Hey guys! We're getting close to making final decisions on which songs are going to go on the album, and it's pretty exciting! The last few days have mainly been recording still, and just finalizing the songs to see which ones will be the best fit. If you've been reading the alloy.com blogs I've been doing, then you probably already know about what happened this weekend with my brother and sisters visiting to come to Miley Cyrus's sweet 16. It was a lot of fun, and it was cool being able to spend some time with them. It was just unbelievable how big of a birthday party it was! I've never seen anything like that haha. I put some pictures up on the alloy blog, but I have some more to show to you guys too. So last night I helped out Brooke and her Husband, Dave, with rearranging their stuff in the bedroom haha. I don't think I was a whole lot of help, but it was still fun. We listened to music, talked, and... moved stuff around lol. Brooke's been in Arizona for the past week or so, so it's nice to have her back! But she's actually going to try and give me a haircut here before I leave to do some more recording. Brooke's awesome haha. We only have a little bit of time for that though so I better get going and I'll talk to you guys later!

P.S. A song I've really liked lately is Little Things by Colbie Caillat. So if you're looking for a song to listen to and you haven't heard it before, you should check it out.

David Archuleta, the cutie-pie runner-up from last season's "American Idol" has signed with Azoff Management. That could be good news for the singer's career, as Azoff has launched several careers including The Eagles, Christina Aguilera, Neil Diamond and Morrissey.

Celebrity News Service was pleased to learn that Archuleta's career will be in capable hands. Azoff's Jared Paul will be managing Archuleta, and he also steers the careers of Nick Lachey and New Kids on the Block.

Archuleta's dad, Jeff, has reportedly been a difficult stage dad but will now co-manage his son's career. Hopefully with the new management Archuleta's career will take off, just like his first song "Crush" has.

19 Entertainment gets first dibs on "Idol" finalists for management, but the company apparently passed on Archuleta -- no word on why that happened. They did sign last year's "Idol" winner David Cook.

Archuleta does remain on the 19 Recordings roster, and the company is reportedly intimately involved in overseeing his first album, which is due out November 11. (Cook's debut drops a week later.)

Celebrity News Service is hoping for good things for young David, because as "Idol" judge Paula Abdul said, he is so cute we just want to pinch his head off and hang it from our rearview mirror. Well, let's not go that far -- but we do think the kid can sing.
