Hello From Florida

We've been to the beach, we've been to the playground and we've been in the pool this vacation is a blast!

Ha Ha Nik and Michele this one is for you!!!! No really I'm done packing :P

I would also love to thank you all for your emails and excitement for us! I will get back to you all soon. Hopefully while I'm laying on the beach next week :)

Packing

If you could see threw the computer right now you would see that I am all packed for Florida, what I haven't mentioned Florida to you yet? Well that's because...... you can fill in the blank with a really good excuse and we'll carry on. Now the packing thing if you payed any attention to the packing job I did when leaving Thunder Bay you'd know that I'm lying about being done, cuz I won't be done till I'm running back in the house to get this or that, but I've made a list and there are piles. We are headed to somewhere in the north, with lots of beach. We've got our pails and shovels ready, Ethan's been practicing his shoveling skills on the hardwood floor and not getting the desired results. The kids and I leave here tomorrow morning, we're staying in Woodstock for the night so we can get a head start out of London when Ant lands. Then from there I think it's only a 20 hr drive or so, how many times do you think we're going to watch Nemo in that time span?????

Happy Valentine' s Day

I don't have any cute valentine's pictures to post and I thought about adding more of my personal art, but decided against it. You have been subjected enough, for at least a month or so.
We didn't have a very romantic day, but someone bought us lunch :) so I can't complain. Ant is in Calgary (Surprise!) So when a friend of mine needed a ride to pick up her new car, I was all over it. This dealership made my day, they had a fenced in play area for the kids, they didn't want to leave. That was until Ethan was bribed with food and Ava was about to be left behind. It's amazing how toys just don't seem that cool when your surrounded by strange car salesmen.
Thanks for lunch Michele and Cory!

And Grow We Will

Our Family is growing......


I know an ultrasound picture would have been better but the hospitals printer was broken, so I tried my had at art, and well.....
We are proud to announce that we are expecting ONE Bambino to arrive in September.

Note: Ant wanted me to mention that this picture isn't 100% accurate..... I don't wear dresses

A Picture Update

I think it might be over a month now since I've posted any new pictures....



This morning I had the windows open and we danced around the house with the music up.
What a beautiful day!

A playgroup reject

I was rejected from a play group today. I don't live in the area, you have to live in a 6 block radius to play with these kids. They were kind enough to let me stay today seeing as I drove over 40 mins to get there this morning. Well next week we'll try some others and see if they will let us play :)

Escape From Lock Down

I know, I know, he's two and a half, what did I expect?
That he'd stay in lock down forever?
I was hoping that's all.
So nap times these days are a little more hectic, Ava being in a big girl bed usually just plays. Felling bad for Ethan she will fill up his crib with as may toys as it will hold till the boy falls asleep. Sometimes passing out herself sometimes not. Well today as I tried for a little time for myself(you know to do dishes and such)..... a really cute little boy's head stuck out of the bedroom door. It was covered with the biggest proudest smile that any boy's face could hold. After two tries to return him to prison Ethan too has been transfered to a Big Boy bed let the sleeping games begin....
