This past week

So I'm a bit of a slacker and its taken me a week to sit back down and do this. I blame Zack though! He's been home this whole week and on the computer most of the time so that makes it difficult for me to inform the world. He's been working really hard though. Last Monday we spent most of the day looking for jobs. Tuesday he was on the computer most the day finishing his Senior project. Wednesday he was literally on the computer ALL day and, when he turned in his project wednesday night (17 pages long...), it still wasn't done. Luckily his teacher said that a lot of students haven't been able to complete it on time because of student teaching so he extended the dead line until the 20th (this wednesday)! We all went fishing on thrusday with Justin and Caitlin. It was an uneventful trip. Enjoyed the company but caught no fish...and it was pretty windy so Kade was upset about that. There was a little park with toys close by and Shaylie took Zack to play on them. She really enjoys him. However, earlier in the week her and Zack went the rounds. She very loudly and rudely yells 'no' now and Zack was under just enough stress that her talking back to him made him upset, which fired her up more and so on and so forth! Its funny though because I've noticed that whenever one parent loses it the other one somehow has amazing patience all of a sudden! I had to step in and send them both to their rooms, but once they both cooled down it was like it had never happened! Kade of course had no idea there was ever any problem! We think he may be starting to teeth already. He's getting fussy randomly, drools a lot, and sucks on his fist. When he's not fussy, he's a joy to be around! He's all about smiling and 'talking.' He's getting better and better at holding up his little head. It pretty obvious though when he's tired...his head droops! Shay is still so good with him! She pats his head so nice and says "Hi, buddy!" Which I've noticed I say too. Speaking of Shay copying people, her new phrase is ,"oh heck!" Which i think is suppose to be "oh my heck" I didnt think we said it very often but...obviously we do! She accidently went to the bathroom while in the bath tub (my fault-she told me she had to go I just I didn't get to her fast enough), and from the other room I heard, "Oh heck mommy! Oh heck! Mommy, shaylie opps. Heck mommy!" I thought it was funny until I walked in and saw what she was 'oh hecking' about. Motherhood is disgusting sometimes! We had justin and Cailtin over again on Friday night, we went out to dinner then when we were about to go in different directions...our car wouldn't start. Justin and Zack jumped the car and we decided to worry about it the next day. They came to our house and watched a movie later that night. Saturday...Caitlin and I went shopping for Audree's bridal shower. It was a lot of embarrassing fun! We also looked for dress's for the wedding but came up with nothing there. During this adventure, Shay stayed with her daddy and uncle justin and We took Kade with us (since I had to feed him). I had to change him and decided to do in Caitlin's nice brand new kia sorento...what was I thinking! of course, with my luck, he messed on her brand new seats! Went through his clothes through the blanket (which was folded twice) and on to her seat. I'm still kicking my self! She was a great sport about it though and told me not to worry about it! Zack tried real hard to get it out when we got home. We're pretty sure it worked, but only time will tell. I'm still embarrassed! After that we went and met Kayla and her little family at Cracker barrel. It was a short visit but nice to see them. Then we went back home (justin and Caitlin came back over) and we watched the new Harry potter movie! Zack got it for me as a surprise! He's so good like that! We also found out that our battery in the toyota was dead so we got new one (which was needed) then it worked for a little bit then stopped again. It turned out it was a connection something or other...$5...yay!

On the job front, we have applied for 5 new jobs. One in Wyoming, two in Utah, and two in Arizona. We're keeping our fingers crossed!
