busy buys

Well I've been telling TJ for a while now that I'd love to find a job part time in the evenings and weekends when he's home to bring in a little extra cash but still stay home with Jaeden. The other day we got the base paper and it had a job listed to work in the commissary on base stocking food. So I called and asked about the hours and all. Its only evening because we wait until the store is closed. He asked me to start the same day. So I did.

Its an ok job. I mean its not great, but it fits my criteria. I get to stay home with Jaeden still, I dont pay daycare and I am still making a little bit of money. Its very hard though, I've only been doing it for two nights and my fingers, knees, and thighs are killing me. I think I will get use to it though. I'll love the results I'll see in my thighs if this keeps up ;) I got some gloves today to wear also, hopefully that will help my fingers.

My main goal is to save everything I make for my trip to see my brother (Charleston SC in Sept) and the rest is going to be saved for our Christmas trip to Florida.... lots of gas money and presents to buy. TJ even wants to do it a few nights a week when I'm not. Its very flexible, I pick the days I want to work and the hours I want.

Nothing is really new with Jaeden. She's adorable and busy as ever. We did have to switch her diapers back to Huggies, the Luvs gave her a rash constantly. After less than 24 hours off of the Luvs her little bottom is almost healed!

She spotted an Elmo balloon at Wal-Mart the other day. The thing had to be 50 feet away and she's pointing at it saying "Elmo." She can say Elmo and baby and Chara (dogs name) very clearly now.
