Update of the past last 3 month or so.
I was going to add these pictures after the last post but had some technical difficulty so here they are. In no particular order because I am just not that organized.

Been Thinking
Over Christmas I noticed that instead of talking and focusing in on kids the new obsession has become Dogs. Yes Dogs, My sisters, Mom, friends and even people I work with. So I have been thinking and a little shopping and possibly, maybe, someday, considering bringing one into our family. (Thank God the kids don't read this I would never hear the end of the nagging) Not because everyone else is doing it so why don't we but I have and so have the kids always saw our home with a Dog in it. For now I have decided until I am completely out of Delta we can't and shouldn't do it. The main reason I am there is for travel and freedom, not that we exercise that freedom as much anymore, but if we had a Dog we would be out of luck. Plus I'm still kind of liking the no more babies in the house phase (well unless I'm getting paid to watch them).
The other big obsession seems to be the darn Wii. I can't escape it, people gripping they are sore from boxing on it. Neighbors asking if we want to come over and play with theirs. Even Adult play dates where they have BYOG (Bring your own games) so you can try out other games you might want to get, I guess I can't go for I have no games, well at least no games that I can bring with me. Our new family game is our Air Hockey table, and I must say it rocks. It is arcade style and takes up half our basement, but it is so worth it. I wanted to get it for the kids for Christmas but Erik vetoed me and it was a little pricey for a good one, But you gotta love the after Christmas sales for it was over 50% off and now you can hear Erik and I gripping about our arms being sore, but not from a Wii.

Not a great 08'
The first couple weeks of the new year haven't been the best...
for obvious reasons but also I never do well at this time of the year, and to think we still have a good couple of months of possible crappy weather stinks.
~Thankfully we have our 3 yr olds crazy sense of humor to keep us going.
Annika's new favorite saying every time we get in the car is "Buckle up don't be a Chicken!"
to some this would be just plain weird, but to me it makes complete since and I chuckle EVERY single time. ~ For at Thanksgiving the ARTIMIS (you know the sign thing over the highway with road updates ) had a special buckle up sign that said "Don't be a Turkey Buckle up!" It will be remembered I'm sure the rest of the year.
~ She has also become an expert on attitude which I'm not crazy about but it means she is growing up and she actually played in the basement with just Abi for almost 3 hrs today! Ahh blisss!
If you ever need someone to cheer you up it has to be my little blondie, as long as you have a basement to put her in when your done.
