Pretty Vancouver sunset from Lions Gate Bridge.

Okay, it’s been a long time since I’ve posted anything on here. Life has changed a lot, things get busy. I’m a little sad I did not document a lot of things that have happened, but there’s no reason I can’t start it up again, right? I am in the process of making another baby (26 weeks along) and I will be off for a year, so I’m hoping to have more time to devote to my interests. Stay tuned and I will have a lengthy update to cover the 2 year hiatus so I can start anew. I haven’t decided how I will change my layout yet, but for now I’ll start with some new posts.

Rest in peace my kitty friend. I’m sad you had to go. We had no idea how much you were hurting. You hid it very well. I’m so sorry. You will be missed.

Stella keeping her hands warm in Whistler.

My life is an insane whirlwind. We took some time out to go to Whistler as a family for the weekend. It was very enjoyable and relaxing. Stella was on her best behaviour and I think she really appreciated the new experience.

Stella sporting my old shades.

So I’ve been MIA lately (sorry). This summer is going to be insanely busy. I have 3 weddings, (and for one of them I will be a brides matron) and 3 babies being born (2 down, 1 to go), so every weekend is jam packed with fun stuff… and not to mention all the birthdays and our trip to Edmonton that is fast approaching. I’m barely hanging on here with everything that needs to be done!

Stella is learning how to draw.

Stella is 15 months old now and has taken an interest in drawing. This is quite wonderful for me because it can hold her interest long enough for me to do the things that need to be done, like cooking dinner and doing the dishes. She is doing very well and her Daddy has taught her how to hold the pencil properly so she can have more control. She also likes when you draw with her and she can guess what it is you are drawing. Her favourite things to see drawn are owls, kitties, teddies, spoons, guys, and flowers because she can say these words and likes to blurt them out when she recognizes what you are drawing.

Okay, I’ve been awfully quiet these days! I’ve been hanging out on a little website called facebook. If you’ve used friendster at all it’s a similar idea, but way cooler and less ads. Basically, you can search for anyone you’ve known in your entire lifetime and you could quite possibly find them. I’m shocked at some of the people I’ve found, and who’ve found me for that matter! So check it out and make sure to add me to your list!

Stella loves the ducks!

Today we decided to take Stella to visit Maplewood Farm in North Vancouver. It wasn’t raining like we thought it would be, so we took the opportunity to go out and get some fresh air. Stella had quite the adventure!

The Sweater Family!

To start things off Clint and I hosted a holiday sweater party. Everyone had to wear a cheesy sweater and the person voted best sweater won a huge bottle of wine. It was a great time and I think everyone had fun, even Stella! It was nice to see our friends before we all went off to spend the holiday’s with our families.

Santa’s little helper!

I hope everyone is enjoying their time off! We stuffed ourselves with turkey at both the grandparents’ houses. My parents on Christmas Eve and Clint’s parents Christmas day. Thanks guys, it was very yummy! We were all spoiled rotten by Santa. I’ll do a separate post regarding Stella’s new toys and clothes. She’s very excited to have received 3 piano’s!! hee hee… I’m back to work tomorrow so I have to get to bed.

I just wanted to say MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

The first snowfall of the season.

We’ve had some crazy weather lately. A recent storm caused our drinking water to become “turbid”, so we are currently on a boil water order until it clears. It’s been about a week now and it’s a real pain having to haul bottled water back to our house. On top of that we got a major dump of snow! It’s the first time Stella has ever seen it, so I decided to take her out to see her reaction.
