Whew...Glad that is over! :)

I didnt take many pics..but, I will upload and post what I have soon!!
The kids were VERY spoiled, but, it was fun! These pics are only cell phone pics.. :P they suck a little. The first pic--is the kids playing with SOME of their new toys :) the second..is a pic Eve & Ethans grandparents had taken of them with their puppy. Eves eyes were closed..lol so Ethans eyes were photoshopped on her ;) The bed...is my new bedding!! :) Then, its Eve playing with toys!! she loved it! the last picture, is Damian, his parents, and grandparents, and Ryder also!

~I'm extremely bored..so heres whats going on with us! <3 ~

Christmas-I dislike it, well, not really CHRISTMAS that I dislike, its the expectations that everyone has. Everyone wants to see the kids, and just expects it all to fit right in our schedule..meanwhile, I am the one who has been there for them-not their father who didnt come around for a while, and then suddenly showed back up and expects everything to change around HIS schedule. So, I decided NO-He can have them later on at night, I am NOT cramming my day up more to satisfy him. :)

Our plans are INSANE-
Eve & Ethan go to their Grandparents from the 19th-22nd
then we go to Damians on the 23rd-25th, we're leaving there around 9am, to make it in time for dinner with my family..so we have to drive 2 hours Christmas Morning..yay us! Or not.
The kids are then sleeping over at their Dads, for the first time in 2years. I am kinda worried, but, they will be okay. They come home on the 26th.
On the 27th, we have a Christmas Dinner with my Aunt, cousins and Grandma in Hamilton at my Aunts house. :)
Then, on the 29th, We get to go see my Grandpa for his Birthday, no idea how old he is going to be, but....hes getting up there ;) K, I just did the math lol hes turning 71!

Decorated my Grandma's Grave a bit. :)

This was much easier than last time that we went...Eve didnt have anything to say really, cause she seen a pretty headstone a few down from where my Grandma is. She still doesnt have her stone..they reccommend waiting a year for the ground to settle. :(

Went to Niagara Falls to see the Christmas Lights :)

They were really awesome, Unfortunately, the boys both SLEPT through it! ugh..lol Here's some pics. At least the boys got to see pictures I guess!
Eve and I walked around taking pics, while Damian sat in the truck with the boys :)

Ryder got a Haircut!!

I'm pretty sure this is one of the cutest kids out there ;)
He looks soooo much OLDER!
I still cant believe hes 17 months old!

School Pictures are HOME!

I am sooo excited, I've been waiting for them for a while :)
I think my daughter is pretty cute!!

Tonight my mom came over for a while before Bingo..lol and her and I took the kids for a walk..and for KFC-fun times! lol Next time, we are bringing a stroller, Ryder's kinda heavy!

Fall Pics! :)

I decided to be Frugal..heheh,
Damian and I took the kids out to the pier here, and I took pics of the kids myself :) I was impressed. Sent them to walmart to be printed already, and they turned out wonderfully! <3

Firecracker Blinkie

Heres a blinkie from Ryders Playgroup on IVillage :)
Watch for him!

Also,
My going upnorth update..lol

While upnorth for Thanksgiving, I was a whiner...I didnt have fun, and I let it be known.
Honestly, most of it was because of all the stuff my Aunt had changed from how my Grandma used to do things, it was upsetting to me..

Also, I had my period at the time, and wanted to be HOME. I was expected to pee in a pail overnight if I had to go..ummmm no :)

Anyways, on a more positive note, I bought a fishing pole, tried fishing, lol first time in a LONG time.
My sister broke her wrist in a quadding accident..silly girl. :)

The latest on Scout..

Scout has a new home now, which I am SURE is a great one, if you had seen how excited his new owner was to get him, you'd sooo agree! I hope hes good there and has an excellent life-Best of Luck to them!

