JACK!

A somewhat recent pic of our new baby:)

We're Back!

To say that this blog is long overdue is an understatement! It has officially been four months since our last blog, and so much has happened! First of all, that nanny job that I was so excited about four months ago has turned out to be a major disaster. Long story short, the family I worked for refused to pay taxes the correct way, and wanted to basically take their share of taxes they were supposed to pay out of my monthly pay. Not cool. Not to mention, this is one of those families who definitley has the money, but they are cheap shady people. And, their kids are devils. The only good thing about this whole awful situation is I have learned how hard it is to be a mother, and I have learned how NOT to raise children. So, here I am looking for a job again. I had an interview with a company that I really want to work for called ALE Solutions. They are a company who workes for insurance agencies to help find temporary housing for families who have had disasters happen to their homes. I applied for a position called Account Coordinator, and I will be finding out next week if I got it. The scary thing is that my last day with this family is Friday, so it definitely puts us in a tough position financially. So, everyone cross your fingers and say a prayer for that.

Onto other news, we have another member in our family! JACK! It is hard to believe he is almost four months old already! Steve and I love having a dog, but Jack is literally crazy. Although he is very smart (we taught him to sit, laydown and shake!), he is non-stop with energy, and he would probably play fetch 24 hours a day if he could. He is a great dog though, and has made us so happy.

Steve is excelling in the game of Travian, and although I feel it is a little obsessive, he is now ranked like 118 out of 1,000,000 or something ridiculous like that. And, I would never tell it to his face, but I'm kinda proud:) He's also teaching himself graphic animation which is like insanely hard. We are hoping one day it will make us lots of money.

Welp, I'm sure there have been a million other things that have happened, but hey, it's a start!
