194 days until...

CHRISTMAS!! Haha, I was just thinking that wow, June is a half over and so is the year 2009! And again I can't keep this crazy blog updated.

Well, I don't even know where to begin - I can't even remember half the stuff that went on in end of April/May...let's see

Health-wise: Again the household has been suffering from cold after cold. Jonas even had antibiotics to take for an ear infection and right now he has this crazy rash, which the doctor says is a reaction from his antibiotics (which he finished a week ago so I don't get it, but then again I'm no doctor). And to make matters worse, Jonas is getting his 2 bottom eye teeth (yep both at the same time) so he has been cranky!

Fitness-wise: I've been enjoying outdoor soccer and have even managed to score a few goals. Though I wish that I would have learned to play soccer when I was young. I am running quite frequently (but still not enough)! My next 'race' is a 10K run to Uncover the Cure on June 20th. Donate to the cause at: http://ed09.uncoverthecure.org/site/PageServer?pagename=ed09_homepage


On the Home-Front: I think ever since we bought our little townhouse, we've been doing work to it. This past month or so, we put in new laminate flooring on the main floor and all new windows were installed. The place is starting to feel more comfortable and it is a bit more up-to-date. We thought about upgrading to a house, being that the interest rates are so low but right now we just can't make the move.

Work Life: My job is going well - summer and fall are always busy with construction projects. As for Cory he is switching jobs on Monday. He will be working at Scottsford (Ft. Sask). which sucks cause he has to leave so damn early and then he gets home so late, but I guess it is not Ft. Mac!

What's new: The most exciting news over the last month or so is the addition of baby Genesis Faith to the Gooch family. My baby neice is so cute! Big brother Zech seems to be handling his new role rather well!
Sweet Baby Genesis, born June 5 @ 1:45pm, 9lbs. 9oz, 21.75 inches long. She is so gorgeous!
Jonas didn't seem to notice his new cousin when he first met her. Then the 2nd day he saw her and I was holding her, Jonas started whining and wanted me to hold him (jealous perhaps)!

And my baby boy has sure grown - I'm amazed as to how much they do grow in such little time!
Putting the house back together after getting the new flooring. Jonas thought it was pretty neat to be able to go behind the entertainment unit!

A visit with grandma, great grandma and great grandpa. This was a couple days before my grandpa passed away. Jonas didn't get a picture with great grandpa because he was sleeping and only woke briefly to acknowledge that we were there. I think it was grandpa's goodbye!

This was when Jonas loved baths and drinking the water - now it is a struggle to get him in the bath (so we've been showering him lately).

A cute bedtime picture - I love his facial expression!

Visting Cory's family. These are all of Cory's Grandma Hazel's great grandkids (so Jonas' 2nd cousins, I think). Jaycee holding Ryker, William (standing), and then Riley and Jonas in the wagon.

This is where we put Jonas when he is bad - in the dog cage!! Haha! Actually, we were camping at High River (while visiting Cory's family) and Jonas loved crawling in Koba's dog cage so of course I took the opportunity to take a picture!

Calgary Zoo with dad!

Calgary Zoo with mom. The zoo is amazing but we were only there for about 2.5 hours and then Jonas needed to eat and sleep!

Until next time....cheers!