Eve and I went to the Cemetary to visit my Grandma

Her and I have been planning on going to the cemetary for her to leave flowers for my Grandma, because I sent to her Scotts parents after my grandma died thinking she was too young, wouldnt understand etc-which I really really regret.

So, finally yesterday I went and picked out some flowers at the dollarstore, purple, cause that was my Grandmas favorite colour,

After she stuck the flowers in the ground, she blew a kiss and said "I really really miss you Nana"

of course, I started crying..why did i think it would be so easy to put the flowers in the ground and leave??
I wasnt prepared for her to say anything really... it was so difficult.



Next weekend is Thanksgiving here in Canada, we're going up to my grandparents huge property/cottages upnorth, that is where my Grandma spent her last day..thats where she died. Thanksgiving was important to her that we were all together, and we always spent it upnorth..this is going to be a rough thanksgiving... I miss her alot, I just try not to show it.

Wow..its been a while again :(

I suck at blogging...
Anyways, I went back to working at Bicks, just seasonally, still working tho. :)
Its my time of peace, no children fighting, or asking for snacks, drinks etc.
Its also great social time as well! Makes me feel better about myself to be working, even tho after paying a babysitter-I wont come ahead really. Which sucks.

I move next week! :) pretty exciting, its another 3 bedroom place, this time its got a garage, which will be Damians man room, will have a fridge, couch, beer, possibly a tv? we havent discussed it much yet! I intend on hanging out in the man room too..lol

Eve is back in school, she loves it, but still has problems behaving...she throws fits and wont sit during circle time..ugh, its frustrating. Ryder walks now.... :) he has been for a while, and hes up to 15 teeth..friggen crazyness.
Ethan is Ethan..haha He STILL isnt completely toilet trained, its making me insane.Hes talking alot, cant make him stop sometimes..
Thats all for now really..We go upnorth for Thanksgiving in a week :) *yay* Altho, this is the first time without my Grandma..she died on April 28th, 2009. It will never be the same without her.. not as much to be thankful for this year, Last year, I was thankful for all the family that was there..this year, we wont all be.. :( Tiff, Justin and Austin are coming along this year, and Damian is too <3

~Easter Egg Hunt~

we went to an Easter Egg hunt at the church, they had 30,000 Eggs! :) and I think I heard 450 kids?? Crazyness!

Ack..

Heres a pic of Scout in his awesome sweater..hes a cool looking dog! hehe

Can you believe next weekend is March break ALREADY?? :)
I kinda like it...means I dont have to wake up to bring them to school...lol

Guess I never updated on the court stuff..
I now have SOLE Custody, and Scott has access, every other Saturday, from 10am to 5pm,
Will be nice having time to myself sometimes :)

My grandma had a stroke on Sunday, March 1st, so far, shes not walking, and her speech is worse, its affected her good side, I will update as she improves, shes having physio now to try to get her limbs moving better.

~Some new pics..and, whatever~

Been a while again, I feel like I say that everytime?? :P

I dont remember to come and post things here..
Poor Ryder is sick, with pneumonia, its sad to see a baby sick, hes on 2 puffers, and an antibiotic or something..hehe he has an ear infection as well..
Hes slowly getting better tho! :) Such a tough little boy!
Eve and Ethan are away this weekend, just left now, and they dont come home till Sunday!
They've also started their "visits" with their dad, from 10-5 every other Saturday, he showed up the first time..we'll see if he keeps it up! :)

Oops! :)

SO..umm once again I lied :) I didnt ever post pics of decorations that they made..cause instead, we made Christmas cards. Also, I never posted pics of them yet..cause I didnt upload any yet! hahaha
Sorry!! :) They are on the wrong camera!
We got a new puppy! His name is Scout, hes pretty awesomely cute!
Christmas and New Years are BOTH overwith, I am glad. Holidays are overrated. Seriously...

I will add some pics, However, I didnt really take many Christmas ones..and the ones I did take..you guessed it..someone elses camera :P

Children make my mind mush-I dont think to get the camera out! :)
