I Have a Blog Responsibility!!

I continuously forget the fact that I have a blog. A blog that I promised would be updated at least every once in a while. We have done a lot lately like 6 months pictures, which meant family pictures this time as well, we interviewed a babysitter :(, signed up for the next semester of school and we know attend more soccer games then David Beckum!



So lets see: 6 Months pictures, they are awesome! I just got them 2 days ago and they are beautiful, I cant stop looking at them. Soon everyone will get copies of them I just haven't got to that yet. If you would like to see these pictures and haven't yet just go to https://www.smilesbywire.com/home.asp?AC=LTPP0146104579JCP

Put in my name: Danielle Gridley and you can look at all the pictures as well as download them or order them.



We interviewed a babysitter!!! Man oh man what a nightmare. So I'm looking for someone to start watching Tyler starting in January so my thought was I would find someone and get to know them before the fact, and let Tyler get to know them. So I answered a ladies ad on craigslist who said she has worked in the school district for 7 years and was a foster parent for a year. OK for future reference you are not a foster parent for babysitting your dead beat sisters kid a lot for a year! Anyway we walk into this ladies house which first of all is a small one bedroom apartment and the first thing I see is ooh the cat! Yeah I don't think so, the cat is also only an indoor cat which means (litter box) and in the corner of this ladies living room is a huge blow up corona bottle!! C'mon are you really thinking you are going to get someone to let you watch there kids here!!! You are crazy! Sitting above the air conditioner in her living room is a patch that says "To much sex is still not enough" OK, that did it for me! We were nice and continued the interview but on our way to our car Joaquin looked at me like I was on crack "He is not going there" Like I was even still considering that! It was a bad experience to say the least!



Lets see.....And school I'm signed up for school next year, however this semester I'm taking a real estate class and planning on getting my real estate license after that. I need to try different things and I think that would be something that I would enjoy!



And when it comes to soccer: Joaquin is now a part of three soccer teams, which means three soccer games a week. Tyler and I don't have to go to all of these, however my son loves to go to these games. I think he just likes that fact of playing on the ground outside, so because he loves it we spend a lot of time at soccer games. Joaquin normally plays Goalie but last night he played on the field and I was mighty impressed, he even scored an awesome goal.



Since my last post I also had a birthday which was great. My family came over for cake and ice cream and I received some lovely presents. And my lovely Joaquin took me out on the town to a very nice dinner and a much needed night away.



Love you all!! Take Care!
