So I am just a little stressed this morning…. okay most mornings. I’m having a hard time not worrying about some things. I know I’m not supposed to and I really do feel like God is going to take care of us, but in the meantime, I’m searching for a solution. At what point do [...]

A Bed for Alyx
So, we’ve been thinking about getting Alyx a new bed… in hopes she might actually sleep in it instead of ours… ***sigh*** We want to get her a princess castle bed, but they are so expensive and I just can’t see spending all that money right now. It would be for her birthday, but still… [...]

Give. Save. Live.
So today at church Jonathan talked about money… everyone’s favorite topic, right?! We are in a series entitled FoolProof and are asking the question “What is the wise thing to do?” So this week was “What is the wise thing to do with my finances?” This is a really REALLY hard question to ask and [...]

Bye Bye
Well, in the midst of a busy, busy day, I gave my chinchillas away today. I feel like they will be fine and well taken care of, but it’s kind of sad. I’ve had Chalupa for probably six years and Andy for almost as long. With the new baby coming, we just didn’t have room [...]

But I’m afraid is going to be something major! Anyway, even with the windows up and the ceiling fans going on high, it [...]

Alyx has an Obsession
Alyx has a little shovel that is supposed to be for building sand castles… however, we have no sand at our house, so she has found a new use for it. Lately, she’s been going around the house finding “spiders” and “snakes.” When she “sees” one, she beats the tar out of it with the [...]

Hooray for Alyx!
So Alyx was in the bathtub playing when she decided that she needed to go potty. Now, Frankie has been telling her that if she will go potty that he’ll give her a surprise (he was thinking a sucker). Anyway, when she went, Frankie yelled “Yah! Good job, Alyx!” To which she said, “Stop it, [...]
