Another busy week, and no signs of slowing down in the foreseeable future. 

This time of year is all about Birthdays around here. 

Dallin is January

Madison is February

Logan is March

Caitlyn is April 

followed directly by Christian in April

Then there is a new calling at church to add to that, but I am so enjoying the change it is bringing into my life. 

Another big Change around here happened when Christian completed his first level of schooling. He now is taking EMS calls as often as possible, he is also preparing to start the EMT level of schooling up in Calgary. He is liking this new facet in our lives and I see him smiling a lot more with the changes. 

It has been a struggle though getting here. The budget strings have been really tight and we are learning to live a bit more frugally than before. But I cannot wait until I can buy a few new things for myself. 

I am in desperate need of some new clothes.

I have been doing a lot of online window shopping (is that what you call it?) And I have found some very cute dresses that I would love to get. You see I now have to sit at the front of the relief society room and all my previous sunday attire was built for Primary. I feel so under dressed and frumpy! And it doesn't help when the sisters I work with are such classy dressers. In fact I feel like the only one around me that is under dressed. 

My self esteem in this area is not the greatest, due to my size (which I am working on) and I truly hate to buy things for myself because of the guilt I feel when I do. I am told it's a mom thing always buying for your kids first and My kids need so much right now. 

They have all grown so much this year. Logan is walking around in capris (not quite but close) and Madison has holes in all her pants. Dallin is sleeping in Pajamas that should have been sent down to Logan a while ago. 

But relief is finally around the corner. 

You see when Christian signed up with the Towns EMS they said they would reimburse his schooling. And finally it is here. So now I can get the kids what they need and maybe order the dress I want to get for church so I can feel like a lady too.

And I love this Dress from Shabby apple. But right now they are out of my size. Boo!!

I am waiting for the email to tell me it is in so I can order it.

I like this one too but I am not sure if I want to get it. I do think it would look amazing with some turquoise with it!

Like this necklace would be perfect. 

Anyway I have been window shopping and these things are definitely on my wish list.
