So, I lost it all - my hard drive failed and is no longer readable. All my photos/videos of the kids since they were born are/were on it. So now I'll start blogging more frequently as it turns out this is my only backup!
So what's shaking? Jakey. He's shaking! He's started putting together 2-3 word phrases and you always know what he wants - usually me :) He also understands the concepts of Yes/No, and This or That, and If X then Y. Very cool! He's trying to swim, chasing after Hannah and whatever she is doing, and loves being treated like a big boy! He'll answer 'me to' when I ask Hannah something and desperately tries to be like her. Also, can count until almost 10, has a great grasp of his colors, and is repeating everything!
What else is shaking? Squirt - a.k.a. Hannah! She is developing a personality like no other! Knows what she wants and 'tries' to find a way to get it :). Is super into trying new things. Food, sports, crafts, she rises to the challenge. Lately she's been learning about emotions - whether something is silly, funny, sad, or boring. It's pretty neat to see. She keeps talking about how she'll become a big big big girl at her birthday and then she'll get to play golf and soccer - I think sooner! She's doing swimming and hockey now - hockey she's starting to get a bit more comfortable, swimming - loves it! Is finally coming out of her shell - very cute to watch! She really made headway when we were away - we should go away more often :) She's starting to learn how to write her own name, what people's full names are, and what their relations are. Pretty neat stuff! Soon we'll teach her our phone number - wow!
So it was a busy month! So we'll start with this past Friday ... (but with the loss of my hard drive I only have pics from yesterday/today).
Friday - swimming class (Hannah), park to meet up with friends, hockey (Hannah), Moxies with Ced & kids, home, golf at Thunderbird with Ced.
Saturday - hung around home in the morning, went to a bbq at KRC, then headed to Angie & Mo's to hang out at their pool, at night Ced headed out with Ken and me watched a whole lot of CSI.
Sunday - took the kids to breakfast/walmart in the am to let Ced sleep, then we all hung out until Kayla came. About 3 pm we headed to Angie and Mo's for some PS3 and then off to Boofs then Moxies, too many drinks!
Monday - we hung out doing crafts in the am with a small visit to the park, then the driving range - although we intended to do mini golf but got lazy, then it was back to Angie and Mo's for pool time and dinner.
Today - swimming lessons, then Jen & Sydney came over, then hockey, then Farm Boy, Tag A Long Toys, DQ, Future Shop, Macs Milk, and home!
Cheers,
Sharon
