Frugality...NEVER My Strong Point.

The Profile Picture.

Got the pictures back from Shianne for our profile.  They turned out great and we decided on the photo above to be the ultimate first impression.  Hope it conveys the idea that we are amazing and totally should be parents!  (Thinking I might zoom in just a smidge, hope that's cool Shianne!)  As we are moving into the more exciting and less challenging point of the process (expect for the waiting of course), I find myself wanting to do all of the things that other "expectant" mothers would like to do.  Things like checking into daycare options, choosing a pediatrician, and setting up a nursery.  Knowing that if I were actually pregnant this would already be done makes it difficult to take a few steps back and breathe.  Mitch keeps telling me to be money aware and not to do much baby stuff until school is out.  ARE YOU KIDDING ME!  THAT MEANS HE IS MAKING ME WAIT A WHOLE MONTH AND A HALF!!  If you know much about me and my desire to get all things done that I am excited about in a timely manner, this is going to be a tough situation to endure ;-).  I guess I am going to have to just buckle down, quit looking at pinterest for baby ideas (oh good Lord there are so many!), and try to focus on other things in my life...maybe I will start working on that whole sewing thing.  No better time than the present I suppose.  Wish me luck and good thoughts sent my way for patience and spend-thrifty-ness.   I feel like I make a lot of words up in this whole process.  Also if any of you have ideas or suggestions on the previous topics please shout them out.  I am new at this whole thing and could use a few pointers when Mitch does set me loose!

Excited to have a potential bundle on the way, Ali
