Raised Garden Beds


Last year I wanted to try gardening in a raised garden bed. I was pregnant and we were trying to sell the house.  The house didn't sell, so I was able to convince the hubby to build some raised garden beds this year. We bought ours from Cosco. We have leaves, twigs, dirt, newspaper, manure and top soil as layers so far.  The toddlers did well moving the dirt and helping the hubby.



Isaiah 58:11

New King James Version (NKJV)

11 
The Lord will guide you continually,
And satisfy your soul in drought,
And strengthen your bones;
You shall be like a watered garden,
And like a spring of water, whose waters do not fail.

Exercise


My hubby and I started training for a 5K. We are using the couch to 5K app. I push Shiloh in the stroller and hubby pushes the boys in the double stroller.  I love feeling the wind on my face and pushing a stroller "fast." Elijah will often repeat the mans voice with "5 minute warm up walk Mom!"  I love reading about other active moms and running.

March

This past weekend we had a visit to the medical center, emergency department and then ended up with an endoscopy of my hubby's esophagus.  He appears to have a sensitivity to dairy,  gluten and peanuts. With God's strength I was able to watch the 3 kids in the waiting area for 3.5 hours on Tuesday during his procedure.

We are home today and thankful to have a "regular routine" day, filled with playdough, cleaning and rest time. I am also watching a neighborhood boy this week. I pray that our family could be a blessing to him!  I am looking forward to a la leche league meeting tomorrow.
