What an amazing little boy

Yesterday Nathan really wanted to go for a walk but big mom and I told him to go get dressed and we'll go for a walk. Then he informed us he wanted to go to Grandma and Papa's house on his walk. So I added a map from our house to there place. Our place is Point A and there place is Point B. Which for a walk like that is no big for Nathan anyways who walks 3hrs almost everyday rain or shine with his day home.

This map here is the walk that they did on Friday and they were gone for 3 hrs. walking stopped for a small snack and continued for home they couldn't even go to the park it was like a lake with all the water there. Can we say Strong legs? I wish I had that much energy to walk for 3hrs non stop except for a small snack which is eaten while walking. What an amazing guy and all for the kids that do this in the morning, even Ryan is now out of the stroller and doing this kind of a hike and he is only 1.5 years old and potty trained to hold it until they get home. Funny thing when he gets home he is not even the least bit tired, he still goes to bed at 8pm so how cool is that..?

Walk start point is at Point A, to Point B then back to Point A. To make it even harder for them they don't take the main roads because it is to dangerous. They take all the small streets.

A Bunch of Everything

This blog will have a bunch of everything in it. First off Krista mom did try to acknowledge your 6Th Happy to be alive day but it didn't seem to turn out that way.. sorry..
Secondly Zach saw the first robin of the year this morning outside his bedroom window. Yahoos spring is now here in the G.T.A..
Thirdly Phoenix is almost crawling, he can get his butt up in the air and knees under him but that's about it.
Fourthly kids say the damn est thing. The other day Zach came out of the bathroom with all the toothbrushes and informed me that I have to throw them all out. So I asked him why? he told me that there were hundreds of thousands of germs on them and when we brush our teeth we are putting them all in our mouths and making our mouths dirty not clean. One word Zach YUCK. The TV was on woman's channel and there a commercial for how clean is my house and that is what they were saying so, like everyone has always said about him. he is a sponge and is too damn smart for his own good.
Fifthly Nathan is just so darn cute.. He hasn't done anything out of the ordinary or strange or said anything new so I had to but something.. He is so darn cute. and that is about all for now.
Later

Lifeless

Down 2lbs and 8 to go in a month I think I can do it.
I READ A MESSAGE TODAY IN A REAL MAGAZINE THAT SAID BLOGGS DO NOT LIVE IN THIS REALITY BUT ONLY IN A VIRTUAL ONE AND ARE LONEY,PEOPLE WITH NO LIFE SO IF WE HAVE NO LIFE THEN HOW CAN WE WRITE ABOUT OUR DAY AND LET ALL OUT BLOGGER FRIENDS KNOW WHAT WE ARE UP TO???? HELLO!! LIKE REALLY!!

Anyways today was uneventful day. Come to think of it I really don't have a life. My life consists of going to school coming home to tidy back to school come home finish cleaning and then back to school again, yep no life at all for me. Tonight Eddie has heading out to lodge for a few hours I'm hoping 8 o'clock comes very quickly so they can go to bed.
Phoenix is heading to bed in a few minutes, he has been clingy today and Zach has been crying all day as well.. I'm ready for a big long holiday without kids.. So I guess the magazine article was totally about me.. Anyways bedtime is now here have to take Phoenix back to the doctors tomorrow for his lungs again I'll let you all know how that went talk to you all later

On the right path

I'm on the road for weight loss. Going to the gym and eating healthy. In a few weeks I'm going to Eddie's Lodges Ladies Night 2 in 2 weeks. I am not expecting to lose the whole 59 lbs in just 4 weeks but I can lose at least 10 or so. So I thought I would put a ticker on so Krista, Hike and whoever is interested can see how good I'm doing. So Wish me luck..

I almost Peed

Tonight me and mom went to the movies to see Wild Hogs the one with Tim Allen , Martin Lawrence, William H Macy, and John Travolta all playing bikers, well I really don't want tell you much about it because I really do want you all to go and watch it, but I did want to let you all know how funny it is and I don't mean one little laugh here and there brought in by a laughing computer either it was so funny I almost peed my pants right then and there and the movie wasn't even half over. So I think you all might really enjoy it.. mom thinks Uncle Joe would love it so all of you check it out if you have the chance and tell me what you think of it. Also Ghost rider with Nicolas Cage was really good as well, Eddie and I saw it a few weeks ago. So there it id folks 2 really good movies that are fun for the whole family.. Well almost the whole family I would bring Zach & Nathan to see Wild Hogs and I'm sure they both would have been on the floor with laughter..Anyways I'm getting tired it is late here and Phoenix will be up soon for a bottle or suckie so take care and have a good night.. Oh Hike I think you might like Ghost Rider if you want to see a good one.. NIGHT

Is it fixed yet... let me know

Ok so I fiddled a bit with the templates and now I think it looks ok except for the fact that I didn't want it green I wanted it blue to match the new words on top. I was trying for a new hipper look... since I'm not getting any younger might as well have my blog look younger. Also during the whole new "face lift" I some how wiped out the boys birthday tickers. Oh well not much I could do anyways to fix all that.. Your all probably wondering why am I doing all new things to my blog, right? Well Eddie niece was here one day and she was working on her my space account and had some cool looking things going on so I thought I would watch her do it and asked if any of the things can be added to my blog, she said yes so that is why I'm trying something new.. cause I Can..
So thank you all for you help on my blog with your advice if it still doesn't look like it should please please please let me know so I can try and fix it all over again..
Thanks

