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 ;-)

Sheesh, I don't know what I'd do if I didn't let my kids stand on the edge of the cart. I'm so bad! But if I made them walk I'm sure they'd be up and down every isle creating havoc and giving me a ton of stress I don't need. If they were calm like Lindsey I don't know that I'd let them ride. However, with Jared gone it definitely gets us through a trip to the store (on those rare occasions when I need to go when they're not in school).

Anyway, I'm glad Jason's job is so great. What a blessing! Sounds like you all are doing well.
