A decision has finally been made


So, several months ago, I wrote a post all about how the screen on my phone broke, but I didn't want to order a new one because I would be out of contract with ATT this February. Well, after months and months with a blank screen phone and weighing the options, I finally decided to resign with ATT. And this is the pink phone I'll be receiving in the mail within the next few days. I decided that I really like having rollover minutes, so I didn't consider any other providers.

Anyway, Leyla's finally feeling better today. Her cough pretty much disappeared and she's finally eating like her normal self. It's going to take my milk supply a day or two to catch up I imagine though. She was eating so little the past week that my body responded by making a lot less milk. Hopefully it'll rebound ok. I'd hate to have to switch to formula. I've actually been having a very positive nursing experience with Leyla, which is not what I was expecting at all. I honestly hated nursing Chloe.

I called a few plumbers today and found out that a really big chunk of the $3,000 and up estimates is due to digging. Apparantly they have to dig up the line with shovels as opposed to heavy machinery. And since the line is so freaking long, paying two plumbers $75 an hour each to dig it up is going to be costly. So, if Miguel and I are able to get a little help and dig it up ourselves, we can save a lot of money. I hope that works out. I really don't want to spend half of our tax refund on plumbing.

I'll try to get some pictures of the little ones this weekend.

Looks like a perfect lil Kelsey phone. Hope it works as you'd like it to do.
I'm SO relieved to hear Leyla is doing better. It's such a worry when they are so little and feel poorly and then won't eat. It's not like they can tell you "Hey mom! My throat is killing me!"
Hope something works out for the manual labor portion of the plumbing. I'm sure that IS most of the cost as your backyard is PRETTY long...
