Daily life

Well some big news. M was fired last Monday. Needless to say the stress level in the house has shot up. But he is diligently working on getting a new job. The whole deal was shady but for personal reasons I'm not going to blab them all over the internet.

We are taking things as they come and doing things to keep us fed, bills payed and rent updated.

In other news V has said his first sentance: I need nack. Or I need a snack.
He also learned a new word. Helicopter. But he says it Hell-a-pop-per. He truely is what keeps us from going to crazy with no job.

V Turns 2

V didn't have a birthday he had a birthweek. First came the card from Gramma Whitaker, a dollar from Gramma Harper and then a box from Bampa and mamaw Harper. I was so excited I could hardly wait till the next day for him to open it. So of course first thing in the morning I got the box out and cut the tape. He got Carhart coats, and osh-cosh overalls, rain boots, animals, and pjs. And then came the tractor and all future presents became unnecissary. We tried to put him down for a nap and he wanted his tractor. So there was no nap.



Then on Friday when M got paid he received his tricycle. And Oh boy was that fun. Almost didn't go to bed.



Saturday V had a birthday party in the park. Kids in nursery with came and they played on the toys. We had to move locations because where we were was reserved. But we had delicious sandwiches, potato salad, and watermelon.



I made a strawberry cake. And V saw it in the fridge, well he took a handful out of it. I couldn't fix it. I had used all the frosting. But it was well recieved by the kids. He also received presents from those invited.



A "mycle" motorcyle. Love that he chose that word to say.

Two CARS cars

An ambulance that makes noise and lights up

a bath time boat with animals that squirt water

A soccer ball

Paint brush, paints, and paper that takes markers as well.



But nothing was better than the motorcyle. It out ranked the tractor from grandma.



In the mail was a box from Aunt Jodie. There was Church pants, sox and shoes. And with the shirts M and I got for him he looks quite adorable at church now.



Then on this past Thursday came
