A Wife Loved Like The Church

We’ve been trying to go more green in our household cleaning products the last fews months. Clorox has a great new line called Green Works that is relatively inexpensive and good. They are made from plant-based material, and reminds me a bit of dandelions. The test for me with any cleaner is that after I’m done cleaning I don’t feel like I have toxins on me and that I would have no concern picking up Julia before washing my hands.

However, my one complaint, is that we get some pretty nasty soap scum in our shower that Green Works can’t seem to fight. So far, only super harsh smelling toxic cleaners get the tub back to white, and that’s after major elbow grease added on my part.

Until, yesterday. Yesterday I decided to try out some ideas I had read about on the blog Green Parenting. The blogger lists all the household products you can use as cleaners, how much is needed, and what works best for each area of the house.

So yesterday, I pour baking soda and vingear in my tub. I let it set, and WALLA, I now have a super white tub again. I would venture to say if you use the vingear alone, it will do the job just fine, but some part of me liked have the volcano effect of the two ingredients and the extra cleaning power of the baking soda. Also, I found that there was some comic relief in knowing that the connoction I’ve starting using to washing my hair can also clean up my tub (***look for a no ‘poo blog in the future***).

At any rate, here’s the list I found and thought I’d share.

SUPPLIES:

VG[inegar]— naturally cleans like an all-purpose cleaner.VGis a great natural cleaning product as well as a disinfectant and deodorizer. Always test on an inconspicuous area. Improperly dilutedVGis acidic and can eat away at tile grout. Never useVGon marble surfaces. The smell disappears when it dries. Helps break down detergent in laundry. Use it to clean coffeepots, glass, paintbrushes, grout, windows and fireplaces.
LJ[lemon Juice] – Another natural substance used to clean your home. Can rot after 2 weeks.
Baking Soda [BS] – Cleaning agent even after used up as fridge deoderizer. Cleans, deodorizes, softens W, scours.
Soap – unscented natural soap in liquid form, flakes, powders or bars is biodegradable and will clean just about anything.
Borax [BX] – cleans, deodorizes, disinfects, softens W, cleans wallpaper, painted walls and floors.
WhiteVinegar [VG]- cuts grease, removes mildew, odors, some stains and wax build-up.
Washing Soda[WS] – or SAL Soda is sodium carbonate decahydrate, a mineral. Washing soda cuts grease, removes stains, softens W, cleans wall, tiles, sinks and tubs. Use care, as washing soda can irritate mucous membranes. Do not use on aluminum.
Ethanol or 100 proof Alcohol & water[RA} – is an excellent disinfectant.
Cornstarch – can be used to clean windows, polish furniture, shampoo carpets and rugs.
Citrus Solvent – cleans paint brushes, oil and grease, some stains.

As many, if not all, of you know, the Midwest is experiencing some major flooding. Yesterday morning Jonathan was able to get out and take some pictures of the surrounding area. While these shots are only about a mile-mile and a half from our house, thankfully we won’t see any flooding due to high elevation and the river not being close by. Crazily enough, the authorities are saying that we can expect up to at least 5 more feet by tomorrow (Sunday).

Keep in mind, Jonathan took these at 5 am yesterday morning. Already in many of these areas the water is almost waist deep. Fletcher and Jonathan have spent a lot of time sandbagging but the waters are projected to go over the sandbags. Now, our efforts are going towards helping people evacuate from their homes.

In all this, I can’t help but think of God’s promise to Noah, to all people, that He will never again flood the whole earth. I mean, just seeing the water rise as much as it is is pretty scary stuff. But imagining everything, trees, cliffs, mountain tops, being covered in water is overwhelming.

One funny thing to note: Each morning when Julia wakes up I sing her the “Arky-arky” song.

God told Noah there’s going to be a floodie, floodie.
God told Noah there’s going to be a floodie, floodie.
Get those animals (clap!) out of the muddie, muddie,
Children of the Lord.

So, rise and shine and give God the glory, glory.
Rise and shine and give God the glory, glory.
Rise and shine and (clap!) give God the glory, glory,
Children of the Lord.

God told Noah to build him an arky, arky.
God told Noah to build him an arky, arky.
Build it out of (claps!) gopher barky, barky,
Children of the Lord.

(Chorus)

The animals, they came in, they came in by twosies, twosies,
The animals, they came in, they came in by twosies, twosies,
Elephants and kangaroosies, roosies,
Children of the Lord.

(Chorus)

It rained, it rained for forty nights and daysies, daysies,
It rained, it rained for forty nights and daysies, daysies,
Almost drove poor Noah crazy, crazy,
Children of the Lord.

(Chorus)

The sun came out and dried up the landy, landy,
The sun came out and dried up the landy, landy,
Everything was fine and dandy, dandy,
Children of the Lord.

This is the end of, the end of our story, story,
This is the end of, the end of our story, strory,
Everything was hunky dory, dory,
Children of the Lord.

