Mommy and Mark are coming tonight to spend the night.  I’m going to have a delicious rib supper waiting… Continue reading Must Blog…

My Trip to the Shrink…she’s really not a shrink…I don’t think….

So, my counseling appointment went smashingly.  Gosh I remember why I love that woman so much, she’s so warm and nice.  It was good to hear someone say “of course you’re depressed, no WONDER you’re depressed”.  There was mention of drugs but I wont even consider when I’m nursing and I don’t think I’d consider… Continue reading My Trip to the Shrink…she’s really not a shrink…I don’t think….

Going to Counseling

So, I’ve done it.  I’ve bit the bullet and I have a counseling appointment this evening with my counselor from 3 years ago.  I really like her :). Before I got pregnant with Isaac I never thought I would be dealing with depression ever again.  I was doing SO well.  I was even really skinny. … Continue reading Going to Counseling

What a Weekend!

Oh glorious weekend?  Where have you gone? Saturday was amazingly sunny.  I got burned on exactly one side of my body.  Hot hey?  Brent went bright and early to pick up a used Little Tykes climber and slide from craigslist.  Once he got it home and unpacked we went to the park for some amazing… Continue reading What a Weekend!

Date Night!

Brent and I happen to have the best realtor ever.  He always sends us goodies and last month we won client of the month for referring someone to him.  So we got a $100 gift certificate for Olive Garden in Langley.  We went last night and it was wonderful and delicious.  I couldn’t resist getting… Continue reading Date Night!

Books and Lysol and Progress

I’ve been reading a very fascinating series right now.  The first book is called Outlander by Diana Gabaldon and I am now on the second book called Dragonfly in Amber.  I’m really enjoying this series even though the books are like 5 000 000 pages long. Anyway, I read this part last night that described… Continue reading Books and Lysol and Progress

Ikey Motorbikey

Can you believe that Isaac is 10 months old already?  He’s like, 10 and a half months actually.  That’s pretty dumb I think.  I’m going to miss having a baby around.  Hopefully we’ll be able to adopt a young one one day. Isaac has been doing some very silly things lately.  He really enjoys it… Continue reading Ikey Motorbikey

Oh…This and That.

I’m finding myself feeling more and more like I have absolutely nothing to say some days.  C’mon creative Leah brain, do your job! Silas has taken to his new bed rather nicely.  He was getting up yesterday and bringing toys into his bed when he should have been napping but he eventually settled down to… Continue reading Oh…This and That.

Big Boy Bed!!

Nothing out of the ordinary happened last night. Silas went to bed easily and slept through the night. He woke up in the morning to throw everything in his bed onto the floor and proceeded to stand there and squack until I came to grab him. The only difference was he was slept in THIS!!… Continue reading Big Boy Bed!!

A Vent and A Challenge

I’m going through this phase in my life where I’m getting really sick of our American culture. It’s so much about consuming. Consuming food, consuming “must have” clothes and products, self medicating through consuming. Buy buy buy and then buy some more because what you first bought isn’t good enough anymore. I especially have trouble… Continue reading A Vent and A Challenge

The Poo Disaster

On Sunday I was on my way out the door.  I was leaving Brent with the kidlets as they napped.  Isaac was having a very hard time falling asleep.  As I opened the front door I heard Brent open Isaac’s door and say “OH ISAAC”.  I thought Ikey just looked sad or something because he… Continue reading The Poo Disaster

A New Family Member!

So recently Brent and I have been pondering getting a pet. I’ve been searching through pet finder and looking at craigslist for just the perfect one. We didn’t want to commit to something that would require too much of our time but we definitely wanted something soft and cuddly. Both of us love so many… Continue reading A New Family Member!
