Canadian Moms & Moms to be!

[nkbapbt]

I actually never thought messy babies like Lakai was, were actually all that cute. My OCD harsh shows when I see them. But I guess because he is mine and I know I can clean him OCD style...then it's ok!

 

[BlackBerry25]

I am def. getting more OCD each day. Not a good thing.

What is everyone up to this weekend?

 

[Try Rocking]

lol love Lakai eating spaghetti, love the mess too

Amanda, I love your video! Do you have any recent ones?

 

[Vickie]

we are having some friends of Stan's over for dinner on Saturday and will probably play games or the Wii or something. And Sunday I want to go to the mall to find a sweater for myself for our Christmas pictures

 

[BlackBerry25]

I am hoping to go to this christmas festival downtown with J & A and my sister and her new guy.

I can't believe Renah is one!!!! It seems like yesterday you were in third tri and you were thinking about different baby names. Wow. For some reason Renah is the one baby I just can't believe is 1. Baffled.

 

[BlackBerry25]

But then I just thought about all the stuff Renah does and I can't believe she isn't one yet

My OCD is getting worse too! I clean every single day its that bad. Im almost like Monica on Friends...making people eat cookie over the sink to avoid crummies.

I've been lazy and haven't taken any recently - but you've inspired me. I'll give it another try. Need to get Shawn to take another bump picture when I can too.

We have a dinner party to go to on Saturday night, but the rest of the weekend is still free.

 

[Try Rocking]

Awesome thanks I'm sure he's much more noticeable now when he bumps you
Hopefully he cooperates!

Justine...once you go outside of Walmart and Zellers..you're screwed for money haha. Please Mum is pretty expensive, but Gymboree is a LOT worse. And if you're not into spending an arm and a leg...don't order from Janie and Jacks. Its like...the country club of children's stores

Thanks Rae Good to know! Loved the other posts from Vickie and Wendy too. I HOPE I HAVE A GIRL so she can wear all of LeeAnne's clothes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love Emily and her "I'm not having any more kids for at least 5 years" mentality, more than I can say!!!

LOOOOOOOOOOOVED your video Amanda! Is your bellybutton still that 'innie'? I should take another video too. The only ones I have are shirt-on videos. Need a nekkid one!



I think this baby is going to come out jigging! I plugged in my cd player and have been listening to Natalie MacMaster all afternoon while I was cleaning/baking etc.... And let me tell you...there is lots of bum jiggling and bouncing around when I listen to fiddle music! haha. Baby is probably like "holy hell, what's going ON out there????!?!"

 

[Ashy]

Stiina - friggin East Coast Kitchen party thats what!!! ohhhhh i miss Home lol. i love me some fiddle music. a girl i went to school with plays fiddle real well, shes got a couple CDs out now. and i love bagpipes!! but me and Kyle cannot listen to Amazing Grace on them anymore.... its what they play at ramp ceremonies overseas.... pretty sad. but we like the rest of it!!

I'm hommmmeee....

The dentist broke the top back half of my tooth off. FML.

I am going to lay in bed and be depressed.

Stiina - Kyle is depressed about how physical his course is. hes already got a shoulder injury to deal with from last tour and now theyre doing hand to hand combat (flips/punches/defensive manouvers/pressure points.) tomorrow he has the Canadian Forces Xpress test (up to level 6 on the BEEP test/25pushups and crunches) and hes afraid he wont pass. they have to be physically fit to be on the course but he just did the battle fitness test a month ago..... so he shouldnt HAVE to do the CFXpress test. but alas he is...... and theyre picky. if he doesnt pass this test tomorrow morning he is off of the instructor portion of the course, and therefore gets sent home. he is being looked at for an advance promotion to MasterCpl, and if he fails the spotlight will be off of him. and that sucks.

sooooo ALL LADIES!! pleeeeease send super happy fitness vibes to my hubby in Wainwright for tomorrow morning!!! we both need him to pass this, even though it means a longer seperation.

Terri - ok, now that i looked at this babysteals website FINALLY. i think i looove it. do you know how bad the duty fees are? or how that even works? i have noooo idea.

I hope Kyle kicks ASS!!


I've only bought a couple things off of babysteals, when they are more than 50% off and I needed them (or thought I did). So the duties didn't kill the deal. I guess the duties are based off of the purchase price.

Those tops are available at Birth Source in Edmonton though. If you decide to get any and go to Birth Source you are required to stop at my house as I live very very close to the store

 

[Ashy]

LOL of course!! whats in birth source? do they have a website?

So I ended up buying that blue polka dot parka from Please Mum As well as the hot pink pants to go with them.

Man was she ever a Mama's girl tonight! She's kinda in that separation anxiety stage but tonight was nuts. She did NOT want anything to do with P at all! He'd try and take her (to give me a break) and she'd start pitching a fit! I decided to bathe her tonight as she was being super clingy and while upstairs if I stepped out of her sight for a moment (we had the baby gate up at the stairs) she'd start freaking out and crawl to wherever I was.

Its cute, but draining. But there you go Nic! Karma came around and bit me in the ass! No less than like what... 12 hours since I posted about how she goes to either of us without any problems? LOL! I know that kids like to prove their parents wrong, but this is ridiculous!

She's in bed now. Gonna play some Bejewelled Blitz then go to bed!

Hi everyone!
I have only read a few posts, but ...
Wendy! Noooooo! Um, I hope said dentist is now comping you the root canal and the crown or whatever the hell you will need?
Hope it doesn't hurt too much!
Stiina - Simon was the kickiest little thing in the womb. The doctor told me "active inside usually means active outside" Boy, was she right. I certainly did give birth to a little mover. He is chasing the cats around right now with one of their toys, trying to get them to play. And he loves fiddle music, although I am playing him more French Canadian stuff to honour his heritage. La Boutine Souriante is my favourite group for that.
Ha! The cats are hiding under my chair!

Hannah is such a daddy's girl now and it's frustrating mostly because if he's in the room I can't even hand her a sippy cup she gives me "the look" and pulls away from me and points to him. I kicked him out of the room this morning because he was trying to work (cold downstairs so he wanted to work up here where it was warmer ) but everything I tried to do with her/for her she'd pout and point to him/walk over to him. After about 10 minutes I had it and told him to leave and she was fine

 

[Vickie]

Hannah wasn't much of a mover in womb but man she's made up for it since she got out

 

[Ashy]

SOMEBODY shat up and out her diaper. in the back. not so bad but i guess its an early bath tonight!!

 

[Tiff]

I remember a few times where I looked at the mess that Claire pooped out and deemed that it would use too many wipes to clean it up so she got hosed off in the sink or bathtub.
