Wow! Alot has happened in the past 6 weeks. First, both sons started a new school. JB is in Pre-K now and loving it. Evan is in a new daycare and seems to be doing well. Barrett has been working a considerable amount of overtime and financially we are doing better (not there yet, but better). We are also taking a financial peace class at church and so far it has been really good! I signed JB up for soccer and we bought his equipment this past weekend. His first practice is Saturday. He is super excited. Finally, we found out we are having a girl! Woohoo, we are so excited! So things are relatively good!

So here are my concerns right now:

1. I am completely unable to keep my house clean...lol. While this isn't the end of the world it really bothers me.
2. I have my gestational diabetes test in a month, which could mean a severe reduction in the amount of chocolate I consume.
3. JB is having a birthday soon and have I even begun preparing????? That answer would be no!
4. Evan still isn't really talking and he is 17 months. I am trying not to be too concerned, but JB was talking two word sentences by 1. Evan will say ma ma, da da, and car but not necessarily correctly. He babbles alot.
5. I need to transition Evan to a big boy bed before the baby arrives.

I can't wait for December! If I can't cope with chocolate, I will need alot of Faith and Love!

Made it on Chocolate today!

Today I made it on chocolate. With all the craziness that is my life I turned to chocolate to cope. Another reason for this blog is to curb the chocolate and gain a new coping mechanism...lol. I am currently broke, pregnant with my 3rd child, and dealing with drama from the neigbors. Problem #1 will get worse when baby #3 gets here, but by then I am hoping to have a method to increase the income. Either way the baby is a blessing and no matter what the finances will get better eventually. Problem #3 simply irritates me and makes me want to move.

On a brighter note...I have a wonderful family that I love very much and is very understanding of a hormonal female right now. I have 12 acres of heaven in which I call home. I have a job that I love (just wish I could actually get a raise in this economy). So all in all things are good (even if a bit crazy). So tomorrow I should depend less on chocolate and more on faith and love!