I thought I would do something different for my blog I would like to change the back ground but I'm having trouble doing so. So if anyone can help with the whole new look like a new background and all my info up where it belongs not down at the bottom so if anyone can help I'll tell you all my passwords and access codes, what nots. So please can someone help me??? Thanks

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BABY BOY

HAPPY 7th BIRTHDAY ZACH

ZACH JUST A FEW MINTUES OLD

It feels like yesterday when he was this small but today Zach turned 7 years old.

I was going to but a bunch of pics of him on here but couldn'tfind them all right now. But this is one of my favs of him. He was so tiny and now he is getting so big. I could hardly pick him up today to give him a hug. He had a good birthday he has his birthday waffles(didn't have time to make birthday pancakes) with a candle in them, all of his friedns told him Happy Birthday including Nathan who had a bit of trouble but managed. The school announced it over the P.A in the morning at school, which he was quite excited about. Although he didn't get to have 2 birthday cakes like Nana go he did get to have his sticky buns that he loves so much so alls good for him.. Daddy even let him stay up a bit later then the usually 8 Zero Zero. So all in all today was a happy day and tomorrow is his party so I'll let you all know about it then. But for now Good Night I'm tired.

Blog Etiquette

We all know how to blog... At least we think we do. Here is a list of Blog Etiquette

Blogging has become extremely popular lately, to the point that now big corporations have considered having Corporate Blogs.
And yes, there is etiquette for blogs too.
Here are some essentials:

1) A blog is like a diary, but public. Once posted is for the world to read it. Write accordingly. Keep in mind that is not for your eyes only. Be especially careful when you write on a corporate blog.

2) Write content that is not just about you, but something that gives benefits to your readers.

3) When you post on somebody else’s blog, write something of value. If you disagree with the blogger’s point of view, say why and the solution you propose.

4) When you write, either on your own blog or on other’s blog, keep in mind that your personality and your reputation are reflected in your words. You decide what is going to be.

5) When someone makes a good comment about your blog, acknowledge it and be thankful. Courtesy will always speak well about you.

6) If you post and you want anonymity, don’t make any references that might indicate who is posting.

7) Not everybody has broadband. If you want your blog to be read by as many people as possible, keep your graphics to a minimum.

8) Be consistent with your posts. Don’t post every month and then suddenly post many messages. Choose your own pace and keep it. This way your readers will know when to visit your blog for new information.

9) Include RSS feeds in your blog. More and more people are using it and your readers will not be frustrated for your lack of RSS feeds.

10) Be clear and specific in the description of the links on your blog. Tell your visitors where you are sending them.

Blogging is here to stay. Make the best of it for you, but especially for your readers.
Thank you to http://www.practicaletiquette.com/blog-etiquette.html for putting this on there website I hope we can all learn how to Blog properly

Zach's song list

Zach is a music feen. He's just as good as his mommy when it comes to remembering songs that are played on the radio. Ok so he doesn't know the whole song but he does know the main verse which is pretty goo d for being only 6 years and 359 days old. ( he is not 7 until he actually hits the 7 mark). So here is the list of songs that he knows and is pretty good at belting them out.

1, Everyone Cares---Nickleback
2, Catch my Disease---Ben Lee
3, I like to Move it---Madagascar soundtrack
4, The Sweet Escape- Gwen Stafani
5, Far Away--- Nickleback

I think the list may go on a bit longer but i really can't think of them to well tonight, but he just learned the Nickleback one today, after we hear it on the radio a few times.. The way for him to get to know the song he has to see the video if you don't show him the video then he is totally lost. He doesn't like Everyone Cares Video it is just to much for a little boy to grasp no matter how hard I try and explain it to him... So how many of you actually know these songs or just the verse to them, with out looking them up???
Good luck on that Challenge.

ICE STORM OF 2007

O.k. so when we were kids if School buses were cancelled we would be very excited right? Well not to many kids at Zach's school takes the school bus they do take the bus or have to walk(we walk),today all of Toronto's School buses are cancelled and I told Zach that there is no way in HECK I'm going out in this. Anyone Remember the ICE STORM of 199? I can't remember but it was pretty bad, the plus side this time is that there is power and running water so we can shower, flush the toilet and what not, and we have heat so all is good. Just very slippery out and when the slow plow went by the throw a huge chunk of snowy ice right behind the van and Eddie was just telling me now that he can't ever move it or chop it up because it is now solid ice. Zach has been home for the last 2 days because he was sick, he was excited about going to school today I told him NO SCHOOL TODAY!!! YEAH!!!! He cried and cried and cried. Then I told him that his play date for tomorrow has been cancelled as well he cried even more( but it is not weather related, the boys mom had her baby yesterday morning). So today Zach is having a bad day, so if anyone wants to put a cheer up Zach comment for him I'll pass the message on to him. Hope you are all warm and staying dry
