We have a 10 yr old in da house!!!

Yesterday was a fun day, we celebrated our one and only son with a few gifts, his choice for supper (hot dogs and ceaser salad, BBQed of course) And we had ice cream cake, and then we played Wii for a few hours!! Fun times! He loves his birthday presents, and he also lost a tooth right before bed, so bonus, he got $7 bucks for that, 2 bucks for it being a molar, and 5 for it being his birthday!!! Fun times were had by all yesterday. FUN FACT: For a month and a half we have all even aged children, 12, 10, 8 and 6. In march 8 turns 9, and in April 6 turns 7. But in December, 12 turns 13!!!!! CRAZY!!! There will be a teenager among us. I am excited and scared all at once!! That means I am getting older.....I will be 33 in April. As that number gets higher, I feel anxious. As the number of gray hairs that emerge get higher, I freak!! I don't want to go gray yet. Do I keep colouring now for the rest of my life, or do I let it go? People would always then think I was older than I really am. I still feel young, I still, most days, feel like I am in my 20's. I however, look in the mirror and am reminded that I am not in my 20's.

So, in other news, still no job!! However, he is currently taking a typing speed test right beside me for a job that he got called for yesterday. He has to submit his University transcripts, and a typing speed test, only one problem, he's trying to take the test on a laptop....it sounds like its proving to be difficult...Last time he took the typing speed test he had a 45wpm score...he sounds frustrated right now.....only time will tell.

We were going to have a birthday party for said son on Sunday, but mother nature had different plans!! We got a dumping of snow Saturday and Sunday, and we had to cancel due to blizzard conditions!! Crazy, when just 2 weeks ago we were enjoying + temperatures!! We rescheduled his party, I hope it works out for him, he will be so sad if people can't make it again. We got to see some amazing snow drifts though, too fun!!

Pictures to come when I can get them uploaded from my camera!!

We have even numbers until May, when Liam turns 5 and then they all turn a little 'odd' (teehee) in August & October. I love my ages though cuz I can just say 2,4,6,8 very easily!

Happy Birthday Noah!

I have the exact same wonderings about my hair. I seriously am struggling to find the right answer about it!
