mini-golfing Landon

John went golfing on Saturday, and Landon's heart was sad because he couldn't go. So, we went mini-golfing instead. It was really good because the nice guy let us in for free (likely knowing just how much Landon would actually be 'golfing'). Here are some pics of his fun! The theme is "old west", as you can likely see. There's a train on a track that you walk under, an old truck that is hauling cut lumber from the lumber mill, and even a pile of logs ready to go into the lumber mill.
We will need to work on Landon's form I think. He looks more like hockey than golfing! I couldn't get him to keep his hands together, no matter what. "I DO MOMMY!" So he did, and he enjoyed it, which is what is important.
Arlan - well he was in the stroller the whole time, just hanging out, being Arlan. What a wonderfully patient kid he is!!

And the teething continues...

Arlan's got a bit of a fever again today -- similar to exactly 2 weeks ago when we went to Saskatoon. And he's already woken up once tonight, which is unusual...So I'm thinking we're in for some more teeth! It appears that the bottom eye tooth on the right is ready to pop through (it's so red and swollen and sore looking ... poor guy!), as well as one on the top. If they are on their way, I hope they come through quickly, and that Arlan isn't too fussy grumpy tomorrow. Of course, John gets to go golfing, so I'll get fussy-pants all to myself (great). Ah well...

Other than that, life is fine. Went through the boys clothing, got our winter items are sorted out I think. Might need to invest in some mittens and toques, but I think we're good for jackets and skin pants. Oh yeah, and Arlan will need boots. But other than that, we're good to go. Now to find their Hallowe'en costumes. Landon wants to be Winnie the Pooh - but I haven't found a costume big enough for him yet. As for Arlan, we'll maybe he can be piglet if Landon's Winnie? We'll have to see.

That's about it - not much excitement. Landon continues to challenge us daily with his attitude, grrr. He's started the crying over everything 'stage', my oh my. Drama QUEEN! LOL I just keep enjoying Arlan, and thinking to myself "Oh man, in 2 years Arlan will be doing the same thing! ARRGGGHHH!! " aiaiai

Until next time...

More recent pics

This is Arlan - wondering what the heck Landon is doing with mom's heels on!! I love the look on his face, it's like "Are you serious??!!" LOL

I have an arrangement with a neighbour ... she takes Landon while Arlan has swim lessons, I get her little Lexi while her older daughter has lessons. Works out wonderfully for me - I get a baby fix!! And Landon loves Lexi ... I can't imagine him laying down with Arlan, but he snuggled right up to Lexi. I wonder if we're going to have a "ladies man" on our hands, or what!!

Then Landon comes downstairs with my heels on ... and my worries of a "ladies man" vanish!! LOL He had so much fun running around the house with these on ... they made a wonderful amount of noise you see :-/ *sigh*

Piano players...

Arlan was having a blast playing piano with Landon and dad the other day. Look at that laughing face - what a card! And Landon thought he was all that, look at him performing!! Too funny

Another new tooth :-)

Arlan popped through another tooth today!! Top, to the right of the 2 front teeth. So that's 2 so far this month, after that grumpy weekend. I wonder if more are on their way??

Just been enjoying the summer weather - in mid-September! I guess Mother Nature's making up for the crappy July?? Went to Airdrie today, still lotsa canola that's nice and green ... yuck

Landon's so funny these days, he walks around singing songs. I don't even know where he gets half of them! But he sings sings sings. And when we get in the car, Landon always wants music (specifically, the "na-na-na" song, which is "So What" by Pink). So I turn on the CD, and Arlan starts head-bopping. Cracks me up every time.

I don't remember if I posted before with Arlan's words. His favourite thing is "Bye" with a hand wave. We were at the Farmer's Market today, and he was saying "Bye" and waving to everyone. Even at the grocery store yesterday. So cute ... I love it. I should try to get a video of that...

Off to bed...

