100th post... playing catch up!

Yikes a little too long I have waited to post! sheesh! Oh well here I am back again, brand new year, brand new adventures... so much to be discovered.

This year brings some changes, some known and some unknown I'm sure. I am still selling Norwex Cleaning products and have very much been enjoying meeting new people and spreading the word of how to clean your home without using chemicals. I am also taking a couple of little kiddies during the week. I'm excited as they are sweet little boys but I am nervous to see how Rupert will adjust to having other kids in his space and sharing his mommy. I am also nervous for the difference it will make in my "getting things done" and "resting" time. I'm generally very protective of that time. I think I will need to adjust and move it to a different time of the day!

Rupert is growing and changing like crazy! His little personality is such a blessing to me. He has taught me over and over again to lighten up and relax. So many times when I will be irritated with him for something or another he will give me one of his little looks, eyebrows always raised and we will both burst out laughing. I love that he has a sense of humour. He also loves BIG. I am so thankful for that but I also find it a challenge. Not everyone enjoys his BIG love. haha... I am trying to figure out how to teach him to respect other people's space, likes and dislikes without squelching the love that he so readily and freely wants to give.

We have been spending lots of time at the beach lately... yup I love BC winters! Rupert is an avid dirt digger and rock thrower!

He loves his shark toque and so do I. He rarely takes it off when we go out. Today I took him to church with his toque on and when I took it off he asked for it back and put it on himself and went on his way.

This is Rupe's cheese face. If you get the camera out or if you say cheese this is the face and it is gone as quickly as it comes... pretty hilarious!

Talking is still coming slowly... our little boy is a man of few words... however he is EXTREMELY expressive! And his newest obsession is owls. I have no idea how it started... maybe Winnie the Pooh? But every time he sees one or wants to see one he says "hoo hoo hoo". This brings me to his new favourite pass time... colouring! He climbs up into a chair at our kitchen table and says "pah" (please) while pointing to our colouring supplies. He is too precious!

How are owls and colouring related you may ask? Well every single picture we colour has to have an owl on it. I have drawn many in the past week! And he has drawn one. He drew a round'ish object, pointed to it and said "hoo hoo hoo". Also we have to trace both our hands on it before we finish. He tries so hard to trace our hands and then when we lift them up he claps for himself. presh.

I love both these sets of photos... couldn't pick favourites!

I'm very excited to see what this year has in store for our little family, hopefully I will be a little more faithful in my blogging... Happy 10oth post!
