Much to many people's happiness, Justin and I have been thinking more about when we want to have a second child. During these conversations I often find myself puzzling over just how people lived with so many children in such small houses in years gone by. As most of you know we currently live in a three bedroom one bathroom house that is cozy but really not that small. I just wonder how people were ever comfortable in the same living conditions with more children. We are cramped! We think we have decided to purchase a storage building in order to move many of Justin's hunting items such as the four-wheeler and the lawn care equipment out to the building to free up more practical storage room for Katelyn's outgrown clothes and toys. Heaven forbid we get rid of them and then need them sometime in the future. I just hate the fact that we only have one bathroom but I have come to the conclusion that if other families have done with less in the past surely we can live with one bathroom!
It all comes down to something that I heard on Opera's Spending diet show I guess. You just have to be happy with what you have instead of buying things you think will make you happy. Justin and I have decided to be happy with what we have regardless of whether we have another baby or not. We just have to figure out what to do with all the extra junk that is driving us crazy instead of making us happy. Please let me know if you have any good organizational ideas!
