Happy Halloween!

Little B's big Halloween debut was a few weeks ago at a Fall Festival with her Aunt Leeann and Uncle Dan.  When actual Halloween rolled around, it was all my sick-with-the-flu-for-a-week brain could do to make sure all the costume parts made it into the same bag.
On Oct 30, Evie and I went to the Mom's group Halloween party at the Church. We only stayed for about 25 minutes.  Since Evie is still not a walker, yet weighs 27 pounds, I just can't hold her for very long.  We had fun saying hi to our friends and to my co-workers.
Actual Halloween day we went to my parents house for a pizza party with my sister, grandparents and mother-in-law.  Evie dressed up (this time we forgot her black undershirt. Thankfully she was wearing a purple sweater!)

We took her for a wagon ride ( an early birthday gift from Grandma and G. Daddy) to the neighborhood cul-du-sac party.  All the kids looked so cute in their costumes.  Some of my favorites were a family of superheros and a little with a pilot costume. Brilliant: store that candy in your rollaboard, girl. 

Evie didn't last too long since it was chilly and her supper time.  We went back to my parent's house for dinner and took turns passing out candy from their house.

Happy Halloween, y'all!

Our Debt Story Part IV: We're Debt Free...now what?!?!

WE’RE DEBT FREE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Before you celebrate with us, make sure you've read Elizabeth's Story , Eric's Story , and How We Climbed Out of Debt . Two and a half years of gazelle-ish-like intensity + the few months prior as emotional primer and slowed spending, we made it!  We paid off over $50,000.  We have two car titles. Closed credit card accounts. Statements from one student loan (and one on the way!) with a $0.00 balance.  All our debt with Eric’s parents is paid off.  It’s. All. Gone. We also paid for my 3 semesters of grad school in cash.  Paid a second car accident in cash (it was minor compared to the first one).  Went to Nicaraga on a Mission Trip in cash.  Went on a 5 day Puerto Rican vacation in cash.  We’re up to date on medical expenses for the baby in cash.  All while squeezing in travel for weddings , babies, family reunions, half-marathons , mini-vacations and to see out of town friends...in cash! ...

Evie: Five Years

Where has the time gone? Our first born is FIVE! One whole hand.  Three months late is better than never.  We love you sweet Evie Girl! Weight:  48lbs Length/Height:  44 inches  Eats:  3 full meals, 1-2 snacks, 10-15oz of water, 5oz of almond milk Diapers:  Pull Ups at Night Clothes:   6-7 or 7-8 Shoes:  12W Teeth:  All are accounted for, nothing loose yet Sleep:  8pm-7:30am + a rare, but welcomed car nap every few months Milestones: Evie went to PT this year for poor muscle tone and a weak core. A lot of this was due to (but also contributing to) her constipation history. After 4 months of weekly physical therapy and diligently doing her homework, Evie caught up to her peers. She's been seeing another specialist for her tummy.  She's not 100% on her medication, but we haven't had any set backs or any more vomiting or constipation.  Evie can do basic addi...
