Soooo. I'm undertaking another photography challenege starting on monday. It's called the Expose yourself challenge. Here are the guidelines.
Day 1- My best trait
Day 2- I am influenced by
Day 3- Me in one object
Day 4- My biggest mistake
Day 5- Apple of my eye
Day 6- My favorite fairy tale
Day 7- Business and pleasure
Day 8- (not so) black and white
Day 9- My alter ego
Day 10- I need to change
Day 11- My inspiration
Day 12- When I grow up
Day 13- I love that i am
Day 14- I have grown

So it should be fun and challenging.

What else?

We are moving forward on building our house. It's going to take until December to finish it, but baby steps. =] we had our final consult for the interior (cabinets, carpet, flooring, paint, appliances, countertops, etc). We picked out our lot and everything. I'm going to start doing a bi-weekly picture of the progress i hope. They haven't broken ground yet, but once they open the street i'll do it. I'm excited and nervous, because i know this is just the first step. AJ and I have very "expensive" taste, so we're going to want to update a lot of things we didnt add on at the design center. We just got stock faucets, door handles, etc... and we're going to want to update them. Pluse furnishings and decorations. I just have to constantly remind myself of "baby steps."

I've been kind of looking for a new job, but after the shennagins this weekend think it may get put back on the backburner. I was scheduled to work thurs fri and sat this week, but then found out our sitter is out of town, we had people scheduled to watch lil man, but then they were late and i almost didnt make it to work. I just don't like feeling like my "career" is lower priority so I dono. Right now it definitely is because AJ makes good money on the railroad, and there is no set schedule so I have to be able to watch jayden 24/7... Im not going to sign on to a job knowing that his job will still take priority over mine... so backburner that is.

I've been wanting to do a scrapbook for a LONG time now. I actually have at least three I want to do, but I can't really find the time to do it. Plus I don't have any pictures printed up. I need to do my 365 from last year, a yearly one, and a jayden 0-6 months. Hopefully I can get one of them done in the next couple months. I'm thinking I may just order one from my printing company. it costs like $120 but i think it may be worth it.. we'll see.

Jayden is crawling, almost walking. HUGE! Into EVERYTHING! I'm so excited because i get to get him a whole new wardrobe soon for winter. SO much cute stuff. I just have to wait another month or so, that way it cools down and I can convince daddy that he needs them. hehe.

Anyhoo. that's all I have for now. I'm home alone (this never happens), so I think im going to try and enjoy it somehow. haha.
