the one where we party

Posted on February 24, 2010

It’s a sure sign of the times when your kid goes to more par­ties than you do!  On Mon­day we rocked the bowl­ing alley for Noah’s birth­day party.

Squidge was really excited even though she was still feel­ing a lit­tle under the weather.  The birth­day boy had all his friends over to BK for the meal then we headed over to the bowl­ing alley.  I don’t know if it was the walk/run or the cold weather or her still being a lit­tle bit not her­self … as soon as we got to the bowl­ing alley she had a cough­ing fit cul­mi­nat­ing in a big old puke fest in my hand! LOL sorry for TMI!  I kind of thought it might hap­pen, it was that kind of cough, so I had a wipe and cupped hand just in case.  It was pretty gross as she had JUST eaten her sup­per.  As soon as she puked she ran off full of beans!  She spent almost the entire night danc­ing her lit­tle bum off!

It didn’t stop her from get­ting a top bowl­ing score and win­ning a colour­ing book– Woot Woot!

After walk­ing back to our car and puk­ing some more it was time for bed, but not before eat­ing some birth­day cake!

There was also a lit­tle bit of this…

when­ever she doesn’t get what she wants.  I think she had asked for a blue slushie and being the mean mama I said no.





the one with good friends

Posted on February 19, 2010

Squidge and I met up with one of my bestest friends today.  We were sup­posed to go and have a mini photo shoot for N who is turn­ing 3.  Instead of buy­ing another toy I thought I would take some pho­tographs and then frame one.  Unfor­tu­nately N was a lit­tle under the weather and the weather was a lit­tle crappy.  We changed plans and met at a soft play (warm and dry) with the hopes of get­ting some time to shoot.

We had a fan­tas­tic time as usual.  B sat there and lis­tened to me stress out over school place­ments and houses… ya know the usual!  Squidge is still a  bit under the weather her­self but still she had a good time.  As we were leav­ing  I got to take a few pho­tos but like I said the weather wasn’t ideal– a lit­tle too cold and the kids were a teensy bit tired.  I did man­age to get some but not as many as I would have liked.  Still I’m sure B will like the gift as she’s totally into hand­made thought­ful gifts.





the one where she’s poorly

Posted on February 18, 2010

Poor Squidge has been under the weather all week.  On Mon­day night she was run­ning a really high fever (102°-104°) so we both had a pretty rest­less night.  I decided to keep her home from nurs­ery, I thought send­ing her would delay her recovery.

So we’ve been stick­ing pretty close to home all week and are begin­ning to get cabin fever.  Thank­fully on Thurs­day we’re meet­ing friends and we’ll both be able to blow off some steam.

I think I for­get to men­tion that Wal got back on Tues­day and some­one is over the moon to have her daddy back.

She’s been stick­ing pretty close and keeps telling me that she loves him the most but she still loves me.  She’s really affec­tion­ate and I’m really enjoy­ing it.  She ran­domly through­out the day will come up and pat my leg/arm and smile at me or give me a hug and kiss.  I love that she’s such a cud­dly child and hope it con­tin­ues for a long long time.
