An Update

Ok, I'm doing really bad at blogging lately and I apologize. Things have been crazy lately. We are on the hunt for a new car. The Dodge Durango we have eats gas and since Vince drives to Mossville every day for work, we figured we should look for something with better gas milage. This car, the Pontiac G6 has really caught Vince's eye and I like it too, but right now I'm not sure we can afford it at $14,990. Doing some research we found the same car with more miles on it for $3000 less. So we'll see how things pan out.

Logan is going through a growth spurt again. He's been able to fit into his 12 month clothes and even some of his 6-9 month clothes for awhile still and I was hoping he could wear these throughout the summer. Boy, was I wrong! He can't even fit into his 12 months anymore. Thankfully it is spring which means garage sale time. Yesterday Tremont had their townwide garage sales and I found some great clothes for good prices. A few houses were selling their baby clothes for a quarter each, you can't beat that!

Work has been a little hectic too since we are so short staffed, but have just now starting hiring more people because we were on a hiring freeze. And some good news is that I might be switching shifts at work. I currently work from 11-7 and feel like I'm missing out on alot with Logan. My boss informed me that one of the girls in the morning will be leaving and wanted to know if I wanted her spot. Of course!! I'll now work from 6am-1:30pm which leaves my whole afternoon with Logan free. I'm so excited!! Vince is also working his way up at his job. The supervisors really seem to like him and in just a month he's moved to a building that pays better and then became a forktruck driver. So he's already gotten a couple raises. We're going to enjoy it while we can before child support and the unemployment he has to pay back starts coming out of his check because then he won't be making anything.

I've also added a food blog search link to the gadgets in my blog. This thing is awesome!! Just search for a recipe and any food blog that has this recipe will pop up. I'm really liking it :) So give it a try.

To end this blog, I decided to try and upload a video. My first time trying this, hope it works and it's taking forever to upload. Anyway, this is Logan climbing up our stairs. He's getting pretty good at it, but still can't get back down yet.

  1. cute, but he made me a little nervous when he stopped. I was afraid you'd have to put your camera down before he tumbled backward down the stairs

  2. He sure is getting big! And he's WALKING? When did that happen? Holy crap!

    That's great about his job. Forktruck driver is a good paying position, Dave went in as a forktruck driver and then worked his way up to supervisor. They are quick to promote if they think you know what you're doing. If Mossville CAT is anything like EP..not many people do know what they're doing lol.

    You might want to try craigslist and such for cars. We got my awesome cavalier for $600 so I know there are cheaper cars out there. That car ran like a champ too! Even AFTER I rolled it ;).
