Growing up

My little Evan is growing up! I have said it before and I am sure that i will say it a hundred times more. Next week He turns 4! I can hardly believe it. But I have been noticing lately that more and more he is starting to have quite the social life outside of me. Weird. I mean i like that he is independent and that he is not a clingy bug. But it is odd to have my child, need me for o long and now just suddenly be on his own in some respects. He has his soccer team now and his preschool group and church friends. I am so glad that he is showing promise at turning into a well functioning adult one day. I just wish he would cuddle a little more often while he is still little. Here are some pics of his preschool friends, which we adore!! Thanks for being part of the gang!

Mother's day


So I had a great Mother's day!! Saturday we took my Mom out for Gilato at a new little place we love close by, and exchanged gifts My Mom got me the cutest gum boots. Now I can splash in the puddles with the kids, and now I have my very own weapon of defense against all the mudd outside my door! i can't wait for just the occasion to wear them. I also meant to get Kent to take a picture me dressed up for church but I toally forgot. I had the perfect accessory! Evan had made me a colourful pasta necklace. It looked like the rainbow in giant penne noodles. I actually got a few compliments on it and may just wear it again! Our ward finally got the mother's day gift right! In the past they have done plants and such, which for me really is just one more thing to keep alive! All I want is a treat, choclate actually. Well this year they got it right! Callebeau choclate bars for everyone!! made my day! kent was amazing with the kids all daya nd le tme take the longest nap ever! Whilest he made us dinner. Steak, mashed potatoes, and cesear salad, with Lemon frizzante to drink! I was feeling quite taken care of! All in all it was a wonderful peacful and very enjoyable day. Thanks Babe for making it happen!

This gets personal!

So, the sad day has come to wean Seger. It's a bitter sweet moment in time for me. i am really in some ways excited to have my body back to myself, i'm excited to be able to wear the rest of my wardrobe, i am even a little bit excited to be flat again (although I am sure that will fade when i look down and just feel pathetic!) But Seger might be my last baby. We don't know yet but if he is, then, this is it. I will never do this again. I know it had to end sometime, but I just guess I was never prepared for the whole having, fedding, providing for your infant thing to end. It's as if in my mind I was going to suckle a baby till I died or something. Ridiculous and depressing I know but the alternative is NEVER again. Seger however is adjusting just fine!!! He's like bring it on! I don't think he cares where it comes from as long as there is lots of it! i even let him hold his own bottle today and feed himself. Freakin out! He's not a baby anymore! Sad.

This is something someone made out of their old bra. Maybe Vienna is getting a new toy! hahaha.

Mudd!



Okay so i am loving my new beautiful home, however, and I know there shouldn't be a however but there is. I hate the mudd! We are surrounded by dirt/ mud, oh and it's raining. We are the first house to move in on our block i think and therefore have a long time coming in this stuff. I don't even have a driveway or sidewalk for that matter, just dirt and more dirt! Our landscaping can't go in soon enough. But we have to wait for them to do our final grade first. In the mean time..... the day after we moved in we hadn't put the safety locks on yet and evan let himself and Vienna outside. Evan showed some self control, were as Vienna within seconds was in the biggest sink whole of mud she could find and then lost her shoe and then stepped in it with her sock. This was the result! YAY!

I have no patience!

Okay so i wonder if it's not actually that i don't have patience or if it is rather that I like praise? I am so proud of how cute this quilt turned out for Vienna's room. It's not fantasticly complicated but I really wanted to use a real plether of fabrics, so i kept it simple. Pictures of her room are still comiong I just couldn't resist a little tease. Lucky for me vienna loves her quilt to and it is really helping bring htings together. These were taken late at night before i put it on her bed so the lighting isn't great, but enjoy your peek none the less.

been a long time!

So we are officially moved!!! it was a long day april 29th but we were able to make it happen with help from all of our family and some friends. So the unpacking is in full force and I have even found some time to finish Vienna's quilt!! So we are that much closer to some unvieling pics of the house. i think I'll do it one room at a time, make it more dramatic! maybe just one room per week even, really create a cliff hanger situation! Anyways Vienna's will be the first to be revealed, hopefully in one more week! It's gonna be gorgeous!!!
In other news my baby boy isn't so baby anymore! Evan had his first soccer game on sat. And despite the disorganization of a U4 soccer league, e managed to score a goal! He was so proud of himself!! I wish you all could have seen him adjusting all of his equipment and grinning from ear to ear running htat ball down the field. It was about half way through the game that he realized that there was an objective and that he was gonna get himself a point no matter what. Towards the end of the game one of the other teams players grabbed Evan around the waist when he was on a roll down the field and it completely brought him to tears. " that kid tried to stop me!!!" poor guy!






More blogs coming your way. i have so many saved up in my mind, now I just have to remember them! Stay tuned!
