I want to congratulate Toni from The Happy Housewife, who gave birth to her 7th child last week.  That is definitely something worth talking about around the watercooler!  Mom and daughter are happy, healthy, and back at home now.  Stop by Toni’s site and check out her birth story and pictures of newborn Cora.

• How To Ween Yourself Off Coffee by Amber Zuckswert at Epic Self.  “…most of us are addicted to coffee. Like any other addiction, we NEED that morning cup to make it through the day. Whether it’s the energy jolt you crave or merely the ritual of sipping something warm while socializing, if that cup is missed you might as well climb back in bed because in your mind the day is shot. A substance should not control your life. Period! Your mind and body are all you need.”  Well said, and I could stand to work on my coffee problem as well! [Love Your Life]
• How We Prepared Ourselves for a 50% Pay Cut.  Steve from My Wife Quit Her Job wrote this guest post on Money Ning.  He said, “I discovered that our household income was going to undergo a 50% pay cut as soon as my wife became pregnant with our child.  Back when my wife and I got married, we both agreed that it was of the utmost importance for at least one parent to stay at home to raise our child. And we decided early on that no matter what the cost, we would find some way to make this happen.” [Personal Finance]
