That's Strange

For some odd reason my blog isn't showing up. That sucks! Well let's see. In the past week: On friday morning Kris, Cameron and I went up to Kamloops because K had to work and his dad was going to be coming down there too. The whole family had dinner together and K's grandma's house on Saturday night. It was really nice seeing everyone. We probably won't be seeing them at Christmas so it was nice that it happened at least once this year. C had fun playing with his cousin Nigel (he's one). On tuesday night I went swimming with my sister, and got a nice workout. We're going to swim twice a week now (as long as our hubby's get home from work on time). Cameron counted to ten today! - he's known how to say all his numbers up to ten, but would never count them in a row. He counted the stairs as he was walking down them! Once he got to ten he started over again at one! Well not much else to say. R and S are coming over tonight, we've been going through withdrawl, we didn't see them last week.

On our own

Well Cameron and I are on our own for a couple days. Kris went up to Kamloops, today because he has to work up there for a couple days. Cameron is getting over his cold, but now I have it! You gotta love it when your kids always give you their colds! Well I broke down and took some cold medicine. I usually don't because sometimes it makes me drowsy but I'll risk it today. Finally I get to use the car for a couple of days and I'm sick and I don't want to! Funny how things work out. Ever since the weather got colder I've been getting in the mood for christmas, and it's still 3 months away! Yes, I'm a little odd that way. I need to think about Halloween, because we're taking Cameron out this year. Kris and I will of course end up eating all the candy! Well I'm starting to get drowsy now so I should go.

Another Wonderful Weekend.....well not really

Well lets see... Kris had to work on saturday so that really sucked. The only highlight of my entire weekend was that R & S came down on saturday. They cooked dinner for me and Cameron and Kris ( he finally arrived home at 11:00pm). We played starwars monopoly in which R kicked our butts both times! So Sunday started with Cameron having a runny nose and then it got worse. So I had a child stuck to me for the entire day, because he wouldn't scream if he was sitting on me. Suprizingly enough he slept through the night only breify waking up at 1:00am when I heard him talking to himself or trying to read his books in the dark (he likes to sleep with his book at the end of his bed, so he can look at them anytime he wants), then he didn't get up until shortly after 7:00am.

Today was pretty much the same. When Cameron was awake he was pretty much clinging to me. He had a short spurt of energy in the morning so I could do the laundry, dishes and vaccum, and a little bit in the afternoon so I could paint primer on the walls.

Well I can hear Kris calling to get Cameron out of the shower, so that's all for now.

Forgetful!

Well I realized that I always forget many things about what has happened during the week when I post. I'm always in a rush because I usually post when Cameron is still awake (he's playing in the livingroom and I'm in the bedroom). So lets see... last week had its' ups and downs. It started off a tad stressful (we're weaning Cameron off his soother, so he's been really cranky). last weeknd was great. Friday night R & S came over and we watched a movie (well we tried too!). Saturday night Kris and I went on a date - we went and saw War of the Worlds (I liked it) and we went and had dessert at Death by Chocolate (loved it!) - it was great, Kris and I haven't had a date since May. Sunday was my sisiters baby shower. It was nice to get a break from my kid, but there were 3 babies at the shower!

Ok now this week - only one meltdown! On thursday cameron was VERY cranky. He decided that he didn't want a nap, but just be cranky ALL day (well until Kris got home!) Kris thankfuly gave me a break and took Cameron to the park so I could have some alone time. It helped alot! Yesturday I broke down and gave him his soother at nap because once again he didn't want to go to sleep - seconds after I gave it to him he was asleep (yes! I had 2 hrs! In which I could tidy up and prep dinner)

Well today is now saturday and Kris had to work, so it's just me and cameron again. R & S are coming over later to keep me company and even making us dinner! They are wonderful friends! Kris was laughing at me because I was getting excited that I didn't have to cook dinner! The little things I look forward to!

It's been awhile

Well I guess I have forgot to write here for awhile. Things have been ok. Last week was a bit stressful (husband working late, not getting a break from the kid) It was nice to have Kris home early today. I don't think we've had dinner together during the week for a long time. There's a park near our place that just installed a play ground for smaller kids (such as Cameron) so Cameron and I had a fun time there today. Boy does that kid have energy! After running around on the playground for awhile he decided to run through the water park with all his clothes on! It was really cute! Next time I'll have to remember to bring a camera. I'm hanging out with my sister more now that she's on mat leave, which is great. We haven't spent much time together since I had Cameron (we use to work together). I also started Weight Watchers last week and I'm finding it very hard to get in the groove of it. Oh well, that's about all that's new with me.

A little bit of everything

Well yesturday Cameron and I didn't do too much. In the afternoon we went upstairs to see if his friend Abraham wanted to play, but when we got there Abe and Nancy(Abe's mom) were just heading out the door to go swimming. Nancy asked if we would like to come because she has two carseats in her car, so we were more than happy to join them. So we spent about 1 1/2 hrs. at the pool which Cameron loved! We haven't been to the pool in quite some time. Abe had some water wings which I'm going to have to get some for Cameron because he wanted to swim like Abe in the deeper end (not really deep, just deep for 2 yr. olds!).

Kris is back to his gaming nights, and I'm happy he's able to go now because I know he's been missing them. So Cameron and I spent the night alone, well until about 9:30 anyways. Kris has been working some long hours lately, so we don't see him as much, well Cameron doesn't get to see him as much. I'm still awake when Kris gets home. He's worked over 20 hrs. of overtime in the past 6 work days! Oh well the pay is good.

Cameron and I finally went to the Library here in Langley (I have never been to the Langley Library before) and we checked out some books for Cameron. He loves having books read to him at nap time and bed time, though he didn't get to today at nap because he fell asleep in his highchair while eating lunch! It's so cute when he does that!

Well tomorrow is going to be a busy day. I'm babysitting Abraham because Nancy's dad is still recovering from hip surgery (Nancy's dad usualy looks after Abe). It should be fun, I know Cameron and Abe will have a blast! I could use the extra money too!
Well that's all for now.
