Today is Bizzy's birthday! My grandma (known as Bizzy to the kids) celebrates her 85th birthday today. We celebrated last night with dinner at my parents place. Mike and Mirella are visiting which is great! We have not seen Mirella since Christmas! The boys happily sang her "Happy Birthday" and then eagerly ate her birthday cake. My cousin Angela and her bf Neal will be heading to see Bizzy tomorrow to celebrate her birthday.
It was my dad's birthday on the 9th and even though we celebrated 4 days after the fact, it was still a great meal! We just did a low key BBQ at our place.
This weekend is my "Mommy time" weekend. I'm so stoked. I will be staying home by myself for the weekend and attending a Jack & Jill for Bill and Fisher on Saturday. I have an exciting day of cleaning, laundry and gardening and then I'll head out to meet Baby Sadie - our friend's Kevin & Melissa had a baby a week ago and I am going to meet the babe before heading to Port Perry. I will go to my parents place and meet Neal for the first time too - see if he passes the "cousin" test! LOL!! Cam is taking the computer and camera with him to the cottage this weekend so we will have new pictures to post after this weekend.
The boys are doing well. I've started my part time job now and I'm working Wed-Fri - it's awesome. We have started the routine of going to the Toronto Zoo on Monday's and then Charlie has soccer on Monday nights. It's been a slow start for the soccer player, but he gets easilhy frustrated. he is like his mommy and daddy - he expects to excel at everything the first time he does it and it's frustrating him that there is a learning curve!
Sammy is talking up a storm - he is already starting to put 3-4 words together - my current favorite saying "see ya later dudes" - he is a lover of "Finding Nemo" and that is a direct quote from Squirt the turtle! He's starting to assert some attitude and now had temper tantrums if things don't go his way. We are quickly trying to nip that in the bud - I can't stand the whining!
Charlie attended his Junior Kindergarten orientation night on June 2nd with mommy and daddy in tow. He was pretty shy at first (shocking - not) but once we got settled and he got a feel for the school he was pretty excited to be there. He met his teacher and actually talked to her. He is super shy around people and will often ignore them when they ask what his name is - however, Mrs. Reid (his teacher) managed to get his name from him and he even spoke to her! He was sad the next day that he had to go to daycare, he was all ready to start school the next day. I think he will enjoy going and I look forward to him learning new things!
So...I hope to have some new pictures for everyone next week - until then....Cheers!

Goofy grin - I could just eat his cheeks!
