The past few weeks have been really exhausting. Chris has been working a TON of overtime and it feels like we rarely see him. Tonight I was supposed to go to a Ladies progressive dinner with the church and I was supposed to leave 10 minutes ago...needless to say, I'm not going. Chris called and is still at work :( He was going to leave early but for some reason, that didn't happen. It's been hard on him and the girls as well.
Will try to blog more soon, when something is actually happening!!

Not much to blog about...
but before the harassing gets any worse, I thought I'd better post!!!!
Most of you know that I've been quite sick lately. Not contageous sick, just "internal issue" sick. Not sure of the cause of it at this point but hopefully by next week we will have some answers. You can pray for me that I would have less pain and more energy!!
BIG NEWS! Hallie went DRY through the night last night. We had a little party and I gave her a Curious George chapstick. Raya pooped on the potty yesterday!!! I can see a small light at the end of the tunnel when I will regain $80/month in my pocket for something other than diapers and pull-ups. I know it is a ways off yet and Raya pooping on the potty was probably a one-time deal since she's only 18 months but hey, it was a glimpse of things to come.
Chris has been working ALOT of overtime lately. It's a crazy time of year for them. I don't mind so much since it's all for a good cause. If it was just so some greedy boss could have more money in his pocket, it would be a different story :) Knowing that Chris is contributing to the fact that unfortunate kids are going to get some AMAZING shoeboxes this year makes it all worth it! We have decided that Chris needs a vehicle again. It's been over a year since he started taking transit and he is "in-transit" for 3 hours each day. It's getting quite wearing so we are on the hunt for a small car that he can commute with. Nothing pretty...just practical.
Well, the girls have been really cute and busy lately. Here's an example of cute...
