Morning time plans

A reminder......

We are moving on Saturday, which means that we may be off line for a few days in the setting up of the new place. There will be pictures of the new place as soon as we are online. I have even remembered to charge my camera.
We are almost finished packing, Tom is busy collapsing the table and I am about to collapse into bed ready to finish up tm evening, or sat morning. (we are helping friends move tm).
Heidi is much much better, and is beginning to love her antibiotics. She even managed a melt down when told she couldn't have any more the other day!

Mmmmn, you never know how good you have it, until it's gone. Baby sick days have gone forever, thrown out (no pun intended) by a very spectacular little girl amount of sick, and all over a freshly mopped floor. The silver lining was that it wasn't my floor :)
So the little one is poorly, and a trip to the doctor revealed what I suspected for a while, an ear infection, with the added discovery of bronchitis. The joys of free prescriptions for kids or even the flat fee is one I miss, but I hope she enjoys every drop of the antibiotics. If the performance at tea is anything to go by, she will be practicing her newly learned skill of spitting!!! The smell of bubble gum is overwhelming, but it has a gritty texture so I can't say I can blame her. And for those of you wondering what the connection between the ears, chest and throwing up is, apparently it's a combination of yoghurt and mucus...there we go, enough said!

Tom has spent the day in the mountains with work colleagues, and as I write has not made it home (it's 11pm). I guess they must of had fun.....or perhaps got lost. I have heard that they are on their way so am able to joke rather than worry. I bet he'll be stiff tomorrow, and not be that keen to take his turn at sick baby duty.....all the more cuddles for me then!

Changing times

The leaves are turning here, and the mountains have come back to us as snow covered peaks rather than the imposing grey ones of the summer months. It is kind of beautiful and yet I am beginning to dread the snow coming to the Prarie land. We were loaned a winter coat for Heidi today and boy does it look thick!

And...my little one is growing up. She helped me prepare supper tonight, standing on a chair at the work top pulling pieces of lettuce apart! Oh I miss my baby, but the little lady is very cute......almost extra cute!