Bathtime - without tears :-)

Finally, we gave Arlan a bath and he didn't scream his head off!! Like we did with Landon, we moved him into our big bathtub, and I got in with him. In fact, I got in first, and when his curiousity got the better of him I pulled him in with me :-) But we made it through without screaming. I didn't wash his hair - dumped some water on his head and he was immediately trying to get out of the tub. But I got everything else washed (his feet are actually skin coloured, not dirt coloured!!! lol) so I'm happy. Then to his room, bottle and jammies and happy :-) Much nicer. Landon even crawled in with Arlan and I, and finished his bath up while I put Arlan to bed.

Landon had Sebastien over to play yesterday. He was so excited for "Bastien" to come, but when he got here, Landon was way more interested in playing with Sebastien's mom - of course!! Wow - am I gonna have trouble with him and older women? lol

Other than that - Landon is always busy. Right now he's carrying every book from our bedroom across to the bonus room, and piling them on the futon. I guess I'll go through our books shortly ...

Arlan is back to his happy, playful self. YAY! Giggling and playing and exploring all over ... so curious! And smiling again - I love it. Only one tooth has popped through (that danged molar), so we're watching to see if some more make their appearance shortly. There's gotta be a whole batch come through soon...

that's about it. Enjoying these nice days of late summer (I can still call it summer when we have humidex readings, right?). But I am looking forward to cleaning up the backyard toys -- several will be making their exit at the end of this season, and perhaps next year it won't be such a junk yard back there? Yah, right...heh heh

Pics from Saskatoon

We had such a nice visit in Saskatoon...it's too bad Arlan didn't feel better while we were there :-( Poor munchkin. So far, only the one molar has come through (while we were in S'toon) -- but he's still plenty grumpy throughout the day so I think there must be more on the way. He isn't nearly as miserable as last weekend, but he just has no patience and is whiny all the day long. Poor mouth...

Here's some pics of Landon doing what he does. Climbing (and jumping and trying to conquer all inanimate objects), and asking "why" about something that .. really, I don't know WHY!! LOL I do like the pic of him examining the twig - that twig was a source of entertainment for him for about 30 minutes. Not all nice, quiet contemplation, mind you -- after this moment of peace, he ran around like it was a sword, whopping and hollering like a true 3-year-old boy!!




We took some 'family' pics too. I like the one with all of us. Yup - it was on Sunday, and the RIDERS did win :-)

Then me with the boys (John's artistic photo skills coming through here). That's about as good as it could get when I had a deathgrip on Landon to keep him on my knee, and Arlan was crying or whining 99% of the time!!

The picture of Arlan on John shows what Arlan spent most of Saturday doing...lying on us. He just wanted to be held. He laid across my chest as I was laying back on the couch; feet dangling off the couch, body across my chest, head resting on my arm. Then he'd lift his head, bite my arm (HARD I tell you), and put his head back down. A minute later, CHOMP!, and lay his head back down. You couldn't help but feel sorry for him, although it is so tiring when they're miserable. But John and I did just sit back and soak up some snuggle time ... thankful that Aunty Rosemary and Uncle Bob are wonderful hosts who didn't grumble about Arlan's fussing (to our faces anyway!), and that Landon was entertained solely by being somewhere else. Phew!

This week Arlan is still fussy, and Landon is more and more jealous of the attention Arlan's getting. So Landon's starting making Arlan noises, grunting and pointing instead of using words, and whining. So fun. Love my life, really!

But, Arlan is saying more words. Still loves "burhhhhs!" (birds). Now also says "cah" (car), "truh" (truck), "buh" (bus), "bah" (bottle), "reh" (red), "spoo" (spoon). Oh yeah, and he has been fussing away in his high chair too, which I've been putting down to a sore mouth. But nope - he actually wanted utensils! Silly mom...so I gave him a spoon and fork tonight, and he happily ate almost everything up, using the spoon and fork!! WHERE'S MY BABY!!! *sigh* he's growing up WAY too fast....

until next time...

We're home again :-)

We are home again after having a nice visit in Saskatoon. Landon had an absolute blast, and did NOT want to leave this morning at all!! I kind of wanted to stay too, we were having quite a nice time!! Poor Arlan needed to get home though - poor kid. He's had an awful fever all weekend, I think it's due to teething as there are no other symptoms. So he has been MISERABLE! Fever that we've been treating, and he has no energy ... sits on us most of the time, will play a bit, and then needs to sleep. Not the usual fun Arlan we're used to, that's for sure.
But Arlan did perk up when we went to Lilja's 2nd birthday party on Sunday ... it was about the only time he was spry!! He really enjoyed the activity, and the toys!! He particularly liked Noah's Wiggles guitar...

