Wow!

Oops, I totally forgot I even started a blog.

Cadence will be 1 next month and is starting to walk! It is so cool. She is so proud of herself. She is cutting her 8th tooth! Faith had 4 at a year old. Faith is still not potty trained. I actually put her on the toliet and she got up and peed on the floor! She holds it and when she feels like she needs to go, asks for a diaper!

I am going to women's retreat with my church this weekend. I am excited and nervous. I didn't think I would be nervous, but I am. It is my first time leaving Cadence and it is with a new church. I really just want to go with an open mind and an open heart. My parents are taking the girls for the weekend since Steven is working all weekend. I know my parents will have a great time with the girls. I am hoping to pick them up and have Faith potty trained. I doubt it, but one can hope.

Steven and I are really trying to decide as to whether or not we should have more kids. It is such a hard decision to make. If we do have more we want to have the close together which means we need to start trying like now! Every other day I change my mind if I want more or not. I just don't know. Neither of us now. It is something we just need to keep praying about.

I am finally doing things around the house I have been putting off forever!. Over the last 4 days I have gotten a lot of stuff done. I have cleaned out my closet, bathroom drawers, the laundry room, re arranged the girls bedroom and more! It is great, I am not even close to done! I am hoping to leave my house Friday spotless! Inside and out!

1 more day

My last day working is October 30th!!! I am so excited. I am really looking forward to being a fulltime mommy again! I am glad that I tried the working thing, but it really isn't for me right now. I need to be home with my kids and my husband. My heart is just no in my job anymore.

Being home means MANY things for me!
1. routine for the girls
2. helping Steven out more
3. getting back to the gym on a regular basis
4. getting more involved in my church
5. keeping the house clean
6. learing how to cook!

Needless to say, it will be good. I just have to make sure that I put in the effort to make it all worth it. Not that it isn't worth it to be home with your kids. I just need to make sure that I stay motivated and focused on the things that are importnant.

My 1st blog 10-8-07

This is my very first blog. I have folded to the pressure and decided to start my blog. So here goes nothing!

Life with my girls is wonderful. Faith is 2 and Cadence is almost 6 months old. They are showing differences already! Cadence is so active and is trying so hard to crawl. Once she figures it out there will be no stopping her! Faith is really trying to test her mommy & daddy with her little 2 year old attitude. Whether it has to do with napping, eating, cleaning up or bed time, she is pushing the buttons! I love that kid, she is such a happy child. She loves animals! She is always asking for me to sing her Old McDonald, which she calls e i e i o! :)

I am trying to get out of working right now. I am praying that the insurance will work out so that I can be out of there before the month is over. I feel like I am missing out on time with my girls and being more involved in Steven's life. It is time to go back to being a stay at home mom. I don't regret my time back at work, it just isn't for me with such young kids at home.

I am so excited about getting back to the gym! Once Cadence turns 6 months old I can finally make it back to the gym and I can go whenever I want. :) I can't wait to get these last 5 pounds off and hopefully a little bit more. I know I can do it, I just need that motivation that only comes from the gym.
