Video Transfer #5

youtube

Still moving videos from Google to YouTube. There are a couple fun ones here, but the whooping cough video received a lot of attention. Little Havilah whooping as an infant was a scary time for us years ago, but the video has helped other parents identify whooping cough. It is a rare virus that doctors often fail to diagnose.

Staying Healthy During Pregnancy

Healthy Living

Diet Program…for only $5?

Teenage boys can eat whatever they want. Moms need to watch out.

Most “programs” have a high cost to get started. The simple truth out there is that little beats old fashioned healthy eating and good exercise.

Do Large Families Deter Individuality?

No, this is not Cooper Fitzpatrick. This is Micah. He has more individualism than we can manage sometimes.

We had an experience last week between two worlds, two extremes. (1) Smaller is better, gives “individuals” more time to themselves, builds better “individuality” and self-esteem and love for self. (2) Bigger is better, forces “individuals” to relate to others, builds family and relationships and love for others.

Exercise and Pregnancy

I insisted on getting my exercise while pregnant, even if it was simply a 10 minute walk.
