Happy Birthdays Everywhere
Just wanted to throw out a Happy Birthday to Kelsey and Leslie today ..
We are just so busy all the time with flooring and cabinet appointments and Wrestling and Hockey tournaments that we just don't seem to have time for anything else lately. Kelsey has joined the local Wrestling club since the season is over at school until next year and where she's changing schools we're not even sure it will be available to her. The club is at a more serious level also so Kelsey is now practicing four times a week .. thank goodness hockey season is over until camp starts in July. I'm not even sure how we will fit in Kelsey's practices 4 times a week and Caits 5 times a week starting in September .. if you add those up they make more than 7 days per week which means JJ and I will have to split, not to mention we'll each have a baby with us now .. AHH my life is scary!
How is going good. As of last weekend we had rocks where the driveway should be and the spot has been cleared for our house and the digging truck bulldozer machine thing is on the lot. We had flooring and cabinets almost completely narrowed down .. now we are on to bath stuff, paint colours and light fixtures. You know sometimes I think to myself that resale may have been easier .. especially with my hormones raging and JJ trying to quit smoking. If I have one more breakdown in Home Depot I'm sure they'll take me away to the looney bin.
Ok off I go to start researching colours for the kids upstairs full bath. Any suggestions for a kid friendly neutral type colour .. I just don't even know what to pick anymore!
PS - Sorry I'm not taking the time to proof-read this .. hopefully you'll get the jist of what I'm saying.

Hey they're not stuck after all
It seems as though I had a slot in my computer that read memory cards .. who knew? Here is Joeye, Cait and Kels .. wrestling, playing hockey .. at the lot .. ahh you guys are smart, I'm sure you can figure them out. Ohhh and I don't know why I look so weird in the picture of me .. my hair looks all puffy. Anyhoo enjoy the new pics!

I hate change
I haven't posted in forever because Blogger refused to let me log in unless I updated and created a new google account. I hate changing to new programs because there always seems to be kinks to work out. I had no choice though. I hate that they forced my hand in this one! I think it's mostly just that I hate being told what to do, especially by a computer! Haha.
I have tons of pictures but they are all stuck in Henry's camera and I can't seem to get them out. I have pictures of the kids at the lot of the new house, they've dug up a few holes for testing purposes (so JJ tells me) but that's about it .. no real progress as of yet. The pics of the kids playing in the trees are still cute though.
Kelsey got gold for the Regional wrestling championships and she got silver for the Provincials ... to tell you the truth I think she was more excited about having her name in the local newspaper! We will now be considering going to Nationals at the end of April. Kelsey will also be joining the local amateur wrestling club and they talked about setting goals like the Canada Games and whatnot in 2009 but that was just too much for my brain to take in. Watching your baby either get her head beat off the mat or watching her beat the other girls head off the mat is slightly traumatizing. Luckily (for me) she's been winning more than she's losing. It takes every ounce of willpower I have to not go get out on the mat and save her .. now of course she'd kill me and that certainly helps the willpower just a little also.
Cait is doing great. Hockey season is almost coming to a close .. ahh thank goodness. Cait's hockey runs us anywhere from 3 to 5 times a week with dry land traning, practices and games .. but she loves it. Not to mention my baby turned 10 on Sunday. She thinks she's quite grown up now that she's in the double digits and all.
Joeye is doing good as always. Talking up a storm, the girl is never quiet for more than a minute at a time. She pokes my belly and says poke poke .. she hugs and kisses what she thinks is her baby brother but every now and then when I ask her where her brother is she pulls up her own shirt so I'm not entirely sure she's getting it yet. I'm sure once he comes out she'll be trying to stuff him back in.
The baby is doing well and kicking up a storm. Trying to live up to his baby Tito name as JJ says and already training for the UFC! I will post some belly pictures soon but I think I look the exact same. I'm little lighter this time the doc tells me although everybody swears I look bigger.
Hope everyone out there is doing well.
