Oh I can't believe it's 11:30pm and I'm still up....I was sure I was going to go to bed early tonight as Erica didn't sleep well last night, but I got caught up scrapbooking. Figured with this heartburn, why not just stay up and try to let it pass. Last night, I had to sleep sitting up for a while as it was uncomfortable, it's like everything is so pushed up to my throat. Connor must be growing lots and cramping my style.

Easter With Grandma & Grandpa

Grandma and Grandpa came over in the afternoon with lots of Easter Goodies!! Abby and Erica had some chocolate which they really really enjoyed:) they must get that from me lol. Emma also got 2 really nice skirts and the twins got cute matching outfits.

Check them out...




Happy Easter!

Oh this weather soooo needs to warm up. Gerry and I managed to get the girls out for a walk today, but not too long as it was still abit chilly for them.

The house has never looked so good:) Almost to good to sell now lol. We got really lucky and had Property Guys call us wanting to list our house for FREE! She said they are aloud to give out 2 free listings a month and felt our's was perfect for it! She saw it listed on kijiji. Talk about luck!

Easter went over really well, Abby and Erica caught on to the scavenger hunt really quickly and Emma enjoyed finding her clues and piecing it all together. She was pretty happy with her Bee movie and chocolates:)

Here's some pics from today.

Girls Night Out Scrapbooking

Tonight was a good girls night out. It was great to get out and socialize and get out for a while and get some scrapbooking done with others. Gotta do this more often...well until Connor gets here at least, I might need to take a breather then lol.

Here's some pages from tonight. I did more socializing then scrapbooking.

We're Moving!

Well we found a lot and are custom building a new home!!! The lot is only about a 5 minute drive from our house now, it's on Pinnacle Drive and the lot is 110x220! Emma will still go to the same school and be able to see Megan, Alyssa, Auntie Tonya and Uncle Robbie lots still.

We're going to have an in-law suite in the basement for my parents with everything they need to live independently (ie: kitchen/laundry ect.). We will each have our own entrance for total privacy and my parents will be able to help us out with the kiddies!

On a serious note, I think it will be a really good move for all of us, especially with Gerry working nights half of the month and me needing to take the kids to different activities.

We're all pretty excited to finalize the house plans, so they can start building next month and we can move in at the end of the summer.

Connor's Birthday

Today's appt. went really well. I gained 4lbs, got to hear Connor's heartbeat again and found out my c-section is booked for Monday May 12th at 8am!! Oh there's a light at the end of the tunnel now:) If Connor decides to come earlier then that, we'll just have to go earlier and have them squeeze us in.

This week has been a good week, the girls and I have gotten out to some playgroups and today we went to my work for a visit and for me to do my paperwork and clean out my desk. It was really nice seeing everyone again and Paula spoiled us with gifts for all the kids and a yummy chocolate bar for Connor, oh me really lol.

I found an awesome playgroup for the girls that is only about a 5 minute drive from home, close to Emma's school. It's run by the Early Years so it's free and the girls love it there. They have so many ride on toys, climbing toys, a kitchen and many other toys and crafts. I'll definetely have to take them back there, it keeps them busy and I can sit back and relax.

Here's some pics of them having fun!

I'm going on 32 weeks now and so anxious to meet our little man.....i've been trying to keep myself busy to keep the time going by fast. I managed to do a few more scrapbooking pages.


Gerry and Emma built a big snowman in the backyard, check them out...

Yah for "C" and "D" only 22 more letters to do to complete my twins ABC Scrapbook lol. It's hard to remember my little gaffers so small:) Their going to look huge when Connor comes and Emma will look like she's ready to take off to college haha.

Where has this week gone?? I've been pretty busy with Emma and the twins, so the week has gone pretty fast:)
We're meeting with a custom builder tomorrow to talk about building a new home with an in-law suite, the person that recommended them seems to hold them in high regards, so hopefully we are on the right path.

Below are a few pictures of Abby trying to sneak her blankie and soother downstairs:) She knows she only gets them at bedtime, but I guess she thought she'd try to pull a fast one by me, not a chance girl.

Conner's Crib

I've been getting abit stressed about not having a crib, bedset or mattress for Connor yet, it's amazing how relaxed you get by the 4th child. But today, I decided, was the day to get moving on things. Abby's room (which will be Connor's) is a cream color with Winnie The Pooh decals on the wall, so I decided to just keep it simple and get a Winnie The Pooh bedset, it's pretty cute. I just need to get a bedskirt and a dresser now.

Here's some pics of his crib set up in our room. It turns into a toddler bed and then twin bed and has a trundle underneath, but the trundle isn't put together quite yet. Gosh, does it ever feel real now with a crib in our bedroom again:)

Emma's 9th Birthday Party at Funworx

Emma's birthday party couldn't of gone smoother at Funworxs today, well except that Laura wasn't able to make it due to the road conditions. The kids had a blast and it was very stress-free for Gerry and I.

I think Emma really enjoyed herself and had a really good day. I know she got spoiled with awesome presents from her friends (that girl sure knows how to pick friends lol). It's hard to believe Emma will be entering the double digits next year....oh i'm so not ready for that.

Well, here's some pics from today's party! Abby and Erica were at home with a babysitter, so Emma couldn't have all the attention on her special day.

Well i'm officially done work and thankfully got just the right amount of hours I needed for maternity leave 601.72, talk about a close call "phew". I was just getting too exhausted with working all day and having the twins and Emma half the month on my own while Gerry's working nights. I need to wind down now and relax before Connor comes.
Here's some cute pics from a playdate at Tammy's the other night. I thought i'd try getting the girls to eat at her little table as she obviously doesn't have 3 high chairs. I think the girls really enjoyed it and felt like BIG girls.

Great, now i'm sick, oh the fun never ends.....oh well I won't bother complaining:)

Here's some scrapbooking I squeezed in today.
