I always have such a hard time thinking about what to blog about as I don't think my life is all that interesting!
But I figured I should try!
We are having Thanksgiving this weekend here for Colin's siblings and we are excited about it! I love turkey and laughing till my stomach hurts! So it should be a good time!
Right now, Colin and I are in the process of discussing about having another babe. Well, it's a very touchy subject for me as Brant's birth was absolutely horrific! I am so scared to do that again! So I've been doing some reading and have thought about researching about midwives. They are covered by AHC and work on the baby's schedule and not work around plane tickets to Hawaii. But I'm curious to as whether or not they accept VBAC patients. So we'll have to see.
We are also in the process of paying off our debt. I'm working about 5-6 shifts a month and that pay is devoted to our debt. So, after crunching numbers and deadlines we figure if we work really really hard, and live off as little as we can, we can be debt free in about 2 years! But certain things need to paid off before others and some I don't care too much about paying off early. So, we are looking at abou 9 months to pay off a few debts and pay off interest on remaining debts! It's really exciting to look forward to things, like being debt free and possibly entertaining the idea of our own home! **GASP!**
So, for halloween I thought it would be cute to dress Brant up as Tigger or Curious George, but NO, the second he set his eyes on a Buzz Lightyear costume, all hopes of getting him to wear anything else went out the window! So I have this cute little costume for Buzz Lightyear and am really excited to get him all done up!
Colin has started as the new early morning seminary teacher, and it's been an interesting month. I'm trying to be supportive and make time for him to study and prepare lessons but it's tough! Colin was going to take a class for business through Althabasca, but I don't think that's going to happen. He's so busy with seminary and work that he would have NO time to study. So that's a bit discouraging as we are told to get an education but his calling to not allowing time to do so.
Well that's all going on in my life. It may be dull and boring but we love it!

Having a baby is a big decision. If it helps, the first time always sucks. Jared's birth was awful and I was at the doctor at least once if not twice a week for the first 2 months!!! But Mady was a breeze. You now know what to expect and what your body does and you're body knows what to do the second time around. I know some people do have a crappy second time but the outcome is worth it.
Jared was Buzz one year and was so cute, I loved it.
Good luck on everything!!!
Wow, sounds like you guys are actually making things happen! Such big decisions that have a great impact on your family! Good luck with everything! Homeownership is rewarding, but scary!
