Another Cold Day

I had good intentions to go to HomeOutifitters today but decided to stay home. I'll maybe go tomorrow. I'm looking for a cabinet for our DVD, receiver and bell receiver. That one part of the room is ugly and driving me crazy. Hopefully next time Dave is off my uncle can come over to help finish the baseboards. We did however managed to hang a couple of pics of the pets. The location is a secret. Just kidding. Dave hung them up in the kitchen. I think they look great there. We will also be hanging our engagement pic and Alex's side by side. The location is unknown at this time. I managed to get another fire going:) Should be warm and cozy in here really soon. I'm amazed at how fast the fire place heats up down here. The fireplace doesn't even have a fan to circulate the heat. Well That's all for now

Has anyone received there pics yet?

I Did Good

After a couple of hours of freezing downstairs I decided to build a fire. I managed to get one going. A really good one. I hope I can keep it going. Alex is sleeping on the sofa. She's so adorable. Everyone should get there pics soon. Let me know when you get them

Who Does she Look Like?

The last couple of days I came to the conclusion that Alex does look like her dad. I've always hope that if I ever had a daughter she would look like me. No offence Dave. Today I was talking to my mom and she told me that her cousin said to her that Alex looks like my grandpapa(my mom's dad). I was almost in tears. I've been thinking about him lately. I know that if he was alive today he would be the best great-grandpa to her. It's amazing that such a small person can look like so many people. It's also comforting knowing that maybe she looks a little like him and that if I close my eyes for a few seconds and re-open them I can see him. I miss him dearly. I hope my mom can track down some baby pics of him, so I can compare. That's all for now

My Night

To answer Ann's question. My night was horrible. I don't like being home alone especially at night. I woke up at around 1am. I was facing the closet and I thought I could see someone in my closet so I yelled. Not that there was anybody home to protect me. I felt like a total dumb ass. I closed the closet door and hope that I did not wake Alex. We have a dog you would think he would of woken up when I screamed. NOT AT ALL> He didn't even make a noise. He's so useless. I wanted a dog to protect me when we were living in Northern Saskatchewan. He was somewhat protecting me there but here, I think he could care less.

Ann I'm totally with you on there new blog theory.

Alone

It looks like I will be alone tonight with Alex. I'm extremely scared. What if she wakes up and I can't calm her down. I have no one. If it was that bad I guess I could call my uncle. Dave will be away until late tomorrow night.

Today I went to Mississauga to visit my sister. She was getting some test results and wanted me there. I left home at 1:30 pm and was back by 10pm. That was my first trip from home without Dave. I took hyw 27 by doing that I avoided the 400 and 401. I don't think I will be doing that 1 hr trip for awhile. I was scared since the blazer is in need of a new bearing and it also started to shake. My dad ordered the bearing for us. He gets a really good deal. The part is normally 590$(midas) 390(part source) and I'm paying 175.45$. He will be shipping it to me on the bus. If I can only get him to fix it. Well I'm off to bed. Oh ya, the last 2 nights Alex slept all night:)

I was wondering if Gordon is walking yet?

3 Months Old

That's right Alex is now 3 months old and she is teething. She has been very cranky the last week. She has also decided that she no longer wants my breast. We are now almost completely feeding her formula. She will take the breast in the morning. I feel so rejected. I read that babies who teeth this early can reject the breast. I wonder why. She did however sleep through the night. She went to in her crib at 11pm and woke up at 7am. I enjoyed my sleep. I'm not certain she will do the same tonight since she has been crying since about 6pm and it's now 9:30pm. Alex didn't sleep much today so we are hoping that she is over tired. Well I should go and try and put her to bed.
