I sat down to examine our finances about two weeks ago, and as I started considering where our savings accounts are at now, how much we’re putting away monthly, and how much we will be able to put away in the future, I started wondering whether August makes the most sense for us to start at SEBTS.
The short answer, on financial terms alone, is no. Read on, intrepid explorer →
I’ve been posting much less these past few weeks. Not a surprise; life gets busy, and I’ve been pretty tired.
So has Jaimie; she saw the doctor for a pregnancy test, got some bloodwork done, and found out she’s anemic from the pregnancy.
Combine that with an offhand comment by a coworker, and some pieces of my life snapped together. For a decade or so, I’ve had an incredibly hard time staying awake when I’m bored.

Two days in a row, now, I have called Jaimie on my way home from work. A rough transcript of the beginning of each conversation:
“Hello, Jaimie Dawn.”
“Hi! *belch*“
“You burped!”
“Yes. *giggle* Are you coming home now?”
Two days in a row. I’m eagerly awaiting today’s conversation to see if it happens again. Read on, intrepid explorer →
I just felt baby girl kicking and moving around for the first time!
It is one of the coolest, strangest, most awesome, most mind-boggling things I have ever felt. There is a little person in there, growing – now big enough that when she moves and pushes or kicks against the womb, I can feel it. Read on, intrepid explorer →
Jaimie thinks she might have felt our little girl kick for the first time last night! Exceptionally exciting! (I still find it extraordinary that there is a small person growing in there.)
