Hey everyone!
So its been months. I've been slacking. I know, it's bad. I'll do some general updating LOL.
It got so busy, normal summer stuff and other things. We didn't go on strike, as I'm sure some of you know. As a backup plan I got myself a part time job in June, and had already started when the new collective agreement was signed. So, being me to a T, I felt bad even thinking about quitting when they had put so much time into training me, so as of right I'm still a part of the Penningtons team. I do like it though! I've limited myself to 8-12 hrs/week so its not that bad. I am pretty tired though a lot of the time, and I do miss my fam but luckily I have a one of a kind husband and amazing baby girl so its all good, at least right now!
She's 18mos now, incredibly. Saying a lot of words (some indecipherable, but still words!), and she's in the 90th percentile for everything at her doc appointment. I am so proud of her. Potty training seems to be a ways away though, all she does with the potty is carry it around or try to stand on it so far :s which kind of sucks but what can you do. Just keep her around it and keep tryin here and there. Once we're home more we should be able to get that on the right track. Em goes to daycare once a week now too, and it is going well (wish she could go more, but its $$!).
Tomorrow is our fifth wedding of the season, and last so far - thankfully! Not that I don't love everyone but it gets tiring and expensive. Chris has been in two, so that's been a bigger expense as well. Wouldn't trade it of course, these people are a big part of our lives but still, its busy. We're really looking forward to seeing everyone tomorrow, its been way too long since we have all hung out. I'm looking forward to not hosting something with everyone and just being able to relax. No husband in the wedding, no toddler running amok and no real responsibilities when it comes to it. Just having a good time with good friends.
We cloth diaper part time now, I'd love to do full time but it just won't work just yet for our family. Our favourite so far are Fuzzibuns, and Bums Up Baby. They are great!! I love doing it, I don't mind the laundry at all and Chris got my clothesline up so all the better. Anyway everything is going pretty well here at the house, the small renos are going well. Chris is almost done the basement and pretty proud of it, I'm proud of him too. He's done everything by the book no matter what and it looks great. It has driven me crazy off and on haha but it is close to being done.
I'm having some aches and pains this week, to get boring here. LOL. My hip has been so sore - I've been limping all week, and this morning I woke up with a huge ache in my chest, right between my breasts in my sternum. Its so painful! I researched it, so I wouldn't over react, and it seems like it could be "Costochondritis". Nothing major by any means so I read but I'm glad to have put a maybe name to it. I called the doc to get in today just in case but he had no appts today and is going on holidays next week. Oh well. The receptionist didn't seem concerned (do they ever?) so oh well. I'll keep an eye on it.
Anyway everyone I hope everything is okay with you guys. Leave me a message if you want! :)
Glad to see you're blogging again. You're like super woman with 2 jobs, being a mom, wife, and attending a million weddings. I can't believe on top of all that you're cloth diapering part time. That's awesome! I have one job right now couldn't keep on top of cloth diapers :)
