Busy, busy, busy!!!

Life has been pretty busy lately, so I apologize for my long delays between new posts! Colby did have his 6 month check-up on Monday, June 9th and he is doing great. On their scale, he was 19 lbs. 3 oz. (75th %ile) and 28" (90th %ile). He is pretty tall for his age and is catching up to his cousin, Landon, very quickly in both weight and height!! Colby did great at his 6 month needles on Tuesday, June 10th... best ones yet! We had a really great Public Health Nurse! He only cried for about 3 seconds after and then he was fine!! He was pretty sleepy the next day and napped a lot during the day. He is now eating a snack in the afternoons that consists of water and Baby Mum Mum's. He wasn't such a fan of the Mum Mum's at first, but now he's liking them more and more. He drinks so great out of both a sippy cup and a regular cup. Not too much spilling!! Colby sure wants to be on the move!! He does not enjoy being on his back anymore and instantly rolls onto his stomach. He tries reaching for toys and wants to move to get them, but hasn't quite mastered the whole crawling thing just yet! Maybe soon... Daddy and Mommy keep trying to 'teach' him to crawl... we'll see how soon he's on the move!

We went camping at Pembina Provincial Park on June 13-15 with the Schram and McCracken families. It was such a fun weekend and was great to get out and use the trailer again. We grew up and were very close with our three cousins (who are very similar in ages to my sisters and I), so it's always fun to get together! Last week was very busy preparing for the wedding this past weekend. I feel like I wasn't home much past Wednesday! The spa was great with the girls, rehearsal and dinner were wonderful, and the wedding was fantastic! Jen and Dave Panteluk were married on Saturday, June 21st at Shalom Park. The weather was amazing and the site, ceremony, and reception were beautiful! Great time had by everyone!!

Yesterday (Monday, June 23rd), I had an interview for a new position at Forest Green School in Stony Plain. I thought it went fairly well and apparently it did, because I was offered the job yesterday afternoon!!!! I am so excited to move to a closer school 5 minutes from our house!! Although it means going back to work much earlier than originally planned, I think it's for the best to make the move to Stony Plain. I'm really going to miss the students and staff at Entwistle School though. I had a great couple of years out there and will really miss everyone. A very exciting time, but also sad too.

I'm trying to stay home a little more this week in order to get caught up on housework and cleaning. With the craziness of last week and the weekend, I want to try and get back to some semblance of 'normal', including naps and playing at home with Colby. Hope everyone is having a great week and talk to you soon!

Love,
Lesley
