Jack's photo shoot on Thursday went ok. First, we accidentally stole someone else's appointment. I thought I had made the appt for 10. Turns out it was 2. Oops. We showed up at 10, told them we had an appt, they took us into a room. Never asked our name. Halfway through our shoot the real 10 o'clock appt shows up. They were like 15 minutes late so serves em right....lol
The chick that was working with us did not impress me. She had a few little props that I guess were meant to make kids laugh and smile. Well they did no such thing for Jack yet she continued to use them. We had brought some of his toys from home that were successfully making him smile and laugh when Jared or I held/shook/squeaked them. Then she'd get annoyed that he was laughing/smiling at us and not at her!?! Even though I had tried handing our toys to her to use and she'd use them once and then hand them back and go back to her POS toys. Yea....that's logic. Those clearly aren't working....lets keep using them. She also had this piece of cardboard she was using to waft at him because the wind made him smile.......it also messed up his hair. ARGH! She saw me keep fixing it after each time she used it so you'd think she'd get them hint and stop using it. Nope. Used it a few more times. I was like great.....none of those shots are getting purchased....nice work lady. Then we got home and realized we accidentally stole a big blue rubber ducky from the shoot. Oooops. I really don't feel all that bad though. That lady sucked. She also kept trying to shove the spendy packages down out throat after we made it clear we weren't wanting to purchase a ton of pictures. Oy.
Saturday was a busy day. I had my new employee orientation/training from 9-12. 4 different people's cell phones went off during this training. 2 people's cell phones went off multiple times and they answered them!!! only to say "I can't talk right now". Do people really need to be told to turn their phones off at those types of things?!?! Morons.
Then after that I went home and we got ready to go to a welcome home party for Jared's cousin who just got back from Iraq. She said temperatures over there on days like we've had lately would be around 130-140!!! Yikes!
After that we went to Nan & Pop's for a bbq because my uncle Gerry and my cousins Lucia, Liisa, and Liv were in town.
After that we went home and eventually Rob and Brooke came over and then my mom and then Barb once she got off work. They stayed up playing poker. I went to bed at like 11. It had been a long day. Sunday morning we were all just hanging out and Barb kept putting Jack behind his walker or his dump truck and then he would just take off across the living room!! He's getting so good. He'll be walking very soon. I took a few videos but they're crap so we'll have to get some new ones.
I'm so sick of Jameka on Big Brother. I can't believe the things she says/wears and then has the audacity to turn around and chastise other people in the house for not being "christians". Gimme a break lady. It sucks that Jessica won HOH....I DO NOT LIKE the LNC. We're seriously starting to root for Jen!! How crazy is that? Jen and Daniele annd Evel Dick. I don't really like Evel Dick but I gotta say....I like how easily he gets under people's skin....especially Jameka's. Haha!! He over does it and it's not necessary but it's definitly effective. I can't wait to see the LNC turn on Eric when they realize what Daniele and Dick have been trying to tell them all all week. MwaaHaaHaaaa!
Well, time to get ready. Jack and I are going to Teddy Bear Park with Barb and Brooke today. Here's a cute pic of my 2 favorite guys :o)
