We sure can LOVE each other when we try.

This has been the hardest month of our marriage. Money has been SO tight, ok non- exsitent. Which really makes things difficult. I have been trying really hard to make little sacrifices. I really hope my efforts are being noticed. Once Adam returned to the resturant after quiting his "dream job" (which turned out to be a nighmare). He was recommmended for the opening management position. Five people were interview the same day. Then the husband talks to his wife and they pray about it. Later that day Adam found out he got the job. It was really exciting!! I really hope he loves it. It will help us tons with baby and schooling. Anyways- You can't help but grown closer to one another when you don't have anything else. Adam loves me and I love him. That's the ONLY thing that matters, I guess.
Money is so yucky. However, this experience HAS made us stronger. I really got into a good habit of reading my scripture, which i needed badly. I've love reading them and i just got to 2nd Nephi, YIKES. Never give UP, right??!!
One a side note: I have complained about our neighbor's smoking for months. It seeps into our house. I can't even walk into the kitchen it gets so bad. The management told me they were getting an eviction notice last weekend and all week they have smoked us out. We can't take it anymore, it's not fair. I don't know else I can do. I don't mind my apartment, I know they are old and cheap but the smoke smell is a problem. I hope it gets solved fast.

Question: Is it neccessary to take a pre-labor class?? Can I learn all I need to know some other way, and is it ok to just swing it?? I need some advice and quick tips.

Okay, now that I have read your post I will comment for reals -- I would take the labor class if you can. Don't do the four classes on five night thing, just do the marathon Saturday class (we took it with Terica and Andy -- good memories). In addition to seeing the hospital, you will become familiar with the equipment, what is normal, the sequence of events, etc. It will really help you once you get in there and you are freaking out because an eight pound object is trying to make its way out of your body. I also have some great books I can recommend. Call me, or this will be a LOOOOONG post.

Everyone told me that if I need baby advice to talk to Paige, she has studied up on everything. This advice has been great for me, i've even called her in the middle of the night to ask her questions. I'm so glad to hear that you are doing so well. After our late night talk in december i was thinking a lot about you.
