A Day Late and A Couple Hundred Dollars Short


So, Bella was officially two months old yesterday.  Its so weird.  I swear the first few days with in the NICU seemed like they lasted years and we were never going to get to bring her home, but since then, time has flown by.  I can't believe two months have passed already.

We celebrated by trying to take pictures.  She fought me most of the day but I was eventually able to get her in the tutu and get some some-what decent photos.  They still aren't as great as I'd like (she wasn't too thrilled with the idea of staying still and looking cute lol) but they'll work.  Here are a few of them..









They're not perfect, but I think they turned out alright.  I just love her little feet. haha

Now, as you should be able to tell by the title of this post, there's a lot more going on right now too.  We've been trying to figure out how we're going to afford going back to KS for the holidays this year, and I'm starting to think we're not going to be able to.  We're on a really tight budget and after we pay the bills and everything we have to take care of our cell phone bills, we have to register and insure my car by the end of the month, try to figure out how we're going to make it back to KS (plane tickets will cost us approximately $700 with luggage and everything, amtrak would be about $900, driving would be a pain in the ass), try to tackle Christmas shopping (which will be very skimpy this year), and on and on and on.  I seriously dont know how we're going to manage it all, but I HAVE to get back to KS.  I'm seriously going to lose my mind and probably go on a killing spree if I get stuck here for Christmas.

Ugh.  Okay, enough whining for now.

Anyway.  I have come up with ideas for little gifts that I want to send a few people.  I'm not going to describe them exactly, because I know some of them read this, but I'm going to use my pathetic artistic skills for them.  I already have most of the materials but I dont know if I'll get the time to finish everything.  Its so hard getting anything done with an infant.

Blah.  My brain just stopped functioning.  Bella and Travis are both napping, so I should get something done.  I probably won't, but its the thought that counts, right?
