I cant’ believe it!  It’s August 31 and that makes me so very happy!  Today and tomorow the roar of the C.N.E air show will be in the air and I’ll just be smirking the whole time!  The summer is almost over and I’m hoping that cooler weather is on its way!  I know I’ve [...]

I totally got inspired by my online friend Heather and I hope she doesn’t mind that I’m going to borrow her idea and use it for Jacob!  Heather started Tot School with her 2 year old Fritz and I just felt so inspired to do something similar with Jacob.  Here’s a link to Heather’s most [...]

Fall registration with Toronto Parks and Recreation is quickly approaching and once again we’ll be taking advantage of some of the toddler programs they have to offer!  It looks like this fall we’re going to try and get Jacob into Tiny Tots swimming again since he loved going to private lessons with the teacher and [...]

Have you seen my little baby floating in the bubble at the side margin of my blog this week?  The poor thing has its legs all tangled in its umbilical cord!  Makes me want to just rescure the poor little bean sprout!

My father is indeed dying.  I do not talk much about my father but when he was younger (i.e before I was thought of) he had an accident while at work on a construction site and he broke his neck leaving him with all sorts of paralysis problems that he was eventually able to overcome [...]

Well, the weather reports told us we would have thunder storms all day long and aside from a quick 5 minute rain shower we managed to have a beautiful sunny day at the C.N.E. (Canadian National Exhibition).  We always know the summer is coming to an end when the C.N.E comes to town in the [...]

Well we did it!  We managed to catch our baby’s heartbeat and record it today with our doppler!  It wasn’t as loud as we could get it yesterday and it was more difficult to find today so I think the little bean sprout was hiding somewhere!    Enjoy!

This morning we tried on some of Jacob’s new clothes to see how well they fit and it seems a lot of the shirts are big but the pants seem to be a good fit.  Jacob had lots of fun running around the house in his new shoes too!  I told him they were his [...]

A while back you might recall that Mike and I purchased a Doppler from ebay so that we could hear the baby’s heartbeat when we felt the urge throughout our pregnancy.  In our pregnancy with Jacob we rented one for a couple of months and the cost of that rental was MORE expensive then purchasing [...]
