This has been quite a busy week for us and it doesn't look like it is slowing down any time soon! It started last Sun when we finally found a 4-door car we could trade our 2-door in for that wasn't too expensive, yet still nice, good gas mileage and not many miles on it already. We got a 2005 Volkswagen Passat and we love it considering getting the carseat in and out of a tiny 2-door was not fun at all! 1/3 of the miles our 2006 Honda Civic had on it and this one has a sun roof too, an added bonus. (see pictures below)
After leaving with our "new" car we went by Best Buy to look at laptops for me, as many hours as I put on mine and have put on it for the past 2.5 years, it is time to upgrade, plus Jason can now use mine for his homework and such and we don't have to wait for eachother to take turns. I planned on getting a tiny 10" netbook until I found out they are really only good for people who aren't 1) multi-tasking on it and 2) don't care about processing speed (apparently they are extremely slow) and being that I am going to work for the IHS afterwards and all the documentation is done on computers, I can use it then too...SOOO I got the new HP TouchSmart and it is awesome...12", lightweight, touch screen, fingerprint scanner, flip top to write on with the stylus and then capable of turning your handwriting into type, I am still learning all the ins and outs of it but so far am loving it.
Jason is dj-ing tonight for the 3rd night in a row and last night he dj-ed at North Scottsdale United Methodist Church for a Country Chili Cookoff night complete with great food and line dancing taught by 2 local professionals that were very nice. We learned some line dances then they taught Jason and I how 2-step with different spins, now we just need somewhere to go to show off what we learned. Of course Jalen came too and was such a good little boy! He danced, met a lot of new people and was passed out for the ride home.
This is my last week at my current clinical rotation and in 1 week we leave for Dallas, TX to stay with Hilary and her family for the weekend. On Mon, May 4th, we will be driving to Ada, OK for a job interview and a day of touring the town, hospital, PT clinic, neighborhoods, schools, etc and depending on how it goes it could be the site of our future home come this Sept or Oct...we'll keep you all updated when we get home.
Here are some recent pics...

Daddy feeding Jalen his lunch today-we try to do 1 bottle in the day followed by a nap, but today he wasn't having it...no naps = a very fussy little boy!
watching Sat morning cartoons in mommy and daddy's bed...Notice his left hand!!! Kind of goes with his facial expression, like I am bothering him...hmmm
