Nathan in the tub

Nathan was sooo funny in the tub the other night, he saw his reflection the the drain dial and was totally enamored with himself.


Steve turns 34!

Steve turned 34 today.... I can't believe I am married to such an old guy... ha ha. We had a good day, the kids let us sleep in until 9 am (honestly can't say that has ever happened before) and we had a lovely breakfast, then headed out to the park, followed by a stop at the mall and home for a feast... the cake was delicious.








Just a few pictures taken today... Enjoying breakfast, Steve & his cake, Steve & Hannah at the park, Nathan in his big boy car seat, Steve driving to the mall, Hannah waiting to go shopping, Mommy taking her own photo, Hannah swinging on her own, then in the tunnel and sitting with her brother.

Some New Pictures



Hannah reading a NEW Franklin from Nan & Pop
Nathan says "NOT ANOTHER FRANKLIN... I AM GOING TO SCREAM"
He is begining to crawl forward... goes backwards quite nicely but gets frustrated when he gets further away form his toys.

Stollery Children's Hospital Radio-thon


For all of you back home, don't forget that the Stollery Children's Hospital Radio-thon starts today. Tune in an support a good cause. My friend Shannon Pasychynk will be on today Wed. March 21st on Ched at 12:30, Cisn at 1:15, and Joe at 2:00. For those of you who don't know who she is she lost her little boy Robbie, May 21st 2003 and I was one of his nurses. I had the great honor of being the one with his family on that final night. He was one very special little man and I will always remember him.


I BELIEVE
Diamond Rio

"Every now and then soft as breath upon my skin
I feel you come back again
And it’s like you haven’t been gone a moment from my side
Like the tears were never cried
Like the hands of time are holding you and me
And with all my heart I’m sure we’re closer than we ever were
I don’t have to hear or see, I’ve got all the proof I need
There are more than angels watching over me
I believe, I believe
That when you die your life goes on
It doesn’t end here when you’re gone
Every soul is filled with light
It never ends and if I’m right
Our love can even reach across eternity
I believe, I believe
Forever, you’re a part of me
Forever, in the heart of me
And I’ll hold you even longer if I can
The people who don’t see the most
Say that I believe in ghosts
And if that makes me crazy, then I am
'Cause I believe
There are more than angels watching over me
I believe, I believe"

My skate is falling off Mommy!
Here we go.
Hey Steve, how your back feeling?
I'm doing it!!!!!
I don't see what all the fuss is about, I am still in the same seat.
Pictures of the family skating this weekend... we decided to get out of the house and spread our germs around...haha.

Helping Daddy make pizza buns

Can I have some cheese please??

I'm doing it all by myself.

March madness!

Can't believe it is already almost the end of March... sorry it has taken so long to post again but everyone here has been down with a cold since we came home from Jamaica... Steve first followed by me and then the kids got it one on top of the other, fevers and chills for a couple of days plus all the other symptoms of a nasty cold. I spent 6 hours in "Emergency" yesterday because Hannah's eyes have been swollen for the past few days. Turns out she has bilateral ear infections and Nathan does too. (I say Emergency in quotes because 98 % of the people who use it either don' t have a family physician or if they are like us it take a month to get in to see your doctor for anything, so really it is not used as an Emergency room. I am not kidding I called Feb 27 to see if I could get Nathan in to see his doctor for a nasty case of eczema covering his back and diaper area and the earliest appointment that I could get was for March 26, needless to say we made another trip to the Oromocto ER that week. It feels like heath care in this province is years behind.) I did get both kids weighed however --- Hannah is 30 lbs and 35 inches tall and Nathan weighed in a 18 lbs 7 oz and is 28 inches tall. They are growing so fast. Other than the colds all is well here. The snow has really melted and hopefully we won't get too much rain this year. We did have snow this past weekend coupled with freezing rain and a beautiful snow fall aging this morning... but now the sun is shining and the roads are dry. Speaking of roads.... Steve drove to Halifax last Friday and can you believe it got our Jeep back!!!!!!!!! It was only in the garage for 30 days.... talk about service. We are just happy to have it back.
