Summer time fun!!

Jeff was proud of how great my flowers were blooming, so just a little glimpse of what my yard is starting to look like. As soon as my loving husband mows the lawn or me I guess(yuck my least favorite job) I will take some more pictures.
I love lilies and I want to plant a bunch more.




This week our mom's group met in the spray park we have here in town. It was so fun! The kids played so well, even though they weren't too crazy about the water, it was really hot but with a nice breeze. Thankfully Aiden still had a bit of nap while we were there, as you can see he was getting a little out of sorts. Also a picture of our newest little peanut in the group. Caley is the newest addition in the group, we can hope Janet has a girl to so this little peanut won't get left out, she would be very lucky come 16. Anyway I love being outside and I love hanging out with other mom's and just talking and feeling normal about some of the things I am going through.

We then took a visit to see Daddy at the office. We officially signed the papers and our homestudy is complete for fosterparenting. So as soon as we get back from holidays we will probably have another child. Just ONE however, unless its really crazy circumstances. That is really exciting and I feel like I can prepare a bit more instead of being thrown in so quickly.
As you can see Aiden is growing so fast, loving his pablum, I think we will start a morning feed as well. He is so smiley and pretty much smiles at anyone. Still have the frustrating soother incidents, but he actually slept straight until 6:30 this morning. He hadn't eaten since 6 the night before so I expected him to be up a little earlier, but he went back down and slept until 8:30, when I think Daddy woke him up since he hates going to work without seeing him.
It's been super, super, super hot out here, but I don't really mind since we have air conditioning and I love waking up to sunny days. It does make me want to hibernate a bit more instead of doing yard stuff.
Well speaking of, I am sure my garden is in desparate need of some water.

Hi Joc!
Your flowers look beautiful - you can see the hard work you put into your garden. Play dates are great -it's nice to feel supported in your role as "mom". Hope the weather cools off for you a bit and we'll see you soon!

These pictures made me want to:
a) play in a sprinkler park
b) cuddle your ever growing little boy - so handsome!
c) remind Jeff about purchasing Celine Dion tickets...
d) give you a big hug!!!(only a few more sleeps)
P.S. Is Janet pregnant?
Love you lots! Off to Calgary for the weekend.

I love to see his head tilted to the side in his car seat. I thought Isaiah was the only one.
Been thinking of you this weekend.
