Time for a new update

Is it me or do I start every post with some lame excuse as to why I haven't posted in so long and then I go on to point the finger to those who are actually worst than me? Well if it wasn't for Les and Auntie Berta posting regularly I swear the rest of us would have nothing else to read online every day .. so thanks guys!

I really have been busy though, trust me this time I have a good excuse. We did decide to buy the house closer to mom's with more land. I realize when I say outside the city I might be giving you a false picture. It is like 15 minutes from the downtown core and it does have it's own grocery stores, Walmart all the take out joints and Timmies like 7 minutes away. We also timed the drive going in both directions during rush hour traffic and in town was took longer even though it was a shorter distance. Not to mention all the perks that come with being closer to my mommy (hehe). JJ painted this beautiful picture in my head of sitting in my jacuzzi with a fire pit going and running around naked in the backyard .. it was great. Please keep in mind I'm not pregnant in that picture and it doesn't look so crazy, well still a little crazy I guess but I'm running around much faster since I don't have to carry around as much weight ... LOL.

I tried to find a house that looked atleast similar in structure and this is it, only difference being that we are going with a different colour on the outside, ours is a smokey grey.


One of the best selling features for me was the corner jacuzzie tub in the ensuite .. with the four kids running around I'm expecting to need a bath and a hiding place every now and then.

Needless to say we are very excited about the house and the arrival of The Boy (aka Baby Tito) ... and with a closing date of June 14 and a due date of July 1st, looks like we can expect a very busy summer. Oh and anyone thinking about visiting us we will be charging an admission price of one piece of sod per person, looks like not much landscaping is actually included in the price. What better way to work off the baby pounds though right?

... now let's see where did I put that box of donuts?

I just love the house and the fact that you are going to be closer. Now I can steal the children whenever I want and when Derek is away at work.

Sod or no sod, I'm positive you are going to love being land barons! Next to having kids/grandkids. there's nothing quite like it! A little piece of heaven on earth to call your own!

Love Auntie Berta
