Beavers

When you manufacture a product, the initial start up fee can be hefty, but as you produce more, the cost/item goes down. Well I'm here to tell you that is not the case with kids.

Daniel had a decent initial cost. We had to get the bed, car seat, clothes, etc. James was by far the cheapest. We already had everything. I think I bought him one new little outfit to come home from the hospital in, but that was it.

Well with Anna, we had a new gender and all the fun accessories that come with a girl, but we also had to upgrade our family transportation.

Well, this one is costing an upgrade to our house. We are adding a room in the basement. We have been busy beavers hauling wood back and forth from Lowe's and digging a huge hole. So if you don't hear from us for a while, it is because we are working on the "dam" house.

But they are worth every penny, every sleepless night, every mess, every sacrifice.
