Family of 5

We had Dman home for the weekend what a big change for him he has the joys of both city living and country living . So when he was home he was able to use a birthday present we had not much of a chance to use until now. So just a quick little walk out back he did some target shooting .
and what ones does and other MUST do too .
,so walking back from shooting Dayton says I think your garden is bigger then my whole back yard in Calgary . Another added little perk almost unlimited space and the good ole country air .
Another thing we did while we had our little man home was going skating I must admit that skating is not really my thing but so glad the rest of my family can enjoy it together . The next day Dman mentioned his legs were sore !



I have really enjoyed our family of five time with family and friends all able to SHARE !


and at the end of every time Dman leaves I try to make sure to take one last picture until next time and as I called the kids up to take a spot on the bed  our 4th kid was already there . These pictures are never meant to be perfect or coordinated but just really to capture the moment of time together .So until next time DMAN  we love you and  miss you every day and already planning our next little adventures because life really is not about the things we give our children but the moments we give them as they stay with them longer  .

My silly monkey




well J took Addy on a road trip today to pick up Dman ,so I was left with our silly little monkey .So I tried to get a few shots of her today . This is what I got . From one extreme to the next .
Needless to say today was not a good day for pictures. TEETH were kinda making us miserable . But it was nice to spend a day with my babe and hopefully those DAMN teeth come out . UGH.

Snow Day

its a snow day here and we are breaking all breaking all typical midday rules leaving the dishes in the sink and laundry piled high made big bowl of popcorn and cuddled on the couch for movie time with the girls. The big old pile on each other with body parts hanging all over each other and can feel every one's
heart beating on you and ever breath blowing on you kinda cuddling going on .Our movie of choice was Toy Story 3what I think was one of the best kids movies out there this year  .It melted my heart when we seen at the theatre . I must mention that this summer when we took our kids to see it we went with friends of ours . During what Addy would say was the scary part she was holding her friends hand so cute but dad was not sure of holding boys hands this early and it begins ....

My 2 cents

SO I have been a more frequent user of my own BLOG . YAY!!! I guess that means I have been adjusting to my so called  farm life which I indeed am loving !!!I have been finding it great to keep this all up to date and current and realizing I don't need a picture with every post but it does indeed make it more interesting . SO sometimes I like to have a good rant about things from time to time  so why not on my blog were no one can back talk to me .LOL . Back talking is something new that is happening in our house with my 2 almost 3 year old but she says she 6 . AND ways here's my 2 cents for this week . While reading this please keep in mind this is coming from a NON cell phone user . YES its true there are people out there that don't have cell phones are maybe just me . My poor kids whats the chance they will ever get one if there mother doesn't have one . I must make a point of saying I had tried having a cell phone on two different occasion but it wasn't for me.
The joys of not having a cell phone
1. when you leave the house you leave and no one can find you .Yes ladies its really wonderful (unless you    tell them where you are going and your friend has a cell phone ).
2. you walk around the world with your face forward looking at people and all the places you are going . Not down at your cell phone because you are missing the latest face book status
3. It one less think to forget on the way out of the house
4. Its nice to leave gossip at coffee time and not let it follow you around everywhere you go too
5.  It is really nice to actually talk to a a real human being with a heart every once in while too .
6. Its really nice to sleep all night long without a text message , email to disrupt my night of sleep( could someone tell my husband you don not need to go to bed with your cell phone )
Now to all the people who have a cell phone this is what the real world looks like . There are so many of you that are in my life that is this person . Not picking no anyone particular but you all as I look at all of you as I feel a outsider which I am totally fine with . This is what it looks like . You all only have one hand available as the other one is holding a cell phone . You all walk around with your heads hanging down typing , reading a text message , tweet ,face book status ,game, and whatever else you can do on it  I am sure you can live with out it at that very moment . And if you aren't looking at it you are talking on it which even makes you look worse with your head cocked to the side chatting.What do they say about men that masturbate with the same hand all the time it starts to hang in that direction . HEY no one said this was going to be a family friendly program . It is very rude to be sitting in a meeting , function , out for supper ,play date , coffee or any sort of social setting with people jumping at a beep to check what so and so is doing right now or to text someone else while you are suppose to be enjoying my company or conversation . Also think about this everything I just said and think you are also leaving that impression on your child . They need your attention too. And if you were actually having a conversation with a real human being would you not think its rude if someone interrupted you . THINK about the next time your cell phone beeps , sings or dances . Can they dance yet ??They can do everything else.
So my challenge to all my blog friends that have a cell phone its actually a DARE . Only use your cell phone for  emergency and I know someone is going to Say well I need it for work . Well you don't work 24/7 365 do you . So  turn it off after 6:00pm and don't use it on weekends .
So I am going to leave you with this UNTIL my next 2 cents.
Once upon a time there was no cell phones .........

I love

online shopping . I do not even have to leave my home to order almost anything nowadays . I have finally ordered my bedding which has been so deserved as we have been using Jeremy's old bedding form when he was with his EX . YUCK !!! I know . But I had to find exactly what I wanted so I am pretty sure this is it .
SO after searching many online outlets I finally decided on this one and out of 25 reviews it has 5 stars so that was good by me. I really am all about reviews but I read them for what they are worth too as many people just like to blame complain about everything !!
they ship to Canada too .
I also bought my girls winter jackets today as well .American Eagle has a kids line and you can find it here www.ae.com//77kids
 that also ships to Canada !
