First May Long as a Mommy :)

So it's been a busy busy weekend!  Friday morning, bright and early, Chris and I started planting our garden.  FIVE hours and 26 types of vegetables later.....we were finished!  And I've never been so sore or done so many squats in my life!  Okay maybe the week before when i painted the basement.  But I don't suggest planting a garden with a three month old strapped on your front!

We continued the weekend by driving to Wakaw to spend the night with my parents.  We pitched our brand new tent next to my parents trailer, set up our new air mattress and sleeping bags and that only took ~10 mins....wow how camping apparatus has changed, and improved!!!  It was great!  The three of us spent the night in the tent, yes we tented with a three month old, and still stuck with the cloth diapers.  He was great, wouldn't sleep in his bed, but the moment his head laid down on my chest he was out!  You've gotta do what you've gotta do! Lol.  The next morning take down of our campsite was just as easy as set up, still unbelievable!  We jumped in the jeep and drove back to Rosthern.  Unpacked, repacked, nursed and we were off again!  This time to Pike Lake to see Chris' parents and family.  We spent a couple hours and had an early supper.  By this point we were both exhausted and nursing sunburns.  A quick drive back to Rosthern and we hunkered in for that evening and the entire next day.  We did NOTHING on the holiday Monday.  Watched a couple movies and that's about it.

Tuesday we spent, and spent....lol... meaning whenever Chris is off we tend to spend money.  This is what happens when a couple buys a house and has nothing to fill it with.  The only thing we have an abundance of is water glasses.  Some women buy shoes or purses, I buy glassware.  So this week we purchased a bed for our guest room.  Since we think we are having guests this weekend, it was kinda a race to get the guest room finished!  So hopefully Josh and Brit like it!

Chris picked up a night shift for tomorrow night so I'm hoping to get a couple last minute things done around here while he's at work....but we'll see if Reid agrees :)

We'll also have to remind Josh and Brit that last May when Chris and I went to visit them in Yorkton we had a wonderful time.....so wonderful that coincidentally Reid showed up 9 months later!!  Well it's May and they are coming to visit us, so we'll have to see if Reid has a friend come next February??
