So when we were in Tillsonburg, Laura had gone for a speech assessment, however i had to tell our speech therapist that we were moving. She found someone in the area- as i told her i was willing to drive up to an hour for Laura to have her therapy. Well I just got the call this morning that we are starting next Monday- I am unsure how things work here right now but I will have better understanding on Monday.
We also got our health cards today! Now we are officially Albertan!!!
We knew for a couple years now that we will be going to Florida for Christmas in 2012. We have been saving up Aeroplan points and everything. Well this weekend we booked our trip. We were only going to go for 2 weeks however, as it works out staying for 3 weeks worked better for us. So we are going to three weeks. Friends and family are more than welcome to come visit us if they want too!!
Now we just have to look at booking a house- we would like 2 side by side houses as the Dale's don't want to share a house with the 4 kids (who could really blame them! heeheee)
Our trip to Grande Prairie was actually exstended- Matt was staying there for 2 nights, however after my first day there I WAS NOT Staying a 2nd night, Laura had run off on me, refused to listen...you know all the stuff a 2 year old does. However the 2nd day there the kids were amazing. They listened real good...so their reward was staying a 2nd night. They loved to pool, the hotel even had a waterslide. Laura was swimming around with the waterwings and even jumping in like a big girl our 2nd night there!! They are definately growing up my kids.
Laura thinks she can go all day without napping, usually around dinner or right after she cuddles into me and falls asleep. As much as i dont like that she does that - I LOVE IT!! She's only young once and I love the cuddles. She's gotta learn she's not quite there yet she still needs to nap.

Been A While
So we had Laura's birthday party with Jess and Jessica and the kids. The cake turned out pretty awesome if i dare say so myself. The weekend after the birthday was the Superbowl. Well Matt invited everyone from work over- obviously not everyone came but we had a great turnout. We managed to get the house in order the week before - all the boxes were emptied and well it was a great party- the kids played downstairs, where we set up the ping pong table. I think they all had a good time.
John and Laura started swimming lessons on February 11th in High Prairie. However this week Laura didn't get to go, she has been sick almost all week. John had his first school trip with the playschool he attends. They went to a carnival in St Isidore- which is a huge french festival. Sounds like he had a great time- however we had a conversation as we were driving home from me picking him up from school.
"So John did you have soup and grilled cheese for lunch"
- I said no thank you but they still gave me soup. And i didn't want a grilled cheese so I ate the lunch you sent me.
"OK - so what else did you do?"
-We played outside.
"Did you have maple syrup on snow?"
-The other kids did but I didn't mommy.
"why not John?"
-Because you tell me not to eat snow.
"But John mommy tells you not to eat snow and you still do it, why didn't you try it? you love syrup"
-I don't know
"That was one of the treats mommy loved as i was your age"
And today i had to tell him to stop eating the snow and catch up with me.
Well Friday we went to Grande Prairie- we bought a Hyundai Elantra it's Red!! It's Great!! It's Matt's!!! Now we are going to sell the van and I get to drive the huge truck
Yesterday Laura managed to open doors with the round door knobs. OH NO!!! I also started trying to put her in big girl underwear- Within 10 minutes she had her first accident. Yesterday I put a pull up on her for the first time- she insisted on underwear on top.
Today- the kids had lunch downstairs. Laura came up NOTHING on her bottom half...So i go downstairs to find her diaper. It was wet but that was it. So i go to change her- Noticed POOP on her bum.... oh no. So she must have pooped in the basement after she took off her diaper. I gave Matt he option to change her or go find the poop....she must have been taking care of her doll- pooped and kept taking care of her babies. She had traces of it going every which way in the toy room.
