Cali's Third Birthday

I am currently visiting my parents and have access to the pictures from Cali's third birthday which we celebrated at Heritage Park with Thomas.  So here are a few photos from that day.

Here is Cali and her friend after their ride on Thomas.

Lexi had her first taste of chocolate that day!

Little Dancing Cali

I have always been a big fan of dance movies and lately Cali has been watching them with me. Center Stage is by far my favourite movie and when I found out there was a sequel let me tell you I was stoked.

So here is a glimpse of what Cali has been exposed to over the past week:





Here is a glimpse of what Cali has been doing over the past week:

Baby on the Move

Lexi is officially crawling now.  Cali seemed to skip that step, she crawled with one leg straight for about three weeks and then started to walk.  If I had a fully functioning computer I would post a video of it; it was quite funny to watch.

But our Lexi is a crawling baby, up on all fours making her way around and around the island in the kitchen with her big sister chasing after her saying "No, Lexi!  Don't!" as she gets into everything.

It just gets better from here doesn't it?

I got video of Lexi crawling uploaded! Take a look!

The Computer is Dead... Really Dead This Time

We thought that my computer somewhat bounced back a couple of weeks ago but now it is gone.  It won't even turn on anymore.  I am currently using Ed's, so who knows when I will be able to update now.  I will attempt on the old man mac... but I don't know...

My Wonderful Husband

I have had a cold for the past two weeks.  Right when I started feeling it coming I started taking Cold FX.  I thought it was great.  I could feel my cold still but it seemed a lot less intense.  Then my cold really hit on the weekend.  So I don't know whether or not I am a fan of the stuff.

Anyway since I had been sick I have been letting things slide around the house.  I was thinking that getting my rest was more important.  So Ed has been picking up the slack lately.  He has stayed up with the girls, cleaned the house, managed to fulfill his calling, and make it to work.  So yes I think that he deserves a shout out.

I don't know what time he got to bed last night, but this morning I found him asleep on the couch.  (I guess he didn't want to disturb my drug induced slumber.)  The kitchen and living room were sparkling and I saw an empty bottle on the floor, evidence that he took care of as least one Lexi feed last night.

Ed you are the best.  I know I don't tell you that near enough.

I am feeling much better today.  

Aww, Snap!

This message has been recurring on my screen as I attempt to update my blog.  If anyone else uses Google Chrome you may be familiar with it.  Let me tell you I see it about 5 times plus a day.  It gets quite annoying as my computer crashes shortly after and I have start from sratch.

My brother tells me that it's Windows and I need to put linux on my computer.  However I can't because my CD drive is no longer recognized by my computer and I can't find a usb drive big enough in the house.  Grrrr!

So why aren't I using the Mac?  Well Ed got it from the school and it's so old that it can't use flash.  So I can't update my blog on it.  I am hoping someday to own a new Mac that I could use.

So here I am using this Toshiba laptop circa 2004 that is slowly dying.  Cali told me today that she heard the computer say "I'm dying, I'm dying".  I completely believe her.  Oh if only money grew on trees then I would have  a nice new computer that I could load pictures on so I could really update my blog.

So anyway here's the update.  It turns out that the overflow in the bathroom sink that Cali used to flood house was plugged.  The rubber ring had slipped down and completely blocked it off.  So now I feel better knowing that I hadn't left Cali alone for so long with running water.  I didn't think that it was that long.

The other good news is that we were able to dry out the basement enough that we won't have to any major repairs, just touch up a few places with paint.  Yes I was quite happy about that.

So whenever I get a computer that works I will put up some pictures of Cali's birthday.
