I know I have been so blessed and lucky. Bank of America rocks and gives 8 weeks paternity leave. It has been such a blessing to have Jeff home with me. I'm pretty sure I would not of made it though these past 8 weeks without his help. I am so blessed to have such a wonderful husband. We have had so much fun together spending so much time cooped up in our little house. He has laughed with me and held me as I cried on those oh so many break down moments. I know he will miss us while he is at work, and we will miss him more than he knows. Thanks Jeff for all you do and for being my number one. I love you more than ever!
We also decided that I will not be going back to work. We prayed about it and we don't know exactly how we are going to get by but we are going by our faith and putting this all in the Lords hands and we know it will work, Liberty needs me at home. I just worry about Jeff between work and school he will be gone from 8am to 9pm. He is so wonderful and is determined to finish school and work the whole time to support our family. He is so great, and I am very lucky to be able to be home with Liberty all day.

Darling picture!
Hope everything works out for ya all. Kevin did similarly (worked and went through school and I stayed at home). It was hard, he was gone all the time with school in the daytime and working at the restaurant until late, late. But, it was worth it in the end.
I know it will all work out. Faith goes a long way. I love love love that picture of Liberty. I'm so glad you got a pic of the lip!
Wow, 8 weeks paternity leave! Bank of America does rock! That had to have been so nice for the three of you. :) Things will work out. I know you will, but just always remember to pay your tithing. In the begining I know that when we added the numbers together they just didn't seem to add up to the bills, but with the lords help everything always worked out. You guys will be great! By the way I love the pouty lip, she is so stinkin cute!
Oh I am so glad you decided to stay home with Liberty. Soak up those precisious moments because they wont last forever.
that is a GREAT picture - lol. You guys will get by. mmmmwah! (that was a kiss)
We're praying for you! It is hard, but you will be so glad Jeff gets his schooling done. We waited too long and it cost us in the end. We can't wait to see you guys! Love, Terri
The year Jennifer was born my dad made a bit over $4,000 that whole year and we're all still alive! haha... i know you guys can do it! Good luck and don't tell him I told you haha
I have to give Miss Liberty the best pouty look ever!! You guys are going to do great. I don't know how it works but it always does. Rob did the work and school and church calling thing for years. I only curled up in the fetal position and cried about once a day. J/K. Well half J/k. What a great family you are!!!
Hey Amy! I love your blog! (Im in your ward in case your wondering ;) ) Liberty is soo precious! Congrats!
I'm so glad that you decided to stay home, it'll mean so much to her when she is older.
I hear ya on the missing husbands. It is no fun at all when they are gone so much. Hang in there, I'm not going to lie, it is not going to be fun. You'll soon realize how much stuf you can get done in one day without him there though. I get my best work done when Alsy is gone.
Kudos to Jeff for working and going to school. Definately stick in there and get the job done, you'll be so happy when you can walk away with a degree...atleast that's what I hear. :)
Love you and miss you a ton!
You have made a wise decision young Grasshopper! :)
Yay for you! So cool Jeff got work off and he's the one that didn't have the baby! B OF A does rock!! Liberty is just a doll. I knew you two would make cute babies :) I think it's awesome you're giving up money to stay home with your little one. The Lord will bless you. Do what you can, and he'll provide the rest. I hope to be able to meet Liberty when I come home in December.
I came across this on someone elses blog don't know if it would help with Liberty: http://www.colicease.com/
