08-4-2009 - I\'m finally doing it...

My mood while writing this blog: HaPpY

So like ALL of you know and if you don't your going to lol I did some big time spring cleaning the week my husband was gone for New Orleans. I'm so proud of all the work my mother and I put into it. I'm now getting things ready for a garage sale. OH MY GOSH its very stressful pricing things because I know what they are worth and they are all in really good condition. I'm pricing things higher than I really want for them so that they can talk me down to what I want to sell them for. They will think they are getting a deal and I'm happy with what I sold it for.

If anyone has advise on garage sale's please let me know this is my first time doing it.

Update on the Girls...

Clarissa will start Pre School on August 30, 2009. We got her signed up yesturday and will find out which Pre School she's able to get into. We had to put in order our first 3 choices. I will be happy with the first two on my list but the religion based Pre School is the one we are hoping for. Its also the Pre School I went to when I was 4 years old. Different location and teachers but still. I'm very exited about Pre School as well as Clarissa. Right now she wishes instead of her birthday coming up that August was lol. She's still doing wonderful with writing her name's, ABC's and she is even learning to mix colors together. She loves mixing red and blue to make purple. She is also into measuring. We measure allot of things all the time.

Kimberly is doing great talking constantly and learning form her sister. She has gone #2 a few times on the potty but I'm still not pushing her so its only once in awhile. She is very good at telling me Potty and then going. She loves dresses and I'm teaching her how she has to hold her dress to use the potty lol. She is going to be 2 Years old in 8 days. Her small party is on April 18th which happens to have been her due date and the day we came home!!!

Saving money...

Right now all the lights are off and we are using natural light. The girls T.V. is on in the play room for T.V. time. We are also giving the girls their baths together and every other night. We were giving baths every other one everyday. So We are cutting out 3 baths a week. I also think I found a local family with an older daughter that is willing to hand down her cloths to me. So we will be saving allot of money with not having to buy cloths for Clarissa. With April started I'm working on new ideas of how to keep saving money I hope to put at least an extra $100 twards debt a month even though thats my whole pay check (soon to be) I'm hoping to find a new child for day care so we aren't hurting for to long. I know that the good Lord is watching over us and knows what is instore for the future. We just hope and pray that in 4 years to have everything paid off including the van.
