I am going to lose my internet some time next week! It's just that things have gotten pretty tight with us financially because I'm not working. It came down to the decision between going back to work now or waiting until Sakura is eating solid foods and has a little bit more of a scheduled feeding time to work around.

We decided to wait because, in the long run, it's better for her. But now I won't be able to have internet (or cable or trips out for food or fun) until about August or September, because Creepy really only makes enough for the necessary bills right now and very little more.

So, I will miss you all! When I get back on I'll be sure to let you know how things are. As it is, Sakura is 9 weeks old now. And I'm sure that some of you are curious as to what she looks like, so here's some pictures:

The picture is kinda blurry, but it's her first smile on camera!

Anyhoo, thanks for putting up with me. I'll try to post when I make my occasional visits to the library or my friends' houses.

Thanks for letting us know what's going on! I know how it is with the financial struggles. That's good that you're going to be able to take care of Sakura a while longer. It's a hard decision to make!
Just after we had our first daughter we talked about me going back to work, but it just wasn't worth it with what I could make and the cost of day care and what not, and like you said in the long run it's better for the baby to be nursed as long as you can.
I'm glad that I've been able to be home with my chldren though things have been a struggle.
