10 weeks old today!

Well, things are starting to get stressful around here (did you realize it is only 25 days until Christmas people! Yikes!!) as I try to start getting ready for Christmas. Yes, that's right...I said START! Hence the stress and freakin' out. I have been trying to shop like a maniac and am a little upset that other people have realized that it is time to shop as well....I usually don't have this problem until December, lol, but the stores here are INSANE!!! I am also having the "We are out of that" problem dammit! Hope every one's shopping goes better than mine currently is, lmao. Started the baking yesterday, got the first batch of Quiches done (have to do another as I guess you can't make them on a weekend and expect them to all hit the freezer, lol). Plan on making my fudge or butter tarts this week as well, not sure which yet. Cookies and more Quiche are next week, and that might be all, we will see. Kinda hard to bake some days as Tanaya is a time stealing monster, lol. Have the kids pictures all cut, dated and ready for me to start my cards. The ones to England have to be mailed like yesterday (the 2nd actually, lol) and the few announcements I did are still not complete, lol. Whatever.

Sean didn't get any other animals as of yet but has 1 week left of the season so we will see. He is still sooo hoping for an Elk. He is off to Fort Nelson tomorrow for work and it's an overnighter (I KNOW! You're thinking "What?!" Yep, I get a night to myself again after like 3 years. Whatever will I do?! Probably fall asleep, lol. What a waste)

Damian is trying out for the Basketball team at school today (I think) and is hoping to get on. He really likes Basketball and I've been encouraging him to try for the school teams since Grade 7. He doesn't play alot outside of school though so we will see. Still working and liking it.

Jasmine is getting more and more excited for grad by the day (what the hell am I in fir come March let alone May?! ROFLMAO) which we have just been informed is the last weekend in May (28th I think). Her school ring showed up in the mail Friday so she is slightly distracted by the bling right now, lol. Her friend in Cosmetology at school is highlighting her hair today so she will have a smashing new do after school, will try and get her to pose for a picture and show it off. Her boss told her that they have 3 late night shopping events for Christmas at the store and she is scheduled to work 2 of them. She looked at me and said " Sure hope I can stay awake Mom, you know I usually fall asleep before then." She has to work until 11 pm, lmao. Funny girl. Her and I are going in after school Thursday for her to start her Christmas shopping.

Tanaya is doing well. Has big trouble falling asleep on her own still, but had a couple really good naps yesterday thank goodness. No one likes a crabby over tired baby, lol, and most days for the last few weeks she needs help getting to sleep even for a nap (then wakes up after like 15 - 20 minutes and is crabby. Grr.) Her check up with the doctor last week was great. They all just keeping trying to swell my head with how beautiful she is and I just say Thank you and roll my eyes on the inside (I am sure they say that to everyone, lol). First set of shots was the day after and man was she pissed! Screamed blue murder for 7 minutes straight. Although, it might have been better if the nurse hadn't paused after the first 2 waiting for her to calm down before the third....I think that was a mistake, oh yes. A big one. LOL She weighed 11 lbs 3 oz, and has now outgrown all her newborn stuff....but still doesn't fit most of the 3 month stuff, lol. She is getting better at head control but still can't hold it up for too long at once. And she still smiles alot....that is it. That is the sum of what she can do, lol. Oh! I forgot. She can coo. OK. That's it, lol.

Well, I better get to crackin'. I have to get my third recipe done for the swap (need to mail them today) and have a scrap class tonight with a girlfriend. Figured a night out might be nice. Oh, and some scrap friends of mine just bought the local scrap store. Here's to wishing them the best of luck!! Can't wait to see what cool ideas they come up with.
