Cake piccies.....
Now I've bored you all with endless movies (and the only people FORCED to watch these are Grandparents lol - the rest of you feel free to ignore them all lol!) here are a few photographs!
Doesn't my 'teenager' look oh so very happy stood in the back?????? lol!
Monday
I am looking forward to tomorrow. I really need a day at home to do nothing....WHEN am I going to have a chance to use my sewing machine????????? Something always seems to come up!!!
We normally go swimming on Tuesdays, but we swapped it for today as Sam LOVES to go swimming, so it was a birthday treat - and WHAT a treat! They had the slide out, so Sam had a blast going down the slide into the waves....and they have a lot of new toys - like a canoe and various new floats....it was fun!
After swimming we headed to McDonalds for a treat lunch. Then after that we went to Sobeys to pick up sams birthday cake :) I'm really pleased with it! I'll post pictures later! I left Abby in charge of the Jumbo box of Cheerios and she got distracted and went to get herself a cup of water and forgot to pick the box back up, so once I had them strapped into the car I raced back in to grab the box she had left on the table by the window lol! OMG I was so paranoid about getting the cake home in one piece I didn't even notice she didn't have the box!
Oh, as we were leaving the house this morning...well, we got to the end of the road and I realised I had packed everything except underwear for me! No bra and no knickers!!! lol..so we drove back and I ran inside and my Mom phoned, so I grabbed it quickly and explained the kids were in the car and I was just running back inside as I'd forgotten my underwear lol - my Mom thought that sounded funny! I was wearing my bathing suit you see ;)
After Sobeys we headed home and both Abigail and Sam fell asleep in the car!
Got home and I put dinner in the oven...chicken chasseur....Mmmmmmm
Then washed the floors and now am relaxing with a cuppa as the kids came home from school and Laurie made me a coffee.
They all seemed to have a good day - although Chris STILL wants to homeschool! We shall see!
I caught up with news on LP....
Susie got her new recorder today and played me the first song she has learned - it's called 'Just B' and thats exactly what it is lol - just one note ;) I filmed it anyway and will add that later ;)
I am TIRED this afternoon! Really tired! Laurence is flying his 'best ever' paper aeroplane....a modified design from the Dangerous Book for Boys......
So tomorrow I just want to relax....Sam can have the playdoh out...I want to make a banana and walnut loaf as I ahve too many bananas going brown.....and I want to work on my Simple Abundance workbook.
Anyway today ahs been fun - my Mom phoned to say Happy Birthday to Sam.....and my Sister Clare also phoned to say Happy Birthday - so I will add pictures for everyone of birthday cake etc etc later!

My Baby turns three........
And no Louise....I can't believe it :( Lloyd and I were watching him sleep last night and saying how we can't believe how fast the last three years had gone.....and that 3 years ago last night I slapped a nurse ;) Really! I had an allergic reaction to Morphine and started hallucinating and freaking out...the nurses panicked and tried to take my blood pressure and I didn't know what was happening or what they were doing and I slapped one of the nurses lol! I then threw up big time lol......
So thats when I learned I am allergic to morphine lol!
I was in hospital for 5 days before Sam was born - admitted for pre-eclampsia which is rare in a 5th baby when you haven't had it with any other birth.
Lloyd was going to pick me up on Friday morning and take me home - he was going to pick me up a bagel and coffee from Timmys but I started having contractions and a friend of mine checked me and said I was in labour (she was visiting me but is actually a labour nurse lol!) So I called Lloyd and said I was in labour and couldn't have my breakfast after all (sigh) and he dropped Abigail off and came straight in....
Labour started at 9:30am and Sam was born at 2:11pm...so quite easy really :) And just like all four of my other children, Sam was delivered by a British Midwife - only because my obstetrician didn't make it in time - she arrived about a minute late! In Canada very few people have Midwife deliveries and often you have to pay for them - so I count myself lucky - and am glad that Midwife deliveries are increasing :)
Today is also the Ukrainian Christmas Day which is celebrated hugely here in Alberta! Happy Christmas everyone :)
Today is also Takenzies little boys birthday - Lincoln and Sam were born minutes apart 3 years ago - just different sides of Edmonton!!
I'd also like to say that I am thinking of Christie today. Her beautiful Daughter Ayla would have celebrated her birthday today. Please keep Christie and Ayla in your thoughts today.
