Date with Helez

Helez has been asking to go on a date all week. So we woke up early and headed out to the local bakery to get some treats. Is the class were a cinnamon roll and coffee. 😂 he’s definitely my kid lots of sugar and some caffeine does the soul well. I always enjoy my one on one time with the kids.  I love to get inside their brains and hear some of their thoughts.

I searched Pinterest for questions to ask kids and started through the lists. Some of my favorite responses were... 
1.Dad, Nova and his friend Caleb are his best friends. 
2.You become an adult when you’re ten. 3. If he could, he’d have a pet elephant the size of a cat. 4. If he could go anywhere in the world he’d go to North America because that’s where Grandma and Grandpa live. He’s buying a house there next fall 😂. 5. What makes him a good friend is that he’s helpful. 💕
It was such a delight to listen to him. I laughed and smiled and felt blessed to listen to all his wandering thoughts. https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=16U59ODeYQfsQGyVc15DNwbnsLyHvLrek
He likes to sit up top in the upper level of the bakery so we can observe the store and people. A great way to start our weekend. 
Happy Fall, Briana

Messy house, missions & alot more!

So we are getting closer and closer to being settled at the new place, but lets be real.. we have so far to go. My main goal is to try and do dishes, laundry & keep us fed. Unpacking will come in due time. I have a handful of things i want to share with you so lets get to it! 1. I finally got Axels Cloth diapers! I bought them here.  They are bamboo flats & I am using bummis covers as of now! They are working pretty well. the flat is very basic. literally just a large piece of organic cotton/bamboo. I have tried 3 different ways to fold and not quite sure which i like best yet.  Trifold - Newspaper fold- Origami fold. I think I'm going to stick with Newspaper for now. If you're interested in this there are plenty of youtube videos to check out! Cloth diapering is a huge money saver! We have already spent more on disposables in the first 2 months than we did on our cloth diaper supply! On top of that, disposables create so much waste! It is estimated that in the Uni...

I'm Still Learning..

Image
In case you are wondering.. I am still learning.  When we make a choice to do something, to love someone, to take on a new adventure, to commit to a new job or to become a parent, we are learning . It seems nearly impossible to live life's experiences and not be absorbing something at some point.  Moving to Costa Rica has not looked like I thought it would. Not at all really. In some ways that's good and in some ways its been hard. It seems that in every circumstance I am confronted with, God reminds me that this is a learning experience , an opportunity to grow.  I have a lot of thoughts running through my head and not a lot of words being typed out. All in all I am thankful that although sometimes my plans don't look like Gods plans, I am happy knowing I am in good hands.  This is short but i wanted to just share a few thoughts and a few photos.  Lots of Love, Briana
