Our Baby Boy


Just thought that I would do a post on my baby boy...not that he is a baby anymore. 6 1/2 years already, it is just crazy how time flies.

These two were taken when I took the little man camping, it was just the two of us and we had a GREAT time.

No matter how old they get they are still adoreable when they are sleeping...I'll probably even think so when he is 40. LOL!!!

This one was taken at the MFRC (military family resource centre) Family Fun Day. They put on a great day of games, prizes and just good ol' family fun.

Our Baby Girl

Just some pic of how adoreable she is...
Her first try at pudding
Cuddlin with the puupy
Loving the dishwasher

STYLIN'

Doesn't she remind you of Pebbles?????

Auntie Pam came for a visit and didn't keep her things out of baby's reach...

Just precious

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BABY!!!

Yesterday was baby girl's first birthday. I can't believe that it has been a year already....and what a year it has been. She has grown a ton and is starting the task of walking. I love this stage, it is soooo cute to see those little legs try to go. She says "HI" all the time and she has started saying "issat," which is her way of saying what is that. Here are a few pics from last night and her attacking her little birthday cake. James' parents are coming for a visit...(James is gone right now to get them) and we are going to have her birthday party this sat. Then she will have a bigger cake to attack. LOL.

Finally in the house

Yes we are in now and we couldn't be more happy. This place is amazing compared to any place I have ever lived before. IT IS HUGE!!! Well, for us it is. I think the 9 foot ceilings do it. We moved in 12 Aug and today we finally got our sod (grass) put down. I was sooo excited when Isaw the landscapers and the sod truck show up this morning I was litterally dancing around the house. I even rubbed it into our neighbour Sean..singing "Weeeee go-ot gra-ass" sounds childish but he knew I was only happy. There is sooo much sod that they will get part of their yard done too. YAAA It really will cut down on the dust and dirt in our houses and our yards will look sooooo much better. Once it is all done I will post a pic. So here is the house...

Long time gone

Well, I have not been on much in the last while but that is because I had ANOTHER surgery on my foot about 2 weeks ago. My foot had gotten soo massively infected that my foot was one red block with NO definition. By the time I got admitted into the hospital I still had to wait 5 hrs before they operated. While laying there killing time, I looked down and there was a red streak coming up my leg. Talk about scarey...usually that means some degree of blood poisoning the nurse told me. Nice eh ?? Anyways, I spent something like 6 days there (over the hot spell we were having here, my air conditioned room was great), then when I got home I was confined to my bed so I could have my foot elevated. Sounds good but in reality IT SUCKED!!! So secluded from the family, not being able to do ANYTHING. I'm glad that is over. The Dr. said that I can start putting some weight on it but I still have to remember to elevate frequently...whatever that means. LOL

Anyways, the house is done. We do our pre occupancy inspection tomorrow and our possession date is supposed to be 10 Aug, but we don't actually take possession because we have top do an occupancy inspection on the 11th @ noon which is when we are supposed to get our keys. Tell me this...why do they call it our possession day when don't even take possession???? We have the movers booked for the 11th all of our utilities are to be turned off here and turned on over there(which we did before they told us of this inspection on the 11th, originally they told us that we could move on the 11th). The problem is that now James has had to move the movers to the 12th because they won't move us on the 11th seeing how we won't have the keys until that afternoon. UURRRGGGGHHHHHHHH!!! Talk about frusterating. I don't know if that made any sense to you if not call me and I'll try to explain.

Note to Sean and Holli...make sure this doesn't happen to you. :)

Anyways, I will still be rather scarce here in the blogging world with packing and moving but once we get settled I'll get back on. Plus once James goes to the Gulf I'll be on here so much you'll all get sick of me.
