Darcy is now 1 year old!

I can't believe we have a daughter that is now 1 year old. Darcy turned 1 on November 1st so we had a nice family dinner and party. She of course had no idea what the big fuss was all about, but she sure enjoyed all the attention that was being shown her way. She likes her new toys and her parents especially love the ones that make all the nice noises. It is amazing to look back at the past year and see how far we've come. From being all by ourselves, to having a tiny, helpless infant, to a 1 year old that can't hold still because she just loves to play! Well, I will have photos later from the party. I've been super busy with studying and taking exams that I haven't had time to work on the photos. I shot them in Raw, so I need to compress them to load them on the web.

One of 4 out of the way

Well, I at least I hope that one is out of the way. I don't find out if I passed that first of four parts of the CPA exam for about a month or so. Wow, I never knew that it was possible to make a 90 question multiple choice exam so difficult. Wow. And now I still have another part this Monday. I've been studying all day today (Saturday) to continue to get ready for this thing. I feel ok, but still feel like I could be more ready. There is no way to truly be completely ready for this exam, but you can get to the point that you feel comfortable with your level of study and knowledge. I'm beginning to feel that way about the multiple choice part of the exam, but the new simulations are going to be something all on their own. Those are going to be very tough. But, I've done harder things in my life, so I'm sure that I won't die sitting there in front of the computer answering questions. If Tara could push out Darcy, than I should be able to survive this as well!!! Just a quick plug for how tough women are! Well, now that my 5 minute break is up it's time to get back to studying. I will keep you posted on progress.
