This week in pics

Thursday after school Owen decided it was hot enough to
play in the sprinkler. I almost joined him to get some relief
from the heat and swelling of my feet!

We've suspected a bat hangs out in our
front entrance for a while now,.
I finally have the proof

Got these two chartreuse bleeding hearts planted
in front of the shed this weekend

Our deck is all ready for the summer and we have been enjoying it so much

Owen asked if we could have dinner outside
tonight, what a great idea

My first harvest ever of the rhubarb planted last year, I'm so excited

Updates!

Here's a brief update of what's been going on here lately. I have taken very few pictures for how busy we've been so these will have to do!

Mother's Day and Owen insisted he was going to
make me breakfast. Croissants with jam, strawberries
and a latte.

We even had a little picnic in the living room

I got to relax while Owen played quietly. I wish every
morning was this relaxing

My parents came down the following weekend, the
weather was perfect so we all enjoyed
dinner on the new deck

Ice cream sandwiches and cuddles with Grandpa

It was my Dad's 70th and we were all able to get
together to celebrate. Unfortunately this is the only
pic as we were making pizzas and having a great
time all together

The Victoria Day holiday was spent with
friends, enjoying a bbq,

sparklers

and fireworks of course!

Owen was up until 10pm and loved
every minute of it

Pic Update

I've been so incredibly exhausted since getting pregnant and am finding it difficult to keep updates on this blog. I am home today as Owen has a fever so am taking the opportunity to get a post in! Here's an update over the past couple of weeks.

Baby bump at 20 weeks, halfway!! 

Our deck was in need of some tlc but after a closer
inspection Rob decided that replacing all the boards
was a better option as they were all starting to rot

The other side

Railing removed and new boards starting to go on

Other side

Almost finished

Just a couple more to go!!

Today's bump at 22.5 weeks

Four!!

I thought I had posted this a couple of weeks ago, obviously not. My exhaustion has not lightened up and by 7pm I am ready for bed! Here's a late birthday post.
Monday the 18th was officially Owen's birthday so we celebrated on the Sunday with a simple yet perfect party. Leanne, Jamie and Grand Dad Fletcher joined us for a BBQ in the afternoon on a perfectly sunny spring day. Rob got the patio furniture out and we fired up the BBQ and enjoyed the day together.

Early morning excitement, already dressed for
his Pirate Party

You can never have enough balloons

Owen was eager to help decorate for his party

Of course Pirate cupcakes. He was very particular
about how I applied the icing and
decorations. Too cute

After everyone had left it was time to chill on the sofa
