December 30th, 2009 | by Jessie | Because you guys know how much I love our very own Prairie Princess (dear friend and guest blogger here on ngco), I’d just ask you to keep her and her family in your prayers this week. She lost her baby niece yesterday. Visit her blog for more info. Thanks, guys.

There’s Dylan! He really lucked out this Christmas with a lot of sports apparel. Vikings, Cowboys, Iowa gear, oh my!
Christmas morning we were at my mom & dad’s house. The boys were ripping off wrapping paper but not bothering to look inside the boxes. They’d just go to the next one.

Here’s the deal, as far I can figure out, anyway.
This all happened on December 23rd. Not the greatest timing to make the “nice” list.
I was busily preparing for the five of us to be out of town for four consecutive nights: folding laundry and packing clothes in our bedroom.
I went [...]
December 22nd, 2009 | by Jessie | Hey ngco faithful! It’s Jacob again, and I’m back with some more Nicaragua recap. If you recall my last entry, I wrote about La Chureca and gave you some of my history with Nicaragua.
You’ll remember that my adventure in La Chureca took place on Thanksgiving Day (Nov. 26). Little did you know that I [...]

I loved this game as a kid!
Mom and the boys were playing it little bit differently than how it’s intended to be played. Instead of asking questions to find out which [...]
December 21st, 2009 | by Jessie | Well, the Christmas week is upon us. I’ve been keeping busy! Last weekend, however, we slowed our pace and had a most enjoyable weekend.
First of all, my mom had our older boys Friday afternoon until Sunday afternoon. It was awesome. I love a break from our kids, I think I may have mentioned that [...]
December 18th, 2009 | by Jessie | Did you know that the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) is regulating blogs? Well, they are.
Don’t worry, I’m not scared. I have nothing to hide. Really.
Since we have done a few giveaways (mostly gift cards) in the past and will most likely do them again in the future, I just wanted you to know [...]
December 17th, 2009 | by Jessie | Just a short update today.
Tuesday I broke the double-digits barrier and accomplished 10 pounds lost.
After reading many convincing articles about the importance of drinking water especially as it pertains to weight loss, I’ve been focusing on that. Since the kitchen is the hub of my home I have decided to keep a tumbler [...]

Here’s Toby.
Or Tobes.
Sucking on his toe.
This is his new favorite trick when I’m changing his diaper and/or clothes. He has actually cried in protest when I have put his feet back in his sleeper. I know, I’m a joy-stealer.
I guess I should explain the “Toby” part of this. Months ago [...]
