I just wanted to update everyone that wants to know about the pregnancy. I went to the doctor Monday and we set a date to be induced on the 23rd of March if I have not had the baby by then. I am hoping and praying that I will have him before then but we will see. I am getting pretty miserable now and I feel like I am starting to have some contractions although they are very random and sporadic. Things are really not to fun at home now that Kyle is working full time it is harder on Kaden that he does not have someone that can get down and play with him a ton. I feel really bad about it and I am really glad that later in the day there are my siblings that play with him and Kyle is really good at coming home a playing with him. I think he will be OK:}
I finished all of the Twilight books finally! The last month it has taken me to read the series has been so odd because the books occupied a lot of my time and thought. I have never read a series of books that I have been so obsessed with in my life. I loved all of the books and I thought that they were well done. The last two books were the hardest for me to read for two very different reasons. Eclipse was hard to read because I really hate Bella for the things that she does. I was so mad that I almost just stopped reading the books! For those of you who have read it you know what I am talking about. For those of you who have not you should read the books. The last book Breaking Dawn was so hard for me to read because of all the weird stuff that goes on the first half of the book! The second half of the book was a little easier to read for me and I got through it a lot faster. Although I loved how the book ended I was so frustrated that I could not put it down until I finished that I think I was madder at the end than happy. I picked a bad time but I might go back and read it again when I can enjoy it more. Anyway I know most of you don't care but I just wanted to share. I would like to hear from anyone who has read the books what they thought of them!
One more thing that I am really excited about and I wanted to write down is that I put together a budget for our family! I am really excited about it mainly because we have more than I thought left over at the end of the month after we pay all of our necessary bills. So I (with the help of my dad) put together a 2 year plan that if we stick to (and we are determined to) we will have ALL of our debt paid off. All our loans that we have ever received from school and family everything! I feel so excited about it because it seems so attainable and 2 years is nothing compared to what it could be. We feel very blessed for Kyle to have a job at such a great starting pay in these hard times!

Hey, I felt the same way about The books as you did. I had to calm down a couple of months and then a reread them. I think I've read the books about 10 times now and I'm still obessed. It still runs in my thoughts but it is my calm now. I can now get through #4 without being too weirded out. ^_^ It's better with time.
I'm excited for Parker to come!
Can't wait!
I had mixed feeling about the Twilight books. I think you summed up some of my feelings for me. But when I read them, I shut down, because I'm so into the book that my house is messy, dinner isn't made and Jack probably needs a diaper change :) At least that is how Craig feels when I get into a good book. So I decided I can't get too far into a book anymore, otherwise, I get lost.
Craig and I have also started to stick to a basic and strick budget. It has been good for me to see what I actually have to spend in groceries each month. Good luck with everything! We miss you TONS!
Read The Host. It's another book by Stephenie Meyer, though it's not connected to the Twilight series. In my opinion it's a much better book, better writing style, better characterization, and a better plot line. It's a more "grown-up" book, it's intended for a little older audience than Twilight whose main focus was young teenage girls. Though, it is a little bit more sci-fi, so a bit "weirder." But I highly recommend it.
I hope you don't have to be induced, and I'm glad things are going well for your family. I hope we can see you soon!
