I must be the worst blogger in the world, I honestly forgot this poor neglected space even existed for a few weeks until I got a few requests for an update! So instead of a random blog about something random I figure I will just let everyone know what has been keeping me so busy that I cant update every day like some lol.
PACKING PACKING PACKING! yes we are moving AGAIN. We seem to move every year we just cant find a place that suits us (usually we cant stand the neighbours) ! when we moved into this apartment we knew it wouldnt be for long it was just somewhere to be untill we found what we were looking for here in Orillia.
We finally found a house, it is aproximatly a 10 minute drive outside Orillia towards Barrie. we are surrounded be fields NO NEIGHBOURS!! , and can see bass lake from our yard. we have a half acre, I am sooo excited for Emma to have her own yard to play in! we intend to make it as fun filled as possible, with a fire pit for us of course.
The thing I have always said that I want when we get a house is a GARAGE, not just a garage but one that we can get to from the house... the whole cleaning off the snow in the winter, packing the kids in carrying loads and loads of groceries through the snow, none of this was ever my idea of fun, yes we have a garage! I know that we will most likely loose Steve to the garage most days, but thats ok, hes out of my way lol... ! I cant wait. the house also has lots of storage, and a basement, The only downside... only two bedrooms! but hey ya cant have everything! I will give more details and pictures in a later post. we move in 5 days EEEEEEE!!
I have also been PACKING PACKING PACKING at my mothers house, she is down sizing from a 3 bedroom to a 2 bedroom, although she is only moving down the hall in her apartment building she is a pack rat, so I have been trying to organize and get rid of the boxes upon boxes of things she no longer needs or uses.
I have been trying to be more frugal, I have only worked 4 months in the past 3 years, with the insane cost of daycare for 2 kids I look at it as my way to contribute to our income, everything I save feels like I am making money for my family. I put alot of time into it, usually 2 hours every morning is spent hunting for deals and sending emails etc.
We still have a wedding to plan =/ we had a budget for our wedding but thanks to my new frugal/enviro friendly attitude I have cut the budget by ALOT ... this of course means I have alot more to do myself, which is fine with me... I like the fact that every little part of our wedding has our imprint, it may not be what other people like, but its unique and its us.
I have two kids! hey that takes up enough time right there lol... with everything going on I still try to make time to sit down every day and do a project with Emma. Hailey sits with us in her bumbo, we sing songs, paint, make recycled bags, make puppets, pretty much whatever we feel like doing that day =) that plus the usual cooking, laundry, cleaning etc I have had my hands full
Emma is growing up way to fast like usual, somedays I feel like I have a 15 year old in the house with the attitude she has, but most days she is still my little angel the only problem we have had is potty training, She goes on the potty most of the time at home but as soon as we go ANYWHERE else there is no hope =/
Hailey is getting SO BIG, I say she looks like a fat Steve lol, she is so bright and coos non stop. She has rolled over from her back to her belly a few times and loves to jump in her jumparoo. She has become such a happy baby, she pretty much only gets mad when shes hungry. That kid likes to eat!
As I write this Emma is singing Skinamerink a dink a dink Skinamerinky DOOOO while Hailey is jumping in her jumparoo laughing at Emma's silly dance. I love this age when they both love each other, I realize that soon enough it will be an all out war over everything between them, So I am cherishing this.
So there is our update, bad spelling/puntuation and all lol.
