Today is a fun day - it is that day when, once again, 5 Minutes for Mom throws their massive Ultimate Blog Party!! Each year they host a this "party" to introduce bloggers to other bloggers and have a grand time while doing it. It is my third year participating and I've got my drink in hand, my feet up, and I am ready to party!!
If you are new to Musings of a Palouse Mom from the ultimate blog party, Welcome! I am excited to get to know YOU and hope that you stick around and get to know me as well! My name is Renee and here's a little info about me and my blog!
Carl & I have been married for almost 9 years!
We have three beautiful little girls -
What will you find on Musings? ... well, I would consider this a Mom blog that shares my journey of being a farmer's wife, a stay at home mom, a (trying to be) woman of faith, a fitness lover, and even at times a try to be cook...
Musings on country living: I LOVE being a farmer's wife, even during the challenges of busy seasons where my husband is out the door at 5am and not home until after 9pm... I wanted this life from my childhood and never thought it possible until God brought Carl into my life! I write about the our many adventures in our country life.
Musings on family: My family is everything to me. Being a mom of three girls 5 and under is an amazing experience, often challenging, but always entertaining. :) Our oldest has childhood apraxia of speech and is still largely non-verbal. I share about our journey to giving her a voice. Our middle suffered from VUR and had multiple hospital stays with kidney infections until it was fixed, I shared about that and now just share about her antics as a typical but EXTREMELY strong-willed three year old!! Our baby, is just, well, our first typical baby. For the most part you get cute photos of her!
Musings on fitness: I am the mom of three kids and still struggling to get my body back. I managed to meet my goal this fall of shedding all the baby weight and am back into pre-pregnancy clothes!! My over-arching goal is simply to get back to being comfortable in my own skin again! Running is usually my go-to exercise, but I also have been trying to mix it up more. I write about my journey in juggling fitness with motherhood, injuries, and house projects!
Musings on food: I love to cook, bake, can... pretty much anything in the kitchen I enjoy. I'm not necessarily very good at it - some things turn out great, most things turn out ok, and a few things go straight into the garbage... I have a hard time following recipes to the letter which could explain some of my kitchen escapades! I want to share more about my adventures in the kitchen!
In honor of 5 minute for Mom's 2013 Ultimate Blog Party, I am doing a giveaway from a good friend's Etsy shop - My Sweet Potato 3. She makes custom crochet hats and photography props.
Giveaway Ends at midnight April 12th and a winner will be picked via random.org!

Hi,
I come for the party ^___*. You have wonderful daughters. So cute... Nice to "meet" you.
Pls return to see my UBP blog post too in here: http://bit.ly/14IvDly See you at my blog ;)
Stopping by from the UBP - you have a beautiful family!
Being a farmer's wife certainly sounds interesting (it is a lifestyle I know very little about...) and a little bit romantic. I never follow recipes to the letter either. :)

I am so happy that I found your blog a few years ago. Finding other woman that I really feel like I connect with has made blogging worth it and so encouraging to me. Thank you for sharing through your blog.
What a gorgeous family!
And thanks for the chance!

Hi, there-
Stopping by from UBP because Palouse caught my eye. I went to college in Spokane and still have friends and extended family in your neck of the woods. Beautiful part of the country. So nice to "meet" you.
Hopping through from the UBP13!
Your family is so cute! I never follow a recipe either. I don't think it's a bad thing... I do have to be more careful about baking recipes than I do with cooking recipes.
Take care!
Dee
I am visiting with the UBP#13. What a fantastic story, you have such a beautiful family and a very busy life. I can't wait to read more about all of you. Sounds like you have had a few struggles too.

I went to UBP website and found you there! I love your blog website! You have such a beautiful miracle children! I hope to win this baby hat from your friend's Etsy store for my niece/future Goddaughter. Last month, we found out that she's hearing impaired or deaf! Please keep her and her parents in your prayers - she is going to take a few tests to see if she can have a cochlear implant. Thank you! Alisa :)
