1000 minutes

Well I never really thought it was possible... but I managed to wrangle over 1000 minutes of my mother's time last month. We just got our phone bill and for the first time ever I managed to surpass the 1000 free international call limit! All I can say is that my mother is truly an angel for putting up with me wingeing down the phone about all the things that ail me on any given day.

The Canadian Embassy wrote today to say that the passport application for the wee sprog has finally been accepted and that it was now being sent off to be processed in Canada... They quote a waiting period of 3 weeks from this point... Feels like forever away but at the speed with which time is passing these days I am sure it will fly by.

Tomorrow I've got a full day of running around to collect all my tax receipts from my employers last year in order to submit them to my accountant who will then do my tax return for me... I'm half dreading this as I am pretty much thinking that I will have to pay them this year... I really hope this is not the case but hey... bring it on. Don't you just love tax season?

The bottle battle continues and I am still litterally attached to the wee one all day long... I don't know how much longer I can handle as nothing seems to be working and I fear losing the plot completely if I can not be on my own for more than an hour without having to feed her... I guess we've had it pretty good up until now as she has note fussed much and has been sleeping through the night for over a month now... for this we are truly greatful...

Foots!

Someone was following in the footsteps (literally) of little miss Isabella and experienced their first 'feet in the grass' experience this past weekend. Admittedly there wasn't much of a reaction, she kind of looked at us like it was just another one of the insane things that we her parents put her through... sigh... ah well we've got the moment documented and perhaps it will mean something to her later on in life... Next first experience... the sand on the beach and then on to the sea for a dip!


hmm not so sure about this...


Dad and the girls... someone is about to blub... check out the bottom lip! (priceless)
