Forgetful...

So I FINALLY was able to REMEMBER the password to my blog! Yay, I'm back! It's been driving me nuts for the past month or so. As of late, MANY changes have come about...let me tell you about em;)

After applying to (possibly far over 10,000) different jobs, Deven scored an interview with CBRE and is currently their NEWEST EMPLOYEE!!!(Thanks to Shandi for the recommendation!!) He was so stoked when he found out he got the job. Shortly after his interview, he got a phone call saying he was one of the top to 'candidates' for the job after all the interviews had finished. Then about a week or two later they called him in the morning telling him when he would start:) I couldn't be more excited for him.

(!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

On another note, I have started working part-time as a BALLOON TWISTER and FACE PAINTER! WHOOP WHOOP!! It's been SOO much fun! What makes it even better is that I have the beautiful opportunity to twist and paint with my good friend Tanya. I'm sure her company makes it all the more entertaining. We can both be such goofs when we're together....but still remain very professional of course ;o) Yes, I am working for a clown...and NO I will not pursue a career as a clown, I simply just twist balloons and paint faces. Hahaha..(bet you were curious though Huh??)

Porter is doing GREAT and has a new-found love for trains, trikes, any sort of ball, cars, his Papa and books, playing outside, going on walks walks with mom and daddy...

He now recognizes and points to his nose, eyes, mouth, teeth, ears, head, hat, fingers, toes, feet, hands, shoes, socks, and so many more things. He has added MANY more words to his ever-growing vocabulary as well...

He can say:
Mom/Dad
Papa/ma-ma (grandma)
Shoe/Sock
Cheese
Choo Choo/Vroom Vroom/Ooo-Ooo-Ooo/Meow/Woof Woof
Thank You
Ball
Touch down (deven has been teaching him this since he was IN the womb:))
Chair
Up/Down
Pizza
Oooo 'Tinkey'! (Eww STINKY!)
I am sure there are many other words to add to the list but I can't think of them right now:(

Yesterday we returned from our AMAZING weekend stay with Deven's brother Derik and his beautiful family in Salem, OR. We went to celebrate our nephew, Isaac's 4th Birthday. Porter had SOO much fun playing with his cousins, aunt Kelly and uncle Derik and of course, maa-ma and papa Munns:) Isaac was too funny, I was told by Derik and Kelly that on Friday morning (we had not arrived until Fri night) Isaac didn't want it to be his birthday and was so upset that he erased Kelly's "Happy 4th Birthday Issac" message on the blackboard and yelled at everyone after they sang "Happy Birthday" to him. Too cute! Isaac enjoyed the anticipation of the coming birthday more than the birthDAY because then he would have to wait another 365 days until his next one. SMART BOY! Thanks Derik and Kelly for such a FUN stay!
