Just Kidding. LOL. Sure looks like it though.

New Toy.

So where do I begin...

We bought a new bed and it was delivered last Wednesday, it is so comfy. Plush pillowtop. That was the beginning, on Saturday we finally bought a Wii. What fun it is I tell you. It can definitely give you a work out though, especially if you do some boxing. So those were our special purchases this month.

Mike took Braden's training wheels off of his bike today and he can ride a "two-wheeler". Woo Hoo. He has a bit of a hard time starting but once he does he's pretty good. He had no fear and learned by himself.

Only a few more weeks of school left. Ashley's class went to Sorrento yesterday to spend the day with their pen pals.

Nothing new with Amber and Andrew.

Good news though. We have the kids for an extra month.

Here are a few pics of Ashley and Braden riding their bikes today.

All is good

Monday we went to Vancouver for Andrew's Doctor appointment. His doctor said things look great, and then he got new molds made for new AFO's (Ankle Foot Orthotics) and $1500 is being covered by medical so we only have to pay about $200, which is good since he outgrew his last pair in less than a year. So now we need to go down there again for him to be fitted. In the mean time they added some stuff to his right shoe so his foot will get some added benefit. His doctor also said he still has showing evidence of the Transverse Myelitis. His right eye droops a bit, his right foot is still weak as well as his right arm.

Mike has been on holidays all week but unfortunately has to go back to work tomorrow. Ashley had a blast getting a ride to school and back on the bike.

Ashley has started swimming lessons in school and she spent this weekend (fri - Sun) at her last Brownie event of the year. She had a great time at camp but is covered in mosquito bites despite the use of repellent.

Braden had his needles (getting ready for kindergarten), Mike took him and it was a good thing he took him. Braden freaked out. All is good now though.

Amber is well Amber, sweet on the outside but then the temper and backtalking comes out. LOL.

Here are a few pics.
