It's been quite a while

Yup, it's been a while since I have blogged. I thought that would happen! lol It was some good therapy for me for a little while. The girls started school and are having a great time. They have new friends in their classes and they both really enjoy their teachers and that makes me very happy.

We are still struggling financially, but what's new right?

Also a new thing going on in our life is we are trying to get pregnant! I got my iud taken out in the beginning of September and have been trying ever since. I really want to get pregnant this month so we will have another July baby but I'm nervous it's not going to happen. I fear that us being older and with Nathan taking so many drugs for his back, it is going to take a while to get pregnant.

I have two people who are close to me that are pregnant! My sister (Kim) is pregnant! She finds out the sex of the baby on November 15th which is very exciting! I also found out a few days ago that my sister in law Danielle is pregnant!! THAT is big exciting news!! We thought they were only going to have Georgia, but I guess they changed their minds. :) I'm super excited to have another couple of nieces/nephews!!

Work sucks, but you knew that. ;) I did book one photo shoot (yup, that's it one) but one is better than none right? I'm doing a photo shoot then going back to their house after ward to shoot a surprise birthday party (they are doing the photo shoot to get her out of the house to decorate it). I'm offering a couple of specials, but no one has taken advantage of the. The reason why I have booked the one that I have is because my friend Amanda (owner of Kimberlin Gray Photography) referred them to me. She has been sending referrals my way and I think it is so sweet. She also gave me a backdrop stand that she doesn't use any more. (I'm thinking of offering photo booths for weddings). She has been so helpful and I'm so grateful. She asked in a group if anyone could help her design an ad for her son's church preschool pamphlet thing so I said I could help her and designed one for her. After all the help she has given me I wanted to do something nice for her.

Things are going good I guess. We are battling fleas in the house. We are trying to gather everything we need to get rid of them (stuff for the yard, stuff for the house, stuff for the dogs/cats) so we can do it ALL at once to get rid of them. When we just do one thing (like flea preventative) it doesn't help, they just get right back on our animals. So we are going to cover outside with nematodes, flea bomb the house, put chemical around the edge of the house (baseboard in the house), wash the animals, and put flea preventative on them (we are going to give Hutch a pill so it will not wash off..he has lost a lot of hair because of his flea allergy). Then after we do all of that we have to do a very thorough vacuum around the house every day for at least 21 days. THEN HOPEFULLY we won't have a flea problem any more!! Cross your fingers for us!!

Thanks for listening....I'm off to do some laundry and dishes on this dreary day.

Love Peace and chicken grease
