happy easter

Happy Easter! How was everyone's weekend?

Ours was pretty nuts. Steven had Friday, Saturday and Sunday off, and we ended up having Easter plans every night so it went by really fast! Not to mention that I'm now REALLY full. You know the feeling - it's the same at Christmas when you have gathering after gathering and you never really get un-full. Tomorrow may have to be vegetable day.

Unwinding is pretty tough too sometimes. Jordan came down with a cold over the course of the day, and at midnight tonight she woke up and cried a bit. Steven got up with her. Turns out she peed her pants. After that matter was taken care of he came back to bed, and then she started calling out for one of her aunties that had been here earlier. I went in to remind her that everyone else had gone home to bed, and was now sleeping. Of course, it's now 1:18am, and I can't fall back asleep. Checking facebook and blogging seems the next logical step.

Here's hoping that everyone had a good Easter weekend - and hopefully you didn't all come down with some nasty virus!

Nope, definitely had a great weekend (got the virus over with a few weeks ago)! Tom and I went to Ottawa on Saturday. I have some relatives there and more flew in from Manitoba. Great food, great company, great trip to the parliament buildings at midnight with my teenage cousins --- the whole mentos and diet coke thing really works!

Sounds like you had a good weekend! I bet living out there you don't feel bad for people who complain about having too many gatherings to go to.

Now you'll have to post pictures of the parliament buildings!

Question: Does the baby in your belly really flip around that much???

Apparently they move constantly, but right now it's too small to really feel it. I may have felt a little nudge the other day though, so I'm hoping that it makes itself known a little more!

two things: one to do with running, the other with my fastly-deteriorating fashion sense

I've started running again. I'm not sure if I ever "officially" stopped, but I only ran twice in August, totalling about nine miles, so I kind of felt like when I restarted in September that I was, well, restarting. This is probably not even blog-worthy. It would probably be better served disappearing into the chasm that is facebook, but I need blog topics, so here it is. I once had a friend (coughcoughangelacough) who said that she didn't run outside because she was afraid that just maybe, she ran "funny," and people would see her. Being an awesome friend, I insisted that surely she didn't. I lied. I have never even seen her run. I have just recently decided that she does run funny. Wanna know why? (as if spell check didn't underline 'wanna') Everyone runs funny. Quite seriously, everyone . I prefer to run outside, because the treadmill sucks my will to live, and a mile or two in I turn into a sighing, eye-rolling teenager, o

MIA

No, my secret alias is not Mia. MIA = missing in action. I have been avoiding posting on here. Why? Because I don't have a ton of stuff to write about. Also, I've discovered that my blog is being followed by a couple of people I'm not related to. Although I'm super excited about it, I'm also a little intimidated! Sounds silly, I know. Hear me out. You know how you can be a teenager (I'm not a teenager, we're just being hypothetical) and have big thick coke bottle glasses, zits all over your face, big baggy pants and a baggy sweatshirt hiding the rolls hidden underneath and a perm that went very very wrong and is now only curly on ONE SIDE and your mom still tells you you're beautiful and she'd love to trade faces with you? You know how that feels? You don't have to question it too much, because she's your mom and you know she's probably a little biased. Blogging is a little like that. Until now, only my friends have read my blog. I coul

christmas time's a coming

Only 23 days until Christmas! Remember when we were kids, and Christmas was all about time off school, lots of treats (chocolate, candy canes, oranges, turtles!), new Christmas dresses for the church concert, lights, music, decorations, noisy and exciting gatherings at Grandma's house, Christmas episodes of our favorite tv shows and of course presents! The list goes on and on. I still find Christmas exciting. Yet, now the season holds more than just the "fun" stuff. Now we have to worry about scheduling in all the different families and parents, buying gifts we can't necessarily afford, making dishes to bring to the different gatherings, hoping that people will understand that we need to share the holidays with many others, and hoping that nobody will be hurt if our time with them is short. I wonder if I'm doing a good job of making the holidays fun and enjoyable for my kids, and if I've bought the right gifts. I worry about what five days in a row of late ni
