). You can see pics of the before stash here

I am guest blogging today at "Dreaming of an Orange Christmas" which goes live tonight at 11pm! For those of you who are not yet in the know, Orange Christmas is a modern abolitionist movement started by Midtown Friends Community pastor Rebecca Tucker. The goal is to bring awareness of modern day slavery and give some helpful hints on how to have a slave-free Christmas (hint, it is something we

So I have been contemplating getting a small tattoo on the inside of my right ankle... This is the art that inspired me... It was the image we used on our bulletin for our church launch last October... It reminds me that my relationship with Toby has deep roots that kept us in the ground through the storm and that by putting God first and working together in our church is what got us through it..

I have been trying, and to my surprise, enjoying a lot of foods I was never able to eat or never liked pre-pregnancy... I have been able to eat stuff with jalapenos, bell peppers, coconut, etc... Last night we went out for Indian food and it was great! My favorite was the chicken masala... I tried and liked everything! They only ordered medium heat, but I was able to handle it and probably would

Went to visit our new Sunday meeting space today and it is so awesome! It's really hip and the owner (?) Brandon was really cool about Cohen coming in with Becky and I... There was a news crew there interviewing people about co-working and we took "hip" pictures for the Midtown website :). I am really excited for the chance to go in with Becky during the week.

In the blog department that is... I have been busy working on Cohen's room and making it as homey as possible... We got a rocking chair and the coveted CD player/iPod dock with remote! I covered the hand me down bassinet with cute fleece, and made a tree on the wall out of brown packing paper (that is still a work in progress)...

Tuesday there was a big storm and my phone went dead (I panic when that happens and started having contractions, but they settled after my friend Katie got to my house and helped me pack a bag just in case)...

We had art to look at and stuff to make art laid out, a drum circle, and fair trade coffee and chocolate tastings :)... We BBQ'd for about 65-70 people and somehow, even though we used all our meat (and meat substitutes), everyone seemed to get fed... The music went well,

But seriously, with a little help from my friends, this apartment that looked like a tornado had hit after my first 5 months or so of pregnancy is now starting to look pretty darn good!

Is it supposed to start this early? I "dropped into" a baby store (Goore's, for people in Sacramento) yesterday and 3 hours later came out shell shocked but giddy... I got to see the crib set we picked out before we knew it was available online only, Talked to reps about cloth diapering, baby wearing (she talked me into buying a sling), and diaper bags... I also found a humongo giraffe that I

I was just going to use my main blog to ponder about baby stuff, but when I made a blog just for little Cohen, I decided to start blogging my baby thoughts there... Like "Hmmm... what kind of diapers should I use?" and "Should I get a 3D ultrasound, or is it a waste of time and money?" So if you want to read my baby rambles, pop on over to Counting Down to Cohen

So I have been doing a little research and I am thinking about hiring a diaper service, at least while we live in this apartment with no washer/dryer in unit... I think we will still use some disposables (the biodegradable kind) for when we are out and about and at church (no nursery worker wants to deal with clothies)... The service starts at about $19 a week and about $30 to start for the

I have been thinking hard about what kind of diapers I would like to use... I hate the idea of loading truckloads of non-biodegradable diapers into a landfill, but we don't have a washer and dryer in our apartment, so cloth is out, and G-Diapers are stupid expensive... The next best eco-friendly option seems to be Earth's Best brand of biodegradable, disposable diapers... They are a bit more

I am thinking that maybe I'd like to get 3D/4D ultrasounds done like Faith's seen here, there is a place in town that does them for $125, the least expensive I have seen is around $99 and that was in the bay area (easily $25 in gas)... This is the site for the place that does them... What do you think guys?

The fam came up to visit this weekend and we crammed 8 people into my 2 bed 2 bath (well 1.5 bath when they got here, thanks dad for re-caulking the back tub) apartment like the Mexicans we are! We ate (a lot) and swam everyday and just had a good time! Thanks for making the trek guys, I know it wasn't easy for (or with) the kiddos! I also got to spend time with the extended fam and see my new

Toby and I LOVE Joe's Crab Shack and we were planning to go for our anniversary next month, but when we saw King Crab Legs on sale for $8.99/lb we jumped on it :). We got 8 legs for about $20 and also got some corn on the cob and some red new potatoes (the little ones)... We like the BBQ seasoning at Joe's and I found an imitation recipe online here and I bought all the stuff for it the last time

As I lay tossing and turning, seemingly alone with my anxious thoughts, I realized that my sisters in Christ are right, I am not strong enough to deal with this on my own, I am weak, and I need strength from above if I am going to make it... God is the only one who can give me strength, but I need to give up control over my situation, it is something I have struggled with, control... But just

So every time Jars of Clay comes out with a new album, I push it away at first because I love their original stuff so much... The Self Titled Album is and will always be my favorite... And this is a band that basically seems to reinvent itself every time they write... I told the boys that I really don't get it this time (they laughed and said I wouldn't)... But I don't think I really tried

Sorry if I have seemed a bit distant lately... Fact of the matter is, I haven't felt much like seeing people lately... I went to Monterey Bay with Toby and his Mom this weekend, there are pics in my Twitter if you want to see... But I am still alive and baby is (starting to be) kickin'! Thanks for understanding.

