The Greatest Gift

Today was my first Mother's Day. It was spent with family at my Grandmother's in Chilliwack and at Jordy's parents in Surrey. It was a nice, relaxing day, eating yummy homecooked meals and enjoying one another's company. I couldn't think of another way to spend the day. Jordy, Izzy and I got home late and I think Izzy was a bit bored being at other people's homes sans toys so we played with her in her floor gym as soon as we walked in the door. She's been rolling over onto her tummy since last Tuesday, but the only problem is she gets her arm stuck under herself when she does roll over and then she becomes upset. Tonight she rolled over and just as Jordy was about to help her unstick herself, she whipped out that arm and was completley on her tummy!!!! I was so proud of my baby girl! I am just so amazed at how quickly she's learning how to do all of these difficult things! I am a proud mommy!

The Dark Side

As I was packing my four door sedan up for an overnight stay in Hope with Grandma and Grandpa I came to the realization as I was shoving in Izzy's jungle gym and bouncy chair that more space in a vehicle would be nice. How could I get more space?, I asked myself, to which myself replied...."A minivan". NNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOO!!! Although at that moment for the briefest, tiniest nanosecond I understood why people purchase minivans. Then I ducktaped that idea shut, put it in a box, tied chains around the box and then threw the idea into the ocean, never to be heard from again. Scary moment, that.

My Favourite Girls


Here is Isabel and Bryn at their very first Easter Dinner. Neither one of them was aware of the other. I hope they grow up to be great friends.

WWJD

To the guy in the car with the bumper sticker "WWJD", he would use a turning signal when changing lanes and drive with a constant speed. Dork.

People Are Strange, When You're A Stranger

Yesterday, Izzy and I were on a mission to find wedding wrapping paper. We went to the Hallmark store by my house and finally found some. I can't believe how expensive the stuff is. The woman working there came and helped me with the door. She ooed and ahhed over Isabel and normally Isabel smiles and stares at people when this happens, but this time her face contorted into the biggest frown and cried! Then she looked at me and stopped. I have to say it was kind of funny. I don't know what could've created that response but she just did not like that lady at all. Then today we went to CIBC to visit Jordy at work and she was all smiles to the hordes of people who came up to her. Funny girl.
