Birthday Boy

That's right! My baby boy, Graham is 9 today...how did that happen?? He said he gets two of the best presents for free, no more school and he doesn't have to sit in a booster seat in the car anymore. He wants to throw the seat down in the hill in the back or have Uncle Jeff drive over it in the tractor but we are doing to put it in one of those donation bins.

Mike is working today so we are having Graham's party tomorrow, he is having a street hockey game with his friends...I love the "free" party. We gave Graham his presents...he got his own baseball helmet (don't like the idea of sharing helmets, where little critters could be living), a new glove and sliding pants (which he wore to bed last night and still has on). Elysia gave him one of those little baseball counters, where you can keep track of base, stikes, etc so he used it while watching the bluejays play.

Mike is heading to Cape Breton with the kiddies on Wed morning. I am unable to go because I have limited vacation and we are going to BC the following week. My kids have never really travelled without me, so I may be somewhat lost here in the house by myself...not to say I won't sleep in the middle of the bed...but my whole life will get in a car without me on Wed morning and I will be worried until they pull in on Friday.

Had a ladies night last night. Jackie had the girls over, her sister was in town from NFLD. We ended up in Jackie's hot tub last night. I had to run home to get my bathing suit on and Mike could not believe I left the house after 10 wrapped in my bathrobe...the hot tub was nice and I'm sure we made the picture running around the neighborhood in our bathrobes.

I have been having trouble getting to the blog, I used to post while I was at work but it has since been blocked...and it's hard to remember to get it done at night, there is always something on the go...soccer, baseball, something...
