Life as a Christian is anything but boring


Hannah and Daddy went fishing...Hannah caught her first fish!


Hannah loves to help take care of her little sister...she is real good at hugging and kissing on her too! She tells us she loves baby Becca.



My beautiful girls at their cousin Ashlee's birthday party at the water park.

I knew God had some big changes in line for us for once Rebecca was born, but this just seems like too much all at once. Our lives have been extreamly busy here lately, not only with the addition of our beautiful little Becca, but we are trying to help Kevin's mom get her house sold and buy a new house for all of us down here. It seems things are coming together, but not without issues that have to be resolved or dealt with in the mean time. Kevin's mom's house is not closing for a couple weeks because the buyers are waiting on their house's sale to close which puts off our close of the new house; then the new house we just found out has radon issues that have to be fixed before we move in. We are trying to coordinate moving all of Kevin's moms things and selling and trashing all her other things, and we have to store them until we get our new house which is another issue. Plus once we get the new house we have to have new carpet installed and the second bathroom put in which is more work for Kevin that he isn't too sure how he is going to work into his schedule. So in conclusion, lots of work, very little time and going insane!

I started back to work this week..whaaa...it really stinks. To make matters worse they have decided to add more responsibilities to my day and have me change my hours from 7-3 to 8-4:30. This causes Kevin to have to change his work day and eliminates any time we have to see one another Monday -Fridays. I also obviously miss out on an additional hour and a half of time with my girls which breaks my heart! Needless to say I am looking for another job that will fit our needs better...it will be hard because not only are there few job opportunities up here, but to find a job that ends at 3pm at the latest will be tough, but I have to believe that God will provide. I am doubting that they will keep our billing department for much longer anyway...they make threats of outsourcing the billing department every time there is a mistake lately so I think it wont be long. Hopefully I wont be here a whole lot longer.

The girls are doing real well. Rebecca is growing so fast and really chubbing out. She has been smiling more often, and she has one of those smiles that brightens a room. Hannah is real good with her...every once in a while she'll ask me to put the baby in the bouncy seat and play with her, but most of the time she wants to feed the baby a bottle or hug and kiss on her. I'm so glad she is adjusting so well...I wasn't sure how she would be. It's hard though not getting to be with them both all day...I feel as though I am missing out on so much. They are changing and growing so quickly. Please pray I find another job soon that will allow me a little more time with them and with Kevin.
