Oops!

It's been awhile, sorry. I am bad at keeping up with this, but trying to get better. Not a whole lot to report from here, though. That's sad.

Madelyn spent two weeks in Michigan this summer with my parents and Matt's mom and step-dad. We dropped her off when we went up for a wedding and then she stayed with my parents at the lake. We had another wedding the following weekend in Tennessee so it was nice not to have to worry about finding a sitter or having to hurry back to pick her up. Matt's mom flew back to Atlanta with her and she was so excited to see us! We met her at the gate and all she could say was "Hi mommy!" about 10 times! She adjusted back into daycare pretty well but is still excited when I come get her.

I guess the biggest news is that baby #2 is on it's way! We are due February 19, 2012! Not sure what we're having yet, should know at the end of September. I am 14 weeks now and feeling ok. Check out the new blog for baby to get updates on that (www.douglassbaby.blogspot.com)

My biggest desire is to be a stay at home mom once this baby comes. I've been looking for ways to cut our budget and have been pretty successful. I've been praying about it for quite awhile now. There are things going on at work that I don't agree with and that aren't ethical and it's really frustrating. It's hard to go to work in a good mood only to have that change when the boss walks in. You never know what the day holds and things change all the time and it's just so frustrating and hard to deal with when you know it's not right. I have looked for a few jobs at the local hospital, a few part time or PRN (just 5 shifts a month and one holiday a year) I would actually bring home more money doing that then what I do now and Madelyn would only have to be in day care 1 day a week!!! God knows the desire of my heart and I'm just praying something works out soon.
