Teeth?

This weekend went by very fast! Friday..blur cant remember. Saturday we went out to Okotoks to visit good friends and introduce Noah. They have 2 pugs which he absolutely adored. The drunken pugs (named Glen and Guiness) also loved him too with much love, kisses and wet willys :)

The downtown of Okotoks is super cute. I will have to go out there one day in the summer.

Sunday we went to Banff for the Morning. John had a claim and so we made the best of it. Cold but took my sisters advice on this fabulous coffee and bakery place. Wild Flour, it's devine.


This week so far, errands and walks. I love after dinner walks. We made our way to Starbucks and Noah passed out in the stroller. He loves the fresh air (as do we) he remained sleeping for half an hour in the stroller when we got home. Adorable.

Today went by very fast, played with the munchkin (6 poopy diapers today) ?? Crazy! Anyhow back to the good times, we played and he napped. I was able to finish a little something I was working on for my sisters shower which is coming up quickly meaning the lil man will be here quickly too!! Can't wait to meet him.

Went for a walk over to the Sobeys cause I was in the mood to have breakfast for dinner (gotta love that once in awhile). Noah loves the bjorn (which he is quickly outgrowing boo...) Anyhow he laughs and smiles his face off when he is in there.

GO CANADA GO!! Yay, nice job guys and actually just a wonderful day in general for medals!

Noah did not want to sleep tonight, poor guy felt a little warm and pink cheeks. He had his fingers in his mouth..I am thinking his teething but I have thought that before and nada so....not really sure. However we are at 8months now...and no teeth? God they are gonna hurt when they do come in. Yikes!

Girls night is planned for Saturday which I am looking forward to. Been awhile since I have been out with the girls for beverages. Dad's in charge....he is a fantastic dad so no worries there. Hoping there is no hangover cause I am definately not a fan with a wee one.

Hangover + baby= Large Headache!

I should eat what he eats!!! ;)

I'm ready for flips flops now, umm k? Thanks.

So yesterday was a great day. Beautiful weather, long naps so I took advantage of the long nap and got ready so I could head out with him for a bit. We headed over to Market. Found some cute hats for him...boys definately do not have as many options as girls :) I think that is a good thing or I would buy all the cute little girl clothes...as it is I had a ton of clothes for him. Yesterday, I packed up a ton that don't fit him anymore...there are SO many. Some that were worn only once I think and some never worn (such a shame)

So anyway we headed out in the beautiful sunshine and did a little shopping. He had lunch at the mall (vegtable beef and some apple) and I had a coffee, my fav Skinny Caramel Corretto from Second Cup.

Made our way home, he is such a good sleeper in the vehicle, makes me feel bad having to wake him when we get home so sometimes I will get a coffee at a drive thru or take the detour to let him sleep a bit.

Today we just hung out, going do some laundry and Swiss Chalet gift card is itching to be used :) But I would like to stay in my pjs so I will see if I can send my darling husband out for take out ?? :)

Tomorrow we are going over to a friends for a visit in Okotoks (she has never met Noah yet) and she has kindly offered to make us an early dinner! She is an amazing cook too.. so YAY!

Dinner, bath and bed for the Munch then movies tonight with a glass of wine perhaps. Perfect to me.

L O V E




Our Valentines day was lovely!

We had Sunday brunch at my moms and he passed out his Valentines and received a gift from Grandma...very cute, a dragonfly teething ring, a book and a new pair of pj's. Thanks Grandma!We watched a movie Sunday night and relaxed. Date night in, just what we needed.

Today John was home from work as it is family day so I made pancakes and then we went for a walk with Noah in the Bjorn, he laughed all the way home! :P Seriously my face hurt from laughing. Made a really nice dinner, chicken and chorizo romesco with spanish potatoes with kale. It was pretty good. After dnner we all went for a walk again over to the Starbucks for a coffee and to just get out. It was a gorgeous day. Noah had 2 long naps today for 2 hours each and then went down at 7:30 no problem. Lovely weekend all around.


This was at our dinner Saturday night, candles, wine and the baby monitor....ahh. Life is perfect :)

Tasty cart? Bleh!!

Today was a nice day, coffees and breakfast together. John is on call so he had to go out on a claim for a short bit and then we all went to the Mall to get out and have the best Sharwarma! So delish. We went to the Cross Iron Mall, the restaurant is called Madina. Worth a try!

Noah is sitting in the shopping carts now and I seen those moms that have the padding in carts where their child sits and thought hmmm is that necessary?? The answer is Yes, yes it is (I found out this week). I went to Walmart with the monkey and he was all smiles touching the items in his reach, pulling clothes off the hangers and then I was looking at something, look back and he is about to suck on the cart...YUCK!! So gross! So today I have purchased the padding! :) Now I will be one of those moms, and with good reason!

Noah was not a fan of wanting to sleep tonight, I am sure that he now knows that he is missing things when he goes to sleep ;) and he did miss out Valentines dinner great, wine great and chocolate fondue so amazing!

Brunch at my moms tomorrow...excited! Who doesn't love brunch??

LOL I just realized that my post has alot to do with food! Maybe I need a midnight snack??

Dear John,

Ha..I just realized that I could be talking about the movie or addressing my DH. So Noah went to the movies for the first time. Dear John is fantastic...and Channing Tatum is quite easy on the eyes. He did pretty good. Noah's new thing is lalalalalalalala...seriously, when I give him a cheerio or puff he is very vocal... la laalalalalalalal. When one baby cried, they all started...it is a great idea though. I rocked him up at the back for a bit and then he fell asleep on me for about 40min. Stars and strollers...thanks movie people.

Made some more Valentines for some family, ladybugs with little cards that have his hand traced out with a crayon..cute. I will post a pic of the lady bug. Easy peasy ;) Then there is a little bag of goodies to go along with it.

Yesterday was beautiful out so we went to run some errands, walmart and then walked to the Sobeys in the warm sunshine to grab some steaks for a bbq, grabbed a skinny caramel corretto (YUM) and made our way home.

Tonight, we are getting the groceries to make our McInnes meal for Valentines Day! It's delish...brushetta, olives, jalenpeno cheese ball, crackers, roasted red peppers, spanish style hot chorizo..then bernard chocolate fondue with pineapples and bananas..FYI Pineapples and chocolate are ridiculously good. If you have not tried it you MUST.

Dear John, (for real now)
Please don't be jealous of my small crush on Channing.
Love you.
Here are the lady bugs that "Noah" made. Check out the man bug in the middle ;)
On the top of the bug tied with a ribbon is the Valentine card.

Perfect

Yes!

Ok, not sure if this was a fluke or what but he stayed up a little longer, had a bottle and ready for bed at 7:30, went down easy peasy :p

So far so good!
