The Little Baby Bump

Hello all, lots of changes in the past couple of weeks so here goes. First off, the little bean made itself apparent today. Lindsay sat down on the couch and it was obvious, she has started to show. We all knew it would come sooner than later, because let's face it, Lindsay is thin as a rail. This baby only has one way to go, and that's out. Nonetheless, it was a surprise daddy moment for me as I finally got to see the effects.

The house hunt continues with an asterisk (*). We have recently been reading a great book by Dave Ramsey called The Total Money Makeover. It contains good common sense when it comes to handling money. It features a simple 7 step plan to get out of debt and build wealth (for retirement and college) which we have incorporated into our every day lives. (If you haven't heard of it, check it out. And, if you have heard of it but were reluctant to read it, try it out. It's a very easy read with great advice that most of us need to hear.) So the asterisk basically means that while we are still actively looking for a house we are also not going to step into a bad deal, and are willing to simply expand into a two bedroom apartment for another year in order to save money. So there's that.

There are incredibly exciting opportunities on the horizon for me and my career. I have been making great strides as of late to advance with The Walt Disney Co. and it looks like those efforts are finally going to pay off. No guarantees yet, but a huge part of the process is behind me.

My sister, Melissa, graduates from the University of Georgia (UGA) in the next couple of weeks. Which provides us a great opportunity to road trip up to Snellville. It will be my first time back home in a long time. A great chance to see all the old haunts and catch up with old friends. Plus, most of our immediate family will be there, so good times all around.

I know it's a long blog this time, but don't you feel better and more educated for reading all the way to end! I hope all is well, feel free to drop us a line. Take care everyone.
