Hi ho, hi ho, its off to work I go...

Yes, I am going back to work. My heart is torn at this decision. I know that we are at a point in our lives that this is necessary, but I have truely enjoyed being at home for my girls.

So, I'm singing, "hi ho, hi ho, it's off to work I go", because I need to. I need to keep singing. I need to trust that God knows what is best for my family.

It's still hard for me, as I want so badly to stay home. Someone told me this weekend that an easy fix to the problem would be to have another baby. As tempting as that sounds, I am not there yet.

So, I may be Grumpy Dwarf singing, but I'm singing none the less.

A year gone by

I cannot believe that a year has gone by already. I remember so vividly seeing Natalie with her long arms and legs for the first time, and getting to hold her. And now she is my little girl with loads of personality.
Natalie, we are so thankful to God for blessing us with you. We are confident that God will teach us so many lessons as you grow, and will bring us closer together as a family because of you.

My pumpkins

I thought it was neat that I had two pumpkins for Halloween yesterday. Here's some pics of Chelsea and Natalie in their costumes. Can you tell my girls love eachother?

And the pumpkins were carved by Chelsea. She did a great job!
