Oh well...nothing too exciting happened in the last week anyways! We finally got somewhere with the insurance! They ended up giving us $200 less than we paid for the car 3 years ago so I guess it was a good investment! We've been looking at cars and have seen some good deals but haven't bought anything yet. It hard to decide if we just want to get a cheap car and not make payments or get a decent car that will last but have to make payments. We really want a minivan but those are expensive but it might be worth making payments because if we get a smaller car/suv we still don't have room for anyone else in the car and when we have another kid which I'm sure will be in a couple of years, we'll have to upgrade to a minivan and we might not have a big down paayment then like we do now. Hmmmm.... We we to a small private dealership which I don't like but I was willing to try it. One van we drove was not in good condition and they acted like they had no clue that there was stuff wrong with it! Then we drove another- 200 Ford Windstar minivan. It actually seemed pretty nice and it was a great price. We couldn't get a straight answer about anything from the guy and when we asked for a carfax report he said we couldn't have it because their carfax was down. Um ok. He kept saying he would guarentee it was good and I said I wasn't signing anything without it. He reeked of alcohol and while were there he answered his cell phone and was talking to his friend about the party they were going to...but don't worry he invited us too.:) Then it was taking forever to run our credit so we asked if we could run our errands and come back at 4:30 and he said sure, they closed at 6. We came back at 4:45 and he asked what took so long so I told him we told him we'd be back at 4:30 and he said they closed at 6...he was like oh isn't it 6? Idiot. So when we asked what the outcome was and what the final price would be he of course couldn't tell us because everyone had gone home early and he didn't have access to the computer with all the info. He must not want to sell a car because we were coming back to pay for it! But now we're not so sure about his credibility and it concerns me buying a car from him so I think we'll look elsewhere. And anyways the guy was a jerk and doesn't deserve our money. They are finally coming to take away the civic today too. Good thing since we're taking up 3 parking spots! Hopefully we can fix the moldy volvo too so we can both have a car!
The boys are both doing great! Sammy is smiling so much now and is getting to be quite a chunker! He slepy 8 hours last night so that was nice! We're using some cradle cap stuff in the hopes that his hair won't all fall out like nathaniels but it makes his hair so greasy! It's gross. Nathaniel is still loving his bubble baths and is asking every night and morning! I asked Nathaniel this morning "Nathaniel do you know what time it is?" and he yelled "Time for ice cream!" It was so cute I had to agree! Haha. I know not a healthy breakfast but I really wanted some!:)
Nathaniels birthday is tomorrow! I can't believe he's already 2! We're having his party on Saturday. He's getting a cute red tricycle...I'm so excited to give it to him!:) Hopefully it fits in our new car so we can take him places to ride it!:) I'm going to go get him a cars pinata....even if no other kids come he'll still love it!:) I wonder if I could fill it with hotwheels...haha that would be so cool!