The reason for the fever: well at least 1 tooth has popped through. His first molar on the bottom right. Now, he only has 2 teeth on top ... why he's already popping out a molar!!?? But, I'm remembering Landon getting 6 teeth in one week at age 15 months...Arlan will be 15 months next week. So maybe we're in for a bout of teething here, and we'll see some more come in the top, as well as this molar (maybe an eye tooth or two, by the looks of his poor, red eyes).

Landon had so much fun at Lilja's, he didn't want to leave, and has asked many times to go back!! Lilja got some cool gifts for her birthday, and Landon was in there enjoying them - especially a Tonka dumptruck, and a play-and-learn centre (fisher price). He was very patient though, through the gift-opening. It must've been SO hard for him, but he waited and let Lilja open her own gifts. It just about killed him to let her get that dump-truck opened..... I was very proud of him. He did, however, blow her candles out for her on the birthday cake before any of us could even blink!! I don't think the cake even made it all the way on to the table, and POOF!! lol But the candles were re-lit and Lilja had her turn too :-)

Other than that - John golfed with Brian (I bowed out, as I didn't want to leave sick Arlan with Aunty Rosemary, and wouldn't have enjoyed myself worrying about him anyway). I did a couple of runs with Brian - pushing my pace and distance (while it was a nice, easy run for him as he's running a half-marathon next weekend), we had nice dinners, and it was a really good time.

The driving was fine - if you can stand 4,312,937 questions from Landon!! "What's that truck carrying?", "Why is your blinker on?", "Why does grass grow here?". And then Landon's statement about an hour outside of Calgary "I wanna go to Kapuskasing!!!" aiaiaiai (Aunty Rosemary read him a story with Kapuskasing in it!! LOL). We were quite happy to let Landon out and get away from question period, that's for sure. And to think, Arlan will be doing the same thing in 2 years!! aAAAAAAARRRRRGGGGGGGHHHH

Now back to reality, and what appears to be fall. I will get some pics up this week I hope... Until next time...

A couple of shots from September...

Arlan LOVES to wear our shoes. He's always slipping some on and then attempting to walk. Here he is this morning with John's shoes on!! LOL

Landon loves dad's new workbench. He was very proud of his organization job, and was showing it to me yesterday like a peacock with his chest puffed out!!! LOL He sat up there for 45 minutes or so, rearranging the wrenches. Too funny

On another note, we discovered last night that Arlan likes sushi of all things! Yup - he had some of my california roll and was quite pleased with it. Stinker. Landon still won't even come close to a piece of sushi ...

Playing with Iden

Iden came over and entertained Landon for a day. It was such a treat - they played so well together. I sure hope he can come back soon, I really enjoyed having him here.

We went to the park in the morning -- they climbed and slid and swung (swang? swinged?).

Then an afternoon snack for all the kids. Arlan loved the goldfish the most :-) of course

Some popsicles too, especially after playing outside, it was so hot.

Arlan loved both watching the big boys and playing with them as much as possible. Little stinker. I'm not sure Iden quite knew what to make of the little imitator following them around!! Landon mostly ignores Arlan, Iden just growled at him LOL

Maybe THAT'S why they ask so many questions...

If the answers that I give to Landon's 1 million questions a day are even half as entertaining as the answers Landon gives to my questions, it explains why he asks so many questions!!!!

Landon just told me he doesn't want to have a penis anymore, he doesn't like it. I asked him what he would have instead. He's walking away from me (naked, of course), saying he'd have a bum in front, and a penis in the back (pointing to his body accordingly). "That's a good idea, right mom?" *ok*

So I think I should remember his answers to all of these questions we pose to him. They are quite amusing. Some other examples:

He told his babysitter that "Bees unscrew the lightbulbs and put their honey in there, and that's how they work." I don't know if that's how lightbulbs work, or how the bees work, but it's an interesting point to ponder....

