My gran passed away on sunday at 11am Canadian time. Gran had been sick for the last little while and in some discomfort. I will always remember my gran as a sweet, caring, strong woman. This was a lady who up until about a year ago was living on her own well into her 90's.
This is one of my favorite photos of my Gran, it is me and my brother Neal sandwiching my Gran.
The funeral is friday. I try to live my life with no regrets but I do wish I had been able to see more of my Gran and I do wish that she had been able to meet Keir, I know that Keir would have really liked her and she would have loved him.
Love you Gran

-want to buy a bridge?-

So i might be very gullable we will see. I have heard a lot about the FreeIpods.com. Basically they will send you a free Ipod (actually they do it for other stuff too) if you: 1, sign up for one of there promotions and get 5 other people to do the same. You can choose which promotion you sign up from, I chose a free 20$ gift card at Canadian Tire, which actually costs 1$. Then the tricky part is to get 5 other people to sign up. Well Apple introduced it's new Ipod Nano which would be perfect for me, I thought I would try it out.
It seems very legit as it has been on all the news shows
Here is an article explaining it a lot better tha I just did.
Any way i will keep you posted how it goes.
If you want to try it out as well please you my refer link here http://ipodnanos.freepay.com/?r=22124492
If you have any questions about it drop a comment in the comment section and we can talk.
That is all for now

We went to the Experimental Farm, in Ottawa, there was a bit of a crazy sheep trying to getout of his stall

-no cheese-

I just had to post this real quick, I was giving Keir his lunch and was asking him if he wanted some Cottage Cheese, his response was "No Cheese, cake!"
At least he has his priorities straight!
We are off to the cottage for the weekend.
Have a great weekend

-My mum rocks-

So I have been doing lots of running while I have been off watching Keir. While I run, I think. I was thinking today while running, that my mum is amazing. To do what she does with Keir(takes care of him while we are at work) is such a selfless thing to do. We have told my mum how much we appreciate what she is doing for us (and Keir) but we probably don't tell her enough. So yeah, my mum rocks.
I know that since she has been back in Scotland, Keir has missed her. He mention's her multiple times a day.
Thats all for now

Along with the pj's Jenn got some kid markers for Keir. My parents are in Scotland right now. So we thought we would write a note to them. Well we got as far as one note to Gran, we were going to do two notes one to Gran andone to Granpa, but as you can see things got a little messy and we only got one done before the markers had to be out away.

-Saturday-

Here is my saturday . Actually it was just my saturaday morning. I went for a run, for those of you who run, you should click on the link and check out the running distance tool that works with Google Map. This tools is awesome! So apprently I ran a shade under 30km and burned 2436.15457634437 calories! The tool tracks mileage markers, and with the satellite imagery you can really get a pretty acurate route.
I have been trying to up my running mileage this past week to get ready for a Fall Marathon, I have managed to run every day this week starting monday and my plan is to go every day this week also (I may have a rest day in there, we will see how my body holds up. Including today(Sunday) I have ran 12hrs and somewhere between 120-140kms.
That is all for now

-Kingston-

Well I finally got around to posting some more photos(see below). Last weekend Jen and I got to go to Kingston for the weekend. That means Keir got to spend the weekend at his Gran and Granpa Herrington's house. It was Jen's first night she has spend away for Keir (ever). The reason for the trip was a special anniversary treat for us. This year is our 4th anniversary. We had a wonderful weekend we stayed right downtown in Kinston at the Four Points Sheraton, which was very nice, and had a really nice supper at Le Chien Noir. It was a very nice weekend and it was nice to be able to not worry about Keir for a night. Keir really enjoyed his weekend with his granparents. It was good to get back to Keir.
I am off work for the next two weeks watching Keir, as my parents have gone back to Scotland for two weeks. I am really looking forward to spending lots of time with Keir.

That is all for now.
