It's been too long.....

Well swimming lessons are over, and both kids have been moved up to the next level. I didn't think that Micha would as she had a hard time listening to her teacher. But I spoke to the teacher after and she said she passed because Micha has absolutely NO fear of the water. She could drop her in the water and Micha would come up and not be scarred. I just have to work on her listening skills, she doesn't like to listen at home either so it's a contstant battle.

Logan is pretty much done with his potty training, He's even tying to go on his own...only when he lifted the lid last night it came down and smuched his finger..what a cutie.

Micha is also finished her dance classes so now I have to find something else for her to do. I was thinking gymnastics but it is REALLY expensive, even tho I think that she would excel at it and maybe give her some discipline. (I wanted to post a picture and a video of her recital piece..but I seem to be having some issues with blogger. So I will get that done soon)

I seem to have 2 of the same person whe it comes to my kids. Logan is Micha's little parrott. Does EVERYTHING that she does and says EVERYTHING that she does and with the same tone of voice too. I hope that he will come into his own soon. I have a feeling that Micha's world will come crashing down on her when this baby is born cuz Lolo will finally realize that he doesn't have to take her guff anymore and she won't be able to boss him around or push him around without any reprocussions. It will be a sad day in the life of Michaela but a rewarding one in Lolo's life. i just hope that they can stop fighting..I know full well that THAT won't happen. it may end up getting worse.

Oh and on an end note I just want to say CONGRATULATIONS to Kim and Andrew Hawryluk who welcomed a daughter on June 19th!!!

It could have been disaterous.....

The first sunday of every month our family gets together and has a family dinner to celebrate the birthdays and anniversaries that take place that month. So yesterday we gathered for our monthly dinner and the kids were having fun palying outside while the adults were talking.

Now to give you alittle background my parents live on an acreage and on that acreage they have a swap way in the corner.

The kids were playing in the treehouse, but Logan being who he is was off on his own becasue he likes it that way. Well, Ihad this feeling to go and look for him so I walked around the acreage calling his name but got no response. I told Sean that I couldn't find him so Sean took off in another direction and heard him crying. Sean went in the direction of the screaming and found him half way out in the swamp. he had waded out into chest deep water, got stuck and was just standing there screaming.

I ran back to the house and got the boots while Sean kept an eye on him to make sure he didn't fall. I ran back and in the meantime my dad and a friend asked me where he was I yelled he was in the swamp and they ran out and so there went Sean, dad and Garry Wickwire into the swamp to pull him out. He was stuck in there good and I am thinkful that he didn't fall cause yeah...things would not be good, I wouldn't have my little boy anymore. I am thankful that he was under the protection of the Lord and that he was being protected from the worse thing that could've happened.
