Love this Baby!

Kasen is seriously the best baby ever, and no I am not just saying that because i am his mom. Other peope have told me that too! I cannot get enough of him.....

Rice Cereal

I was going to wait until he was officially 5 months old, but he just seemed so interested in everything we ate. He was envious. So I just thought I would try it and see how he does.

(He turns 5 months in 12 days)

Does he like it? You be the judge!

Toys EVERYWHERE!

I can't stand it anymore! I feel like my house is constantly a mess and I am the only one who seems to care! I spend all day long cleaning up toys and random crap or yelling at my kids to clean up their messes. So today I had had ENOUGH! After I asked Lucy to go up and clean her room, and she had come down and LIED to me and told me it was clean, that was my last straw. If they can't respect their home and their stuff, they don't get to have stuff. I got fed up tonight and packed everything up and put it away. Well not everything, I am not that terrible. The only things left to play with in this house are 3 balls, Blocks, and Books. We told Lucy that in the next week if she takes care of these and makes sure they are put away before bed every night then she could earn some of her toys back. Which I am sure she will want her ponies, since she was upset to lose them.

Being a parent is so hard. 3 is so much harder than 2. Today was one of those hard days where I had to teach them a tough lesson. Jake couldn't care less. He is a little young to learn anything from this, but he is okay with blocks and balls. They will survive. Call me mean... I don't care. I need my sanity and a clean house helps. I feel like kids grow up more humble if they are happy with the bare necessities. maybe not. but I think this is a good thing.

So if you want to get my kids birthday or christmas presents make it clothes or educational... We have enough toys. Thanks!

get out of debt

Okay we have finally made the commitment to get out of debt! So part of Dave Ramsey's step program is get a $1000 emergency fund before you can begin to pay off debt. He says to make the money however you can. Have a garage sell, get a second job. So here are the things that we are trying to sell to get the money. Also, Tyler is going to get a second job for the Christmas season. This is a serious commitment, and we are dedicated. Heavenly Father has asked us to prepare and get financially stable, and we are going to do it. So the next post is all the things that we are selling. If any of you are interested, just email blhaas22@gmail.com. Thanks!


PS.... I cut up every credit card I have..... BIG DEAL. There will be no going back
