Weekend and well..stay tuned....

Sean is whisking me away this weekend. We are heading to Fairmont for some well deserve R and R. We have been caught up in the rat race and so this will a chance for us to reconnect and have some time with no kids and some good friends.

Micha had her first day pf preschool since the spring break today and her preschool has undergone some major change. The major one that I am concerned about is that they changed the teachers. Micha is not one that adapts well to change and I warned the new teachers that she may be difficult today and she was. But not as bad as I had thought. I am just going to have to keep a close eye on her progress and if I am not as satisfied with it in the last 2 months of school as I have been in the beginning of her school year then I will be finding a different preschool for her to be going to. Which is too bad because she has made some really good friends this year, but that doesn't mean that she won't be able to see them again. Micha makes friends where ever she goes, a talent that I wish that I had.

There are some exciting changes going on in our family and I will fill you in on them a little later...but in the mean time..stay tuned for all the excitement.

Our fun weekend...


So we went to Magrath this weekend to spend the weekend with our friends and we had a blast. So thanks to Patrick and Louise for putting up up in their house.
Saturday. Louise and I decided to brave 4 kids under 3 and take them to the Coaldale candy parade. Boy did the kids have a blast. They sure raked in the candy. They had a petting zoo and we again braved the crowds and took the kids in there as well. Micahela started to enjoy it, but got scared when a sheep came up to eat out of her hand. Keira, though was right up there petting all the animals. I think if it wasn't so crowed and she didn't have some big animal eating out of her hand she would have enjoyed it too. Then, if that wasn't enough, we took them swimming. Michaela has been swimming up a storm and I was tempted to let her jump off the diving board, but I chickened out. She is a little fish in the water. She found a floating toy and decided to use it as her own little private diving board.
While Sean and Patrick were at a wedding that night Louise and I put four kids to bed and had it all done by 7:30 YEAH for us, needless to say it was a small miracle. Then while it was quiet, we worked on the quilt that we decided to make for Michaela about 8 months back. It was fun, but ask Louise, it was a ton of work and she still has a lot do to on it (at least all the seams were ironed. hehe ;)
So we paked a lot into a weekend, but still it was fun. I've missed my best friend since they moved to Magrath, and it's nice to be able to have weekends that we can hang out and be together.
Love ya Weez.
