Owen’s Party & Misc.

We attended Owen’s first birthday party on Sunday. It was a rock star theme so Owen was done up like a rock star. I forgot to dress the kids up. It was chilly walking over there in -35 but they live close so it was fine. Check out the guitar cake. I have a lot to LIVE up to with these darn cakes!

Edzea and Georgia had lots of fun. Supposedly a school yard bicker happened at Montessori between Georgia and Mackenzie earlier in the week over who was Edzea’s best friend! They all play well together now though.

There is a random pic in here of my/our (Edzea and my) first attempt to make my Mom’s famous pizza recipe. It wasn’t quite as good as Mom’s. I need to do some fine tuning obviously but it was still good enough until we perfect it. Yum! both kids love it and it’s a healthy version with light crust and whole wheat flour and CHEAP!

I’m trying to get ready for Rohan’s Teddy Bear Picnic party right now. It’s going to be a bit over the top as usual. I can’t help that I was an event coordinator in a previous life! Tim is going to freak out when he sees all of the second-hand teddies I’ve picked up around town in preparation. They will be given away through a game called Teddy Bear Hot Potato.

Rohan is a climber. He uses anything he can as a step to the next level. Tim figures we need to just teach him how to get back down as he seems to only want to get up as high as he can. I can’t leave him unsupervised for much time anymore as he now moves things to help him get up to places. He isn’t walking yet but he’s climbing. He stands on his own and walks one-handed with us but doesn’t seem to want to let go quite yet.

I have his twelve month appt on his birthday on Thursday.

He said Dada to Tim the other day. He tries to say Milk, he signs Milk, More, tries to say all of these words too so I think his communication skills will be good like Edzea’s.

Edzea is just getting more and more articulate as time passes. I can’t even give examples because it’s just everyday life now so I don’t think about it too much anymore.

Rohan is weaned! It hasn’t been a big issue. He will take a bottle kind of in the middle of the night instead of being fed but I don’t even think he needs that. He just wants a cuddle with Mommy at 2,3 or 4am. So hopefully we can cut that out soon.

The weather is chilly. Edzea played outside with Georgia on Saturday morning when we had a brief respite for half the day but they only lasted 20minutes with Tim in the yard.

So, we’ve signed the offer for Bromley with subjects slated to come off on March 9th and possession on April 20th. That will be a HUGE relief!

Other than that, we are looking forward to househunting at the end of March.
