Last Day!!

Today is Jacob's last day of his class and we couldn't be more exited!!! It has been a long 10 weeks! He has put in soooooooooo many hours! Waking up early and coming home after everyone else is asleep (including me). We are so excited to have him back! He has an interview this morning with a company called Cognizant. They were the ones that Revature groomed and customized their teaching for and they have a lot of spots they are looking to fill. Everyone in Jacob's class is doing the test/interview and they could possibly pick up every one of them. If not though, there are other companies that are still looking at his class that are interested. 

Yesterday Jacob had his final presentation. They were presenting their last projects that they worked so hard on for the last two weeks. Jacob had a scare because he went out early to prepare and his computer wouldn't turn on, which meant he couldn't attend the class, which meant he wouldn't be able to do the presentation. The presentation was for the clients that were thinking about hiring them on, their teacher (of course), and other groups. It was a really big deal. Well about 3 hours of quick thinking on his part, (and a lot of prayer), he was able to get it all fixed and figured out and was able to have it all ready to go in time for the presentation. 

Toothless

Do you remember how scary it can be to lose your teeth? I don't really remember, but with my kids, it seems like the first tooth is scary because you don't know what to expect. The second tooth usually comes out pretty soon after the first so it isn't too scary, but the third tooth takes a little longer to be ready. By then the two bottom teeth are usually mostly grown in and it's the fear is back, almost as if it was the first tooth again. 

Elijah has been working on his third loose tooth for a while. It was so loose that it could poke out sideways, but he was so afraid of getting it pulled out. 

Yesterday we went to the park for the morning. I tried all I could think of to get Elijah to let us pull it out before the park so it wouldn't get bumped out and lost because his tooth was just that loose. I didn't want him to be sad if it got lost in the woodchips. 

Well, we were at the park for about two hours and then Elijah went to Rachel and asked her to pull out his tooth, which I thought was the cutest thing ever. Cute that she wanted to pull his tooth out, and cute that he trusted her to do it for him and not hurt him. 

Thankfully we were prepared with a Ziploc baggie and a paper towel.

I just can't get over how adorable he is with his holey smile. 

Round 2

Rachel painted my face.

And I painted everyone else.

Face Painting

So I'm taking a face painting class online. I thought it would be a super fun skill to have! Anyway, here are my first three attempts. 

Rachel's was the favorite. Elijah hated his and washed it off immediately and Kent's wasn't as good as the picture I looked at for the idea for sure. We all got a good giggle out of it though.

Wells Fargo

We just found out that Jacob did not get the Wells Fargo job, and honestly we both feel relieved. Most likely we would have had to move to San Francisco where it would have been difficult to make ends meet. 

Now we just wait until Jacob's training is finished and see what comes up next!
