Tuesday

Hi everyone! Long time I know I know.. anyway, sorry I'm such a sporadic blogger. These days life is zooming past me and I haven't had a second to myself, let alone a moment to update one and all on the goings ons! Well, this weekend, super uneventful! We did some gardening.... I did a wickid kid'n'play haircut on our giant rosemary bush (think house party). Michael wrapped our passion fruit vine all around the pergola (take that Mr Reynolds) and Maeve watered everything that was in sight including the neighbours driveway! Madigan snoozed while we tended the garden as she is a menace to all things green/growing! Life is chugging along here pretty smoothly... well, as smoothly as missing three grand USD can be! Talk about nail biting! And the thing that sucks is we've had to do another wire!! hahahaha the bank dude assures me that it will go through this time! I say ya right but since I'm a sucker and we don't have someone to dump batches of money we'll have to stick to wires.. for whatever reason XE trade doesn't do UK! Bitches!!! So, today poor ole Madigan had an appointment for a meningitis poke.. jab or stick as they call it here. I gave the poor darling some tylenol before her appt and walked a block to the surgery (clinic). After we get there and wait we are seen by the nurse.. well darling Madigan is doing ok, Maeve has turned green and wont take her hands off her ears... Maeve is almost in a state of panic and no talk of pokes or pokers are visible. Poor Maeve, she is so empathetic. After talking to the nurse we discover that Madigan isn't actually old enough so today she shall go poke free!! I of course will go to jail for medicating her for no reason! hahah.. Maeve is now less green but we have to go back in 3 weeks to get the jab we didn't get today! Madigan and Maeve both continue to love music. The little piano that Auntie sara bough AGES ago is a top favorite. It plays lots of music but doesn't sing. One of the ones it does is "if you are happy and you know it". Whenever it comes on Madigan makes sure someone is looking at her before clapping along at the "clap your hands" part! Madigan also knows the actions to itsy bitsy, open shut them, 123... Madigan is doing more talking... hell if I know what she is saying but she does have quite a few actual words! Madigan is known around our neck of the woods for her fabulous knock knock jokes... the joke is she just keeps saying "knock, knock" while knocking with her hand.. and the funny part comes when you say, "who is there" and she will say knock knock forever! The great news is she never tires of it... we can go back and forth for hours!! hahahah she is funny that girl! Maeve is always in high heels now... in vancouver she wore them a bit (just the plastic dress uppy ones) but we had hardwood floors so they were a bit slippy.. well n ow we have carpet and she runs in them.... it is hilarious! Such an accomplished fashionista! Auntie Erin will be so proud!
