Easter is quickly on it’s way and of course Emeraude’s Nursery School will be having a special day that week. At Christmas, Emeraude had wanted to make a pinata for her school’s Christmas party, we made a Santa head, it was great, alot of fun and learning in the process so we are [Read more]
Great morning with my girl. Happy to be getting our mornings back somewhat (result of solumedrol I think). We started out making ‘soup’ and recipes with the beads and too many bowls/ladels/potato masher lol and then switched to some bracelets. Emeraude began working on a necklace for [Read more]
After 2 hours of arguing with Dr.Crawford about increasing my pain meds, the discussion turned to Tuesday’s (tomorrow) appointment and that I was hoping to suggest giving my IV Solumedrol treatments again (they failed in January but that was a full 3 months ago and my body might have lost [Read more]
Some of the other seeds are finally coming up. The only ones still hiding are the parsnips. Wondering what to do about the ‘greenhouse’ lids with the peas touching the top, I don’t want her healthy sprouts to start leaning over but worry if I take it off the ones that still need [Read more]
Lloyd had rented the newest Star Wars flick to watch with his sister during the afternoon as he was still feeling fatigued from strep throatand wanted her to enjoy doing something out of the ordinary during the March Break. This got her to thinking about the light saber she had from Halloween [Read more]
Our sprouts are growing like crazy already! Emeraude was so excited this morning when after just 2 days (for some, 3 days for others) she already had some great sprouts coming up. So far radishes seem to be the fatest growing by far, there are also some broccoli coming up as well as some peas. [Read more]
Well, Emeraude & I went sliding again today. It was AWESOME! So warm out we had a ton of fun (+ 1 crash which I survived suprisingly well lol). Lloyd is still sick, this morning it almost seemed like he was still getting worse which was really worrysome. I’m still not feeling very [Read more]
I had gone for my pain meds about an hour and a half earlier and was in pretty good shape so Emeraude & I went to the hill at Friends (bakery/coffeshop) and had a blast. It was so warm out I didn’t even need gloves, she was in a super sliding mood and had me [Read more]
Emeraude & I began our gardening today (March 16,09). Last year we started all the veggies & flowers early indoors as well but I got over eager and we transplanted them outside too early – they froze and her beautiful healthy plants were mostly demolished (check my facebook page or [Read more]
I was inspired this Friday morning when picking up Emeraude from Nursery School to attempt this craft. Nikki, her N.School teacher was kind enough to spare some blue cellophane which really is a nice touch. Emeraude had made other water themed crafts at school that morning which included a sensory [Read more]
Monday I decided to keep it simple. Lloyd was nice enough to realize we were loosing our day and after badminton he became a chef. When we came in from collecting our snow and before starting our experiments we were able to sit down at the table as Lloyd had even set the table perfectly in [Read more]
Emeraude has become quite fond lately, of striking a pose as she likes then to immediately have me show her the photos and see what feeling so fun looks like. I wanted to post these because sometimes, I can be having a tough day and, if Lloyd is at school and Emeraude is napping, I can [Read more]
Emeraude is resting for 1/2 hour to give me a chance to build up a little energy… It’s a really bad day, more fatigue than I have dealt with in a long time, I think there may be stress factors contributing to this situation, hopefully some fresh air fun with my girl will help with [Read more]
Sunday, March 8th, was a beautiful day and I intended to take advantage of it and did! It took most of the day to get to the fun outside part but towards the end of the afternoon (after groceries and the hospital of course – more painwere finally on our way out into the snow. Lloyd [Read more]
Last Tuesday, I had some chores to do before supper and suggested to Emeraude & Lloyd they read a book together. They found a nice book which included stickers to add to each page. The stickers were not numbered in any way so after Lloyd read the page, Emeraude would be challenged to decide [Read more]
