Looking for that “ideal” place to live

Eric and I are once again on the search to look for the “ideal” place to live. After living in Denver (even just for the year) I quickly forgot how expensive it is to live in Pasadena within walking distance to works and various stores in the area. When we lived in Denver, Cherry [...]

Pediatrician anyone?

Can any one recommend a good pediatrics office in the Pasadena area? I’ve been having a hard time finding the right pediatrician for Asher. We went to an AMAZING pediatrics’ office (http://www.cherrycreekpeds.com) and Dr. Jody was the best doctor I’ve ever been to and she wasn’t even my doctor. She took such [...]

Farm Hands: A Unique Approach to Urban Eating

Do you want the taste and freshness of fresh, organic homegrown vegetables and fruits, but have neither the time nor the knowledge to maintain a productive garden?

• Are you living in an apartment or condo without a yard and would like the option of receiving homegrown vegetables and fruit from your neighborhood?
• Are you [...]

LA bound, here we go again…

I’m just going to cut to the chase, Eric, Asher, and I are moving back to Pasadena,CA on May 1st.  Why do you ask? We’ve had a few donor’s drop their financial support (due to the economy) as well as the church Eric and I were working with part-time is no longer able to pay [...]

Asher picture updates

Until then, here are some recent pictures of Asher.  It’s been a while so there’s a few.  Asher is now getting his second tooth in…I can barely see the top. 
I thought I would start blogging once again since I feel the need to express myself and to somehow figure out where and what I’m supposed [...]

Give peas a chance…Asher did & loves them!

Asher has been starting to eat baby food for the past two weeks and it has been fun seeing him examine and make those awkward faces towards his food. He currently likes peas, sweet potatoes, pears, and apples (he’s still questioning the apples). Tomorrow we’ll be trying butternut squash that I made so that should [...]

Community anyone?

As some of you know I’ve been struggling with our move out to Colorado and questioning if this was the right decision for us.  I vacillate between knowing that this is where we’re supposed to be for a short time and letting Eric do what he needs to do ministry-wise and during this time I’m [...]

Asher is 5 months old

It’s been a crazy, joy filled, and amazing 5 months and this is only the beginning.  I’m continually thankful and feel blessed for this little boy on a daily basis.  I just pray that as I raise Asher he will grow up to a man who is filled with joy, love, peace, and the sweet [...]

Becoming a mom after infertility

Becoming a mother is one of the greatest and scariest things I could I ever imagine it could be.  With everything we’ve gone thru these past 6 years (infertility, miscarriages, and major tests) and now finally having this opportunity to raise this child means even more to me than I have imagined.  During my pregnancy [...]

I am still here…

I will soon post on what’s been going on with me as well as Asher.  It’s been a crazy few months (Asher having acid reflux and finding the right medication for him).  As well as for myself for being truly blessed with this child, but also having feelings of depression of not being able to [...]

August 30, 2008

This is the day that a miracle and a blessing occurred in my life at 12:09AM. Asher Ericson Herron made his appearance and I have never felt such as overwhelming of God’s presence in my life that I have that day. It has been quite a journey getting to this point in life that I [...]

I’m still here…

I just wanted to let you know that I am still alive, still pregnant (going on 28wks), having a boy, and just moved to Denver, CO as of 7 days ago. Life has been absolutely CRaZy but I have a lot to tell you all. I should be posting something within the next few days. [...]

dr.appt

I just got back from my OBGYN and as of right now….both of my hormone levels look good (gone up considerably).  Next Thursday, 1/17 morning I’ll be going back to see if a heartbeat can be detected.  I’m thankful at this moment that my levels did go up and everything “seems” to be ok, but [...]

A movie worth seeing

 

Our office closed yesterday for our annual staff Christmas party which consisted of lunch and a movie, Juno.    Going in to the theatre, I wasn’t sure what to expect…. and coming out I was glad to have seen this.  During the movie at certain times, was hard for me to watch just because of our current [...]

It’s just interesting…

As some of you personally know, I am a planner and I like to plan things out to help me achieve a goal. As of lately, there has been a few circumstances that I just can’t plan because it’s either out of my control or well, I guess that’s pretty much it. Over this past [...]

Mark 9:14-29

A friend emailed me this scripture a while back and this morning I came across her email. I thought I would share this…
A father asked Jesus to heal his son, “If you can do anything, take pity on us and help us,” he cried. “‘If you can’?” said Jesus. “Everything is possible for him [...]

Lord help me…

 Simplicity is the property, condition, or qaulity of being simple or un-combined.  It often denotes beauty, purity or clarity. Simple things are usually easier to explain and understand than complicated ones.  Antother definition can mean freedom from hardship, effort, or confusion.
