Climbing wall time!

 



 

Wasn't as easy as he thought it would be!! LOL

 



 

Meme FINALLY decided to go and see the beaver!!  It took a while but she did it!!

 



 

 

Meme made Mommy sit with her on Santa's lap

 



 

But she opened her present all by herself!!! LOL

 



 

She LOVES this present!! Santa did an excellent job!!

 



 

Waiting for Ba's turn to see Santa!

 



 

Tornado/Ba FINALLY got called up for his turn to see Santa!!!

 



 

Could not wait to open his present!!

But Mom played a trick on him and told him he had to wait till Christmas!!  I wish my camera was ready for a picture because his face was PRICELESS!!!

 

Overall the party was ok.  Not much for Meme to do there and well I didn't know anyone either.  There were 3 other parties going on too so it was SUPER CROWDED!!!  But Tornado had a BLAST so that made it worth while for me!!

Meme's 2.5 Month Photos

I must apologize for the lines in the photos...

apparently my scanner is a piece of crap now.

But if you can look past the lines...

I guarantee you will LOVE the photos!!

Teaching her young!!

hmmm...

Peek-A-Boo

They would not look the same way!! So I had to settle for different directions!!

Now you have seen the photos I have a story to share:

How much did I pay for these photos?!?!

Hubby says WAY WAY WAY too much!! He bought me a camera for a reason and thinks I no longer need to pay for photos.

I say I still need these photos because I can not set up the props like this or get such great photos like these!! I use my camera ALL the time and have gotten some REALLY good ones BUT nothing like these.

I did not spend over $100 before taxes. I got 8 - 5x7 photos and 4 wallets. I think that was an OK deal. For Tornado's preschool photos I paid $22.00 for 2 - 5x7 and you CAN NOT get more than 1 pose unless you want to pay another $22.00 for a second sheet.

I dunno maybe I am blinded by photos and that is why I do not think I got ripped off. Do I think that was expensive? YES!! BUT I LOVE the poses!!

Priceless Memories I want to keep!!

And these photos are so GREAT I did not want to pass them up.

The Things Kids Say/Do!!

Are There Any Buddha's In Our House?!?!

According to my 4.5 year old there sure is!!!

Grandpa D. is upstairs having a visit and we are talking about how tubby Meme is.

Grandpa D. says 'Too bad we don't have a Buddha in our house to compare her too.'

Tornado responds 'We do Grandpa!! My Daddy, You and Meme are Buddhas!!!'

OH I laughed so hard!!

Friday Night Leftovers!!

WOW!! I have missed FNL the past few weeks and not because of lack of things to say!! I have LOTS to say just not LOTS of time!!

~First things first...this week has been a very trying week with my 4, almost 5 year old son!! He got in trouble at school. SERIOUS TROUBLE TOO!! Than he has seemed to misplace his listening ears too. Does anyone know where I can purchase listening ears?!?! If so please do share.

~I went and made a HUGE mistake well paying bills last month. I decided it would be a good idea to pay my OLD cell bill instead of the family plan. The plan is under hubby's name so now he is NOT impressed because he gets the late payment hit not me. We only found out I did this now when the new bill comes in and is 335.00 bucks!! Ooops.

~On the cell bill note: Rogers is STUPID!! They REFUSE to transfer the payment from my old account to the new account!! WHY?!?! They would receive the payment WAY faster...but NOOOO I had to contact the bank and get them to request payment back...than the bank will give me the money back...than Rogers will get their money. Makes NO sense to me at all!!!

~We had a few nice days and now the cold wet snowy weather has returned. DEPRESSING!! I just want spring to come!! Maybe Tornado does too and this is why he is acting up...

~We got a new BBQ and WOW rotisserie roast on it is AMAZING!!! YUMMY!! BUT I had a huge disappointment Monday when I went to get it all ready to find out that you can not use it when windy. Umm Monday it was 50km/hr winds with wind gusts up to 60km/hr. I was so sad Monday night BUT Tuesday when I bite into the roast took all the disappointment away!!

~I was able to help my Dad out and donate our old BBQ to him. He LOVES it!! How I love making people happy...if I could afford it I would have bought him a new one too...but I'm not rich. LOL

~Today I take my baby girl for her 2 month needles...so not looking forward to this. Wish me luck!! :(

~Tornado has started swimming lessons...oh how he loves them!! I just love watching him and seeing the excitement/joy on his face!! :)

~I have a bottle waiting on the coffee table for Meme...but I must go to the washroom before I begin her morning feed. Tornado yells 'Mom Meme is VERY hungry!' I reply 'Yes hun I know but I just had to go to the washroom first.' I walk into the living room and there is my son feeding his sister!! It was so very cute!! I wish I could have gotten a picture!!
