Change

We've been through a lot of changes this month.  My maternity leave ended May 15th, but we decided that I would take additional time off work.  I'll get to be home with Will until the end of August, which means he'll be 6 months when I return to work.  I am beyond grateful for the opportunity to spend more time with my little man!  The downside is obviously losing my income for a few months.  I've been dabbling in couponing lately, but I'll be getting a little more "extreme" to get us through the next few months.   I'm nervous, yet excited about seeing how much money we can save.  (I will not be as extreme as the crazies on Extreme Couponing on TLC.  We're more into buying only things that we need, and we don't need 100 bottles of mustard or 50 boxes of cake mix...)

Another major change in our lives is we got a new car!  Wayne's two-seater 1993 Honda Del Sol wasn't exactly conducive to a car seat, so we started looking a few months ago for a new car.  Last week, we found one we loved, and we bought it!

So, we had to say goodbye to Little Black Mini-Me Tic-Tac...


And hello to Foxy!


It's a 2007 Acura TL, and as Wayne said, "it's phat!"  

We are very excited about the changes going on in our lives.  I love my temporary life as a stay at home mom and am soaking up every moment I can with Will!
