Life is what happens while you are busy making other plans.

Life has been happening lately.

Here's a few highlights from the past month:

  • Aubriella started pulling herself.
  • Aubriella started crawling on her hands and knees (no more army crawling).
  • My parents visited from Florida for a few days.
  • Adaleigh has pretty much perfected writing her name.
  • Aubriella turned 9 months.
  • We got a new washer, dryer, and refrigerator.
  • Alex planted a million plants in our backyard including a beautiful vegetable garden!
  • I've reduced my hours at work from 35 to 20 per week.
  • We paid off my medical debt and some of our credit card debt.
  • I battled with anxiety for the first time in my life for one very long week. 
  • We've updated and added new decor to our home.
  • I passed two pretty tough online classes... 5 more to go!
  • We're planning a trip to Jackson Hole, WY in July for my cousin's wedding.
  • Adaleigh had her Easter Egg Hunt at school.
  • It's Adaleigh's Spring Break! :)
The list could probably go on if I sat here and thought about it. I'm so fortunate to have such an awesome family. I absolutely adore my girls and my husband. 




















Lately I've been thinking about where I want to be in 5 years. My sister's just celebrated their 30th and 32nd birthdays this past week, and it's got me realizing that I'm not too far behind. I'm very happy with where I am now, but I'm curious to see where the future may take us. I am beginning to set goals again. 

A few goals that I'm willing to share:
  1. Finish my degree.
  2. Pay off ALL credit card debt by using Dave Ramsey's debt snowball.
  3. Get Adaleigh involved in sports and activities. She'll be doing swimming lessons and ballet this summer. Possibly tennis, tee ball, or soccer.
  4. Attend church regularly.
  5. Lose the 15 pounds I gained when I was preggo with Aubriella and still haven't lost.
  6. Sell our house and move to a nice, well-established neighborhood in a good school zone.
  7. Possibly add another little one to our family. 

That's all for now. I'm off to watch a movie with my hubby. <3
