Well the weekend went by quickly as we kept ourselves nice and busy. As of today all the available boxes are filled (no word on a rental yet) and visits made. In fact, for the second weekend in a row we ALL went to church! (thus the picture from yesterday – taken during service but AFTER the children’s service when the boys head to Sunday School) Echo was quite intent on stealing Trinity’s Colour Wonder paper and pen and trying to eat them. And, once again, she wore her Hello Kitty dress and I was unable to get the picture I wanted. I guess sometime this week I will just have to sit her down in the outfit and stage some photos.

All Dressed Up

Our Church in the new fallen snow

Saturday we lucked out, Ken and Ted had a working weekend – on their game they are programming (alpha testing to follow!! I will announce to get testers). With a movie on for the boys (Toy Story 3) we were able to grab the girls and head out to the stores. We were SUPPOSED to make it to the local (and beloved) thread store but we got there at 4 and they closed at 3 on Saturdays (total frustration), so it was right on to Walmart. It is so much easier to shop with a baby in a seat and one little girl running semi wild.

Piggy Back

We were able to pick up a fortifier for Echo to mix in her cereal and started her on that on Saturday as well (yes it DOES change the taste and yes she DOES realize that…). We won’t know immediately if this is going to substantially increase her weight gain but it is worth a try!

Sunday morning was, of course, church but right from church we headed to the den Otter home to visit for a lovely chunk of the afternoon… which means… MORE BABY PICTURES!! 2 weeks old this time! We are probably going to head over for a couple more visits… after all the kids are having a blast and we ARE moving in May…

So sweet

Sweet little Izaac

Today we had to run out to the church – to pick up the wet diaper bag I forgot in the washroom there (thank goodness they found it for me) and then back to the thread store to pick up two skeins of blending filament. I LOVE the colour – this i to be a part of my sister’s wedding sampler. I get the pattern (Ken assures me) tomorrow morning. So I will be a busy stitcher after that – I want it sent by the end of the month so it gets to South Carolina in plenty of time. I will have to send it unframed.

Gavin finished his little Math workbook this weekend! He was determined to have it done before Monday and worked VERY hard. The concepts AND counting are coming much quicker though I am still having issues with him and making mistakes. He takes it VERY personally when there is anything wrong with his work!

Completion

I got the last set of Lucky Star paper from Hong Kong today… before a smaller item I had ordered previous to that BUT at least SOMETHING is coming. Our mail has been horrible lately! So I have to do up the last of the Lucky Stars for the 1st birthday recipients and that will be off of my list. Anything I can do to NOT move with unfinished projects!

We had Fydo and Ted over tonight. Fydo was in town for 2 days so it was awesome timing to have the 3 guys get together and talk shop… at least that is what I THINK they were talking about, most of it was over my head.

So the rest of the week is pretty much an open book… we would LIKE to get over to the den Otter’s again, there is a trip to the zoo to plan AND this coming weekend some company and a trip to Grandma’s to see Great Uncle Wayne… We are making the most of our time here in the city while industriously looking for that new rental… please keep a positive thought and for those of your near and around where we are moving – an eye open!!!

And, as always – check out Fat Sheep. She has been a busy blogger!
