what a week...

It's been a long one and it's not over until 5:30 tonight when Phil gets home from his new second job! We're working on becoming debt free, Dave Ramsey style! We've calculated our finances and it should be all paid off (including house) in less than five years! That's going "gazelle" crazy and paying stuff off left and right. We have put ourselves on a very tight spending budget, so that means no more "just for fun" family visits. Sorry guys! It won't last forever though, just until everything but the house is paid off(2/3yrs). As D.R .would say "live like no one else, so that later you can live like no one else." It will be so worth it in the end.
So, that is partially why it's been such a long week. We have added hours to Phil's work schedule, so our 8 o'clock supper will need some getting use to! Along with the kids adjusting to the MORE mom time and I thought being here 24/7 it was impossible to have more mom time. lol! It somewhat reminds me of when Phil was working in Cedar Rapids during the week and traveling home to Boone on the weekends! Only it's not just Jaz and I (old preg. self) anymore! We have Miss Londyn here to keep us on our toes too! She's crawling, crying, teething, chewing, sleeping, playing, eating, pooping, coughing, crying, drooling, snotty, crying a lot these days :-) Those darn teeth won't budge either! She had an opening in her gums the past couple days, I was so excited! Then I checked this morning and it had closed back up :( Oh well!

Anyways, L is at her crying,eating, sleeping phase...better go!

Here I am...

So, what do you think? Yes, I caved into peer pressure and created a blog. "Blog" it's such an ugly word, I hate saying it. Blog. Ugh...

Anyways, I hope YOU are happy that you have another blog to read. You know who you are! lol

I really have nothing to write about at this moment, I guess it will take some time getting use to writing down my thoughts. Mr. Kepler's English class in high school wasn't that inspiring, I wouldn't know why?!? Okay, so that's it for now. Maybe I'll copycat everyone and find my favorite scriptures and quotes to end my blog with....you know...something thought provoking. lol
