April Update
I usually only update the blog when I have photos to share however, it's been a couple months with no update so I figured it was time. We have been busy but no photographic proof (yet). We have been packing and purging our house for sale! Fun times! There are some projects that Cam has to get done before we can list (privately) but we are hoping for a May 1st open house! My mom is going to help me stage - she is fabulous with that stuff - not really my forte. I've been purging for the past couple months and I can not believe how much junk we have aquired over the last 4.5 years. I've taken 6 trunk loads to Value Village in the last 2 months - I think they are going to black list me soon...bringing way too much stuff!
We are purchasing my parents house in Port Perry and we are very excited to be in a bigger house with more property - the kids like the extra room to run around and with a large backyard, we won't worry so much about traffic, etc. My parents bought a place in Florida so they will be around half of the year and will live in the addition with Bizzy! We will be 1.5 hours away from the cottage which is another bonus - I think I will be more likely to scoot up for a day or two being that close!
The kids are growing like weeds (which is a good thing). Charlie is over half way through JK and he is doing well - he seems to really like his teacher and he has learned so much - printing, reading, counting, etc. Amazing really! He is registered to go to Prince Albert Public School in September - that is where I went to school - kinda neat! Sam is 2.5 and talking up a storm - he's really starting to assert himself more - letting us know how he feels. He has a temper but he is very affectionate and seeks it.
Cam has been busy and is now working at Darlington site for a month doing some cross-training and bench-marking. I think he is enjoying it - he's only been there a week and has been sick as a dog since he started. He has been smacked with every bug that has come through our house this winter. I guess working part time has exposed me more to the bugs - I haven't been sick (knock on wood)! My part time contract has been extended another year! I'm so excited! I will continue working part time until May of 2012. Sam will start JK 5 months later so I'm glad that I will have been able to spend extra time with the boys before they both get wrapped up in school.
