Vaccination Day

I think I put it off long enough. Today we took Garett in for his 4 month vaccines (at 5.5 months lol) and a checkup. 

He is such a good sport, except when he sees the nurse that does the needles. He hates her. I thought the needles actually hurt him, and they probably did, but he only cried when he saw her touch him and jab him. As soon as she left the room he was laughing and playing. Hmmm haha

We have a perfect and sweet little boy on our hands here ! 

He weighs 15 pounds 10 ounces ( 25th percentile --nice and fit !)
He is 27.5 inches long (90th percentile -- a tall boy!)
His head is 17 1/4 inches around (50th percentile-- perfect sized head to house his big beautiful brain !)
He is advancing quickly for his age she said.
Starting pablum and puréed foods in 9 days :) in hindsight, I am glad we waited to start other foods--lowers the risk of illnesses and allergies and formula/breast milk is the only real nourishment a baby needs for 6 months. I am starting to feel bad for him though the way he looks at our food, so come on 6 month mark!! Lol

Ok, enough bragging about my perfect child hahah

After we left the doctors office, we stopped in for a burger at Five Guys (yummy) since we were jonesing for a homemade delicious burger.

We dropped Tyler's truck off at the shop to get some things tuned up on it and we will go back and pick it up in the morning :) 

After we got home, Ty went right out to cut the grass (took a small break and is back out) and I am playing with my boy-- taking lots of breaks from typing lol

Since we ate a late lunch, we will probably just heat up soup or make a sandwich or a plate with hummus and tzatziki and veggies for dinner since I don't think we're too far away from bedtime right now. Lol

Have to go into town tomorrow evening for some groceries and some stuff I need for cousins night :) 

Did I mention yet that we booked our anniversary trip? I can't remember , but we booked it a few weeks back. We are heading out of ottawa and shipping out to Montreal for 2 nights (aug 31 and Sept 1) and staying at  Le St- Martin Hotel Particulier Montreal. I chose it after a lot of research and reading reviews lol it's so nice :) I am going to make reservations at one of Chuck Hughes restaurants for dinner (but they only take them up to 30 days in advance)! We are pretty excited to walk around Old Montreal and downtown Montreal since we haven't been there together yet! 

And THAT is how every weekend hooks up lol. Between our date day, cousins weekend and that...we're already pretty booked up! Geesh!

I don't know if I have anything else to catch up on! Lol hope everyone is staying cool in this insane humidity and heat! Storms on the weekend should cut through it a bit :)

      You may beat us there if you're going for the end of summer too lol but I've read about the one we want to go to-- Garde Manger...he has another one that has an actual menu and is much cheaper it looks like--Le Bremner-- but this place only has a chalkboard menu and changes constantly, so aside from his classics (braised short ribs and the lobster poutine), we won't even be able to suggest anything :( but I've heard nothing but great things about it, so either way, you should definitely go!

Life Lately

-Hosting Bearbrook Ladies night two weekends ago was wonderful! I put out a full charcuterie spread, made a mint/cranberry/grapefruit drink to share, and all of us received a tarot card reading, palm read and a facial read. Pretty much the reoccurring consensus between all three reads (it was two different people doing it) was that my heart and mind live in a state of conflict, but that it works for me to live in a state of balance. I deal mostly with logic and facts, and less with emotions; they think I would be good as an analyst (weird, since this is pretty well my role at work), and with numbers (which I also do all day at work lol). I'm stubborn and loyal and do not have a mean streak. That I am the same person at home as I am in social settings...blah blah blah. It was interesting! -Last weekend, we went out to Tyler's Disco Inferno show to celebrate our friend Jami and Donna's birthdays. We danced away (one of Keira's ECE's from daycare came out too!) and i...

-Garett went on his first friend play date ever , and he had so much fun. It was his two best friends that left daycare to start school last year. -happy that while Garett was at his play date, Tyler was home with Keira and I went out for a bit alone, then came home and we finished The Belko Experiment movie before I went to get him. (He was there for two hours) -sad that this week, Garett only has four days left at daycare :( Friday is Keira's first day, while I keep g home with me. Can't believe it's already almost school time!! -as a "goodbye" gift from g, we bought his daycare provider a necklace from peoples that is a heart with some Garnet stones in it (Garett's birthstone), to remember him by, and I ordered an Aukey essential oils diffuser , a doTERRA starter kit and an essential oils mixing guide recipe book thing. Hopefully she likes it. -Keira adapted SO well to putting herself down for her nap. She's down to one a day, and I just give...

Friday fun!

Thank God it's Friday, and that this week is O-V-E-R!!! -It was a stressful week at home. Looking forward to a fun weekend! -I am being audited for child care expenses in 2018--I'm not the only one that thinks we pay too much money in child care! LOL...I submitted my receipts online (they are catching up with the times and it's great!) and turns out I actually underclaimed by a few hundred dollars haha. -Tonight is calm, just hanging at home with the kids. -Saturday I have an eyelash appointment at 2:00, and then we have a sitter coming at 6:00 so we can go to a Wine & Cheese night up the road at our friends house. -Sunday is a day of rest until the evening when Shan comes over and we head into town to go to the Trailer Park Boys Christmas at the NAC (I bought Tyler and I tickets as an early Christmas gift). We are sitting pretty close, so I hope we don't get any of their nasty sweat on us lol -Monday I am off since the TPB thing only starts at 8PM, I didn...
