Happy Birthday Mom!!!!

I can't believe it's been almost 2 weeks since I last posted....sorry :o(

Let's see....what's been going on ....work....work....hmmm....work again...! :o) Last weekend I had my two nieces Nikki & Julie, ages 5 and 7, for a sleepover - we had a great time. I took them out to rent a couple of movies and then we came home and popped some popcorn and watched a movie, after the movie I had sparklers for them to light outside and then it was bed time. The next day we watched movie #2 and we were hoping to get out on the boat but it was too windy so we decided to forgo that idea. It was a low key weekend but we still had fun!

My Mom is on a trip of a lifetime - she left on August 11th for BC for 2 weeks with her best friend. They are staying with her best friends daughter....and let me tell you...she is getting spoiled rotten! I'm afraid she won't want to come back home...ha ha ha! She called me on Monday night to say that she got surprised with tickets to Las Vegas for the next few days - and for my Mom who loves the slot machines...this was a dream come true! She went to see Celine Dion on Wednesday night and then last night was going to a circus show...not sure which one. She'll be flying back this weekend to BC. I'm so happy for her as I'm sure she is having a blast! Mom, if you are reading this, I miss you, Love you and can't wait to see you next week! Happy Birthday!

This weekend we aren't up to much, I want to go over and visit my new niece Reece and get some baby snuggling time in....We saw her last night for my other nieces Birthday...Happy Birthday Isabel! but unfortunately you know how that goes...you've got to share the baby snuggles, so I'm going to be selfish and visit and hopefully I won't have to share! ha ha ha!

Well, that's about it - not much news about the adoption....early rumors are CCAA will get to Nov 29th...which I so hope as friends of ours (Scott & Jen) are logged in Nov 29th and I would love to see them get their referral! If this is the cut off then there would just be 6 days to our LID and then we could possibly be next....WOW! How exciting is that...and scary since we haven't even started her nursery yet.....I know, I know...but there's still some time left...albeit, not much! I'll post again when I have more news to share.

Take care,
Tracy

Madison is Finally HOME! said...

Ha ha ha....that is too funny Steph....Angela has in fact said she was going to come over and move all of Chris's stuff out of the room we are going to use for Madi....

I'm hoping that by mid September I'll be starting on her room, I've been collecting what I need, I just have to put it together, so it shouldn't be too bad :o)
