It has been a lllllllloooooooonnnnnnnnngggggggggg time!!!

Net Worth

I forgot to mention that our net worth has been updated through December 31, 2006 at NetworthIQ.

2006 Review

This past year was a crazy one for us and my inability to post consistantly is a testament to that. I have spent some time the past three weeks to de-clutter my life and hopefully that will result in some consistent posting.

As for 2006, it ended with a bang. We wife gave birth to our third child on December 31st. He is a healthy kid and his older siblings enjoy him immensely. As for our finances, we managed to reach both of our short term goals which is fantastic. I have started to craft new goals for 2007 and will post those shortly. (I hope)

Am I back????

Well, it seems I dropped the ball again. After another long hiatus, I am back with a post. Hopefully, I can keep things going for a little bit this time. I have updated the status of my goals through September 30th and my networth is up to date as well at NetworthIQ.

Birthday Bash

My daughter turns three this weekend, so we have been making plans to celebrate. Her desire is to go fishing which has left me with some planning to do, since I am not an avid outdoorsman. I am still debating the best financial route (what can I say I am an accountant): buy a low-end rod that may not get used again for some time or rent a rod and run the risk that she enjoys it so much that we will end up buying a rod anyways. I know, I am making way too big a deal about this and should just go out, have fun and enjoy the time spent together. That is what is really important anyways.

Net Worth Update

Our latest net worth update can be found at NetworthIQ. There haven't been too many significant changes since I posted our April new worth. The credit card and cash balances jumped significantly due to our taking advantage of additional 0% balance transfer offers.

Work has finally returned to normal now that we have an entirely new Human Resources Department, so hopefully I will be able to find time to most a little more regularly again.

We will soon be outnumbered...

My wife and I found out last night that our family will be growing once again. Instead of being able to play man-to-man or parent-to-child in this case, we will now be forced to play zone. It is still very early but also very exciting. If this pregnancy goes like the first two, the arrival date should be right around Christmas. Just in time to reap the tax benefits of having a child.
