But, I’m trying to put that behind me and focus on 2009! :-) This past year has been a year of changes, but not too much. January: The year started off with me home full-time. We met with a budget coach, which prompted me to start applying for full-time work again, and by the end of the…

Last night, long-awaited babies were born to two fellow bloggers. :-) I am very excited for them! Kacie and her husband welcomed their first, Jonathan, early this morning.

I can’t believe that Catherine has already posted her birth story! :-) Congrats to you both!

As you know, my birthday is coming up! (There’s even a countdown to it on my sidebar!) Only 8 days! This year’s birthday is special because I’m turning 26 on the 26th. Paul is looking for ideas of what to do on my birthday. He asked me what I wanted. I wasn’t sure. Most of all, I want to be surprised. I love being surprised with good things. :-) So I don’t want to give him any ideas because then…
