Happy Birthday Luke

Today our current baby turned 2. I can't believe how the time has flown, but he is definitley 2 ( in age and attitude). He is still fascinated with trains, cars, planes any type of automotive or transportation, but he is also a little soccer nut. I can't begin to guess where that came from! His vocabulary grows each day, as does his independance, and like many other parents out there, we just need to remind ourselves as well that this is a positive trait, even when it isn't directed quite as we'd like. Happy Birthday Luke, we love you.

Interesting....

So, I hooked up the camera to the computer to blog a few photos of Lukes birthday, only to find that we have a secret photographer in the house. I don't know when these were taken, but I can certainly guess by whom.

10 Years

If anyone can believe it, today was Aaron and I's 10 year anniversary. It is interesting to view how life has changed. 10 years ago we got married, this morning we were driving into Red Deer at 7:00 to pick up a car that 2 days ago was making terrible "clunking" noises and now there is nothing wrong with it, 2 kids in the backseat fighting and expecting a baby anyday. We didn't do much, since Mexico was our big celebration, and Aaron has a cold, but I did get roses, and I am still in love with my husband. I think that is the most important thing. Thank you Aaron for 10 wonderful years!

Finally ready?

So here is the final room done. We are sorted, organized and ready (I think). Now I just need something else to nest with. I have had Aaron hang almost all the pictures I had held off on, the house has been cleaned from top to bottom, so maybe I will take on Katie's bathroom downstairs. It is a little bland and it may just fit the bill. I will keep you posted.

Killing Time

The other day, I was killing time on Etsy and came across these really cute dresses, but they don't ship to Canada, plus I am too cheap. I figured I could make them fairly easily, and a couple of hours later here are the finished projects. They are called pillow case dresses, and probably were originally made with pillow cases, but I couldn't find fabric quite this fun in a ready made pillowcase.

Still Waiting......

As you can see by the pictures, I am not talking about the baby. It is officially spring and this is crazy! Now I know not all this has fallen in the last 2 days, (only half of it has) but still this doesn't look like optimism to me. The picture above is taken with me on the floor looking straight out. The bench on the left is the guide, if you can even see the bench!

Katie's First Skating Carnival

I had really hoped that I could upload the video with this, but an hour later and still no luck. O well. This was as you can see her first Carnival. She loved it to say the least. She is the epitomy of a performer. She loved wearing a costume as well as being the center of attention. She is the one in the front in the group picture. I have to admit, it almost made me cry watching her out there. They skating to Love me Do by the beatles and needless to say they stole the show as preschoolers often do.
