Emily, she is so sweet. Hope you are surviving the blizzard like conditions that you spoke of so eloquently the other day. It's still too hot here. I wish it were snowing, or at least windy. I'd even take cloudy.

I was watching a little "america's next top model" over my lunch break, and Norah blows those girls out of the water!

Where did you get your pictures taken? Britain is due for an 18-month photo soon and I've been debating about where to take him.

Emily, I had no idea you had a blog...I am excited about it though! It is so fun to see pictures of Norah. She is a cutie, and looks so much like her brothers, but in a girly way:) I think I even see a little bit of red in that hair of hers!!

Anyone else?

I just read this scripture quoted in a blog comment thread, alluding to. . .me. 2 Nephi 9:28 28 O that cunning plan of the evil one! O the vainness, and the frailties, and the foolishness of men! When they are learned they think they are wise, and they hearken not unto the counsel of God, for they set it aside, supposing they know of themselves, wherefore, their wisdom is foolishness and it profiteth them not.

It is actually not the first time this month that I've been told through scriptural references that I am a wicked person {my extrapolated take-away from the conversations}. I give up.

When we get a paycheck: 10% tithing right off the top Then, with the remainder (net minus tithing), I divy it up into percentages and put money into different "funds" -- that I keep track of in the back of my paycheck because I'm old school like that. Mortgage: I figure out the percentage it will take to cover my mortgage. Usually 29-30%. I think this percentage needs to stay under 35% of take-home after tithing. Baby steps: 20% goes to meeting financial goals a la Dave Ramsey's baby steps. This means that you focus on one thing at a time, leaving the rest so that your money is not so thinly spread and you can make visible progress. This presupposes that one has abandoned using credit, and i
