Mathew Meanderings: July 2015
http://joshandtamara.blogspot.com/2015_07_01_archive.html
A little glimpse into the everyday life of the Mathew family. Thursday, July 2, 2015. Last month I was asked to be a guest blogger for preemie support and awareness. I shared about our time of "quarantine" which I was originally going to write for my blog, so I decided I would just share the link. With you all if you haven't read it yet. I hope to write more of just regular life again soon. I sure do keep busy as a mom of five though! We are so very blessed! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). JD and Katie Garn.

Mathew Meanderings: December 2014
http://joshandtamara.blogspot.com/2014_12_01_archive.html
A little glimpse into the everyday life of the Mathew family. Monday, December 29, 2014. Drowning in the Storm. Throughout my weekend of bed rest in the hospital, I got progressively worse. My blood pressure continued to climb. They now wouldn't even let me move from my left side at all. I still was doing the urine test to check my protein levels, but was forced to use a bedpan now. Not long after I was talking with Josh the doctor came in. I am only 31 weeks and 3 days along? That is TOO early! I called...

Mathew Meanderings: The Storm's A Comin!
http://joshandtamara.blogspot.com/2014/12/the-storm-comin.html
A little glimpse into the everyday life of the Mathew family. Thursday, December 11, 2014. The Storm's A Comin! I told Josh at lunch that I was going to call the doctor again after I put Ike down, and to be on alert that I may need to go in for an appointment, so he should try and keep his schedule a little loose. He was heading into a meeting at that time, and told me to just let him know. We are going to have to admit you. We will run some blood tests and a urine test and see how you are doing.". They ...

Mathew Meanderings: February 2014
http://joshandtamara.blogspot.com/2014_02_01_archive.html
A little glimpse into the everyday life of the Mathew family. Friday, February 28, 2014. Two months later.). I hate that I can't figure out how to put pictures from my computer onto here anymore. I love to blog, but I really think the pictures share far more than I can write. So I have been loading blogposts from my phone, on to here, and then editing them from my laptop. There must be a better way! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Alex and Elizabeth Minium. Ben and Emily Mathew. Brad and Rachel Hunt.

Mathew Meanderings: September 2014
http://joshandtamara.blogspot.com/2014_09_01_archive.html
A little glimpse into the everyday life of the Mathew family. Monday, September 29, 2014. One "Step" Closer to Recovery. Today was another great day of healing for Josie. This is truly an answer to prayer how fast she is recovering, as everyone who cares for her burns remarks at how quick and unheard of her recovery is. Today was the last day of the arm bandages, which means that out of her torso, arm, and thigh, she only has a bandage left on her thigh! Tonight we tried out some crutches too! Thanks for...

Mathew Meanderings: Feels Like Forever
http://joshandtamara.blogspot.com/2015/03/feels-like-forever.html
A little glimpse into the everyday life of the Mathew family. Thursday, March 26, 2015. When Emma was born, I remember just wanting to hold her all the time. The nurses would take her to get her hearing checked, or check her bilirubin levels, and it felt like an eternity until she was back. We had friends who delivered their own little boy very early, and were super helpful with helping us navigate this new world of the NICU. They helped set up a page on Facebook. That magnesium sulfate is brutal! During...

http://joshandtamara.blogspot.com/2014_10_01_archive.html
A little glimpse into the everyday life of the Mathew family. Saturday, October 25, 2014. I have been trying for a while now to write a post on the birth of my newest son, Ezra. I just haven't been able to put it into words yet. It was pretty traumatic for me, and I am still processing some of it. In the meantime though, I want to shout to the world that he is here! Arriving at 31 weeks and 3 days, little Ezra Henry Mathew was born on October 12th, weighing 3lbs 8oz and 16 inches long. Jo wanted to bring...

Mathew Meanderings: Holding on to Truth
http://joshandtamara.blogspot.com/2015/02/holding-on-to-truth.html
A little glimpse into the everyday life of the Mathew family. Saturday, February 21, 2015. Holding on to Truth. Or even the first time I saw him. These are moments I treasure with each of my children, and hold them dear to my heart. I am so thankful for a husband and Linda who have helped me peace the story together. While I was coming to in the recovery room, Josh was with our tiny little boy. Our little boy came out crying! This is something that is a miracle in itself. He took his first breath! As I w...
