moments in the mommyhood - me & my girls


we had a great weekend. not a ton of sleep (surprise, surprise) but a good weekend nonetheless. we got into the xmas spirit and did some fun holiday stuff around town, had dinner with friends and i even got some sewing and knitting done! it's a christmas miracle...haha! not enough to be done, but enough that i got a tad bit more accomplished. i see many late nights ahead this week so some of the posts this week may be up later in the morning.

i also got to go out for lunch without the kiddos - now that was fabulous.the hubs had his exam on friday (thanks for all of your well wishes) and boy was it nice and relaxing to have him home and to have the much needed help again. we sure missed having him around all the time. we are looking forward to christmas break with him.

when putting my xmas cards together the other week i realized i had hardly any pics of me with the girls since the early fall so here's some for you all. we went for a late walk along the ocean last night..it was gorgeous with the full moon and blue sky at dusk. thought it would give you all a little taste of where we live. oceans and mountains. i doesn't get much better in my book :)

hope you all had a good weekend. what did you get up to? are you going to be up late crafting this week like me? happy monday!

  7. that is what i LOVE about BC... mountains and oceans. Sooo gorgeous. I was in Vancouver last April and I was lucky, the whole week I was there it only rained once. I got a good look at a lot of the mountainscape. I was sooo tempted to convince my hubby we should live in BC, especially cos I was like "HI, I SAW PALM TREES. IN CANADA. THEY WERE LITTLE BUT THEY WERE PALM. TREES."
    I would languish without my blue prairie skies, though.
    Glad you had a good weekend! those kids have got to sleep eventually, then it will be your turn!

  8. Awwww, shucks, thanks everyone. I like them too. I'm glad you all liked seeing a bit of where I live. It's gorgeous here and these pics only show a teeny tiny bit of it. And yes, there are palm trees around in both Vancouver and Victoria. Weird right? I used to live in Vancouver as well, it's gorgeous as well.

    Christina - Could I pay you to say that to me everyday? Hahaha. Seriously though, it's just the angle and the carrier. Makes me look slimmer than I am in that pic. I still got a ways to go before I am back to pre-baby.

If you would like for me to write you back instead, just leave your email addy (blogger doesn't always give it to me) and I'll send you a hello!
