- We dunked our babies under the water for the first time during swimming lessons on Tuesday. It went over relatively well and Isla didn’t seem to mind too much – She just had this, “What the hell just happened???” look on her face after the first couple dunks. Then, on Thursday, we did some more dunking and it didn’t go so well. She had this shocked look and then tears started flowing. She stop crying just in time for another dunk by the instructor. And – more tears. Poor girl. I blame the fact that we had a substitute instructor. Our regular girl is SO much better, so I’m hoping she’s back on Tuesday.
- I bought a new camera bag from Jo Totes! Actually – I bought a new bag because I bought a beautiful new 50mm f/1.8 lens and my current camera bag is now just a smidge too small for all my gear! So, I ordered this beauty:
Isn’t she pretty? I can’t wait for it to arrive!
- The NHL is back! Yaaaaay! For someone who isn’t at all interested in basketball or football, this is FANTASTIC news! Lockouts are such a downer, so I’m stoked to be cheering on my Canucks again. Isla is too:
- I started pumping with hopes to wean Isla. She just doesn’t seem that interested in nursing these days so I think it may be time. She’ll have a little “snack” after her three meals of solid foods (breakfast, lunch, dinner) and only really wants the boob before she goes to bed. So – for those mama’s who read my blog – any tips? I’m pumping mostly because my boobs are ready to explode most of the time. Don’t even think about giving me a hug. That just hurts too much.
- There’s been a lot of hate going on towards pit bulls right now and it makes me so sad. I wish people were better informed about the breed and didn’t take everything they read and see in the media as the “end all, be all” for the dogs.
- On a lighter note, we gave Campbell a bath the other day and he smells sooooo good! His hair clogged the drain and now she’s shedding like crazy, but still – He’s such a handsome boy now!
