Such a rough day!

Today Alexis had her 1 year booster shots. I think that they older they get, they harder it is for them to get their shots, or the louder they can scream. Anyway, she is out like a light now. Such a rough day. Dillon is a t Camp Wapiti. Apparently they go hiking everyday, they are shooting bows and arrows. Both him and Madison come back talking my ear off the entire way home. I am so glad that they are enjoying themselves. Dillon goes home tomorrow for a couple of weeks so his mom can get married. She is married on August 12. Happy birthday to Dillon, his birthday is on the 11th. He comes back to us for 2 weeks from the 16 of August to the 31 or 30 (whatever is the last day)Then he is gone to school. Grade 2. He has grown into such a little man. Telling Madison that he should go and kiss his room mate. Yup, they are boys. It was so great having Dillon here. We have so much fun with him here. He is a great helper too, of course when he wants to be. Anyway, should be signing off. Take advantage of the quiet time and maybe do a bit of tidying up, and relazation.

Happy Birthday!!!! TODAY

Today our baby is 1. She was born at 6:50pm 1 year ago today. OUr baby is not a baby anymore, she is now a toddler. Boy does that year ever go by fast. You don't realize the vast amount of stuff that they learn and develope in that year. When you first bring them home, they know how to scream, poop, and sleep. You have to burp them because they don't even know how to do that on their own. By the time that they turn 1, they are usually walking, saying a couple of words, eating solid foods, drinking out of sippy cups and some what entertaining them selves by getting into things they probably shouldn't. This is just amazing. I can't wait to see what comes in the next year and future years to follow.

Happy Birthday!!!!







Happy birthday to Alexis. She turns 1 on Tuesday. We had her birthday party this weekend. What an exhausting weekend!!! We had a houseful of people, apparently I invited way to much people. I think that there was about 25 adults. She has been blessed with a great big family. All that matters is that Alexis had a good time. She did that for sure. As you can tell, she made quite a haul with presents.

FINALLY PICTURES!!!!!!






Here are the pictures that I have been promising for the past 2 posts. The stupid blogger site thing wouldn't let the pictures be downloaded yesterday. I hope that these show everyone what we have been up to to deal with this extreme heat. The kids have been loving it anyway. Talk to you all later

Just an update. T

This weekend is Alexis' 1st birthday!!! Well, the party is this weekend. She actually turns 1 on the 1st. I can't believe time has gone by so quickly. She is walking all over the place. We even take her to the mall to go walking. Dillon is having a blast. We have been spending a lot of time indoors because of the extreme hot weather. I also wanted to send out a huge congrats to my friends in Dawson Creek on the birth of their new daught Karma Alexis. She was 5lbs 11ozs. The weather here has reached 34degrees. It is bloody hot. I didn't think that I would be affected this much by the heat being only 5 months pregnant, but holy moly, can I ever feel the heat. Well, I just have go and download the pictures of the kids on to the computer so I can post some great pictures.

just no time

It has been brought to my attention that I have not posted in a while. OOPPS. We have Dillon right now and have been very busy trying to entertain him. Every thing is going great. We are loving having Dillon here for the summer. There are pictures that will be posted as soon as I canget the time. Alexis is also walking all over the place. Another thing keeping me very busy. She has it figured right out. I think that we are going to go to the mall today to let her go and give us something to do. Everyone else is doing good. Bill and Kristin are making their wedding plans. Chris is being Chris. Mom and Dad are working. Quinn is working a lot, but enjoying his time with the kids when he comes home. It is nice, because that gives me time to catch up on everything. His brother Shawn is staying in our camper, it's nice to have an extra set of eyes to catch one of the kids doing something. Anyway, there are pictures to follow, hopefully very soon. Everyone have a great summer!!!!

summertime fun






The girls (Alexis and Brooklyn) have so much fun together. Those pictures were taken yesterday. They are definitely a handful when they are together. Can't you see the mischevious in their eyes? The other pictures are ALexis getting into dirt and trouble all by herself. Can you imagine what the two of them can do together? She had so much fun in the sprinkler today. She did not want to leave and go inside. He lips were turning blue because she was cold, but she wanted to stay outside. She is a very determined girl, that is for sure.

Well, today is Fathers Day, Happy fathers day to all you fathers!!!You deserve it. We left Alexis with a babysitter last night and she seemed to do alright. She didn't want to go to sleep, she wanted to socialize. Our little socialite. Bill and Kristin have set a date I think. June 30, 2007. Don't write it in stone. That could change very easily. Their baby is doing real good. She is getting bigger. Alexis is yabbering a lot more. Making alot more sounds when she is talking. She now says "hi". All the time. Dillon is coming to visit us. We can't wait/. He will be here July 4-August 2, and then August 15-Aust 31. We get him almost all summer. I can't wait to spend the summer with him. He is such a fun kid. Always cheerful and very very well mannered. He made Quinns day this maorning and called at 9:00am to wish him a happy fathers day. It was great that he phoned. It is great to hear his voice first thing in the morning. We miss him so much, can you tell? Anyway, ot much else going on. Went to parets for supper, that is always eventful. Quinn seems to enjoying his new job. He is not complaining about it, so that is always good. I am now a substitute for a day care center. I work when I want to work, don't when I don't want to. That's the cool thing about being a substitute. They even know that I am expecting at the end of November, they don't seem to care.
THE OILERS ROCK!!!! WE ARE GOING TO TAKE THE CUP AND BRING IT TO WHERE IT BELONGS!!! Just had to get that out. GO OILERS GO!!!! The game rocked last night for any of you that care about the Stanely Cup. Anyway, I will hopefully, no for sure get some sneeky, candid pictures of Dillon while he is here. I think that is the only way I will be able to get them. I am glad to see that people are actually reading this blog. It is so much easier to update everyone how we are all doing, rather then phoning people then forgetting to phone people. So, I will blog to you all another day. I am trying to stay regular with this, as Alexis permits. It is 10:30pm and finally sitting down to do this.

There is a picture of Dillon. It is a bit outdated, but as I said earlier, he is hard to get a picture of. This one is only 6 months old. Any way, enjoy!!

Holy cow

Heaven forbid you forget your username and password. That was next to impossible. Anyway, Alexis did take her first step!!!! She hasn't really done it much since. She prefers to crawl. She went outside yesterday and played with her bothers old tric, and walked holding onto the seat. She was all over the backyard. Anyway, I don't think that it will be long and she will be all over the house.I am going to try to post some pictures of Alexis and Dillon (my step son, for those of you who don't know that) Dillon is always so busy when he comes to see us that it is hard to catch him standing still to take a good picture. We went quadding and I couldn't even get a picture of him there because it was hard to catch him just sitting around. Alexis, so far, is a little easier. If she sees the camera, she will stop what ever she is doing and pose, then go back to what she was doing before the camera made an appearance. My brother in law, Shawn had his birthday yesterday, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO SHAWN!! Don't know what else to really blog, Alexis is getting into things. Trying to climb up on one of those free standing fans. NOT SAFE!!! Always chasing after her! Talk to you later
