December 5th

I must say this little guy grows on me more and more everyday. Look at his sweet little face. Although he is not smiling in these pictures he smiles soooo much these days it is awesome!!! I am beginning to realize that winter is going to be rough. I tried to take him out for a walk in his stroller yesterday and well....let's just say Canadian snow covered roads are a nightmare with stroller. We were getting stuck in ruts and snow drift and almost tipping over. It would really help if I lived in a place where there were places for him and I to go but there is NOWHERE and it really bothers me. I hate complaining about it but it is really upsetting some days. There is nowhere to even go grab a coffee...like I mean nowhere.
Today I tried to go to the gym in town and it was closed so I came home and did Body Pump which has been my favorite weight workout forever and it really is awesome. It is 1 hour long total and each major muscle group is work for 5 solid minutes to fatigue.....there is nothing quite like it really. I bought the equipment from my cousin's gym before I moved away and I am so glad I did. Now I must work on the ol' cardio and running situation!!!! My great friend Kass just text me and told me she ran a 1/2 marathon in Vegas in under 2 hours.....AMAZING!!!! YOU ROCK KASS!!!!
I plan on going to Saskatoon on Wednesday for some much needed city time:)

Carter

1st off I know my blog is a MESS!!! I am in the process of getting a new blog as this is a disaster!!! Just wanted to share a little pic I took of my friends little guy Carter a few weeks ago.

December FANTASY wish list

Well it is that time of year again. Xmas is just around the corner and I am a consumer's dream as my mother tells me. I actually do NOT want anything for xmas this year.....seriously. My mother reads my blog sometimes and this is directed at her....DO NOT GET ME ANYTHING. Each and every year since I was born my mom goes over the top at Xmas and spoils me rotten. This year is Jack's 1st Xmas and it is about him although he does not need anything either. All I want for Xmas is to go away in January or February and to shop while I am down there.
If I did want things for Xmas it would be as follows:
1.North Face triple C Jacket as seen on Angelina Jolie. I am sure she is wearing it in LA or somewhere stupid. I have wanted this jacket for like 4 years now but it is expensive.
2. FUJI instax Polaroid camera WIDE because it's cute
3. AN IPAD just because I LOVE all apple products
4. Starbucks mug.Especially this lovely pink one. LOVE LOVE LOVE I collect starbucks coffee mugs.
5. Cute yarn ball mobile for Jack's crib.
6. Just for fun a "cheap" lens. Canon 85 mm 1.8

OK I have been on www.koodeal.com ALL day trying to bid on something and it has taken over 5 hours and I am sure I will loose my bid. I think this site is a scam.....does anyone know?

Jack's Unfinished Nursery

When I was prego with Jack I searched the internet looking for nursery inspirations. There are so many beautiful nursery's out there and I was inspired. I wanted a neutral palette with lot's of room to POP color. I am nowhere near being done with his room but I thought I should share a little with you. As you can see we have a closet door problem! Oh and his room is really really small as it is hard to incorporate too much stuff. The teddy bear does NOT stay in the crib so please don't worry I just picked it up off the floor for the picture!

Today I:
- had coffee with my awesome mom's group
-went to the gym for a fantastic workout
-played with pooches outside for a little bit
-cleaned the house
-spent too much time online as usual!!!

Bath Time & Sleep Training

Thought I would share some pics of Jack enjoying a special bath at the farm this weekend. As you can see from his face he LOVES bath time! Oh and in a nice orange bucket made it different and special this time.
We just got back from a few days at the farm and it was Jack's 1st visit ever. Kim was really excited to take him there as he is a farm boy at hear and it is his home. Grandma and Grandpa LOVED having him and LOVED playing with him. It is great to have grandparents as that relationship is so special for both child and grandparent...oh and a nice break for Mom and Dad as well.
Jack is in his crib right now crying a little.....I am trying to get this little bugger sleep trained better. He is a cat napper throughout the day and it sucks. He needs to just go down for a solid 1 hour nap twice a day and sleep through the night. He is currently not doing either and it is making me crazy!!!!
OK now he is screaming gotta run!!!!!

Happy Jack

We are off to the farm tonight for Jack's first ever visit!!!
