Covet. Oh too cute. I know I'll have my own little monkey again soon...since my current monkey is giantish in his grownupedness (aka today he made letters of the alphabet...WITH HIS BODY!!!) but I still very much would like to have this little guy (or girl) snuggle with me in the middle of the night and wake up every hour or two for a feeding.


Give me a few months and I'll not be so in love with babies...just watch!

Being the Bane of my Existance

So...yesterday was the day I've been waiting for all pregnancy...ultrasound day! Yes being 37 weeks meant I ought to have gone before and had an ultrasound, and I did....and had I wanted to find out gender then I could've right? Right...except my unborn 18 week old bambino didn't want to co-operate then at all, and being only 18 weeks along it was still pretty early to say definitively whether this unborn growth was going to be a girl or boy, but we guessed girl.

Here we are another 18 weeks along the way and now this child is too big, too stubborn and...lets just say yesterday sucked. I wanted to find out so I knew what to buy and what not to buy...but clearly those things just aren't going to happen.

I've been in a funk since, and it's really put a damper on the day. Maybe I'll get to my OB this morning and she'll be able to proclaim randomly that this child is one or the other and I'll once again feel better instead of being a big loser and complaining to everyone and anyone.


El Preschooler needs a hug now he said "I love ya....I want to hug you"

apparently he's learning slang at an early age.

Firsties!

Welp...I've done it again, blog Numbero ?? At least 4 or 5...though they always just seem to be the same blog moving spots or changing because of changes in my life. Meh.

All older posts (or at least recently older ones) can be seen at GiraffeBlog! where eventually this may or may not end up being back at. I just felt like a change was needed and while I'm not one to bash WordPress (loved it actually) I thought using Blogger would be a fun change.

So a brief about me:

  1. Angel
  2. mom to Damien and unborn #2 (soon soon soon)
  3. on maternity leave now (woot)
  4. trying to
    • be green
    • be healthy
    • be crafty
    • be me
    • learn (always)
  5. Of importance
    • family
    • friends
    • reading (not even kidding on this)
    • changing for the better
I live in Edmonton, AB, Canada...there's 4 definitive seasons here
  1. snow with melting and green
  2. snow with REALLY cold and brown
  3. snow with melting and brown
  4. sunny with chances of snow
Ok while I may be kidding it does seem that sometimes all it does is snow here, and I'm not going to exaggerate about it.


I'm sure there's more, and I'm sure you'll find it all out as time goes by, until then I'm going to go work on a real first post...who knows what it will entail, but it'll be fun times for sure!
