I'm cool!

I did it!!! I joined the current decade!!
I have been a little behind the times since becoming a Stay at home mom 4.5 years ago, but today I am the annoyed proud new owner of an iPhone...Seeing that my husband is a technology genius, you'd think I'd be a little more in the loop...for the past several years I have been protesting that I do not need to be connected  to check Facebook or my emails every minute of the day...I get nothing that is seriously important and there is nothing more annoying than being out for dinner with my darling hubby (or friends for that matter) and the constant need to check his phone every time it beeps...sometimes I challenge Kirk to wait just 5 minutes and see if the world does infact carry on...It usually does!
The only reason I got the iPhone was because Kirk got the new iPhone 4 and well his old one was just sitting there...kinda seemed like a waste. My old phone flipped open and inside there were buttons that you could push to dial a phone #, sounds ancient right! Well it worked perfectly for this old cat...I suppose it will take some getting used to and I'm sure in no time I'll join the millions of smart phone addicts and be consumed by the beep...

Calling it...kind of!

Ok, I think I'm going to call it...Leah can walk! We have been on the fence for days, the thing is she can walk 7-8 steps if she wants to she just doesn't really want to...She has this funny monkey crawl/bum scoot thing that is super fast...I think when she is going to find trouble, she just wants the fastest way there...If it was the other 2 I would have called it official, so I'm calling it...who knows how long she'll prefer to monkey crawl...I really should get it on video before she stops doing it, its rather hilarious.

Also this past week she has had 3 teeth break through, one on either side of her 2 top front teeth and 1 back molar...I am hoping this combined with a runny nose and cough explains her mood, and that she is not really the handful she has been the past week! We've had to start doing little mini time outs with her aggressive behaviour. She is still hiting and scratching a lot, and constantly pulling Alyssa's hair, this week she has also adding in biting...Poor Blake has constant bruises on his ears and this week she is going for anything else, fingers, toes, arms...you name it...she left a bruise of teeth marks on Alyssa's arm the other day too. She doesn't get the time out bit yet, but I'm sure soon enough she'll put it together.

Nothing else really news worthy, just waiting waiting waiting for Spring to show up and all this snow to melt...I surprisingly didn't take a single picture this last week...So here are some rather dull videos instead!

I think he has his mothers love of sleeping!

WE'RE EXPECTING AGAIN!!!

I know, I know it's crazy isn't it? I can't believe it myself. I wasn't going to put it on here because it's obvious but wanted to make it official. I mean who would have guessed that we are expecting AGAIN!! It's official we are expecting Snow AGAIN today and tomorrow!! 5-10cms overnight!
Hahaha I saw this as someone's Facebook Status and thought it was hilarious, and sadly yes we are expected more stinking snow, not a baby :)

Sooo tired...

Not much new to report around here, just some new pictures to share...Happy Wednesday!

This whole walking thing has really been tuckering the little guy out...he's falling asleep in random places around the house...Leah is close behind, she took 4-5 steps today and I am *this* close to calling it official...



I love bath pictures they are such classics to look back on...
This one even comes with the quality of an old piucture...this camera aggrivates me to no end.

The boy after his bath...think he looks like his Daddy??
Just some more of the newest never ending game...


Our Little Climber not only climbs into things she will then stand straight up and clap...
Ekkk she freaks me out!
Alyssa had her friend Joy over from school. Alyssa is 4 days older than Joy.
I'm not sure if Joy is extra tall or Alyssa is extra short...Hmmm
Joy is full of energy, it was an exhausting 3.5 hour playdate, we played with literally every single thing we own, and had an injury to boot...Joy just lives down the street, I have a feeling we'll be in for some more tiring playdates over the summer!
Blake will often come over with a book and want you to read to him...Leah only got in on the action because Blake was getting attention from her Beloved Daddy...

These 2 crazy babies fight over who gets to be the one in the truck...Too Cute!

Friday Funny

This made me laugh...Why you ask? Because this is me every single day...I am a coffee addict and its true, my absent mindness just happens at a faster speed. So fast I don't even catch my errors until much later...The whole block of cheese in the pantry, or the milk being poured into the coffee machine instead of water for the 2nd pot of coffee...Juice in Alyssa's oatmeal. Give me a Starbucks Venti Americano and witness the insanity for yourself!!

Speaking of coffee and therefore mornings, I shall add 2nd day into my "new mornings", and I have failed miserably.
Day 1 started at 8:07am with Leah crying in the monitor...Shucks...messed up the first day...(but Oscar was up twice and the babies once so it was a bad sleep)
Day 2 started when Leah woke up for the day at 7am...7AM...How was I suppose to know she'd be up an hour earlier than normal??
I won't even pretend for 1 second I'll be getting up early Saturday or Sunday...
I guess there's always Monday!
