Ouchy!







Again, what fabulous weather we are having! Most of our time is being spent outdoors....the boys are just loving it, and so are Mommy and Daddy. Shane just seems to love having the fresh air on his skin and is constantly smiling..although he has seemed to pick up a cold. He especially loves his walks in the stroller and is so attentive to what his surroundings are. It was much to my surprise last week when Nicholas, on his own, started shooting hoops in the backyard and also later, set up his t-ball set and was practicing. Last year, we had him enrolled in blastball which is the earlier version of t-ball and he really didn't have that much interest in that or any sport really....it was all about his trucks and cars. But this year, it is looking hopeful. Yay!!






As great as the weather was and the weekend in general, it was all while feeling quite alot of pain in my right arm...Johnathon says it must be a pulled muscle and I'm thinking he is right. I took a new sculpting class on Friday which was fabulous. I left feeling a little wobbly and I knew the next day, I would be feeling it but not like this. Anyhow, it's been two full days of it getting worse but right at this moment, I can tell it is on the mend....until next class! What do they say...no pain, no gain! Somehow, I don't think they mean pulling muscles.






Saturday, we spent a couple of hours down at Bowmanville Creek. We always like to go down at this time of year to watch the fish (salmon and trout) jump the dam as they head upstream to spawn. I've attached a couple photos from the day. Unfortunately, we were a little late this year and only spotted a couple fish swimming through the creek and only one trying to jump....but it was fun nonetheless.






I mentioned earlier that Shane picked up a cold....and well that cold must have been bothering him throughout the night because I think he was up and crying almost every hour....UGH! Poor Johnathon whose alarm goes off every morning at 430!! (Ya, I'm not going to be loving that when I return to work..hehe). He is going to struggle today for sure.




Well, I shall be off for now....all this time spent outdoors has left the housework waiting.
