My Crazy exploding plant!

About a year ago I bought this plant from Walmart. It was a really nice plant till all of a sudden it started to grow these 3 leaf clovers all around the base of the plant. Just in the past few months it has been growing these pod like things. When they get to be big enough....well the explode, and out shoots these little white beads all over my kitchen table. You can be sitting on the couch and hear the pods exploding and the little beads hitting the table. It is the weirdest thing....does anyone now what kinda clove this is....it drives me crazy!

Mommy I can't breath!

Ahhhh 4 year olds...what to do with them! I was down stairs grabbing Liam from his nap and putting a load of laundry in to contribute to my mountain of laundry that needs to be folded in the spare room. I am starting to think that when I go down stairs Mike needs to come with me. If i am gone for more then 5 min he is into something he should not be....Weeeellll he found the Scotch tape and decided to wrap it around his waste about 15 times. He did this really tight. Well needless to say he was saying my tummy hurts mom...I can not breath. Well I found the end and told him to spin...well he spun about 15 times and feel to the floor laughing. I could not stop laughing as i was doing this. Such a funny kid...but man he can be a pain sometimes...Nothing like a 4 year old that ....Nothing like a 4 year...haha!

And he's Off!

Well Steve found out here a few months ago that they got a bunch of work up in Dawson City for pretty much the rest of the year. He will be gone anywhere from a week to two weeks at a time and back working here in town for a week....not that bad I know. But still feel sad about it. I am glad that there is lots of work as we are needing to save money for school next year and also the trips that we are planning on doing as well. So today is Steve's first day off to Dawson and my first day of being a part time single parent. What is in store for me...who knows??? I am sure I will do just fine..but will miss my hubby being around all time time to hold the legs of my 10 month old when I need to change him or to make a bottle for him...or to take Mike to the park when i need a break...I will miss the extra pair of hands and his companionship when he is gone...but Im strong and know that I will be able to do this as it is for the good of the Family and also so we are able to do the things that we have been wanting to do for years...but like most familys, just have not had the cash to do so. So I wish my husband all the best of luck with his time in Dawson as they are multi Million Dollar jobs that he is in charge of. So pretty much don't frick up...haha! I know he will do great as he is so good at his job. Love you my dear and look forward to seeing you soon...I am sure I will survive my part time single parent life.....I HOPE!

All I want is Scooby Doo!!!

Well last night was the last night that Steve is going to be here in town. So we had a bunch of tickets left over for the Carnival, so decided to go back and let Mike do some more rides. He really wanted to play the Scooby Doo game. You throw these balls down this table and they land in a hole...one is slow, fast, and faster. Well Steve decided to play seeing how he was the only adult at the game and figured he could beat all these kids. Well he was right. Steve was pretty excited to win Mike something, so we told him "what toy do you want?" He was like, ''I want Scooby Doo''. Well Scooby Doo was apart of the game...sorta like a horse race game. Needless to say Mike was NOT HAPPY THAT HE COULD NOT HAVE SCOOBY DOO. ......soooo he settled with a blue dragon...he was not happy at first with it when we got home, but ended up sleeping with it last night.

Our time at the Carnival!

Happy 60th Anniversary Whitehorse. Whitehorse this past weekend celebrated it 60th year of being the Capital City of the Yukon. There were many activities that took place up at the Canada Games Center and also including a Carnival. This is the first Carnival to come to Whitehorse in 20 years...crazy...but true. So we packed up the kids on Saturday and met some friends there and had a great time. Micheal was in awe of the rides and games. Liam could care less as he just slept the whole time. That kid could have freight train go by and not wake up. But Mike went on a few rides, but really enjoyed the plane with play gun on the front. Steve and his boss went on this crazy ride that was totally not for me. It was so scary looking, and new what I had just ate for lunch would wined up on the ground below. But Steve convinced me to go on this other ride. Did not look that bad, and he said "come on it is fun..just remember that." Well my goodness I just about passed out from screaming so freakin loud. haha, our friends below were just laughing as i pased by going about 100 km an hour...But all in all it was a great time and hope to see another Carnival come to Whitehorse soon. It was a lot of fun to go to.

The Evil Fridge

My 4 year old thinks that making his own meals it great. Turn the stove on...turn the microwave on..all that sorta stuff. If only I could put a force shield around my kitchen to block him from going in their every 10 seconds to find what he could make for me...Nana, grandma really who ever. I am so tired of this...does anyone have any suggestions for a very independent 4 year old???

My First Blog!

I totally enjoy reading the blogs of my friends and family and thought that having my own blog would be fun to have. I enjoy reading about their lives and experiences they have where they live, and thought it would be neat to have my own for people to read and experience our lives living in the Yukon. Hope you enjoy and hope I can figure this whole blogging thing out!!! Wish me luck haha
