New furniture

We were blessed on Sunday. We got a lots of picture frames, a love seat, two chairs, two ottomans, two end tables, and a wood table that we are making into a island in the kitchen, all for FREE! Sue's store is moving to a new location in the mall and throwing everything in the old store away, can you believe it, it's so wasteful. So they told their workers to take what they want and Sue got us all that stuff. So we spent all Sunday picking up the furniture and rearranging our front and back rooms with the furniture. If anyone needs an old comfy couch with a green slipcover let us know, it's in the garage right now.

We are in a 6 week class right now called Fireproof your Marriage. It's uses the movie "Fireproof". If you have not seen this movie, you need too. It is really good, bring tissues.

Abigail had her one month check-up (it was two weeks late :-) She weighs 10 lbs and is 22 3/4 inches long now. She is stretching her newborn footed outfits to the max, they are not going to last for long. I had my 6 week check-up and I have lost 24 lbs, yeah me especially since I only gained 15 with Abby. So now I can start exercising.

My little girl turns two in less than two weeks, next Friday. It is going so fast. She is really talking now and can tell me what she thinks, which is fun.

We are going out on Saturday for Valentine's Day. Not your typical movie and dinner. We are going out during the day and going shopping without the girls and actually take our time looking at things and maybe eat somewhere there is not a playplace or value meal! Pretty exciting when your a mom and dad of little ones. Thank goodness for grandparents to watch the girls.

The heat in our house

I thought it was cold in the house this morning so I turned up the heat. I went back later and it was 56 degrees. So we had to call the heating and air guys, of course our warrenty is up and had to pay $159 to get a little hose tightened and shorten. The guy said he thinks that will do it but call him if it happens again b/c that could mean its the circuit board which of course is over $200. Oh the costly things in life.

We got the girls pictures taken. They turned out well and we got them back today. I love getting pictures back. I will look at them a million times.

Happy B-day Joey, the big 30!!