Ah well, I will put more of these 'learnings' in here as I come across them!! Until then, we are enjoying another (close to) 30' day, and dreading the end of summer (and the approach of 'less play outside winter'!! ugh)

Floating the Bow

Some ducks were "charging" our raft as we came to downtown. Sooooooo cute!! (yes we fed them ... bad us)

Our starting point was Bowness Park (west end of Calgary). Hard to believe we were even IN Calgary.




Can you tell I was absolutely LOVING IT!! Perfectly clear blue skies, hot weather, tons of sun, and NO KIDS! LOL

Our view of Calgary downtown as we came up to it.

Whoops -- where have the days gone!

Aunty Allison was here for a visit - Arlan of course checked her out, and once he determined that she was ok, she was REALLY ok!! LOL Both boys loved visiting and playing with her -- and Allison got the best form of birth control ever (gotta love kids!). Ah well. We didn't do as much this year as we did last year when she was here, I think because Arlan needs to nap at home now I don't have the same 'freedom'. But she and I did "float the Bow" (drop a raft in to the Bow River, and float downstream) ... it was 30' and clear blue skies that Friday, it was WONDERFUL!!

Other than that - we've been hanging out at home. Iden spent a day with Landon last week, they had a lot of fun. It was cute to watch them - they'd play, then get sick of each other and go their separate ways, then they'd play together again. I didn't see any hitting going on, so Landon must've realized he can just go play on his own - he doesn't need to hit the other kid to make them leave!! LOL

Arlan now copies every single thing that Landon does. EVERYTHING! Landon was humming / moaning / singing into the empty water can (making a lovely sound!), and Arlan was right over there. Landon has to 'bite' the top of the umbrella pole, Arlan got right up there too. Landon hands on the cross bar on the swingset, so does Arlan!! Arlan follows him around ALL day long, doing everything his big bro does. The nicest times are when Landon plays back ... like they chase each other pushing trucks around the back yard, or they'll play in the sandbox together, that type of thing. Makes my heart melt :-D heh heh

I've also noticed Arlan is starting to stand his ground and fight back a bit. We've finally just got to the point where we've implemented the rule: if Arlan is crying or fussing, Landon has to quite doing whatever it is he's doing to him. That also goes for dad ... if Landon starts crying or fussing, DAD has to quit tormenting LANDON! Landon is getting a bit better with that rule, since "LEAVE HIM ALONE!" just wasn't getting any of us anywhere!!
But Arlan was walking up to Landon and pushing him today -- quite a change. It was ticking Landon off too, as he was trying to eat his "treat" (a Froster from Mac's). I just let it go, I know I'll be refereeing often enough.

Arlan is absolutely HATING his bath these days too! It's weird, when we run the tub, he stands at the edge wanting to get in ... he loves to play in water (and has succeeded in thoroughly soaking himself in the TOILET on occassion!!!! YUCK!). But when you put him in the tub, he is crying full volume and scrabbling to get out. Tonight I got in with him to see if it would help, but nope. I don't know what it is ... I remember Landon going through a phase of being afraid on the faucet, maybe I'll put a sock on it next bathtime to see if that helps. Or else we'll try our big tub (that helped with Landon too).

We took the boys swimming to an outdoor pool on Sunday - they loved it. Landon could JUST touch at the edge, so he had fun playing around. Then he jumped in 100 times, and went down the big slide twice, and then the smaller slide many many more times. Arlan was tentative to start, but we got him in the water and he sort of enjoyed it...although he was clamped on pretty hard! It did convince me to register him for swim lessons though, so both boys are starting lessons mid-Sept (until early Nov). Landon is unparented lessons now, so I will take Arlan in the tot pool while Landon has lessons for some extra water time with mommy! A neighbour and I are doing a kid-swap for lessons, to Landon will go there when Arlan has his lesson, and I'll have Lexi when Camryn has her lesson - works out quite well!

I guess I should get myself ready for bed. A late run tonight has me all keyed up! LOL Until next time (with some pics hopefully...)

Running!

Yup - Arlan has started running, lord help me!!! He doesn't manage it for very long, and sometimes I think he's only running trying to keep up with himself, as he usually ends up faceplanting :-/ But he's doing it, and proud of it too!!

