Update on our drama and other fun stuff

I am pretty stressed about Adam's tuition. I know things will work out, but I sure wish they would work faster. I hate feeling like I failed. We tried so hard to get out of debt and save up our money just to be put back into the situation that we were in when we were in school before. We are once again in the red. I was just hoping to start grad school with more money then when we did for our undergrad. We would have been okay, but we had to pay out of state tuition. We are only two months shy of living here for a year. It is just so frustrating. I am the one who deals with the money and I keep thinking where could we have cut back, but really we did great up until this point. We saved and got out of debt with in like eight months. I was very proud and excited for us. I thank Adam's parents for letting us live with them. It really helped us get out of debt for the whole week that we were. Sigh...I am just upset about this whole thing. It will work out. We are still waiting to hear back from FAFSA to see if we can get a loan. I know loans are good for school, but I expected to get one later on when we really needed it. Sigh...Well at least Adam loves his classes and enjoys reading his textbooks. I think he will get really good grades this semester and maybe qualify for one of the apprenticeships his department offers. They give you free tuition if you get one of them. I am go for it Adam. I want him to do his best and learn as much as he can. It will be easier for him once he can really focus on his classes and is not commuting from Norcross to Athens. It is like a two hour trip due to traffic. We will get there. Otherwise things are great. I have seven weeks before the baby is due. James is so much fun and full..I mean full of energy. I love him. He keeps me on my toes and makes me laugh all the time. He now loves Hannah Montana (thanks to his Aunts and Grandmom) and balloons. Oh I can't forget his greatest passion BALLS! He can't get enough Balls. I think he could open up a store with all the balls he owns. His favorite Sunday afternoon thing to do is throw the ball with his Grandpop and Greg. He thinks that is awesome.

No time for rest

This pregnancy is so much harder on my body than the last one was. I am so tired all the time. All I want to do is sleep. I feel so bad because I have this little boy who wants to play and is so cute. I want to teach him things and take him places like my dad did with me. In reality all I want to do is close my eyes. I don't sleep to well at night which is making things worse. I was going to talk about this with my doctor today, but when I got to my appointment he was not in the office. My doctors office is like 20-30 minutes away from my house depending on traffic. I was a little upset no one let me know. They asked if I could come back this afternoon, but I am not driving out there twice in one day. I rescheduled for next week. I guess one more week of not sleeping won't kill me, right? Any suggestions on how to not feel inadequate when I am so large and sleepy?

Yippie we got tickets

Yesterday we bought tickets to fly home for Thanksgiving!!! Well I guess my parents home. I am so excited to see my parents and siblings. I haven't seen them since Spring Break. I guess that was not that long ago, but it sure seems longer. I am looking forward to just hanging out with them and showing off my new baby and of course my almost two year old. I love it when I show James a picture of my dad he says, "Grandpa!" He knows who he is. He loves reading my my mom's blog and looking at all the pictures of my siblings. He laughs at their videos. I think it is cool how there is a family connection even though we are so far away.

Super Baby

Adam and I got home from our temple trip to Birmingham, AL and found James in the cutest outfit ever. Adam's family went to Six Flags on Friday and Grandmom bought him a Superman outfit. James looked awesome in it. It was so cute he wore it to our friend's party. I thought my little brother Andrew would get a kick out of these photos.