Well, I'm back from LA and I had a good time. Mom's 50th B-Day Hawaiian Luau was a hit and I learned a lot about organization! Spent half the day at Disneyland trying not to puke by hanging out in the air conditioned Innoventions building (found a really comfy leather chair and snoozed for a bit)... I also learned way more than I thought I would about toddlers! I guess it was good practice, but

I got the opportunity to ride down with my friend Ashley and her sister Dani for our friend's engagement party this Saturday and I am going to stay the week to help my brother with the kids so he can go to some GED study sessions (pray for him guys, he really needs to get this off his shoulders), and then my

I am just trying to get to my 100th Post... (Pssst... It's next!) Because I want to do a fun Giveaway... And because I missed my Blogiversary on Feb 2nd... And because I am just soooo ADD that I know if I don't do it now I will forget all about it tomorrow and post something Random... Oh also, I am moving all these posts back to LenaLoo.com because this whole shindig didn't work out so well... I

This post has been bubbling around in my head for a couple of weeks now... It started when I was chasing this rainbow (well, I was trying to find its end while driving)... Leave it to an ADD kid to chase rainbows... Maybe I thought I would truely find my hearts desires at the rainbow's end... Who knows...Be forewarned: I am about to divulge the daily inter-workings of my ADD brain...If I could

Okay, so even though the acting was a little cheezy, this was an amazing movie... It really demonstrated what I want in our marriage (at the end, not the beginning that is)... I encourage anyone who is going through struggles in their marriage to watch it, even if you have to trick your spouse into watching it or just put it on when they are home (get past the bad acting, please it is worth it)..

Like many Christians, I struggle with the concept of forgiveness... Not necessarily forgiving, but being forgiven... I understand repentance and I know the difference between it and just confession... But what I have a hard time with is letting go of the guilt after I have repented... And the guilt tends to make me continue to think on the things I have already repented for and therefore still

A long, long time ago, I posted this little Rant about how online social networking has become overrun with junk... And while I still feel some resentment about the vast amount of crap that Facebook and Myspace contain, I will admit that I could not see past the junk to the potential that Facebook still has... Today, thanks to my friend Xica, I discovered Notes (yes I know they have been a

So since I cannot seem to find a stable job in this economy that I am good at or will pay me what I am worth, I am launching my own business... I have been thinking about this for ages and now is finally the time... I am signing up to be a Stampin' Up demonstrator next week so this blog may have a new addition coming :)... I am also going to launch my Etsy site within the month so I will have

So as always, I went overboard... I have been prepping for my best friend Grace's new arrival, and I got a little outta control... The shower was great! Lots of people, and she got everything she could want or need... I helped her start to get the baby room organized and if she doesn't go into labor soon I will be painting her baby room with her hubby or her mom (we are way too overprotective to

I honestly can't wait until I have a daughter of my own... I know they can be much harder than boys in the attitude department but, like MckMama says, they make up for it in the fun department... I have been prepping for my friend Grace's baby shower (which is on the 31st)... I made her a diaper cake (my first one)and have been going baby crazy looking for all the perfect stuff for it...

Someday, maybe not anytime soon, in the future I will want sparkly jewelry more than nerdy electronics for birthday gifts... But I am just as thrilled with my shiny new Nintendo DS Lite as I would be with a pair of diamond earrings... I am such a geek...Yesterday Toby and I went on a wild goosechase looking for a white DS, to no avail we stopped at Target, WalMart, GameStop, and ToysRUs... We

I finally got Toby interested in my favorite book series of the moment by telling him how Stephanie Meyer writes the same time line from different perspectives (a technique that my dear husband wants to use in the novel he is writing)... We began reading it aloud together... We read about half of Twilight aloud and then I realized it was making us stay awake rather than making us sleepy (because

I have been 25 for 45 minutes now and let me tell you, I am feeling kind of dated... I was watching Romy and Michelle's High School Reunion before heading for bed and I was remembering when I thought their outfits were the coolest fashion statements ever... I also remember listening to New Kids on the block and wallpapering my room with Handon posters...I hung out with Amy all day (my brother's

Today is deemed a Grumpy Friday... I tried really hard not to be since I leave tomorrow for LA and my free Disney birthday, but my hubby did not make it easy... He played video games all day while I was out helping my friend update her baby shower registry... So now I have to wait for the laundry to be done before I can pack... He also ate ALL the bacon that I was going to use in a recipe for

Does anyone else seem to have that problem? When I get on a kick, it is all I can think about or do... Everything else seems to fall by the way side... Right now, my kick is working out and keeping track of the foods I have eaten... Now, I understand that this is a good kick to be on, but shouldn't everything be in moderation? I can't seem to think about anything else! I think I need some help
