Lindsey's Growing too!

So here is Lindsey's slideshow. She really is growing up too fast, but that's just Life I guess. I don't know where her baby pictures are, I think I just have hard copies of them, I mean back in 2000, not everyone had a digital camera, right? Enjoy!

The many faces of Westley

As I tried to squeeze Westley into a onsie that was clearly too small for him, I got hit by the notation that he is growing up so fast. Lindsey is the same, and I will post a slideshow for her, but I completed Westley's first, since there aren't as Many pictures of him, only being 20 months instead of 7 years.
So I hope you enjoy the many faces of Westley. He's changed a lot, but he is still my little boy.

Time for an Update

Ok, I haven't been the best Poster lately, but I decided I needed to post today, and let everyone know how things are going (since nobody ever calls me *sniff*)

Jason's new job has been great for us. We thought the cummute would be really hard, but it's been alright so far, and he just loves the work he does there. It's barely been two weeks, and he's all set up, with Swag (he got a hat and fleece jacket with the company name on it) his own Laptop (much smaller then our family laptop, which has a huge widescreen) Business cards, (I keep a bunch in my purse and drop them off at resterants that offer a drawing for free lunch) And a new Cell Phone (well, not yet, but it's coming. He's waitting for some guy to come back from vacation).

He's extra excited because he's heard they might need to send him overseas to some of there other offices. He's getting ready to go down and get his passport. I don't think there can be a better fitting job for him. He's so happy, and that makes me happy.

Things at home are fine. I'm still having the issue with Westley not likeing Pants. (If you know where to buy kids suspenders PLEASE let me know!) But he's fine. He loves Diego (on Nick Jr.) so I got him a sheet set with Diego on it. He smiled so big, and it seems he's been sneaking into our bed a lot less often. I also found, while visiting a friend, that he loves Mega Blocks. My friend and I watched a 2 hour movie without a peep from him cause he was playing with those blocks. First thing I'm going to buy with Jason's first paycheck is those blocks. Westley's been getting more talkitive, which I think is impart with all his watching of Diego on tv. He says "Go Go" very well now.



Lindsey is doing Great! She very excited about her oppertunity to do Acting Classes. She also sold 52 boxes of girl scout cookies, so she is very proud of herself. She's doing well in school, and aside from always having too much energy at the end of the day, has been "in" bed on time lately.
One Monday, I went to the store, and Lindsey was standing on the edge of the cart. I stopped the cart and told her she couldn't do that, and I totally flashed back to when my mom would tell me and my brothers not to hang onto the cart. One of those times when your a kids and go "when I grow up and have kids I'll let them hang on the cart". Well, I'm grown up now, and I don't let my daughter hang on the cart, Why? She could fall and hurt herself, and it makes the cart really hard to push. I sure these are the same excuses my mom gave me when I was little. What goes around realy does come around.

On a final note. Today would have been Gram and Gramp's 60th Wedding anniversary. So if you are related to Gramp and are reading this post, you should give him a call.

Well that's it for now. If you want more news, you can always call ;-)

Update

So I have a lot of News that I need to post. I guess I'll start with the REALLY big news. Jason got a job offer!!! It's for a unix system engineering position (whatever that is) at Palantir Technologies He'd be making VERY good money, with benifits, and other perks. He really excited about it. The Job offer came in on Friday, and he's going to go ahead and accept it tomorrow. It feels like a heavy weight has been lifted from us, and I just hope that he won't have to look for another job for a VERY long time.

The second news has a story with it, so let me start with Saturday afternoon. Jason, Lindsey, Westley and I were at the Mall, to buy Lindsey new shoes, and just look around at the new shops (we hardly ever go to the mall except for Santa, and we kinda skipped him this year). We had stopped outside the Disney store to look at the displays, when a woman approached us and said, "Your daughter is beautiful. Have you ever thought of putting her on TV?" Jason and I were dumbfounded. Well, she went on to explain that she was a scout for a Talent Scouting Agency. She invited Lindsey to go to an audition being held close by the next day. Lindsey didn't really know how to feel about it, so we were unsure if we were going to go. However, the next morning while we were at the Farmer's Market, another "scout" spotted Lindsey, and told her she'd do great if she went to the auditions. Well, that convinced her and us. We stopped by Ross, and got her a new outfit (totally cute for only 8 bucks!). We went to the Audition, and she did great (well, better then some of those other kids anyways). So we talked to an "agent" and he said we could get a call back sometime this week. Lindsey is so excited.
Did you know yesterday was super bowl Sunday? Well, we went and watched the game at my Mother-in-laws house, who has a huge widescreen hi-def tv. Tons of chips, dips, nachos, tortilla soup, Cake, Cheese Cake, Ice cream, and soda. Tom Petty did an awesome show at halftime, and the game was pretty interesting in the second half. Afterwords we played Wii for a little bit, before heading home. I think nextyear, we'll plan a healthier superbowl party. More salad and less cheese. Anyways that's all the news from here. I glad I got you all caught up, and maybe later this week I will have time to post my 7 things, I'm supposed to do since Suzanne tagged me.
