Are you there Bloggers? It's me, Amy...

My Blogger App on my phone isn't compatible with my ioS11 update, and now I can't even do photodump posts that I really need to do! Oh well...first world problems, right? So for now, all you get is words, until I figure out how to get pictures back up and running :) Friday was a hectic day. After work, I ran to grab Garett at school. When I got home, my dad was already there, with Tyler and Keira. We were running short on time, so we ordered in from Tony's up the road. My MIL and FIL showed up, as did the twins (our sitters) to watch keira while the rest of us headed out. Originally, Tyler was supposed to come to the Halloween party at G's school for the first hour, but the band he was sitting in with at LIVE! on Elgin, told him there was a designated load in time, being that it was downtown. So, off he went right as we were leaving for the party. He didn't miss much though. There were some tables set up in the hall as raffles to win a cake (a bunch of people ma...

Friday after I left work, I went right home and relaxed for a few minutes before the kids and Tyler got home. Tyler made us some nice Filet Mignons in the cast Iron pans, and I made some loaded baked potatoes, caramelized onions, mushrooms and  some asparagus wrapped in fresh from the butcher genoa salami. YUM. Afterwards, we relaxed a bit and put the kids to bed. Ty played in Cornwall for two hours, so he left around 8:30 or something and was home around 2:45.  I only woke up long enough to see he was home and went back to sleep. I got hardly any sleep that night, so I was trying to take in what little sleep we were both going to get. Saturday morning the kids slept until 6:30, so I took them downstairs and fed them breakfast and we played while Tyler slept until 9. Once he was up, we loaded everyone into the car and headed to the rink for Garett's CanSkate. It was a little chilly in the arena that day, so Tyler took Keira for a ride to Tim Hortons to get hot chocolates, ...

It was a "busy" lazy weekend. Friday at work, my boss (who was acting for my higher up boss), told us we could go home an hour earlier than we usually finish. But then around 2:30, we all decided to head over to tower D (the bar), and celebrate an early thanksgiving weekend. I had a few drinks, and stayed until 7:30, when I ubered home. We had a pretty quiet night after that. The kids were in bed when I got there, and I was asleep by 9:30. Saturday we woke up and made the kids breakfast, and we played until we had to head to Cornwall for my family meal. We played and ate and visited until about 4:45, and headed home. We put the kids to bed and ordered in some Wild Wing for a bed picnic and watched Super Troopers. We were in bed by 9:30 again haha Sunday we woke up and made a big breakfast, and I went out to the store (which was a ghost town) to grab some fresh fruit and veggies for lunches this week, and then cooked turnips all day so we could have a big casserole dish o...

Hello, hello, everyone! Time is not exactly on my side these last few weeks, so I don't feel like I'm just falling behind in blogging, but also in life! I just want to take a minute to SLOW DOWN. I'll break it down into updates on each person in my little clan, or it'll just sound all over the place! Garett: -He adjusted very well to school. He has made lots of new friends, enjoys going, and loves before and after school programs as well, so he can "hang with his bros" he says.......4.5 going on 10, I swear. -Since he graduated from the Sea Otter Level in swimming, he has started "Salamander" level. He's three lessons into this level, and will graduate come December 20th. He is still loving swimming! He very much looks forward to Weds nights. At this rate, in the accelerated classes, he will be just about life guard level trained by the time he is 7, lol -He started CanSkate last Saturday. He discovered a girl from his class...
