So many things are going on with the Jones family! The last week or so has been filled with birthday celebrations, moving preparation, free refrigerator hunting, car troubles and the semester ending stress.
I just turned in all my assignments for my online class. YAY! I feel so relieved. I just need to take the final online by Friday then I'm
done. I have really been neglecting blogging lately because of my homework, every time I thought about blogging I would remind myself... if you have time to blog, you should be doing your homework.
Hurlee had his 6 m
onth check up today
with Dr. Rostermundt. Like we thought, all his well with our growing
boy. He is 19.5 lb. and 28 inches
long. We finally started solid foods which has been fun. I really like spoon feeding him. So far we have tried bananas, apples, pears (his favorite), carrots, gr
een beans, prunes and an apple-blueberry blend (which he also loved). In hindsight we really should of started with vegetables because they don't taste as good as fruit
, because after nights of pears he kinda laughed in my face when I tried green beans (they smelled so gross, I definitely wouldn't of wanted to eat them).
Well next week is moving week. Shawn and I are moving yet AGAIN. I can already
tell that moving with a baby is going to be very difficult. I am not super excited about moving, but our new apartment is a lot cheaper which will be nice. At least it's a good excuse
to redecorate.
PROS: Garage, Washer Dryer Hookups, 1.5 bathrooms (that's .5 of a bathroom we don't have now), only share one wall (and it is a staircase and upstairs bathroom), cute little patio, close to work and the most important one... cheaper.
CONS: really really old, no dish washer, ugly cabinets, doesn't come with a refrigerator and our bedroom is smaller.
I had the best birthday this year. I really unintentionally milked it. On my actual birthday Hurlee was freaking out all evening SOOOO didn't really do anything. On Thursday I went to Applebee's with my family and on Friday my husband threw me the best surprise party. I had such a great time! The best part was, I was honestly surprised. I had no idea what was going on and was very confused when I walked in. I feel older now that I'm 21. I know that b
eing married for two years with a son should make me feel grown up, but no
w that I'm 21 I feel like a grown up lol. I have also come to the conclusion that I do not like the taste of alcohol. The only drinks I like that I tried heavily mask the alcohol taste, so I don't get what's really the point. Call me unclassy, but I'm happy with my delicious Coca Cola. and speaking of my love of Coca Cola, my husband suprised me once again with a mexican coke from home depot today. I can only say I'm spoiled.
My beloved Chevy Tracker is falling apart. We went to get it smogged the other day and they said it would need almost $500 worth of work to pass smog, but there was bunch of other stuff it needed done too. LAAMMMMME. Shawn bought the parts and got the shop manual from the library so he is going to do the work himself and it should cost a little over $100. SHEESH. May has been a really expensive month!
Man sorry people (all 3 of you who read this) for how long this post is. I'll try to cut it short next time.
"[1/3]of you who read this" likes your blog ^^ (also, the mini-van video is pretty awesome)
ReplyDelete[2/3] here.... I have a direct link on my blog home page so whenever u update it tells me & I make sure to check it out. I had no idea u were moving...when did this start to happen? Where is the "new" place? Cheaper is great.... :)
ReplyDeleteWe have had our eyes peeled for a cheaper apartment since January but weren't really in a rush. We can afford and like where we live now, but want more wiggle room. I am not a homebody, I like to go out and do fun things without draining the savings account. So we've been looking for a while but hadn't found anywhere that was in a nice area and has two bedrooms, while still being a big enough rent decrease to make us want to do the hassle of moving. It's right around the corner from my work. You'll have to come over IT'S VERY OLD don't get your hopes up lol. I'm not sure if it is an apartment, small condo or little townhouse???? the ad said apartment, shawn says small condo and my dad says townhouse. but it has a little upstairs and downstairs. i like the teeny tiny patio, it's my favorite part!! it will match our teeny tiny oak pit
ReplyDeleteand I pretty much want to grow up and become the mini van couple. pop out another kid (ya know cause they just pop out with no work at all!), start rapping about my jello molds. it would be wonderful.
ReplyDelete3/3 :) love you doll.
