Trying to give up a few things....

So, I'm learning to let Josh handle more of the day to day things that I have normally taken care of. Primarily, because I just can't do it with 3 courses, the full time job, and having 3/4 of the normal energy that I have. I'm starting to break down.....and it's not a good time to be doing that. Before leaving for Amsterdam, Josh was put in charge of getting the Euro's. He paid $800 online for 500 Euro and had to pick it up Wednesday downtown (where he's working) before getting on the plane to St. Louis.

He calls at 4:45pm. First thing I ask him, "Did you get the Euros?". I hear, "Oh no. I forgot. Shoot......I gotta go." He somehow rushed there, got them, and still made his plane Wednesday night. Yes, he got them, but Josh, you needed be reminded! As our lives get crazier, the method of organization must get better. In retrospect, funny....but WOULD not have been funny if $800 was left behind in the US in an reasonably unusable format.

On a happier note - Josh and I received more baby presents in the mail! I love random baby gifts and have been amazed at how giving family and friends have been thus far! This is what we received, along with a book and an amazing offer for help on gift registry shopping, from Jessica Balin.
