Hi, yes it has been a while. Sorry. Things have been so hectic with me lately. So no, I don't work at Kindale which is what you're thinking, Keira. I only worked there one day and then got my job at NONA. I think I posted this before but you must've forgotten. Kindale was not exactly what I was looking for, but NONA is in my field. I am a behaviour inteventionist for autistic children and their families. It's wicked great! I love it! I will work there until i go back to school in Vancouver or Victoria next Sept. I am excited for that too! Still studying for my GRE now though.

Wow, your babies are growing so fast!

April Shower

My cousin Teri is throwing me a shower this weekend for the Keough family. It's so nice of her! I can't wait. Angelina had more than one shower but Roman never got one. He will love it; all those Aunties and cousins to hold him and talk to him. He'll be in heaven. Angelina will like it too; all those presents to open and stuff to play with.

The other morning Angelina lined up some letters on the fridge and then pointed to them and said, "M-o-m-y. What does that spell? It spells mommy!" What a smart cookie. I certainly don't drill this stuff into her, she just picks it up so easily.


Roman already has two teeth coming up; these kids do everything early! He also has started eating pablum and rolling over. He's still a big jolly fat guy, and the most talkative kid ever! As soon as he wakes up in the morning he starts happily hollering, grunting and squawking.

...and now he wears it!

Rock on, pudgy prince

This is a picture of Roman's skinny legs in December...

...and here they are now, so big and squishy!

Ah, Ah, Ah, Ah, Stayin' Alive...

It was Kirsten's birthday on the 8th! Happy 26th, old lady. And happy telescoping! have you used it yet? I can't get that MLS number to work, is the condo still for sale?

Oh yeah, I don't think I ever mentioned moving east again. It's getting kind of complicated with this Ontario company; it looks like either we will stay here for one year and then take that job (that's what Matt's work is pushing and I am dreading) or we will just find something else and go in the fall like we want to. Either way, we do still want to move to Ontario.

It's so good to hear from you guys. Wow Robin, I haven't talked to you in ages! Are you still working at the mental health place? It's in Armstrong, right? Kirsten knows about it becuase her mom worked there.

Remember Linus from the Peanuts (Charlie brown)?

Hi guys
Wow, so many of you have all this great news to report! For me, it's same old... going to work everyday forever, coming home and making dinner or going out for dinner, doing the dishes, sometimes watching a movie or going out with friends, and then going to bed. Pretty boring life I lead LOL.

So Angela, I saw that you know Sheena from paintballing with all those people. That's cool! I have never been paintballing, but it sounds like you're hardcore and way too good for me to go with! :P

Keira, your kids are adorable! I love them! Are you guys moving away? What have you been up to? Matt is all fancy and formal with his job now. Sounds really cool and interesting!

Well just thought I would check in and catch up with you guys. Have a nice week.

Puppies!

Lola Beans had her Puppies April 12th. one male and one female. They are so cute. the male has more brown then the female. Both will be under 5 pounds and will be non-shedding.

Little bits of news

Keira thank you so much for visiting with me when I came down. And sorry I couldn't make it back to your place after Costco. I found that I had to barf like crazy after a all to yummy ice cream cone...
But yes, a little new from our way. Drew and I are moving to Kamloops and buying a nice condo. its on MLS in south Kamloops listed at 189900 if you wanted to check it out.
I have some job interviews in Kamloops on the 9th and also will be looking at the condo along with some others as well.
Lola is getting so friggen fat with her puppies ready to pop out in 10 days! I can't wait to see them all.
My pregnancy isn't working very well and i have had an AC check up and the results came back pretty harsh.I wont go into details in case I offend someone. But yes it was apparent from the begining with an ultra sound that showed the babies heart beating at an extra slow pace. And it doesn't help that I have now lost 30 pounds in total in the 5 weeks I have known I was pregnant.
This has been a really hard last couple of days. Besides me and my pregnancy we found that Drews mom is doing really quite badly. Thus the move back to Kamloops to be close to her.
other then those couple of hard things to deal with Life is still staying pretty exciting with Lolas puppies and the new place we buy.
Oh My birthday is on Tuesday and my lovely husband bought me a telescope! I can't wait till I get away from overcast Vancouver to sunny Kamloops so I can use it.
thats it.
hope everyone has a great week

Can't believe it's April already!!

Hello Everyone!!
Just thought I'd write a quick note to say hello.....been a busy couple of weeks with work, social life, family, friends etc....sometimes I wish I was a teenager again everything seemed so much easier.
Mine and Lee's road trip was wonderful - if you're on facebook all the photos are on there, I'll try to post some on here soon. Overall the weather was great, cold but good....the roads were all clear, the skies were clear for the driving days. We stopped in a lot of cool towns, saw some cool things (World's largest teepee, largest piggy bank, largest truck). Had a wonderful 4 days visit with my Mom and Bill (step-dad) - 4 days was just enough though hahaha - good news though lee and bill got along marvelously well and his 2nd time meeting mom was just as good as the first. Love it!!

Anywho...I'm at work so I should get working, I'm off to Whistler tonight until Monday afternoon....going away with Lee and his buddy Adam, we rented a cabin and we're going to do some skiing, snowboarding, drinking, playing wii, movie watching etc. Good times for sure!

Hope all is well with everyone - keep blogging!
