Ha ha. I bought this at our church craft sale. I think it is hilarious. It it SUPPOSED to go on your door knob.

Connor is not so crazy about his new snowsuit (thank you Grandma W.).... 

|

...but he does like the boots! 

|

Connor the Leprechaun has found the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow! Arrrr!  

|

Now Connor and Rubber Chicken are counting their gold and putting it in the bank.  

|

Yes, Connor can walk now! I don't think he has crawled for about two days. He's still getting the hang of the balance thing, though.  

|

Grandma Wager sent Connor a book for Halloween. He liked the book, but found the package even more interesting, of course. 

|

Our floor is so clean you can eat off it! Thanks mom.

Here is our wandering minstrel. He likes to play his recorder!

Hurray!!! I got Pleurisy!!! I topped the death cold!!!

Well after 3 visits to the ER in the last two weeks and being in agony for the last two weeks it turns out that it looks like I have pleurisy. I've been have this sharp painful pain in my chest for the last few weeks and the first two doctors said that it was a pulled muscle. Which was possible from my account because I helped a buddy move a few weeks back which included a piano. I got some muscle relaxers and some anti-inflamitorys but these did not seem to be working as the pain just seemed to be getting worse and worse. So I went back on Sunday and low and behold my family doctor was working that night. So my doc did a little more thorough testing and he thought that it was pleurisy. He put me on some heavy antibiotics and pain relivers that will actually work for this problem. Well it's been two days now and I'm feeling WAY better. I can actually move around some and cough a little more without so much pain. From what I've found out pleurisy is that it can be brought on by an injury to the chest (pulled muscle due to moving cursed piano(no offence Brie)). It also doesn't help that we have a few new jobs at work that require me to use my chest muscles for 2 hours straight at a time. Plus I'm trying to kick a cold where I've been hacking up stuff for a few weeks too.

So I'm off the Newmarket Hospital today for a lung scan. My doctor says my lungs sound clear so he's not too worried about anything else being wrong with me but wants to make sure. It feels good to know that this extra money I'm spending for OHIP this year on my taxes is going to be actually worth it.

The worst part about this whole thing is that I've been ordered by my doc not to go to work for this week. I just hope I'm not shooting myself in the foot for a chance at full-time by taking a little time off. I'm going to see him this morning so hopefully he'll say its alright for me to go back to work. Plus I'm going stir-crazy sitting at home all day. I went to work yesterday to talk to my team-leader and group-leader to let them know whats up so hopefully they won't think I'm just lazy. I've gone 16 months and the first day I missed was last week when I had the stomach flu.

Plus this is worse then the death-cold. So no more complaining from you Brock.

Sorry I blabbed so long but had to get it off my chest. HA!

Connor's lovin it that hockey's finially back. Whenever he see's the Maple Leaf logo now, he says "hock" We're still working on him to say the full word.  

|

Here's Tigger!!! We got this costume from out new neighbours. It fit Connor perfectly and he got tons of compliments on how cute he looked. Next year will be better because I won't have to carry him. Plus We'll get twice as much loot. 

|

Kate stayed home to hand out candy while Connor and I went to do some trick or treating. This was from just before we left to hit the streets. Connor didn't want to wait to take pictures. The sugar was calling his name. 

|

Time to see what we got. We only went to about 15 houses but we think we did pretty good. 

|

I got this Eeyore for Connor last Christmas, but he was never really interested in it until recently. Connor really likes him now and likes to grab him when Eeyore starts to walk away. 

|

Must attack Eeyore!
