More Jer and Dad.

Daddy and Jeremy

Wrestling with the boy!

Oh Gandhi, you dog you.

Oddly enough Regina's City Hall has a statue of Confucius on one side of the entrance and a bust of Mahatma Gandhi on the other. Apparently Confucius isn't much of a riders fan, but Gandhi seems to have had a pretty good weekend after the riders win. On Monday morning he had not only a Hawaiian lei, but I think he was still hung over.

The Day After......

This is my house. This is the day after the move. Need I say more?

The move actually went far better then I could have ever hoped for! We had tons of men to help, freeing me up to take care of my son, and "try" to give directions, which after a while was actually quite useless...I didn't have time to label anything, and so I just stuck things where I thought they should go....Let's just say...Jeremy's got more stuff then anyone else in the house....so I am pretty sure that most of it isn't his...but I will have to wait till it is all cleaned up to figure out who's stuff is in there...LOL!

We also had tons of help to clean the house we moved out of which meant that we were able to get them both done the same day instead of having to do all the cleaning the day after. Today I will have to go over and clean out the freezer, and clean up the laundry room. Kendal will have to install another lock...and Monday I will have to go let the carpet cleaners in, but other then that...we are done with the old house. Then it is just the unpacking here....

I am not going to church today....First of all, I can't find any clean clothes for either Jeremy or myself...nor any silver wear...or his diaper bag...you get the idea....I have however managed to make the living room fairly livable....

The move itself was a little hard on Jeremy....I brought him over here the other day, and turned on his lullaby CD hoping to help him adjust to the idea of a new house? and the poor little guy looked at the CD player, the bottom lip went out and he burst into tears! Who knows what he was thinking....He was very sad when we moved our stuff out of the other house, and he looked very confused at seeing our stuff in this house, however, by last night...he actually giggled when we put him into his car seat and left the old house...and that is something...he hates his car seat...When we got here and he saw our couches and his piano...he smiled and then he played quite happily for about an hour and was in a better mood then I have seen him in for days...so maybe he has figured out what is going on.....

Now back to unpacking.....

Pre -Moving Day!

Today is pre-moving day....which means that anything I didn't get done the rest of the week, will have to be done today....I have to clean the oven (yuck), the fridge (double yuck) and pack up all the little odds and ends which I was unable to pack yesterday for one reason or another...including Jeremy's room. (We left it up till last so I would be able to let at least one member of the family sleep in relative comfort-and after all his comfort does mean my comfort...) I will be making some trips to the house with things that are either very breakable, or need to be found right away...I do have Bree's help, so that will be good...she took this week off while she was in between schools...
Worst of all...I will be losing my internet (not that!) and my tv...any second as a matter of fact...
so my house will be VERY quiet today....not that it matters, as I am sure that I won't be able to have time to surf the web anyways......so I leave you with this video....I hope it gives you a good laugh!

This is my life.....

OMG! JEREMY STOOD UP! ...and other daily trivea!

Jeremy is 8.5 months old. He doesn't crawl....has just started to pull himself around...Can't pull himself into a sitting position.....BUT apparently....little Jeremy CAN stand up....It actually has happened 4 times now in the last week...I looked away for a minute, and when I turned back to him, the little monkey had pulled himself up on his chair! - So much for developmentally slow...We'll show them pediatricians won't we Jeremy!

The other thing he did this week which turned my head was kind of funny...He is starting to parrot words and sounds.....so I am in the kitchen this week, and he is in the living room playing with his piano, which makes animal noises....and I hear a quacking sound....Jeremy was trying to quack like the duck on his piano! LOL! The other piano says the colors when you press the keys, and on two different occasions he mimicked the word. He said blue to Kendal and the next day red to Bree.....

OK. enough bragging about my son for today..

The next three days are going to be a little on the rough side....I didn't get enough of the kitchen packed yesterday, so I am going to have to finish that today, and get the oven cleaned....wash the cupboards...that kind of fun stuff....I am also going to have to go down town and do move related business...Tomorrow I have to pack up Jeremy's room (which means sleeping with him for the night...not fun when your nursing because the little guy thinks it is a free for all......) and we actually take posession of the house, so I will have to be there for ADT to hook up our alarm, move some breakables, and go for a physical?? Now WHY did I book that for such a busy week? and of course Sat. is actually moving day....enough said....

Moosejaws Tea Room....and other less classy subjects....

After we took Jer to the park, Kendal and I went on a tour of that restauraunt I posted about earlier...but what I failed to mention, is that neither one of us woke up feeling very well that morning. We were determined to stay and take advantage of our rare days off...but uh...Kendal didn't quite make it....We were driving down main street, when I saw a wasp in the back seat next to Jeremy. Needless to say, I very quickly pulled over to the nearest sidewalk and dragged out Jeremy's car seat onto the sidewalk. Kendal killed the offending wasp, and then I put Jeremy back in the car. I turned around to talk to Kendal and he was gone! A few minutes later he came back looking really sheepish...He was sick all over the wheels of some guys REALLY exspensive nice truck....LOL! um...OOPS!

Later when he was feeling better we went to a Tea Room-The Cranberry Rose- which had been recommended by several people we know. It was pretty nice. There was a boutique upstairs, and the gift shop and tea room were below. We didn't look around the yard much, but it did look pretty nice. Jeremy liked it, but I am not completly sure it was a "kid" friendly place...That being said, I would like to bring my daughter Brandy there sometime. I think she would enjoy the experience.

After the tea room, we went and hung out at a mall for a while and then went back to Regina...Good thing. We both ended up really sick for the rest of the night.....What were we thinking of trying to take a break? Sheesh...
