Day 51

Looks like I missed a day. This was the day we came back home. This will sound cheesy, but I always miss Scott so much when I’m away without him.

Day 50

Clark and Grandma’s badges. Clark has a fish badge for being a good swimmer. Grandma has a pistachio badge for eating 10 pistachio’s really fast.

Day 48

Sunday dinner. My Dad makes the best Yorkshire puddings.

Day 47

This is what Clark did while I wasn’t looking.

Day 46

My favourite things to do at my parents house are to read and sleep.

Day 45

We found five spiders in the space of two days in the house. So my Mom and Clark made this sign to keep them out.

Day 44

One of the best parts of Gram and Gramps house, are the video games.

Day 43

 

The boys and I went to my parents house for a week. Travelling four hours alone with three young boys is “special.” But to be honest they were actually really good, considering there was no DVD player or anything like that to keep them entertained.

 

There’s no love like a Grandma’s love.

Day 42

Happy two years of life! My tractor, cookie monster loving boy!

Day 41

I love this guy. I just wish I could be a better Mom to him. Today was a hard day. A bad Mom day.

Day 40

Happy 27th birthday to me!

 

Day 39

Scott and I went on a bike date for my birthday. I don’t actually know how to ride, I’m just pretending. Also that looks like a beard but alas it is not.

 

Day 38

Clark’s last day of playschool. He has the most awesome teacher and he just loves her! I know it’s cliché, but I just can’t believe how fast he is growing up.

Day 37

Nolan and all his stuffings (as Clark calls them). His two kitties, his Iggle Piggle and his Makka Pakka. (Okay they are not really from that show but that’s what he calls them). Also Can you see little Benton at the edge of the picture?

Day 36

Clark creating at his little desk. He can spend hours drawing and creating.

Day 35

Benton Loves the two shag carpets we have. He has even begun falling asleep on them. What a little sweetie.

Day 34

Holiday Monday! Just a quick picture of Amanda’s family before they head home to Fort Mac.

Day 33

My sister and her family also came to visit for the long weekend. Benton hanging out with his fav cousin Olive.

Amanda and Duncan also bought us some delish ice-cream cake. Tyler did an excellent job of cutting it.

Day 32

Scott’s sister and her four boys came to visit for a few hours. Having seven boys in the house was fun! I teased Scott that it was like looking into our future.

 

Day 31

It was a mosquito day today. Meaning too many mosquitoes around.  Especially for a little guy who is very scared of them. Clark and Nolan built a big fort out of the kitchen chairs.

Day 30

The view out our kitchen window. I actually like being able to look outside at all the construction. I know it won’t last long and there are always new houses popping up.

Day 29

Just a small stop at dollar-rama to buy some things for the people who lost their homes in the Slave Lake fire.

Day 28

I was finally able to make it to the temple. It’s been way too long.

Day 27

Nothing goes better with a fruit smoothie than a delicious hot wheels car.

Day 26

One of Nolan’s favourite things in the whole world is to help unload the dishwasher. I always let him do the utensils because that is the part I hate doing the most.

Day 25

I had a birthday party for Scott at delux burger bar, his favourite place to eat. Direct flash is so flattering :P. Also bald guy in the background add so much to this special moment.

 

Day 24

 

Scott turned the big 30 on Friday the 13th. He doesn’t look a day over 23 ;)

 

Day 23

Scott studying hard for his ACP exam. Soon he will be an EMR! His first step to becoming a Paramedic.

Day 22

 

Sliders? Yes please!

 

Day 21

 

Benton is already three months…

Day 20

My little matchy matchy boys.

Day 19

 

Happy Mother’s Day!

 

Day 18

 

Benton sporting his Toupee. It’s a tradition in our family for Scott to clean out my hairbrush and pretend to use it a a moustache or toupee’s for our bald children. Yes I know, gross.

Day 17

Clark needed a picture of us together for his playschool Mother’s day video.

 

Day 16

I bought these for myself as a mothers day present. Maybe I’m a shoes girl after all?

 

Day 15

 

I wanted to take a picture proving that he actually wears clothes. This shirt describes him so well….

Day 14

 

Waiting for our pizza at Chucky Cheese. I love how Nolan is snuggling his kitty.

Day 13

Modeling the duct tape belt. This is what has to happen when someone takes their diaper off every night. You can imagine the “surprises” we find in his crib the next morning.

Day 12

This is what happens when you have boys. I wouldn’t trade wearing gonch on heads for princesses any day.

 

Day 11

Some one has cute bed head.

 

Day 10

I captured his dimple! And I have never seen a cuter nose on a human being before in my life. I can’t stop kissing it.

Day 9

I’ve been missing OPM and Tao Signature (My two favourite Asian restaurants which closed down) so I made some coconut rice and some pineapple curry chicken.

P.S I still haven’t calibrated my new monitor (shame shame!) so if my pictures look wonky that is why.

Day 8

Scott and I decided we are tired of being out of shape. So instead of sitting on the couch watching Netflix and eating chips every night, we are working out. And little Benton likes to sit in his bean bag and watch his mamma jump around looking like a fool.

Day 7

Baby Airplane

Day 6

Scott’s profile

 

Day  5

I don’t have any fancy wall displays up on my walls yet. But I love these pictures I have on the fireplace. Every time I walk into the room I look at them and it makes me happy. I can’t believe these three boys are mine.

Day 4

 

My wrap is a life saver. It has allowed me to check facebook and look at blogs clean and cook like a good house wife! I get to cuddle Benton and make the kids lunch at the same time.

 

Day 3

I took this picture while I was up with Benton during the night. It was completely dark except for the light from the computer.

Day 2

Nolan watching a house being built across the street. Most people might think that living in a construction zone would not be a good thing. But when you have a connoisseur of heavy machinery living in your house, it’s pretty awesome.

Day one

Clark’s profile. Watching Sesame Street is serious business.
