Having a baby is PRICELESS...


So today Austin, David, and I went to get our pictures done so that we can send out Christmas cards.  We also wanted to get pictures of just Austin for his 6 month portraits to have.  I had a coupon for a bunch of pictures for ten bucks but of course when you get there and see all the cute pictures you want them all and then you are getting more than the coupon covers.  So the lesson that we learned today is go into a picture place with a budget and stick to it...haha.  We love all the pictures that we bought but now we have millions so guess what everyone's Christmas present will be....haha.  It is amazing how much you spend without even thinking about it because you know it will make Austin happy.  Granted a million pictures will not make Austin happy but it makes mommy and daddy happy because we will have pictures to remember him at this age.  Every time I am out somewhere I always end up picking up a little something for Austin.  It may be another package of paci's, a book, a new toy, or any old thing but it's what I do.  Before Austin was born it would be a little something for dad...a football magazine, a favorite snack, or a card that just says I love you.  I still sometimes get little somethings for Dad but always get little somethings for Austin.  Maybe it is because Austin gives great grins and hugs...haha.  It will be nice when baby number two comes because we will have already bought everything and won't be spending money as much as we do now on our little man.
