7 Months Old!!

Wow, Ikey turned 7 months old yesterday. I know everyone says this, but I must reiterate that time indeed goes by wickedly fast. My little munchkin is getting so big. We’re over half way done the baby stage, I hate that. I love where he is right now. He’s not quite crawling so my world… Continue reading 7 Months Old!!

Christmas

Ikey hasn’t really stopped sleeping since we got home two days ago. He slept on and off the entire flight and has only woken up to eat since. He is a little less lethargic today but still sleepy sleepy sleepy. The poor little boy has been cutting BOTH bottom teeth at the same time. I… Continue reading Christmas

Ready for Pre-School?

The world of color has now opened up to Silas.  Either this boy is a liiiitle extra extra or some parents don’t take the time to teach their kids colors.  Everything is now being named for it’s color.  We’ve gotten down blue, green, orange, purple, yellow, red and brown.  Today I taught him white so… Continue reading Ready for Pre-School?

Merry Christmas

Silas has croup, Ikey has a fever, I’m sick with something.  Ikey wont stop crying unless he’s sleeping.  I’ve spent two nights in bed with a toddler (which I actually enjoyed…mmmm cuddles).  I think Isaac was up like 15 times last night.  Yaaaay. The good thing about this?? It’s Christmas and Silas can’t scream when… Continue reading Merry Christmas

Burnin the Calories

So it’s official.  I can’t stay away.  Must blog. I’ve realized that I’ve been doing more exercise than normal these days.  I’m sore from all the food I’ve been munching on.  My jaw is literally…sore.  I really don’t feel like I’ve been eating so much but I guess I have been.  I haven’t been over-stuffing… Continue reading Burnin the Calories

“onstuvwx. K, I writed.  and I think that’s it”. That’s what Isabelle my neice wanted to say to everyone.  I was hoping she’d elaborate a bit more but that’s all she had to say. Silas is getting sick so I wanted to give him some tylenol because he just didn’t want to do anything but… Continue reading onstuvwx

I’m Here

Here I am writing from Manitoba.  I don’t know if I’ll be a very good blogger for the next week because of my situation.  There’s a lot going on. The flight yesterday was….well lets just say I’m glad it’s over.  Silas was terrified and screamed to high heaven.  I guess it helped him sleep well… Continue reading I’m Here

Stupid Balloons

I hate Michaels, no I love it…but these gosh darn balloons in the front have been there for an eternity, they’re fizzled and floppy.  I just about threw them in the garbage today.  Silas sees them every time we go in there and demands that he has them.  He screamed almost the entire time that… Continue reading Stupid Balloons

Thoughts on Christmas

Ugh, I got a horrible case of the sleepies today.  I’m just exhausted and I can’t think straight.  I think it’s stress…and lack of coffee.  I was going to go make some but I somehow got distracted…as usual.  It takes me most of my day to drink my one cup of coffee. I wish Christmas… Continue reading Thoughts on Christmas

Clean Clean Clean

I’ve been cleaning up a storm this morning.  My sister Jill should be here any moment.  I only didn’t get to the dusting and moping and I’m annoyed but I’m exhausted.  I suddenly got hyper focused on making my upstairs bathroom perfect so that mainly took all my time today.  I hate it when I… Continue reading Clean Clean Clean
