Holy... hot days....

I came home from the doctors this morning to this...

The cats are never in the same room together, let alone on the couch TOGETHER! It is so darn humid that the little one is following the older (wiser) cat around to the cooler places... lol... I love how he was stretched right off the couch though!!

Relaxing day with friends...

We enjoyed a relaxing afternoon with friends while the kids played in the water... perfect day for it, was far too hot to be indoors, or directly in the sun!! And we ended everything with fireworks in the park.. we all pooled our money together and put on a pretty good show... and the kids enjoyed themselves too!! ;)

...Happy Holiday...

Just a little something from yesturday... we went to the Loblaws in the south end for groceries and they had a face painter there. Shelby decided on a butterfly, but Owen was undecided so didn't get one. Looking forward to a relaxing day today with friends and fireworks tonight... I'll post more later from today.

Relaxing Friday...

Just a quick little something from last night... got together with the girlies and had panzies, wine, yummy treats and watch a movie for a friends birthday... we usually hit up the bar, but she wanted something low key this time around. It was a nice and relaxing night... but I came home so full and high on sugar that I crashed shortly after walking in the door!!

Happy Birthday again Jessica... and thanks... for the cookie... even if they couldn't spell it out right, it was still yummy! (it was supposed to say "coffee girls", not just coffee... lol)

Happy May 24!!

Holy... where has the time gone? Seems like only a couple weeks ago we were getting through February!!

Busy day today.. on no sleep.. well. sorry... 2 hours! And I'm expected to join friend tonight for dinner... oh I need to find some energy.. my eyes are burning already!

Grad pictures cam back today as well... not all that impressed, but they turned out alright... and they weren't that expensive... I guess you get what you pay for right?!

I've officially lost this everyday posting thing...

You never truely realize how busy life is until you do something like this... even to sit down for 5 minutes and try and take some of the day in feels like far too much to ask! Every night we are out doing something with the kids or for ourselves... soccer, swimming, friends, the park..... work... it never ends... but I enjoy coming back here ever few days... so I am going to try and keep it up on a every other day or weekly basis... whatever I can get on for!!

On to other things.... 8 hour registration exam was yesturday... talk about exhausting... I wrote last night right out of my week... I think I was the worst person to be around... it was so draining that I just didn't have it in me to say anything nice :( Sorry for anyone who hit my path last night.... :)

Another night of soccer tonight... and the park of course... now I head to work for the night.... blah... on a brighter night... I just accepted the first of 8 shifts at the hospital over the next few weeks... oh how I miss working there... can't wait to be back!!

The Last of the Tulips :(

Not some of my greatest picture taking abilities lately... but it's dark in the house and I had to note it... I cut the last of the tulips today :( This year was exceptionally short lived for them with the crazy weather... but it was nice to have fresh flowers in the house every few days.... till next year...

Cupcakes and Sleepovers.....

We decided to make cupcakes for our weekly "momma tea time", seeing as it will be Mothers Day and all, and also were surprised by a visit from Mckayla, who ended up staying for the night. The house was LOUD to say the least, but the cupcakes are baked and frosted and the girls are finally sleeping and Owen just passed out watching Project Runway with me... he tried... just couldn't stay awake any longer... lol

Been busy, busy busy!!

It seems life gets busier by the minute... and as soon as I get back and promise myself I'll work on this, it gets passed to the wayside again and I find something that is more important to do! I'm going to "try" and change that.. :)

That being said... this week was BUSY!! Soccer twice, swimming for both kids, start the new job on Thursday night, got hired at LHSC.... yep.. I got HIRED!! I couldn't beleive my ears... I mean, I was really, really hoping they would call me back, but to get that call, it was great news!!

Other than that... we are just enjoying the down time this weekend... the kids are watching movies nicely together and I've been able to get the majority of the housework and laundry done.

Life gets busy way too quickly...

Been away for over a week... and I can't even begin to remember all that has happened in the time that I've been away... all I know is I've been working through training like a mad woman and trying to get some time in with the kids when I can.

Training is finally done now and I officially start this Thursday... whoo hoo... and of course the summer schedules for the kids are picking up as well... Owen started soccer tonight... number 9 again this year... he was super proud of that... and they both start swimming lessons tomorrow. I'll post a few pictures from the past few days...
