2. Peter and his rash have consumed my days and nights. Allergy test--negative. Next step--dermatologist. We saw him today. Apparently its a bad cases of atopic dermatitis--or just plain old ECZEMA. The doctor's suggestion--stop lotion--forever.. Vaseline and a $90 topical steroid are to be applied religiously.
3. Did I tell you Daniel is building me a window seat complete with cute baskets to hold our toys. It only took us three trips to Lowe's to actually cut and buy the wood.
4. Is it just me or are automated phone directories worse than getting a root canal. After trying to call four different companies and waiting at least 15 minute before I get to even talk to someone, and then needing to be transfer twice and on hold at least five more times---I think they should be destroyed.
5. Have you heard of Dave Ramsey? We are in the middle of Financial Peace University. Thankfully I've talked our 'saver' into a small BLOW budget every month. And our 'free spirit' has convinced me that my budget committee meetings are always too long and too frequent. So we are compromising.
6. We got our tax refund last week. Any guesses on how we are going to spend it?
7. We pulled out the sled for our snow day yesterday. Fun, fun, fun!
8. The girls and I are planning a Valentine Party for a few friends. Complete with games, crafts, decorations and donuts, it is sure to be a raving success.
9. Peter's new favorite food--anything--and a lot of it. He got a new seat to eat at and as soon as anything lands on it...it's on its way to his mouth. Poor kid is sure we are starving him. He is accepting any food rations.
10. So #6 is a trick question. When you have a saver such as our's in the house you don't spend tax returns--you save them.

I hope his Rash clears up :( I have not been through fincial peace. But I have read the Total Money Make over. We too are saving our tax returns. You never know and having a cushion feels soo good.
Great pics. I hope his rash clears up. Nothing wrong with saving your tax return - that is usually what we do!
I just finished Dave's book - excited to get through the steps! Way to go on getting your tax return back so early! Hope the Vaseline works! Cute pics!
Peter is the cutest boy ever..he fits right in. You made me laugh mentioning Dave Ramsey and then tax return so close together. Of course you're going to save! That Dave making life so much less fun. ;)
Peter is ADORABLE!!! I want to be just like you when I grow up and save my tax return. As for now, tuition calls...
Hugs!
You know, I have never had a tax return big enough worth saving. I'm always much more excited to spend that little bit than save it up. Maybe this year...?
I hope Peter is doing better! You guys are great to save! Can't wait to see you next month:)
