A day in the life...

I figured I should add another post, maybe something a little lighter this time? Titus had to work today so it was just me and the kids again, we're getting used to it, when Daddy has work we don't see too much of him. (He always surfaces to cook meals though! :) There are many pros and cons to being self-employed but we sure love having him home, we see a lot more of him than we would if he was working for an advertising company. When we were first married he made the trek into Toronto every day, which meant he left at 7a.m. and wasn't home until after 7p.m. Now he's freelancing, which means we're very grateful for the work, especially in this slow economy. The upside is, in between jobs we get to spend a lot of time with him!



Braedon caught red-handed, now I know who's responsible for all the blow fishes on my windows!!! :P


I shouldn't actually say that we spent the day alone, we had some friends come to visit this afternoon. My friend Leah is pretty good with the camera and was willing to try to get a family pic for Christmas cards. I know it's early, but we had pictures taken of the kids earlier in the year, and it took 3 attempts (and by that I mean 3 different dates with 2 different professional photographers ) before we even had 1 usable picture of the 3 kids together!





Let's just say Leah is a patient woman!
There were MANY MANY more like these, but we did get a few good ones too! You'll see a good one when your Christmas card comes in December...


Anyways Jon and Leah stayed for dinner, along with Andrea and baby Joshua.
After dinner Titus went back to work and the rest of us played some games... love games...




Til next time then...

He is adorable. I so wish I could hug you and your kids, they rock!!
Just got back from my friends birthday party for her one year old, fun!
She has 4 boys; Austin 12, Tristan 7, Matteo 3 (he's the hellion and my very favourite, my little man!) and Antonio 1!
She's had her moments for sure, but ADORES her boys! Have you made any decisions Joyce?
I love how you describe your 'mommy heart'. There is nothing more special.
Love you special family, hugs!

Joyce! Love love love, the attempts at a family shot! it makes me laugh. It does get better with age.. at least then you can get them all to sit still for the shot.. smiling is another thing.
