Honest.

Day 57

It has been snowing here.
Alot.
Winter has officially arrived in the Far North.
Or..well...southern Ontario.

Luckily the boys are getting old enough to shovel the walkway.
While Momma and Princess watch from indoors. Don't worry.They enjoy it. Most of the time.

Little girl boots are totally adorable.
But I can't wait to put them away and get out the little girl sandals.

{Wishful thinking????}

Day 51

My Daddy's birthday.

Day 50

This has been an unusual winter.

When others think of Canada, they think of cold weather, lots of snow and igloos.

No we do not live in igloos.

We have not had much snow this winter.

It has been cold, but not like past years.

Sooooo......on this day while the weather was mild and before what little snow we had melted, Rowdy and I built a snowman.

His name was Ralph.

The next day he was a small ball.

So long Ralph.

Day 48

For almost 3 years I have had a drawer I call "My Skinny Drawer". When I became pregnant with baby #3 I packed those jeans into my drawer...said an emotional goodbye and told them I would bring them out again soon.

The jeans have waited faithfully in that drawer along with a few pairs of black pants and sweaters.

I brought the jeans out of that drawer for the first time, gave them a kiss and said "Here we go".

One by one I put them on.

All the way on. Not just up to my thighs, but all the way on over my butt.

And I did them up.

I did them up!

I cried.

I hung them up.

I put my fat jeans into the drawer and told them I would never wear them again.

The End.

Day 47

I love this boy with all of my heart.

I especially love this boy when he is being goofy.



May all of you be goofy at least once today.



Try it.

Go ahead.



It's fun.

I want to always remember how much joy this pain in the butt dog has brought to my life. Who would've thunk it???

Day 44

8 years ago I was 5 days overdue.
8 years ago I was rushed to the hospital by my very nervous husband.
8 years ago I pushed and pushed and pushed.
8 years ago I became a mom to the most beautiful 8lb 13oz baby boy I had ever seen.
8 years ago, my life began.

Happy Birthday to my first born.

Day 43

He loves me! He really loves me!

My oldest child isn't exactly the most affectionate child.

It is rare to get a hug or a kiss without begging for one.

He never says the words "I love you" even though we tell him at least 10 times every day.



But......



He came home from school with a flower in his hand.

For his Momma.


I knew he loved me.

Day 39

Oldest child's newest obsession is horses.
Books.
Video games.
Movies.

They are all he talks about.
He knows what kind of horse he wants.
What he will name it.
How to take care of it.
Sometimes he even runs around the house trying to make the same noises as a horse.

Yes, really.

Day 38

To interested to take off their hats and coats.

Day 37

February Sunset.

Or I am just a suck.

Day 35

The stomach flu has hit our house with a vengeance.

Nurse Momma on Duty

Day 34

Ok, so there werent many picture-taking opportunities today as Princess was barfing all day and I didnt think you would want a visual.

Instead,I give you this.

Playdoh.
One of my favourite things in the world.

Middle child is having some difficulty grasping letter sounds and isnt the type of kid who will sit down and work from a notebook.

Sooooo.....we made letters out of Playdoh and he had to tell me what the letter was and the sound it makes.

And then he made a penis.

Day 33

Dear Family,

When this happens, please put on a new roll. Thanks muchly.

P.S. If you are unsure how to do it, let me know and I will teach you for the millionth time.

Love Momma
