Welcome to my newly re-designed blog. I am glad you stopped by to visit. My name is Jennifer and I am a breast cancer survivor! In my blog you will read about the everyday happenings of a stay at home mom of 3 girls: Sara, Chloe and Delaney.

About me: Christian, 37 years old and happily married to Scott since 2001. I have 3 sisters and my youngest sister is also my identical twin.

Finally Posting

I know it has been a while since I posted. I am not good at doing it everyday. Things are going ok. Delaney has had a cold again. She has just had a runny nose which leads me to think it is allergy related. She hasn't had a cough or anything. She is doing well without the pacifier. Except she wakes up and wants me to come and get here. I am going to have to break her of that. I think she may be ready for potty training. She took her diaper off and peed in the floor and then ran to the bathroom and said potty. That could be a sign :)

My mom is having kidney trouble. She has kidney disease and she is going to have to go on dialyisis soon. She seems so calm, I know that has helped me thru the years, but I know she has to be concerned even though she doesn't tell us kids about it. I know it is going to change her life. I just hope she doesn't get down about it. Pray for her.

Scott is doing ok. He really stays tired. We are going to get a treadmill and a total gym with our income tax. He really needs a way to exercise and he misses it. He worked at a gym for a while. He has gain some weight since we were married. (so have I) It doesn't bother me except for his health. I want him to be healthy. We can help each other. Does anyone else out there have communication problems. I feel like I really do well and then BAM I screw it all up. I am not sure sometimes what to do. I want to be the wife the Lord wants me to be. I am not sure on how to do that sometimes. I know pray! That is what my mom is saying as she reads this!:)
We are going thru dave ramsey's financal peace course. I am looking forward to getting out of debt.

I am looking into going back to work. There is part of me that doesn't want to but Scott is really feeling the financial pressure of all our bills. I would have to be comfortable with who keeps Delaney before I can even do that though. I have looked into it alittle, but not alot. I may have to work at night. Who knows.

Sara stayed home today. She has a lot of sinus problems. I think she could have went to school. But she said she didn't sleep much last night and she really felt bad. She took a good nap and I gave her some medicine that helped. She wasn't running a fever, but I can seeing this turning into a sinus infection. I pray it doesn't.

Sara is wanting to go the the Valentine dance at school. I am really having a hard time deciding. I don't know what to do. I guess I need to let her experience life. I just don't want to give in to things because other parents do. I am not being her best friend,but her mom. Any suggestions? I will take all I can get. She will be turning 16 this summer, and that seems to be the golden age for kids to get there liciense and drive and date, but I don't know if that is such a good idea. But then I have to be able to trust the way I raised her too.

Well I guess I have posted enough. I will try not to wait so long!
