I know it has been forever since I posted. It has been a week, oh my. Last Saturday my ac wasn't cooling in the car so we took it in and what do you know there's a leak in the condensor. They said the extended warranty should cover it because it was a "malfunctioned piece of equipment". Well I got a phone call Monday morning letting me know that the leak is not on a seam so a small pebble must have popped up and hit it while I was driving sometime and so the extended warranty is not going to cover it. They told me the price was going to be 835.00 with parts and labor HELLO that is almost a thousand dollars. So I went and picked up the car and took it to Shell Oil & Lube and they are fixing it right now for only 500.00 so I got a little bit of a break. This car is just a nightmare in itself. Ever since I bought it I have been doing nothing but replacing things. It's a toyota solara and everyone keeps telling me "this is so unusual it's not like toyotas to have all these problems". Well I guess I bought the one that is a lemon. So now we are trying to figure out if it would just be better and easier for us to trade it in and get something more practical and economical for our family. I don't need a two door luxury car with all the bells and whistles anymore I just need something with space and that doesn't stain easily, ha!!! The week after I drove off the lot in my solara I found out I was pregnant, nice, now I have a two door car that I just traded my FOUR door car in for. Dalton and I drove the truck for the first year of his life because it has four doors and was easier to get the car seat in and out of but now we are taking the car again because I feel like I'm driving a boat when I drive that truck. I love my car and it was my dream car however not with a lab that is getting bigger by the day and a growing family. So we will see what happens at least the car is finally being worked on this morning after taking three days for the part to come in and being without a car since last Saturday.
On top of that, Monday morning we heard that Baker Hughes is buying out our company. WONDEFUL, just what I need right now. Some think it's good and some think it's bad, but overall every employee at BJ and Baker right now is pretty scared as to the impact it will have on employment opportunities for us. I'm sure all of you know by now becuase it's all over the internet, newspaper, and tv. Now we're all just sitting tight until we can find out some more information on the outcome of all of this. I hate situations where I don't know what's going on whether it's good or bad news I would rather know upfront than sit in limbo trying to figure it out and guess what will happen.
Aggie is doing much better ever since we bought that apple bitter spray. I would definitley suggest that with puppies to help them learn not to chew. We are probably still going to replace the carpet at our earliest convienance because there are two areas that he had gotten a hold of them and on Tuesday night he ran all over the living room WHITE carpet with little black and brown paws from running through the dirt and mulch. So now we have little spots all over the place and hopefully tomorrow when we rent a steam cleaner it will take most of them out for the time being.
Dalton is awesome!!!! He is learning how to say I love you!!!! When we say I love you he says "IIIIIIII lldgeeeww" It's so cute because the I is clear as day and he says it so long and drags the word out and then the rest is really quick:) It still makes my heart melt when I hear him say it because he's telling us he loves us. Last night we watched Mama Mia because I had to write a couple of paragraphs on it for my theatre class and since I've already seen the movie more times than I can count we were having dance practice in our living room:) I would hold Aggie and dance with him and Chantz would hold Dalton and dance with him and then we would switch and we would dance really close together so Dalton would hold onto Aggie and he was just laughing and laughing and laughing. It's moments like those that just make you realize there is nothing else that matters in the world except for those that you love the most and spending time with them is the only thing you need to be happy.

your blog site is soooooo cute!
and you have the most ADORABLE little family! :)
great pictures!
Oh my gosh! I will definitely be praying for you and your job circumstances. I know how scary it is wondering if you will still have a job the next day. COP just went through job cuts this past March and who knows if they will do it again because the economy still isn't looking so hot. I'm with ya!
