Today I Post

Today My Bean is Five Months Old!

Well it has been a while since the last post... so I will do a little recap on life!

This is a non-Sophia related story... but over a month ago I decided that I probably would not be able to continue to work in Vancouver, because of my family. So I opened up shop... and am now a small business owner. I started up CCSR INTERIOR DESIGN which you can check out at CCSRDESIGN.CA.  It was a really neat going through the "business set-up" process again, after being so long since Red Line started up. But, here's to being hopeful about having a home-based business that is family friendly!

So Sophia had her Four month shots, and I have to say that this time was easier than the last! It was still a little traumatic (says the mom who got her daughter's ear pierced) but she was amazing! It's really hard to watch her cry out of pain like that, but after five minutes all was forgotten and she is safe from those diseases! We weighed her and measured her and she was almost 14lbs and 26" tall! She has grown so much!

This past week has been really difficult for Megan & Joe Green. Their little baby Deacon had to be hospitalized due to the flu. Because Deacon is a Hershprungs baby (spelling?) he has problems with dehydration, so a normal flu can really set some health issues into motion. He was on an IV and was in Children's hospital for three nights. He is an incredible little baby and is such a trooper. One night, he actually gained 400 grams... and is now doing so much better! Megan stayed in with him the entire time and was doing everything she could to help him. During this time, Riley came for a sleep over at Uncle Mamu's house... he was such a good boy and it was nice to spend time with him... if only it had been under better circumstances.

At the end of last week it was Sister Sara's surprise birthday party! It was pretty funny... because I think in everyone planning this party.. everything that could have happened,  happened... like a Tree falling on power lines an hour before the party started... this then had traffic to our house diverted and had our power out! But the night was still a success and we all got to celebrate beautiful Sara and her 30th birthday!

The most excited news of MARCH.... 

My bestie NICOLE is PREGNANT!!! I don't think I could be more happy for anyone! They are expecting in late September.... which in a recent poll happens to be the most challenging month to be expecting in... but she is amazing and will prove that stat wrong by being Fabulous Nicole through the entire thing!!!! Wink to you Nic! I am really thrilled and am hoping for a BABY not a goat/man... so that Sophia and Baby Tumnus will be besties for many years to come! Wooo hoo Nicole, you are going to be the best Mummy ever! Love ya!

Well Sophia is finally sleeping her afternoon nap, so I'd better get a move on dinner and get ready for my Cardio Core Bootcamp class tonight! O and I almost forgot...

I am motivated once again to start being really good at Weight Watchers. I thought... what better way to do this than by advertising my weight so that others can keep me accountable to! The more pressure the better! So last week I was up two pounds and was at:

158.2

So this week I'd better be less...
