And He Has a Name!

July 25, 2013 by Sarah

I was all excited to watch the 11 o’clock news tonight in order to hear the latest happenings across the pond with the new Royal Baby name being revealed.  But, some doom and gloom stories took precedent and then they cut it short by 15 minutes in order to do a special report about the Redskins Training Camp countdown.  This is important news to us Richmonders, right?!!  Not so much in the Eddins house!  {Go Ravens!}

Despite not getting to see the official news break myself, I heard the important news from my sister over the phone today while strolling the aisles at Walmart.  Multi-tasking, I tell you!

George Alexander Louis

It has a nice ring to it, don’t you think?  It certainly wasn’t what I would have chosen (but you probably guessed that since we used Andrew Ryan and Brady Wayne for both of our sons), but it’s not terrible.  It’s rather formal if you ask me, but then again, this is the future king that we’re talking about here!  And it’s not like they didn’t have the Queen of England breathing down their neck about keeping up with tradition.  Geez, talk about pressure!

I thought Kate and William’s introduction of the baby was precious yesterday.  Kate looked as stunning and classy as ever (but should we have expected anything less from her?) and her motherly instincts were kicking in immediately as she gently passed off little George to Prince William.  How cute was William trying to click the Britax baby carrier into the Range Rover while the entire world was watching?  You did good, Dad!

I’ve always had a fascination with the Royals, but I just adore this little family so much {I was glued to the TV screen the day they got married}!  They seem as real and down to earth as any future heirs can be, which is so endearing.  I hope and pray for the Lord’s guidance as they raise that little boy.  No matter our status in life, it’s only by His grace that any of us parents get even a smidge of this parenting thing right!

And just for the record, if it wasn’t for the fact that I know Kate Middleton had her stylist on hand, I’d be down right jealous of how good she looked!  Nobody looks that good 24 hours after having a baby unless they have a little bit of help.  🙂

I'm actually cleaning/dusting the ceiling fan in our guest room. I saw this tip years ago and I've been doing it ever since, although probably not as often as I should! 🤪

Snag an old pillowcase and drag it off each blade so the dust stays inside of it. Then, wash it in your next laundry load for easy clean up!

Happy Friday!!
This is where the meal magic happens in our house. This is where the meal magic happens in our house.  Don't ever let anyone convince you that you have to have a large (and often expensive) kitchen in order to feed your family.

Is there anything wrong with a large and expensive kitchen?  Nope!

Can they be helpful?  Absolutely!

This house was built in the 1940s and likely housed a family our size, or maybe larger.  It's amazing to think how our concept of wants and needs have changed since then.

Maybe someday we'll have a larger kitchen, but for now, I'm thankful that this small kitchen allows me to have everything at my fingertips quickly! 😁
"The answer to the purposelessness and hollowness "The answer to the purposelessness and hollowness we feel is found not in us but outside of us. The solutions to our problems and pain aren't found in self-love, but in God's love.

The God who created us, who created the universe, who is the same yesterday, today, and forever, is the one who provides us with the purpose and satisfaction we're seeking. While self love depletes, God's love for us doesn't. He showed us his love by sending Jesus to die for our sins so that we could be forgiven and live forever with him. Self-love is superficial and temporary. God's love is profound and eternal."

"The first myth that you are enough. My counter was this: you're not you'll never be enough, and that's okay, because God is."

--Allie Beth Stuckey
