One Month..

Well, it's official. I went to the doctor yesterday and got my IUD taken out. The doctor told me not to "try" to get pregnant for the first month because my lining is still thin and wants it to have time to thicken back up. If I were to get pregnant right away, I'd have a greater chance at having a miscarriage. So, in which case, of course, I'm not going to actually try to get pregnant for now. And honestly, I think I'm okay with that because I keep having second thoughts. Then, other days, I'm like "it'll be ok if I would get pregnant, we'd be ok". It's just a back and forth thing for me, I guess. 

I think Heath is feeling it too because I don't think he's really all that ready. We don't technically have a house big enough to accommodate another baby but I'm hoping that we'll either get a house soon OR Heath will get a job or something that we could afford one. 

Heath is finally going to be starting his Fire classes at the end of this month because then he'll be qualified enough to get a job with TVA. =) If that happens, we'll probably be moving closer to wherever he'd get a job. This job would be ideal not only because it'll probably be easier on him and our family but the money will be amazing! So, I'm so hopeful this all works out for us. I think many of people know that we live paycheck to paycheck as it is and if we add another baby (even though, I'll breastfeed for the first year), I'll definitely have to budget a lot more than before. ;) But for our family, how can I not?

If you don't know, Heath works as an EMT in Tennessee. He is a Paramedic in North Carolina (where he took his classes and everything) but he hasn't taken and passed his National Registry Test for TN. I'm not sure if he will now that he'll be taking these Fire classes and will hopefully get a job with TVA. But even if he did take his test and pass, that little bit of extra money would help. But we'll make it. 

I think we're only going to have our 2 kids. With how expensive it is to even have kids between diapers, wipes, clothes, etc. I just don't know how we'd afford anymore, much less, my patience! =P Braxton makes me lose enough as it is..we'll see how 2 goes. We have a savings account set up for Braxton and I hope it'll be enough for his first car, house, or college. If things keep going as they're going, it won't be. 

Anyways, there's my little update. I keep having "baby fever"..there are a few people I know that pregnant and I miss it so much!! It was rough for me in the beginning but once that was all over- it was AMAZING!!!!! But I guess that's it for tonight- this momma has to go to bed! 

Until next time! =)

love always.