Arlan's fave "game" right now is kicking a ball around. Doesn't matter what size - the big soccer ball, or a small 'hockey' ball. It's amusing to watch him; he'll kick the ball, then walk right over it (the small ones) and then stop, looking down like "Where is it??", then he turns around and is all happy to see the ball and starts kicking it again!! Too cute.

We're just hanging out at home. Trying to move Arlan to one nap a day. Two is really too much for him, as he's having trouble falling asleep at night (some nights not until 9 pm). But one isn't enough, as he doesn't extend that one nap, still keeps it a 1.5 hours and then he's grumpy later in the afternoon. But it's time to get rid of that morning nap I think - poor kid.

Anyways, I hear he's awake from that one nap, so I'd better go get him. Until next time...

Finally, home

We were all glad to get home on Saturday I think. The boys were happy to see their own familiar beds, and I was VERY glad to sleep in mine. John had to go to Olds to play (which is why we were home Saturday), but the rest of us were in bed, sleeping, at 9 pm!! LOL
Landon had day camp all this week again. The first two days were pretty ugly, but these past 3 were just fine. He even left me to run to his instructor when I dropped him off yesterday morning. But he is glad to be done daycamp too. I don't know why exactly he disliked it so much - he just said he wanted to be at home, and I guess that's maybe all it is. We've liked the tired Landon though - he fell asleep on the couch on Tuesday night, at 7:30!!

Other than that, we've just been sniffling our way through the week. We all still have our summer colds :-( Arlan had one bad night while we were camping - with a croupy cough, had me worried. That's the night Landon had a sleep-over with Drew and Bailey as I wasn't sure if Arlan would sleep much, but he did after a short 'episode' at about 9:30 or so. If the boys aren't better on Monday, I'm taking them in. It'll be 3 weeks at that point, so it's time to check ears and chests I think.

I've started running more regularly over the past weeks. Liz got me going, as I ran twice with her when they were here. I've also started running once a week with the mom of one of Landon's friends from swim class. I might even work myself up to a 10K this fall ... hopefully either Thanksgiving weekend, or the Hallowe'en Howl in late October.

So that's the scoop from here. Until next time...

Landon's FIRST camping trip

Landon most DEFINITELY loved camping!! He's been asking to go to Uncle Greg's trailer since we got home!! Well, actually, he wanted to come home (he told us on Friday "I really really really really really really really want to go home" ... but when asked further, he wanted to bring the trailer home with us!!).

Rhonda and Clay came to visit and camp with us too, which was awesome!! It was great to see them again. Drew and Landon played together lots (Drew will be 5 in October). Bailey (who's 8) found herself a little friend in the trailer right beside them (Wrangler's trailer ...) and so we didn't see them much. They were actually "working" at the Clearwater Lake store for the cool and rainy days!! So cute!

Grandma and Grandpa came out on Friday, despite the rain. Grandpa helped Landon and the others roast some marshmallows during a lull in the sprinkling. Then we headed to White Bear for the lawnmower races (this is done every year in Whitebear to kick off the Kyle Rodeo weekend). What a treat ... I've never seen anything like that, that's for sure!!! They had 'smoke-shows' (burning rubber!! LOL), and raced garden tractors. Landon's highlights were going for a ride on the back of the monster truck, and going for a ride in the ambulance (depending on when you ask him, each of these take their turn as favourite). I should clarify - the ambulance ride was with Aunty Yvonne, who was on call for the lawnmower races. She and her partner Doug drove Landon around White Bear for a few minutes while the rest of us had supper in the bar :-D John and I also enjoyed learning that what 'they' say is true, White Bear really DOES have the best wings EVER! LOL















Here's just a good shot of Landon playing with trucks - really concentrating. I like this photo. He played with his new-found friend Kris's trucks the entire time we were there. As it turns out, Kris is the son of another friend from University that I hadn't seen in, oh, 16 years or so!!! So Rhonda, Tracy and I had a good time catching up with each other too!! We were able to get to a drive-in movie together too (along with my sis) which was great ... we saw The Hangover - a great movie to watch with friends.

