Sneak Peek!

Final product

cute and simple

Kind of ruin the cake with the huge princess on it but it's all for Janae!!

Some pictures of Janae's Princess cake for tomorrow. I was creative and just bought window cling princess things at the dollar store all of them for a buck and then mounted them onto cardstock and taped a toothpick on the back. Had i realized how big they were compared to the cake i would have boughten smalled stickers but whatever!!! The is a white cake cut into three layers and inbetween each layer is lemon pie filling and cool whip!!! I can't wait to sink my teeth into it tomorrow!!

It was Only a matter of time...

The fort we made this morning which i mention below! I have no idea how to get my pictures to go where i want them too!!

Her pretty blue stitches

So happy about having a butterfly bandaid

this is in the emergency room, she wanted to see the picture and when she did she started freaking out so i couldn't take another one that would show her wound better.

Janae took a dive off the couch the other day and landed right on her chin on the hardwood floor. So after a few phone calls the inlaws drove over and stayed with Camryn til John could get home from work while i took Janae to the emergency. She split her chin pretty deep from falling off the couch and i was sure it needed stitches. I don't panic in these situations I do cry and i have no idea why cause it's not the end of the world. I do know this time part of my crying had to do with the fact that i knew she would need stitches i would need to hold her down and listen to her scream. We went to our brand new hospital here in Abbotsford where they kindly gave me a list of walk in clinics as they said the wait woudl be at least 3 hours long. I debated on what to do cause i really don't like walk in clinics but i also didn't want to sit there for 3 hours. So I decided to leave and try a walk in clinic(i phoned from the hospital to make sure the doctor on call could stitch her up if she need to be) We didn't have to wait long and sure enough she needed to stitches. Janae did really well considering he was shoving a needed directly into the wound from four different angles. I was able to hold her in my lap for this but for him to do the stitches we had to lay her down and when i say we I mean me the doctor stitching her and a nurse. It was pretty bad. So she has her two stitches which come out on Monday assuming i will be able to get her to the doctor!! she already said she is going to wait til the string just fall out!!!! Surprisingly she slept through the night which she has not done in AGES! i guess all that cryingi from like 2-6 wore her out. She doesn't complain it hurts unless she bumps it by accident and is now just complaining that it itches. Its pretty purple and gross looking but we keep a bandid on it. Here are some pictures.

Today was an interesting day! Both girls have had attitudes and behavior issues and I am surprised i still have hair left because i felt like ripping it out. Camryn is picking up on all Janae's wonderful behaviors and it is freaking me out! She has started pinching and it hurts like crazy but she doens't stop no matter what you do, we've tried the ' that hurts" and put her down, time out, slap of the hand and the slight pinch to show her it hurts and she still does it. And just yesterday she started the hair pulling. I really hope she stops she is my easy content child but she is turning into a little monster!!! I am just hoping it is a short phase that doens't last too long. To try and help the girls play together and maybe illiminate some problem we built a huge fort in the living room and it was all fun and games for about 15 minutes before Janae claimed the fort hers and no one was allowed to come in.

Tomorrow we are celebrating Janae's 3rd birthday early as John's parents are leaving for Paraguay on Sunday and will be gone over Janae's real birthday so I should go I have a princess cake to make!!!

Off to the Zoo!

It was such a gorgeous day out today. I was mad that i didn't go out yesterday when it was so nice so I was thankful to wake up to yet another gorgeous day today. So seeings i have a year pass to the zoo I figured I should make use of it today. We were probably 3 out of ten people there so it was awesome. The animals were all up at the front so we were able to get really close and get some really good pictures. It was also great because this way Camryn could see the animals as well. We had so much fun walking around the zoo and checking out all the animals. Once we had done the walk around we spent the next 45 minutes at the park they have there which is great! We were unable to ride the train as it is broken at the moment but it sure didn't take away from the fun we had. Both girls were amazing the entire time so to top off the morning we went to McDonald's for lunch. We just share a 6 piece chicken nugget meal and are all full by the time we are done so it ends up being a pretty cheap meal for three people.

After lunch we came home and put Camryn down for a nap and then Janae and I headed back outside to clean out the van and tidy the yard a bit. Once the cleaning was done we played "baseball" and "soccer' Janae style. Once inside we did our nails, made dinner and cleaned the house! It was a very productive and fun day. It is days like this where i realize how truly blessed I am to have such wonderful children.

Happy Birthday!

Today is a special day. It is the birthday of my Oma(my mom's mom) who passed away November 21,2007 after having poor health for sometime. She would have turned 88 today. This is her second birthday that she has spent in heaven. We all miss her very much. I sure miss her verneka(menno perogies), meatballs, and her pickels (have yet to find a pickel that can replace hers) Janae was able to meet my oma and have her in her life for 18 months before she passed away. Janae was able to come and visit her in the hospital and even to this day remembers going to see her and refusing to say hi to her. Janae says now, "omi's with Jesus and she is so HAPPY!" I love that Janae remembers her but it's sad to think that she will forget her memories of Omi. I on the other hand of many memories of Oma that i will cherish for ever. Happy 88th Birthday Oma!! We love you so much.


Hope you had an amazing day dancing with Jesus!

Oma meeting Janae for the first time. Oma missed meeting Camryn by a month. Oma would have loved holding Camryn. Janae was such a fussy baby that no one could hold her for long but Camryn would have snuggled in Oma's arms and savoured the moment.
Oma and Opa at their 60th anniversary. This was just before she got really sick and hospitalized and never made it back home, to her earthly home that is. This is also the last picture I have of her before she passed way.
