And I Manage Another

Wow...so not only did I post twice yesterday on my scripture thoughts blog...but, I follow it up with a newsy blog on Nighspace. That and I will probably update my scripture blog when I study this afternoon. Somebody give me a medal, or a cookie...or maybe just a comment on both blogs. Ooh, that does sound nice!

So, since we last wrote, Lisa continues to be morning sickness free. But, we're anticipating that what misery we are spared at the beginning of the pregnancy will be made up somewhere down the line. At least, that's what I think.

We have actually given some thought to the name of our future offspring. If we have a boy (Oh please, oh please, oh please!) we will name him David Gregor (David after me and Gregor after Dad and Grandpa.) If we have a girl, we aren't completely sure yet...but, we like the name Summer Elizabeth. But, Lisa hasn't given the official stamp of approval on that one yet. So, that is the speculative name of a future daughter. If we manage a son we won't have to think about it too hard and then we will have a little bit of time to think about what name we might want for a girl.

In other news, Lisa has a job again! The most wonderful part of it is: it's daycare! I had been reminding Lisa that she needed to find work so that we could scrape together a little more savings before the big hit when the hospital bills start piling up. I knew she didn't want to get her Target job back or any other sort of dead end job that she would just be miserable in...but, she had been without work for quite sometime and she is only going to get more pregnant from here on out...so, I was starting to feel the tug in my purse strings (figuratively speaking, of course...I don't own a purse.) But, Lisa was very diligent about keeping her Craigslist ad for daycare at the top of the list and she got several calls and e-mails and interviewed with one yesterday and started today. She also has an interview set up with another person this morning. So, that deal may get even sweeter. But, it is really nice to not only have Lisa working again, but working in a job that she can enjoy and a job that will allow her to be home when I get back from work. That and our afternoons will be just about as free as they have been. It is truly a blessing. One we had to wait for...but, all good things take time to be perfectly cliche.

At any rate...I guess that's really all the news I have. Life is splendid and we are quite happy. Love to all!
