Pregnant Friend

2007-01-10T10:30:00.000-08:00

My friend Tracy is pregnant, she is due in 3 weeks. I think I appriciate how beautiful it is to be pregnant when it's on someone else. Granted Tracy has only gained 20lbs and looks amazing (I put on 60lbs-not so amazing!). Anyways I also know whats comming at the end of it. When I was pregnant I only talked about the fact that I was pregnant, not to much about the fact that I was going to have a child. During the first pregnancy I guess you don't really have an appreciation for whats comming because you simply can't understand till it's here.

I complained a whole lot during my pregnancy. Watching Tracy go through everything (and not complain) has really gave me a good perspective on things. The next baby we decide to have, i'm really going to try to love the whole experience. The whole pregnancy is a huge blessing, and it's so beautiful that I really want to enjoy it all. Lets hope I don't throw up as much!

Good Luck Tracy!

Not the best at this!

GETTING MARRIED!!!!!!!!

2007-01-09T12:13:00.000-08:00

Ok well from the title of this blog, obviously Chris proposed to me. HEHEHEH i'm still giddy about it. Here's the story of how it happened.

The during first week of december when it was snowing heavily, Chris had the day off work. We droped off Jack at Grammas house and went out to do some shopping. When we were finished he was practically begging me to go for a walk in the freezing cold snow down at Heritage Park. I reluctantly agreed!

We walked out towards the river, it was really beautiful. He pulled me in close and started to tell me all these super sweet thing. For those of you who know Chris, you know he's not one to wear his emothions on his sleve, so this was really sweet. I was smiling ear to ear, not sure what he was doing. Then he got down on one knee opened the box..........i was like WWWWWWWHHHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAATTTTTTTTTTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And he asked if I would marry him.

I thought he was joking until he opened the box (because he has joked about it before)! LOL! Of course I said yes. Once I said yes he huged me, then he tackled me down to the ground, throwing snow at he. AAAAhhhhhh yes that Chris for ya. Yup the man i'm gonna marry. He is quite the funny one.

He always keeps me laughing. Even though the past year has been such an unbelievably hard, amazing, changing experience, it has only made us better and stronger. (So sappy but so true).

So for those of you wondering, no date is set, but were pondering this summer. Who knows?

Long Time

2006-12-22T13:46:00.000-08:00

Ok it's been about 3 months since I have blogged, so all you guys have probably stopped reading this a long time ago. I'll write anyways. Jack is 8 months old, he has 8 teeth, and crawls everywhere. He pulls himself up onto everything. If anyone wants to make a quick buck they should market a padded helmet for babies! I think all of us mothers would be ridiculous enough to buy them! I just love him so much, he is so cute and funny. Jack has a personality like no other! He is sweet, funny, and makes me laugh constantlt!

Hair Loss

2006-08-29T13:37:00.000-07:00

Ok about a month ago Jacks hair started to thin. Gradually more and more continued to fall out. Well now he's bald as an egg. No more mohawk, but he's still a stud!

2006-07-30T14:37:00.000-07:00

Chris, Jack, and I at Lake Louise. Soooooo nice, I would love to go back!

Alberta Bound

2006-07-29T22:35:00.000-07:00

Chris had holidays this past week, not sure where we should go we eventually decided on Alberta (I have never been there). So we drove starting off in Shushwap for 3 days, to Banff/Lake Louise, Calgary, Drumheller, Edmonton, then Jasper. Whew.....were lucky Jack is good in the car. It was an awesome trip, I think I have seen the majority off what Alberta has to offer, beautiful province, although it still doesn't compare to BC!

Family Photo

2006-07-05T10:10:00.000-07:00

I keep meaning to get a family pic taken, we were out on Saturday night and Chris's friend took this one of all of us. So here's the family!

Congratulations Andy & Juanita

2006-07-05T10:01:00.000-07:00

Saturday 12:36pm My older brother Andy and his girlfriend Juanita had a baby boy. Damien Michael Tucker 7lbs 3 onz. He is so cute. He looks exactly like Andy, its to weird, it's like Andys been Shrunken down into a baby....bizzare! Juanita had a really rough labour, but the baby is a cute healthy little guy. He's so sweet, he looks tiny beside Jack ( who's only 2 1/2 months) but wow, how fast they grow, its crazy. They came home from the hospital on Tuesday July 4th. So we will see how there first night went.

It's ben awhile!

2006-07-05T09:57:00.000-07:00

Ok Ok Ok! Sorry it's been awhile since I have wrote anything. To be honest I had a bit of an EBay binge.....whoops! Plus it has been so hot out that I have been swimming and out in the sun non-stop. Also Chris and I started to work on the yard, we have to landscape our entire backyard. That is a lot of work! But I am here to let you know that im back in business.

The Office

2006-06-09T13:22:00.000-07:00

Ok so I was watching TV with Jack the other night and I am channel surfing as usual. I pass by a show called "The Office." OMG! I have never seen a more pointless but hailarious show. I was laughing out loud....and yes I was alone. This doesn't happen very often.

Now I can't seem to remember what time it was on or what day. Apparently it's a totally popular show, and I just never herd of it. I can't wait to see it again. Anyone know when and what time the show is on? Or where they sell the season?

Its such an awkwardly funny show!

2006-06-09T13:17:00.000-07:00

Chris & Jack......how cute! He's such a good Dad!

First Family Outting May 27th, 05

2006-05-29T10:12:00.000-07:00

Ok so we went traveling as a family for the first time this weekend. Saturday we were up and out of the house by 9am, we caught the 11am ferry over to Victoria for my Unkles birthday. Fist off I have to say I am very proud of myself for making it out the door all packed and ready by 9am. This is the first time I have been on time since I have had Jack, LOL! The whole day went smoothly, we came back on the 7pm ferry, once we were home Jack had a final feed and went down for 3.5hours, not to bad!

I am suprised the whole day went very smoothly! Its definitly encouraging for future outings. Can't wait!

runnin on no sleep

2006-05-24T13:05:00.000-07:00

How do you get your baby to sleep at night? Jack eats every 2-3 hours even at night, sometimes every hour and a half. He wakes up hungry so I don't want to let him cry and not eat. The doctor said he's a big baby so expect him to eat A LOT! But 2-3 hour every night, its fine throught the day, but at night! I swear he's killin me here.

I dont mind getting up and feeding him, but then he can be up for an extra hour or two after he finishes. How do you get him to go back down right away? Im so exhausted, just one night where I could sleep for 6 consecutive hours would be a dream come true! He gets a full feeding to, he eats at least 5 onzes in a feeding, i feel like a dairy cow here. Whats a cow to do?

2006-05-22T13:16:00.000-07:00

Hahaha......i'm having way to much fun1

Well what can I say......life has done a 180 dregree turn around! I have a new baby boy (Jack Joseph Anthony) who is pretty much the cutiest thing I have ever seen in my life! I have an amazing boyfriend who is a wonderful father. Life is good.

Having a baby is the most work I have ever done, but by far the most fun I have had. Jack Is so funny. Chris got the experience of being peed on the other day. I couldn't help but laugh.

I will finish this later, baby calls...................
