I am starting another course today, Patient Preparation. I am honestly not excited at all about this one, only because I will be travelling twice a week for the next 6 weeks to London, but it could be worse, I digress. Life has been pretty good this last week. Derek went on a bachelor party weekend to Ottawa with 19 other guys, they went white water rafting and bungee jumping, what a thrilling weekend for him! I will put up the video of him bungee jumping soon! He was quite tired when he got home last night, I picked him up at 1am from a dropoff area, but we stay up for a while talking about his weekend. I hope he had a wonderful time, Lord knows he deserves it. My weekend was pretty good as well, Oma took Kai Friday night, so after I picked up a new inflatable pool and umbrella stroller for Reiko, we came home, played alittle and then it was time for him to go to bed. Saturday morning I made up a dessert for the pig roast, went to pick up Kai in the afternoon and Oma and I got the big inflatable pool set up for Kai, he loved it! There is obviously no room at our house for a pool, that would require a front or back yard, then after playing outside for a few hours we went to the pig roast at my aunt and uncles house, the very last one, and I only saw Kai in passing the whole night, he was having a blast with his cousins! There were fireworks as well, alot of them,, more than the Goderich fireworks on Canada Day lol, but the first set of them were not properly put in the ground and one of the fireworks literally almost took of my sister's husbands head, if he had not bent down to grab his daughter the second before it would have been a disaster, Thank God nothing happened to him. We were all on edge after that, especially with Reiko around, but he loved the fireworks, I just plugged his ears when they would get loud, I was so afraid they would break the bones in his ears, I think he did just fine though. I couldn't believe it he actually stayed up until 11 that night too, so you would think he would have slept in, nope he got up like 5 times that night and was wide awake at 7am...ugh I was so tired. So I did the laundry, cleaned the house and tried to keep Kai from having meltdown after meltdown, yesturday was a bit of a hellish day with him...I wanted to go for a walk, he was happy and then he had a complete fit for no reason that lasted approx 2 hours..here watch a video of my day all day yesturday...
the joys of a toddler.
Once Derek wakes up I am totally going to have a nap before I head to school tonight. Oh Reiko found a way to get himself around too, he now lifts his back or side to scoot himself around, I can tell it tires him out though, so he only does it every once and a while. He left leg is doing amazing though, you can't tell at all he broke it 2 weeks ago! he is using it so well, I can't believe the strength he has. He has this darn heat rash that wont go away too, he sweats so much and its been very hot, so it goes away and then later that day it is back at full force, the worst place is the wrists, they look alittle painful. I have no idea what else to write about today, hopefully if the week goes good with Reiko we will be heading to the Toronto Zoo on saturday to meet up with some other parents of kids with OI, then the weekend after that is Marine Land, the weekend after that a wedding, the weekend at that is the Backstreet Boys concert, followed by Montreal later that week, Derek's triathalon the 15th, and then another wedding that weekend! this summer is going by so fast with how busy we have been, and then my little boy will be in kindergarten..time is flying by.
Ok thats enough chatter!!
Take Care!
