Open House #2.....

Ok, so its still early to be panicking - its only been a week, and this is only our second open house, but I am sure any mother out there knows how %$&^#)#@* hard it is to keep your house clean for an hour, let alone an entire week/weeks/month or however long its going to take to sell this house. Arg. I think I have emotionally checked out of this house and am excited and ready to move so keep your fingers crossed for us for an offer soon!

Anyways, on a lighter note - Jasper is quickly approaching the 11 month mark. He is over 24 pounds and is such a little troublemaker! He is curious about everything, especially things he is not supposed to touch (hello breakables, cleaning products, alcohol, coffee, toilet paper etc). He has also recently discovered the joy of climbing the stiars, and now with the baby gate down, its the only exercise that I get!

 

Open da House

Yikes. We are getting ready for our 1st (and hopefully only) Open House this weekend. All of those little pesky odd-jobs and to-dos that Aaron and I let slide by for the past year are suddenly catching up with us. Anyways, wish us luck - we hope we receive an offer Sunday night so we can pack up and head over to nuevo casa nielsen by the end of May!

A birthday and a birthday and a birthday!

First off, I am pleased as punch to introduce little Savannah Skye Roberts, born April 5th in Scotland - another girlfriend for Jasper, and a sassy foreign lass at that. Congrats to Feathers and Dob - love and kisses to the entire clan!

As much as I don't want to mention it, I might have had another birthday on the weekend...celebrated with much cake, carbs, and a facial - bliss!

A wee bit early for this one, but happy 1st birthday to our little niece Princess Paigey - Jasper and I are looking forward to partay-ing down this weekend with you!

Nuevo Casa Nielsen - Coming Soon!

Well, this is probably as much of a shock to us as it will be to everyone who reads this but it looks like JAC is moving to North Van! Jasper saw a lovely house a few weeks ago and decided that is where he wants to live so we had no choice but to listen. Now, the work begins on selling the existing casa nielsen...gulp!
If all goes well, we should be in the new house by the end of May...just in time for Jasper's first birthday - stay tuned for party invites! : )

Happy 3rd Birthday Cousin Logan!

Happy 3rd birthday Logan - JAC loves you! MWOAH (big kiss)

There once was a boy in a pale blue coat yodel-ley-hee-hooooooo!

Jasper and I just got back from a 5 day jaunt to the Island. Unfortunately I spent most of the time there laid out with a nasty cold, so much thanks to Grandma for looking after both of us so well!

Jasper loved chaseing the "ah-t" (aka Sullivan) around the house for a few days, so to give Sully a break we took Jasper to the Beacon Hill Petting zoo. Spring time means baby goat bonanza time, and the great thing about baby goats is they seemingly have no fear, especially when it comes to a bunch of screaming babies and toddlers grabbing and poking them! Coincedentally, we ran into Lynelle, Patrick and Sophia at the petting zoo as well - I guess great minds think alike non? : )

Long gone are the days when the old gang would get together in Victoria at the pub for a pint or two or three - these days its coffee and low-fat muffins and a playdate at Lisa's house!

Saturday was baby Hannah's shower at Jen's mom's house. Hannah is already 7 weeks old and is the spitting image of her daddy (isn't that always the case!). I can't believe how fast time is flying by...Jasper just turned 10 months old last week as well...egad!