(Chorus)

Because I am a self declared crazy woman, I’ve started looking into cloth diapers. Fitted, liners, doublers, covers, prefolds – Indian or Chinese. It’s quite overwhelming. But, nonetheless, in an attempt to be environmentally and economically friendly, cloth is becoming quite appealing. Until today…

Julia had a blowout. All up her back. Yum.

So, here I am, stripping her down in the bathroom, running her under the facet, and laughing at just how funny this must look to anyone who’s not a mom. Afterward, I started cleaning up her onesie in the sink. And at some point I thought “Ah, so this is what cloth dipaers will be like. Washing out poo in the sink with my hands.”

I’ve found an online diaper store that sells “trial kits” for us parents who aren’t quite sold on washing pee and poo on a tri-weekly bases, but are thinking about it. The start up costs are a little hefty, however, if the average cloth diaper really does last 3-5 years, that’s pretty good. Yet, it’s nice to just throw away everything and not think twice. Which makes me come to an impasse of to cloth or not to cloth. If we do it, we’ll try it next month, budget allowing.

So there maybe some interesting diaper stories soon to come here in the Windham house…

It’s true what they say about traveling. Once you start you never want to stop. My brother calls it the travel bug. You go one place, then you want to go to another, and another, and another. Well, my travel bug has been itching for, oh, I don’t know, 3 years now. Not that I haven’t gone places in the last 3 years, it’s just that I really, really want to go back overseas. Jonathan even said the other day that he was itching for Europe. The only problem is, I can’t imagine Europe being as much fun with a 6 month old. I could be wrong, but I’m just guessing. So, we might be keeping in future traveling to the states. Or maybe Canada. Canada seems cool. Despite what Amanda says.

I’ve come to realize something now that I am back on the internet. I don’t really like the internet all that much. It’s kinda a bother in some ways. Don’t get me wrong, there are some way cool things that the internet provides and that part is something I can dig. But I’m finding myself more and more viewing it as a quick-check-your-email system and then moving on with life. Which, quite frankly, is pretty cool, given that before my fast I was glued to the computer. And today I realized I had checked Facebook in several days, had not gotten on my email since yesterday morning and haven’t done much else on online since coming back. These are all things that before would have seemed the hardest things not to do. On the flip side of it all I’ve been reading a lot more. And I have to say, I like that a lot.

I will throw in this quick note: Julia has a tooth! I felt it on Monday and you can just see the top of it on the front bottom left (her left) side. Pretty sweet. 🙂

… in a land far, far away, there lived a woman who was half crazy. One day she decided that in order to grow to know her Lord just a little bit better she would cut off all modern forms of communication (or just the internet). And so for 40 days she ignored the computer. Now, at the end of her sentence she has come to the conclusion that a) the world does go on without you, b) you can have a small child and read books, c) she is still crazy, but hopefully a little wiser.

It’s been a while. At the beginning of April I had a serious heart check about my life/time and where I put my hope. I realized I was more concerned with who posted on my facebook wall and who did or didn’t leave comments on my blog then I was about how much time I spent with God. I saw in myself a person who had become so wrapped up in herself I couldn’t go more than a few hours without logging on. So, I cut the cords. I took a drastic (for me) measure and logged off for a while. And it’s been good. I’ve learned a lot about myself, that I can start and complete a task, and that God gives us way more grace than we deserve.

Alrighty, I suppose I can do a quick update on all things Windham. Julia turns a whopping 6 months on this Friday! I just can’t even grasp it. She’s now been introduced to rice cereal and sweet peas. Sweet peas did not go over very well at first, but now she opens her mouth up super wide when she sees the spoon. Of course, half the food ends up running down her chin, but we’re backing progress.

Speaking of other Julia-progressions, she is now sitting up. She started right before she turned 5 months old. She would sit up for about a minute doing what I call the ‘gorilla stance’ – where the babe uses their hands to hold themselves steady; it looks like a gorilla to me. But at the beginning of May she started sitting upright. She’s doing really well, and tends to only fall over when she’s sleepy or irritated. And luckily she hasn’t hurt herself too bad… just once when she flung herself back on the wood floors in our kitchen.

We’re starting house church at our house this weekend. I’m really excited. These means I will actually be able to stay for the duration of church now! We rearranged the down stairs to accommidate for a sitting room and I must say it looks pretty sweet. I might just start spending more time down here.

Jack got a shock collar. Sounds worse than it really is. He has just kinda gone crazy with barking and running off, so we bought a shock collar that he wears every time we let him outside. I’ve used it once. He hasn’t really barked outside since. Apparently, it’s pretty effective.

Well, that’s about it in a nut shell. I’m sure there’s more that I could write, but I’ll save it for later.

I got tagged! And I’ll admit like Alicia M, I’ve always secretly wanted to be tagged. 🙂 So here are 10 random things about myself.

1. I slept with a stuffed animal named Buttcatt until I got married. Wait. That was a lie. I slept with him after I got married too. Just not when Jonathan was at home.

