well, it's been well over 6 mos since my last post. we have been busy and a lot of things have changed.
we now have a one year old! yes, little olivia is now one! i can't believe that it has been over a year since we have been blessed with her life. she's been walking now for over 2 mos and has a pretty extensive vocabulary for her age. she loves to "read" her books and take care of her baby abbey. she truly is one of the best things that has ever entered our lives.
as ben and i, we have recently moved in with his parents in an attempt to pay off all our bills and save for a home. we were just really tired of renting. it is certainly an experience living here, although we are grateful for the opportunity. i am finishing school ( i should be completed by this time next year!) and ben is preparing for his physical test for a firefighter position here in town. we are really praying that he gets this job. it will double our income and give ben a lot more time at home and allow me to finish school without worrying about finances the entire time. please keep us in your prayers!
