It's been awhile since I last posted. I've been bad. Forgive me! On top of not posting lately, because I haven't, it didn't keep me logged in like it normally does and I wasn't using the right email address to get logged in. It was a little frustrating. But we are all set now ( I think anyway!).
So I've been trying to gather information about previous jobs that I have worked so I can apply for some part time jobs. Nate has been getting really crappy hours at the Bass Pro Shop, and has continued to look for another full time job. He was told originally that after like 3 months he would probably be moved up to full time status, but he hasn't really even been getting 20 hrs a week the last few weeks. It really sucks. And he has been scheduled basically on the weekends, with the night shift. It really sucks =( So we are hoping something comes along with another job for him where we can get benefits and insurance and stuff.
I finally have gotten all the information that I need, I think to apply for some jobs. I applied for one job this morning. I have filled out paperwork for another, all I need is one more reference and it's ready to turn in. Christine, my sister-in-law, is going to bring me an application for where she works to fill out tonight. She is even going to call and see if they are hiring for me, she's wonderful! =) Then soon, I think I might apply at Target. I was looking online and found that I can do it online from home, which is much nicer than having to go into the store to apply. However, this morning it said that every job I was interested in wasn't hiring right now =( So I might wait a week or two. They will probably hire more people for the holiday seasons coming up.
Ok well this is shorter than I planned, but Aiden is crying and needing my attention. I am pretty sure that he has a tooth ready to pop through so he has been more crabby lately. =( Until next time . . .

Oh Man!
So, a lot has happened since I last blogged!!!
Basically, the biggest thing that has happened is we have 2 more people plus another dog here at my in-laws house. My brother and sister in-law moved back in simply because my sister in-law's mother kicked them out of the house. So they moved back here Saturday. Nate was the only one home Saturday night. They still have a lot of stuff at the other house. So they are like I was, in between houses right now. It sucks, and I feel for them. They have been looking at houses to buy for the last month. They have had 3 houses taken from under them which stinks, but they haven't given up looking. Now that they are living here with us, they are even more determined to find a house, and find one quick! They went and put an offer on a house today and Christine (my sister in-law) already got a call back saying that there are 2 other offers on the table. It's a foreclosure house. One offer is lower than theirs and the other offer is above the asking price. So now they are a little discouraged once again cause they really liked this house. So we'll see what happens.
The other big news is that I FINALLY have my new license, waiting on my new social security card, and I feel like a Yenser now!! The only thing I have to do now is get a hold of the bank and change my name on our account and get a hold of AllKids to change my name, address, and add Nate's name to it. To bad I've been trying to get a hold of them for the past month! Ridiculous!!!!!
So yea, lots has been happening in the growing Yenser household. Stay tuned for more updates.
Oh yea, me and Nate got our pictures today that Sarah printed for us!!! We love them! They are even more beautiful than on the computer!!!! =) We can't wait to get them into frames and hang them!! Thanks Sarah!!!!! =) You rock!

Family Time
This weekend was GREAT! It started with Friday. Me and Cathy, my mother-in-law, took Aiden to get pictures done again at Wal-Mart. Cathy took Aiden last month to get pictures done because she said he is just to cute not to have pictures done. So Cathy, Mark (father-in-law) and Nate took him to get pictures done when Nate took Aiden for the weekend. The pictures are SUPER cute. Well, after paying way to much money for pictures, Cathy realized that they charged her an extra $10 to belong in this picture club. Well her impression was that she can go in every month and get a free 8x10 picture. Sweet deal for only a one time fee of $10. So me and Cathy took him Friday to get "4 month" pictures done. Well while we were there, we found out that in this club, she could go EVERYDAY if she wanted to, to get a free 8x10. Now that's a real deal!!! So we said there is no reason why we can't take him every month to get at least an 8x10, even if we don't buy any other size. So, we are hoping to do that.
Saturday was a typical Saturday, just kind of hanging around all day. It was nice. Sunday me, Nate, and Aiden went to the zoo with Matt & Christine (brother and sister-in-law), and their friend Pat and his child Vincent. We had lots of fun. Aiden was much more attentive this time. We went last month to the zoo, and he seemed to like it for the most part. And lately when he sees animals on the tv, he gets really excited so we thought he would really enjoy the zoo this time around. He did, he really seemed to have a good time. My favorite part of the zoo was in the penguin area. I can't remember what the building is called, but inside they have that waterfall thing where like every 30 seconds a rush of water comes over the rocks, hits the top of this glass and slides down into the water below. It's not very big, but if you've never seen it before, it might scare you when it happens. Well, Aiden LOVES, I mean LOVES his bath time! To the point where the last few times he has pretty much soaked my arms because he is splashing his feet so much. So we thought he would enjoy seeing this waterfall thing. Boy were we right. Nate had the video camera ready and we got him on tape. At first it was like he was shocked that the water was coming, then he started to make these noises and would jump like you wouldn't believe! He was so excited about it. We taped him during 4 times of this. It's hilarious! One of these days, I'm going to get it on my computer and post it on facebook so people can see. =)
After the zoo, we drove to my parents house. Aiden had a dr. appointment on Monday so either way I was planning on going and spending the night at my parents Sunday night so I didn't have to worry about traffic on Monday driving to Algonquin for his dr. appointment. My mom couldn't get enough of him. I'm pretty sure dad had a great time with Aiden too. Snuggles (the dog) was SO excited that we were there. As we were leaving on Monday she was actually whinning because we were leaving. We Aiden had his dr. appointment. He now weighs 18.4 lbs!!!!! And he is 27 inches!!! He is such a big boy! =) Dr. said everything is looking good though, we should have nothing to worry about =)
So we had a very busy, but very fun filled weekend. Hope your weekend was just as great! =)
