NaBloPoMo/Laughter/Working

So I am going to take the challenge that failed last year. 

The point is to blog once a day for the whole month of November.  Not sure how it will work when we go to Utah or when I go back to work but it is worth a try.  It is all for fun anyway. 

So on to my post.  Andrew laughed and he had an audience of one.  ME!!!  I was giving him a bath and dumping water on him and he laughed.  He has been trying for a while but he finally did it.  He is starting to sleep better. 

I work at the hospital tomorrow.  I know it is going to be an insane day when I get an email asking when I am going to be in.  I love the hospital.  I know I have said it before.  But it really has been a good experience for me.  Plus I think it has been good for me to be away from Andrew for a few days before I head back to work full time.  By the time the kids are out of school for the summer I need to be working somewhere else or part time which sounds forever away but it is just over six months. Somewhere else with hours nights and weekends would be ideal.  But we will put our faith in God and just take it one day at a time. 

Both Lee and I will be able to hopefully work around the kids school and be home when they get home.  The big issue at this point is their random days off of school where we both will have to work.  My parents aren't an option at this point so maybe we can find somebody at church who would be willing to make a few dollars and take care of two adorable kids.  :) 

Well I need to get a few things ready for tomorrow!!!  Should be interesting.

Random Thoughts

I sometimes wonder where to draw the line in this whole blogging thing.  I could make us look like the "perfect" family or I could deal with all of our disappointment and make everybody think that we quite possible have the worse life ever.  Or maybe there is a middle ground somewhere that I have yet to find in this blog.  Today was a rough day.  Don't get me wrong I am so excited that everybody around me is having babies.  But for some reason today I was caught up in the losses all over again.  I am wondering when it stops.  Maybe it never does.  Maybe it will be a life time of wondering what if I would have gone full term.  Several people have asked when (or if) we are going to have another baby.  I am not sure.  Sometimes that answer is yes and sometimes it is no.  But one thing is for certain it isn't right now.  Really I don't need to have a ton of kids to fill some void.  I love my two kids and if that is all ...

February

February was a tough month both mentally and financially.  The light at the tunnel was Phoenix.  Kids had a blast and it was great way to end an otherwise crazy chaotic month.  My goals were blah.  We paid off  more credit card debt then I though but I didn't sew as much as I wanted and I didn't run as much as I should have.  I also didn't read or declutter as much as I planned to.   Although I did reach my goal for losing weight.  So not a total loss. At some point I will file taxes and write a check to the state of Idaho.  I keep putting it off for several reasons.  At some point we will a check from FSA and our gap insurance.  Although a ten page EOB probably will take a while to get through. I think it was just one thing after another and I never felt like I gained my footing.  Maybe because I worked more.  Which lead to more in savings.  Still not where I want to be.  But better then it coul...

Family News

What a weekend.  I blew out a tire 5 minutes into the trip and then had to switch out vans we hit some snow but nothing major.  The kids had a blast playing with the boys and although the bishop spoke too long at the ceremony the wedding was nice.  The reception was nice and the kids ran around with their cousins and Lee and I were able to catch up with everybody on their lives.  I am glad our kids are older and don't need constant supervision.  Several of Lee's cousins have kids in the 12-24 months age range.  That age is so hard and there was no way they would be able to run around with out adult supervision.  It was nice to get some family news like one cousin is a polygamist and another is getting married very shortly.   Another is traveling the world and another has made their home in the mountains.  One cousin is trying to qualify for the Boston Marathon and another is just trying to survive her husband's major depression.  Sev...
