Finally

We found a place!!! It is only temporary while we are trying to buy a place but it will do for now.

Also my parents are home. I am so excited that they are going to be staying with us while they are here. It's crazy how much I miss them when they are gone, I guess you never really grow out of needing to have your parents around.

The little man is doing good he took his first steps the other day man is he ever growing fast. He also has three and a half teeth now. We were at a restaurant the other day and a lady in a booth across from us asked if he was about 15-16 mths old and was so shocked when I said oh he is only 9 months.

My little tank of a man. I love him.

Well this is a short post ...tons of stuff to do before we move this weekend

Still searching

Have I ever mentioned that I hate moving! If not I HATE MOVING!!! So we are still looking for somewhere to live and have only until the first of April. We are going to see a couple of more places this weekend and are hoping that they will work out. We had a couple of other options but decided that they just wouldn't work for us.

Keep your fingers crossed that something will come up soon.

Other than trying to find somewhere to live there really isn't much going on around here. Rhylee seems to be feeling better he hasn't thrown up any more blood and he seems to be back to his old self.

The little man and I went for a great walk on Tuesday with the mom's group it was a two hour hike with a 25lbs little man strapped to me, I sure felt it in my legs later that night but can't wait to go again I think next time I will take the dogs so they can get a good run.

I hope everyone has a great weekend I will keep you all posted about the house situation if anything changes in the meantime some good thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

Crappy Day

Well yesterday was supposed to be an ordinary day, boy was I wrong about that. We started the day by going to see a potential house, it wasn't bad but it wasn't for us. On the way there my car started having some issues and we almost turned around but it stopped so now I have to take it in next week to get checked out, that should be a nice amount of money .

After we decided to go to the US to pick up some grocery's and pick up a couple of packages from the PO Box. On the way back from the store I got pulled over and earned my self a nice $154.00 speeding ticket even though I wasn't speeding, confirmed by my passenger that I was NOT speeding. So now my 10 years of never having a ticket is gone and I have to fight a ticket in another country that I shouldn't have been given in the first place.

To make the day even better when we got home from shopping there were piles of puked up blood everywhere. I checked the dogs right away to see who it was coming from I was pretty sure it was Rhylee but not 100% and didn't want to take the wrong dog to the vet so let them outside to go to the bathroom and watched them from the window. After they went I went outside and checked the poop (sorry to gross you out if you have issues with poop) and it was Rhylee for sure that was having issues his poop was full of blood. So we took him to the vet right away. They ran a test for Giardia to see if he had that and then gave us some pills and sent us home.

They called when we got home and his test was negative so we are basically waiting to see if he is still bleeding and then have to go back for more tests. that was another $120.00 for the day.

All in all I spend a lot of money yesterday and got nothing but stress. Hopefully today will be a better day for everyone.

Super long catch up

I promised a new Blog friend that I would update my blog seeing as how I haven't written anything in a very long time.

First off the little big man as we call him Corbin is doing great he is growing like a weed and amazes me everyday with how much he is learning. Let's get the stats out of the way.

He is now 9 months old weighs 24 1/2 lbs and is almost 32" tall. He is in the 99th percentile for his age.

He says mum, dada, bye-bye and can wave while saying bye-bye. He tries to say dogs but it comes out as "G" and he points at everything he wants and says "uhh". He is a speedy little crawler and is working on walking, I say working because there seems to be a lot of falling

involved and I'm pretty sure if he get's any more bruises on his head the other moms might call CPS on us.

He has his two bottom teeth and the top ones are working their way in soon. He is an eating machine and will eat anything and everything you give him I seriously fear for our grocery bill when he is a teenager.

Here is a recent pic of my giant man standing on his own.

In other news we are in the process of looking for a new place to live we have to be out by the 1st of April so I'm hoping something we see this weekend will be the one and we can get packing. I hate moving and packing and then un packing I think it would be so much easier to just throw everything out and start fresh at the new house. Now if I can just find the money to do that everything would be great. I think it would be like when you put on a new pair of socks and they feel so good you never wanna take them off ...at least until they get all stretched out and loose then I want to throw them out and start new, like my furniture it seems all stretched out and loose.

My parents are coming home soon T- 6 days until they leave Arizona I think. I want them home in time to help move us... I mean ...because I miss them so much. :) Even though I am old and grown up and have my own family I will never underestimate the power of theses 3 little words ..."Daddy please help?" I honestly don't know a dad anywhere that can resist that from his little girl no matter how old she is. That has been getting me out of trouble for many, many years.

Well I should really go and clean up the dishes in the sink , then head to bed and watch a movie on netflix.

I promise I will post more often so that my few followers can keep up to date with the going on's.

August

Wow I haven't written anything here in a very long time. First I guess I will do a recap , my little man made his appearance on June 1st 2011 at 4:37pm by c-section. All this took place after 3 days of being induced and only getting to 4cm. The reason why he wasn't coming out is he weighed 11.07 lbs . He was HUGE. I had no problems with the c-section and recovery was great. My little man is growing so fast we just had his two month check up and he was 13 lbs 8oz 75th%, 24.5" long 90th% and his head is 17" 50th %

Other than that we are just enjoying our summer and relaxing with the little man.

Wow Where has March gone?

April starts on Friday. That is absolutely crazy to me. Only two months and my little man will be here. My parents came over on Saturday and helped put together all of the furniture and stuff that we have bought so far and then had a great dinner and played cards. It was so nice to have them back, You don't realize just how much you miss people until they come back. Next weekend we are going to get the crib and hopefully a glider chair for his room and it will be all ready to go. The bedding set that my parents got for him is so cute and I can't wait to see if set up in his room. It's hard to believe that he will be here in only 7 short weeks it seems like just yesterday we found out about him and before I know it he will be here. I only have to get through 35 more days of work and then I will be off for a full year and will be able to relax and just enjoy spending time with my little man.

Happy Happy Happy

My parents got back last weekend and I am soo soooo sooooooooo happy they are home. It seems like forever that they have been gone. That is the longest amount of time that I have ever gone without seeing them.

They are coming over tomorrow to help put together some of baby's furniture and have dinner and just hang out like we used to do.

For the baby side of things I am now 30 weeks and starting the final count down to his arrival. I started making a list of things to pack in my hospital bag. I still have to finish filling in all of my pre-registration forms for the hospital so that I am not trying to fill them out in the middle of him making his grand entrance.

His diapers arrived in the mail today and they are the cutest things that I have ever seen, seriously I think they are even better than what I thought based on the pictures on the website. I can't wait until he is here so that I can take a pic of him in his Fancy Pants as I call them.

I only have 38 days left of work before I will be off for a full year. It's crazy I don't think I have had a full summer off since I was 16. Should be interesting.
