What a BUSY Week!

This week has been really fun, my grandparents have been here from Arizona and all Cassie's uncles have been getting together trying desperatly to beat their Dad at poker - i don't beleive there has been huge sucess at it yet!

Today we are going to the zoo to show Cassie real monkeys since we call her monkey all the time. The weather is warm and sunny and so we need to do something outside.

Last night Mike made the best Salmon I have ever had, and I am sad there are no left overs. We will just have to do it again soon.

Cassie has a great sleep schedule bed at midnight and sleep to 6am, except last night we got up at 2am and still got up for good at 6 - not rest for the mama, but when I wake up to a cute little baby smile it could be every hour!

I think Sasha is going to miss Grandpa the most, she loves having him here.

Well more later when I have a couple of minutes.

Sunny Grandparents here!

Well the joy of family - as a baby I get to see everyone all the time and they all love and cuddle me constantly.
My Grandpa and Grandma from Arizona came to stay with us for a week and so Mom has been cleaning and organizing the house like a crazy person so it looks nice - Daddy even got into it and did the basement and the spare room so they could sleep in a bed and not on the floor!

I am enjoying all of the cuddles and eagarly awaiting enchiladas for dinner tonight - I do realize that as a baby I only get to eat it via Mom, but even then it will still be great if the smell is any indication.

I am getting so long - all of my sleepers are too short for my long legs, my toes are curling at the ends to fit - Mommy is filling up the newborn clothes box in the closet, shopping time for me!
What else have I been up to, oh yeah I have been chatting away, last night to Mommy and Daddy and wiggling on the bed like a little worm. They are so excited to see how big I am getting and how fun it is to see me exploring and discovering my surrondings.

Sasha, my puppy is so happy to have my grandpa here, she loves him and she also listens really well to him, something interesting and new for her too!

Well I should go and have a nap all this typing considering how little my fingers are, it takes a little work.

Bye
Cass

My Medical Trauma!

Ok, so I am not a huge fan of my parents this week, I am sure most of you thought this would come in the teenage years, but let me tell you my side of the story and you can judge for yourselves.

Wednesday night is when things started - Mom was feeding me and cuddling like usual I was relaxed and enjoying my time with her. She started to give me what felt like a nice hand massage, taking each of my fingers and making a clicking sound. I did not know what was coming - she CUT me!!! Yes people the woman who loves me unconditionally cut my finger with the nail clippers, which are obviously a baby torture device, and since I am a girl, maybe I like long nails. I guess I have no say.

The event by itself would not be bad, and truth be told Mommy felt horrid, i think she cried with me, and I certinly will remember her promise to do anything to have me stop sobbing!

The next day was wonderful I hung out with Mom and watched as she cleaned the house, a good time always. Then they both bundled me into the car and went get shots....at this time I had no idea what this meant. We get there and like usual I get weighed, yeah 9lbs! I am getting big, and I am 21'' long now - watch out Cyrus I am catching up.

Then we went into a room and I got to sit on Daddy's lap, when the lady who seemed nice jabbed me twice in one leg and once in the other. What the hell sort of plan is this, I am not exposed to any diseases I am a BABY!

And now you are all thinking I must be done, Nope I had to go to the Children's hopspital, which is very cool, they have 2 cows on the inside and lots of fun toys and bright colors, and a very funny Dr. who looked at my hips...If I had known it was such a big deal to be bum down in Mommy I could have moved, just no one ever asked! So my hips seemed ok to the ultrasound lady and the Dr who made great faces at me, I will know when I go to the Dr on Monday, but it should be an ok appointment, and then I get to see Aunt Sarah!!! Yeah.

My Grandpa was at the ultrasound and that was really cool I was able to make him put my suckie back in my mouth 127 times in a row, and never a complaint - that is the sign of a good grandparent.

Well so that was my week, getting stabbed and rotated and cut and measured by all sorts of people, but I am pleased to report I am fine, Mommy has a small complex about cutting my nails, so I currently have a couple long, a couple shots and one small wound, I am sure she will get back on the wagon one of these days - or maybe make Daddy do it.

Calgary today is crazy, there is a ton of snow and it is cold so I am spending the day inside in a fuzzy sleeper and just doing nothing.

I also wanted to mention how much I have been smiling, and starting to coo a lot more, Mom and Dad just love the sounds and their faces light up whenever I smile at them, they are so easy to please.

A Date with Daddy!

Last night I got to hang out with Daddy all by myself, Mommy went to the Flames game and for dinner with Auntie Laura.

She seemed ok for the most part when we dropped her off, although I think she kissed my head 100 times before getting out of the car! She only called once after dinner to make sure I had eaten since Daddy had tro give me a bottle and I had not had one in a while. She seemed very excited I puked on Daddy, since I do it to her 100 times a day.

This morning was a great example, I was so excited to have my milk machine back I went a little crazy, trying to eat more then my small belly would hold, poor Mom she was so happy to shower and have clean clothes on that I had to get sick all over them, and back down to the laundry she went to see if anything bigger then 3 months was clean for her...hehe

What else is new, well I got to go for a walk with Nolan and Paul from my baby class yesterday and it was amazing to see how much bigger they are then me, I guess that is good since they are boys!

Today is very sunny and I think we are walking later, maybe we will take Crazy Sasha - my doggie who is very hairy and loves me a ton, she is very protective and makes sure no people come up to me.
Luna, the kitty is also starting to realize I am here to stay, I am not sure she is thrilled considering now I snuggle in Bed in the mornings and I always get food and cuddles so she has started to climb on the couch in the evenings and place herself on Mommy or Daddy and wiggle until she is petted, what an attention hog!!!

I am getting excited for my visist with my other Grandpa and Grand ma next week, they are coming to see me, and maybe will spend time with my uncles too!

Well I probably need to eat again considering Mom is trying to make lunch, I have really started to like cuddling on the couch and bouncing on Mom's knee, she sings and makes horsey noises, which I think are very funny!

The beginning

Well it is now April 15th and Mommy is starting the realize how much I change so I will try and write some stuff down so she will have a history, and so everyone else can learn how my days go.

I am getting used to living with Mom and Dad, they are kinda crazy, Dad is a hockey nut and is watching the Flames constantly, actually Mommy says all he does is watch sports highlights.

I MUST wear my jersey and my socks and sometimes my flames head band, and make sure I am awake for the game, if possible. I am very glad Mom and Dad got a big enough TV so I don't feel like I am missing anything.

Right now I am taking my first nap in my crib, up until now I have been sleeping in the bassinet and sometimes in my play pen. The crib is cool I am mesmorized with the mobile, I love the little animals rotating.

I am also learning to keep my soother in my mouth for longer then 30 seconds, I do feel Mom gets a little exasperated with replacing it 100 times in 10 seconds, it is a great game, shhh don't tell her!

I am also getting so smily, there is nothing better then watching the look on Mommy and Daddy's faces when I smile at them, they love it, I am so cute and lovable, even with the most explosive diaper yesterday Daddy still sang to me.

Well more later I must sleep - Ahhh the life
