So, yesterday we had a parenting first... cleaning up lots of puke! We were lucky for 2 reasons...
#1 Asher only gagged after eating most of his banana so it wasn't an all day thing.
#2 Asher was sitting in his high chair... the fountain from his mouth mostly landed right in the tray :) Nice visual huh?
Anyway. I got a car finally! I'm able to pay for it by the work I'm doing for Jeanne again... I went to college with the gal who sold it to us and we now go to the same church so she's letting me make a couple separate payments on it. The bad news is that it stalled once and I had to get a jump to get it going again and yesterday it died again but only to be towed to the Ford dealership here in McMinnville... where incidentally, our other car was finished being serviced (luckily that was free!). Anyway, so we'll see what's wrong with it. While we were driving earlier in the day one of the rear windows fell partway down the door and we couldn't get it to roll back up... but, good thing that happened b/c if it had rolled up we probably would have just found a ride home and left the car in the parking lot for a few days... which may have gone on past a week since Mark is going out of town today! Talk about a run-on sentence!! We should find out tomorrow what the cost of repairs will be... someone from Les Schwab had a theory which is only one filter or one part that may need replaced... we'll be praying about it for sure. And we'll probably be able to knock a little off the price of the car since we only got it last Saturday and already it was not even a running car! The car was a great deal though... valued at least over $3500 through kbb.com and we got it for $2000. It's a 2000 Ford Focus and it's perfect for me to be driving around - once it's actually up and running again :-)
I've been booking more photo shoots and I'm actually all caught up on the editing which is a great feat for me! I have another shoot this weekend... Austie's sister from North Bend is coming up and we're going to go crazy doing lots of stuff in the studio. Both Jeanne and I will get some great stuff for stock and Austie will also get some awesome shots for her makeup portfolio. Here's a photo from Matt's senior photo shoot...
and another from the shoot I did 2 weekends ago.
Well, thank goodness I'll be busy this week b/c Mark will be gone with his boss on business for almost a week... hopefully Asher is good for me! Pray for strength, patience and endurance!!!!!
