Surviving Chaos: A day in the life.....
http://valerigail.blogspot.com/2009/01/730-am-wake-up-to-sounds-of-kids.html
Monday, January 19, 2009. A day in the life. Wake up to sounds of kids chasing the new kittens and Big Brother yelling "I SAID LEAVE THE CATS ALONE! Katelyn comes into the room to inform me that "Dylan is a big meanie! He won't let cats out from under table" (He was not letting HER get the cats out from under the table). All 3 kids are found in the front room holding down both kittens so they don't "get away". But its all ok mom, cause they like it! Hmmm I'm not so sure. I can't find my camera. We open a...

GET Designs: July 2009
http://ginnytallent.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html
Friday, July 31, 2009. New kit: Play Park plus QP freebie. I am loving this new kit. It is bold, bright, and fun. It was inspired by those wonderful play dates, when moms and kids come together, and everyone plays together well. Sure the play together part usually only lasts a few minutes, but you just give them a hug and send them back to the play ground. (Or as my boys have always called it, the play park.). And last but certainly not least, I created a quick page for you based on my speed scrap layout.

Surviving Chaos: Miracle #1
http://valerigail.blogspot.com/2009/02/miracle-1.html
Tuesday, February 3, 2009. My children are miracles. Each pregnancy, in my mind, had to be a complete act of God. He has a funny sense of humor, this God we cherish. but, I wouldn't change the way things played out for anything. Today, I'm going to tell you all about miracle #1. He sits down at his desk, opens my file and then says "Well, Valeri, I've got good news and better news. Which do you want first? I guess the good news". And thats when he says the words that changed my life forever. But it did&#...

Surviving Chaos: Sleep My Pretties, While I Scrap
http://valerigail.blogspot.com/2009/01/sleep-my-pretties-while-i-scrap.html
Thursday, January 22, 2009. Sleep My Pretties, While I Scrap. Tonight, my kids went to bed on their own for the very first time since we moved them all into one room. Before, We had the twins in one room, and baby girl in her own that doubled as the guest room. Tonight Bryan asks me if we could try to let them "do it on their own". So, with great fear, I agreed. It only took about 3 hours, but they all did finally fall asleep on their own. And they didn't destroy the room, or even leave it! Sorry) Sweet ...

Surviving Chaos: Medical Tip #1
http://valerigail.blogspot.com/2009/02/medical-tip-1.html
Sunday, February 1, 2009. Schedule your emergencies around Tuesday. T" stage too, and realize your gonna have to compete for this doctor's attention. Freak out the nurse with medical information, realize you can't give that urine sample you just agreed to cause you puked everything up for 5 days, and then proceed to almost pass out while hunched over the sink in the exam room after the doc checked out that "spot" thats been hurting you for years. We do scans here? Crazy small world, huh. you do CT sc...

Surviving Chaos: Miracles #2 and #3
http://valerigail.blogspot.com/2009/02/miracles-2-and-3.html
Wednesday, February 11, 2009. Miracles #2 and #3. I stopped walking down to the river, and started working outside the home. I started connecting with people again. And it felt good. Better than solitude. I was finally back invested in life. And thats when it happened. Why then do I have a report on my desk that says your blood test is positive? I was pregnant. And terrified. This was the only visit I had with them, and quickly changed OB's because of some personal reasons. I really didn't like the d...

Surviving Chaos: February 2009
http://valerigail.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html
Friday, February 13, 2009. The twins were 9 months old, and we had finally settled into a nice routine. They were almost walking, and had transitioned to a sippy cup instead of a bottle. (Granted it wasn't much different than a bottle, LOL, it was just cheaper! Bryan couldn't believe it. Wanted to know what had happened, how in the world? Like I've got an answer to that question besides the obvious! LOL But all I could come up with is that God has a strange sense of humor. Yeah, me too doc, me too! So wh...
