Hello

This is my first blog so I am learning as I go. This week is going to be busy. We HAVE to get our passports in today, mail photos out to family, pick up some clothes in Hartford for Max and get out of the house. My cell phone has been acting up also so I have to figure that out too.

So... this week for dinner I have planned the following:

Monday: Spaghetti w/mushroom and meat sauce
Tuesday: Chicken in a mushroom and wine sauce with potatoes and green beans
Wednesday: Kielbasa Skillet
Thursday: Tacos
Friday: Salmon Fillet, Rice, Parmesan oregano cauliflower
Saturday: Grill out at the park
Sunday: Chili ... my Grandpa's recipe!

Max
Max has 4 teeth coming in right now. He is getting more brave with walking. He has started to throw mini temper tantrums already... he gets mad when he can't have something and rolls around on the floor crying. I really don't know what to do when he acts like that so I don't encourage it. He likes to try to flush the toilet.. the bathroom seems to be his favorite place these days. We have started keeping the door closed.

We moved the toys to his bedroom!!! After having our living room, dining room, kitchen, hallway and sometimes our own bedroom run over with toys... we moved everything into his bedroom. I have to say everything looks much cleaner already.

Andrew & Jessica
Andrew is crewman qualified! Congrats Babe!! He is currently working on being Engineer qualified. Andrew has been in the USCG now 15 months! It seems like just yesterday he was shipping out to New Jersey.

I have started clipping coupons and looking for deals to save us money. After a lot of searching on the web, I came across a neat idea to save and organize all my coupons. I will have to post that later and give the woman credit. I believe the website is beingfrugalisfabulous.com? Also, my cousin-in-law, Lora Mortier because I wouldn't have started this blog if I have not been following hers! She really gets it all done!

I am currently enrolled in online schooling to finish my degree. Right now I am in a class for "Management in Organizations." I don't quite like online schooling because it is very different than in the classroom and I don't feel I am getting the most out of my education. I am going to stick with it for now and see where it leads me. If I still feel this way at the end of the year I am going to enroll into a traditional school for Fall of next year.... will I ever get out!!??

That is all I have for now. I will try to make a blog Sunday with pictures and recipes of the foods I made this week. Off to get things ready for our busy day!
