What.....a slacker

It's been a while, Internet. Sorry. I've been a busy girl these past few months. It's been great. I love it. I get to wake up to this everyday.
And I get to play with this one.

Although everything runs pretty smooth on a daily basis, we are still working some kinks out. Mostly with the wee ones sleeping. Things are good though. No, things are great.

Domesticated already

I have decided that I am going to make weekly menus. I have always wanted to do it, but never have. I am actually really excited about it. I am trying to stay price conscious though. I can't get carried away, which would be easy to do. The scallops for $25/lb are going to have to wait.

If you have any great recipes, pass them along! I will also post some of the good ones on here from time to time.

Best.day.ever.

On Sunday, Kenny and I sat down and took a look at things. And when I say things, I mean our finances. Last week I wrote about how I did not have a choice when it came to going back to work. My good friend (thanks, Linds!) pointed out some other options that could possibly work out so I could stay home. Well, they worked out! I get to be a stay-at-home mom! Money is going to be a little tight, and I am still looking for something to do part time from home, but we can make it. It is going to be so worth it for our family and I could not be more thrilled about the whole thing! A huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders, and I have no stress anymore. I was so worried about trying to get her on a schedule before I headed back to work. I was worried about a million other things like what I would need to buy for the woman that was supposed to watch her to worrying that everything would go well from day to day when I wasn't there.

I am so grateful that I am now able to raise our daughter, Lennon, full time. I have the best job ever.
