Dear future me.

Hey,

As usual I have been slacking in my blog posting duties. Get used to it.
Just popped in to write a note to future me. Want to be able to remember some of the things going on around here.

NoNo is a constant cause for concern and the person who brings the biggest smile to my face. Her personality is soo strong that sometimes I wonder if SuperBoy and SweetGirl get lost in the mix.
- NoNo and SweetGirl were baptised on November 25 2012. The baptism took place at St Lawrence Catholic Church.

That portion above was written back in December of last year and sadly it sat in the drafts. Figured I would add to it, and finally get around to posting it.

Today's date: March 6, 2013

- I know longer worry about SweetGirl getting lost in the mix. She is most certainly NOT a pushover. She's now crawling and cruising, has been for at least a month now. She has two teeth, the front bottom ones, the first of which I noticed on My birthday this year.
Her favorite thing to do lately is climbing the stairs, over and over and over...

SuperBoy is getting his green belt this month! He's really loving and doing well at karate. He can be a bit scattered and chatty at home (and school!), but once he gets into the dojo he is all business. It's not just that he is taking it seriously, he is good! He moves his body with purpose and is picking up the moves. He started a clumsy, gangly boy and now he is strong, more confident and in control of his body. So proud.
He got an award at school this past week for taking initiative!!

NoNo is still a handful, and still cracking me up. These days it's all about being a princess, her best friends (pretty much everyone she meets) , her birthday party (she's been planning this for months. Currently she wants a pink pool party! For all her best friends.) and her clothes (she has 2 favorite "heart" shirts that she wants to wear every singe day! we actually had to put a lock on her closet because she was doing multiple wardrobe changes and making a mess all the time.


Those are my babies. Love them.

Hurting.

Hello World.

...I worked out tonight. Yeah me! I didn't want to, but I sucked it up anyway.  I needed a break from the kids and the house. Yesterday I was on a mission to finally finish cleaning out Sweet Girls closet  and we spent all day at home and then today it rained all day and forced us to stay in again, so I was desperate enough for outside air that I worked out. Going to regret it tomorrow, but for now I am enjoying a guilt free sugar cone with Roasted Almond S'more icecream! Yum. That is all, goodnight.

I'm Back.

It has been way too long since I have posted. I wont even spend time going over all the excuses I have for not having been here in so long, just going to dive right in...

I am no longer a mom of only two, Sweet Girl joined us on June 1st of this year. She is as her (Internet) name implies an angel baby. Honestly I would have 10 of her. Today she rolled over from her tummy  to her back!! Woohoo! This is definitely a memorable event for all moms, but extra special for me, because I have been concerned that I may have to walk Sweet Girl down the aisle. Literally walk her down the aisle, when she's 30! You see, she seemed to be a bit behind her older siblings in terms of moving around (both were early crawlers and walked by 9months).  I attributed some of this to her easy going nature, but mostly I know it is because she pretty much lives in her carrier, attached to my chest. While I am a baby wearing, attachment parenting kinda gyal, I am certainly not a die hard and I can actually get my tasks done more efficiently if she is not attached to me. So why do I keep her attached you ask? Why am I stunting SG's development? Well its because we live with a toddler terrorist who is prone to sneak attacks on poor innocent SG. I am merely doing what any mother would to ensure thier kids survival. Anyhow, long story short I am soo proud of SG today, despite the roadblocks she actually achieved this milestone! Perhaps she'll walk herself down the aisle afterall...

Ok my house is a mess and the kids are all screaming. I am going to go and deal with it and them.
More later. I hope.