2. I prefer to not take the first item off a shelf at the store, instead I will take the one behind it. Especially if the product comes in a box.

3. I love being outdoors. It makes me feel really close to God. So when it’s nice out I will sit for hours outside on the porch, or just put up all the windows and enjoy the fresh air.

4. I’ve always wanted to be a spy. Windham. Sarah Windham. Sounds good, doesn’t?

5. I don’t like bananas if they have any brown spots on them. I realize that the peel can be brown and it doesn’t mean the banana itself is, but still, I have to force myself to eat one once the peel is brown.

6. I’ve been proposed to twice. Both times while in Europe. The second time was with Jonathan. The first, just as memorable, was from a drunk old Hungarian on New Year’s Eve in Rome. I was at a cafe with my family when this old man came in and started calling me “princippessa” and proposed. It was really funny.

7. I secretly day dream about being in the Southern Living magazine. Either because of my garden, home or cooking. Especially my cooking.

8. I learned to enjoy hot tea with sugar and milk when I was younger because I was fully convinced I would one day meet the British Royals and would need to take milk with my tea at Afternoon Tea.

9. I took fencing for an entire year in college. I even competed some. It was a lot of fun, and I wish I could still do it. Hmmm, maybe I should look into a local fence club here in town.

10. I slept in pillowcases when I was a little girl. My family has some ridiculous pictures of me sleep on the bed in a pillowcase. I don’t even know why I did it. Maybe it was a make-shift sleeping bag??

Now I’m gonna tag Suzanne F, Emily, Lincoln, Kara and Shelly (you can do it on Facebook!).

We are adding one more member to our family.

And no, I’m not pregnant.

My brother, Fletcher, has moved in with us. He came up on Tuesday with my mom and Dave, and starts school this week. It’s going to be a fun adventure, not just for Fletch, but for Jonathan and I as well. I’m looking forward to see what God has in plan for us all and really thrilled that Julia gets to be around her Uncle Fletch.

Now, in other news…. Julia is rolling over! She just rolls one way (when on her belly) and she’s only done it a few times, but we’re getting there. And when she’s on her back, she rolls over on her side (especially at night). It’s crazy, because it seems like it all just kinda happened over night. Before you know it, she’ll be walking and talking.

… I am back in my pre-baby jeans!

I’m sure most everyone who has gotten to see Julia either right before or after bedtime has seen her in her baby burrito (tightly wrapped blankets that turn any baby into a cute little burrito). For the last 3 months the baby burrito has been a true blessing. She sleeps so soundly and it helped a great deal when her tummy was hurting so much. However, the burrito is turning sour.

Julia, being too smart for her own good, has picked up on what our bedtime/naptime rituals are, and has taken to fighting us when we swaddle her. She’ll arch her back, kick, cry, wiggle, anything just to keep from being swaddled. Only thing is, she can’t sleep without it. Hmmm… I see a problem here. She has even started doing acrobats in her sleep and so she wakes up completely unswaddled after a few hours (and on the opposite side of the crib), thus going from a 6-7 hours a night sleeper, to 4-5 hours. It seems like every time I go into her room at night now her little left hand and arm are waving free. I secretly think she thinks it’s a game: Let’s see how long it takes me to get out of this one. She’s a little Houdini.

Last week during nap time I would lay her down loosely swaddled or completely unswaddled as to wean her off. Yeah, that wasn’t pleasant. She’d sleep for just a few minutes, startle herself, wake up, not fall back to sleep, cry, then be completely swaddled, just to sleep soundly for an hour, then wake herself up because she was able to free her left hand. Finally, by the end of the week I gave up and went back to a full swaddle.

Until today. This morning I vowed to try it all again, this time only doing it once a day (so as to not totally stress myself out – or her) and to leave her left arm free while doing a tight swaddle on her right arm and legs. Do you know what? That girl has been asleep for the last hour and a half. Seriously, she has not even made a peep. What is that?? See, here again proves my theory that she’s playing games with us and that you can never, ever predict a baby. But I can see right through her cute little eyes and sweet little smile and I know, I know what’s going on. She’s going to spend the whole week being a perfect angel, sleeping one arm unswaddled, and then BHAM! she’ll change it all up next week. I’m on to you Julia Mabel….

Alas, we’ll see what happens. I’d really like to get her to a point that she can sleep with out being a burrito, especially as she gets bigger and longer. But part of me is a little sad, because she’s a cutie in that burrito. That’s for sure.

***Random hope/desire/prayer/dream/etc*** Dude, I really think Julia might be a lefty like me! I mean, she goes to town with her left hand like nobodies business. So, here’s to having my daughter take after me in some way (seeing as she looks just like her daddy!).

This is an old picture, but you get the idea of the baby burrito in all its silly cuteness.

This morning I told Jonathan we were running low on diapers, but that we were expecting to get some in the mail (present from my aunt) today. His response: “Well, sweetie, you just let me know if we need any. And I can pick some up, Raising Arizona style”.
