Thank you to my sister Jennie for sending me this instruction leaflet that she received in the mail the other day. I think it’s important for all of us to take all of these things very seriously. If I had this on my wall 2 years ago I might not be in this pickle I’m… Continue reading If Only I Had Known

Naked Mommy
(That title is going to give me some uncomfortable search engine hits I just know it) A few months back Leanne and I were chatting and somehow the topic of me showering with my kids was brought up. She brought up that Silas is going to start remembering things soon so I should probably stop… Continue reading Naked Mommy
Still Sick
Ikey is still under the weather today. I don’t know what the issue is. If he’s still got a fever tomorrow then I’ll go make sure he doesn’t have an ear infection. I hope this boy doesn’t get them! He’s still sleeping often and not wanting to eat much. He just wants to nurse. I’m… Continue reading Still Sick
World Pond Hockey Championships.
I’ve decided to write my blogs at an earlier time. I always have 30 mins at the computer in the morning in front of my light therapy thingie. I’m finding when I write when both of the boys are asleep I’m losing some good “me” time that I need. SO!! I have the COOLEST step-dad… Continue reading World Pond Hockey Championships.
Water Boys
We got to go swimming today! The in laws are out for a quick visit so we all went to the pool at their hotel and it was so much fun, I didn’t want to leave! Silas, Isaac and Lucas all loved the water. I’m so pleased to see how happy my boys are in… Continue reading Water Boys
Rub A Dub Dub
Lucas is an easy going fella so Colin and Leanne put him down to sleep at our house sometimes so we can stay awake until all hours sipping wine and watching movies :). He always needs a bath before bed. This is the first successful bath Silas and Lucas have taken together! Remember, we’ve had… Continue reading Rub A Dub Dub
Aha?
You know those “aha” moments where you figure something out about yourself? I had one of those today. I was sitting cross-legged on Silas’ floor with Isaac nursing. I was rocking back and forth noticing the burning sensation in the back of my throat. The honeydew melon I had eaten gave me that feeling. I… Continue reading Aha?
Dancing Mennos!!
Well, I know the Menno genes run deep in Brent’s side of the family but I think mine over-took the boys a little this morning as they were hanging out with Auntie Jennie. It’s not every day you get to see some Menno’s dancing! We took that this morning. It’s always nice when Jennie comes… Continue reading Dancing Mennos!!
If They Only Knew…
I can’t imbed this video…go check it out, it’s funny.
Matriarch Mushroom Soup
When I was pregnant with Silas I was horribly sick. I was throwing up for at least 7 months. I spent a lot of time on the couch in front of the TV. During that time I discovered something: The Food Network. Never was I attracted to cooking shows before and I don’t actually remember… Continue reading Matriarch Mushroom Soup
Mud Puddles, Snow and Worms
Who taught Silas to kiss obscure things? Was it me? Was I thinking about his lips meeting the muddle puddle today as he bent down to give the beloved thing a kiss? Or the worm that I dug up for him that got a sloppy one as well? There’s nothing much better than watching your… Continue reading Mud Puddles, Snow and Worms