Landon has entered into the "lookatme!" stage -- with everything he does!! It's either "watch this!" or "Look at me!" or "I'll show you". yay

LOTS of firsts for Landon this week: 1) camping, of course; 2) sleeping in a tent -- his preferred sleeping arrangment for the week was sleeping with dad in the tent; 3) sleeping in the bunk (of the trailer); 4) flying a kite; and 5) having a sleep-over with Drew and Bailey (which might've been his preferred sleeping arrangement, but we figured one night was enough!!). It was a great week, and we are all looking forward to doing it again next year!! I can HARDLY wait!!

On Thursday it was windy, so Landon got a chance to fly his first kite. He really enjoyed it actually -- a great activity for him, running!!! LOL

Arlan's first camping trip

Arlan LOVED camping at Clearwater - even though it was chilly (and a bit rainy I hate to say).
He made a little friend -- Wrangler was camped beside Rhonda & Clay, who came down to join us for the dreary week!!


YAY - SO much fun!! This time mom was thinking "Arlan learned to walk just in time"
Arlan enjoyed the playground too - although he didn't spend nearly as much time there as Landon did.



The view is MUCH better up on Aunty's shoulders!

Checking out the dock at the beach when we first arrived. We spent one day on the beach of the three full days we were there. The next was windy and cool, Friday was rainy :-(

August long weekend wedding :-)

Ok - this isn't really about the "Life and Times of Arlan and Landon" as they weren't there, but I love the pics!! LOL Landon and Arlan spent August long weekend entertaining Grandma and Grandpa on the farm. They were very busy -- Landon helped Grandpa shoot gophers, pick up the paper (which involved going to the bar to drink [root] beer and eat chips, and clean out bins). Arlan showed off his new walking skills, and perfected his stair- and couch-climbing abilities.

John and I had a weekend AWAY!! GLORIOUS! Friday we drove from the farm to Winnipeg, where we met up with the Tremendons, and continued out to Kenora for a fabulous wedding (hence the pic of the people kissing). I've a couple pics of us gals (the Tremendons), and one of "the guys" too :-) What a great looking bunch we all were!! Especially the bride and groom (congrats again to Trish & Phil!!!). The outside pics are taken at Trish's family cottage ... a great place for a wedding, that's for sure!

The wedding reception and dance was on the MS Kenora. The water shot is just that - a shot from the boat. An absolutely glorious place for the reception - we all had an absolute blast.

Sunday we went back to Winnipeg. We lunched with Aunty Margaret, checking out her new pad (VERY nice). Then over to Pam & Kevin's for the night. We went OUT for wings, visited with Wes a bit, and then sang to "American Idol" on the Wii!! TOO funny.

Monday was a long drive back to the farm!! I was glad to get back to see my boys though. Unfortunately, neither they nor I lost our summer colds over that long weekend :-( But we all had lots of fun.

More of Visits with cousins

We enjoyed a wonderful BBQ at Uncle Rob's brother-in-law's brothers house (got that?) on Saturday July 25. It was a beautiful day, and a wonderful time. Even Arlan got into the festitivies!!! LOL

I love these pics -- Arlan's modeling one of the hats that was purchased that day, and checking my messages for me (one of his favourite things to do!).

Landon had so much fun playing with Isabel and Isabel's "other cousin" Jake ... and this water rocket! They spent plenty of time shooting that thing off!! There were also MANY trucks for Landon to hoard, er I mean play with. He found an ambulance and wouldn't put it down in case someone else touched it. He would climb the play- structure and slide with it clutched in his hands!!

Visiting with Thomson & Izzy

Aunty Liz, Uncle Rob, cousins Thomson and Isabel came to visit!! They arrived July 24, and thankfully we had pretty nice weather all weekend long.

Arlan absolutely LOVED all the action - he was in his glory, giggling and smiling and turning circles. I think he must've thought "I learned to walk JUST IN TIME!!" LOL

We spent some time hanging out -- watching a few cartoons.

But we also managed to get out and "play" a bit too. Everyone (but me) did some shopping and bought cowboy boots and hats (now I'm the odd-one out ... or is that the 'not-so-odd' one out???). We also headed downtown to Prince's Island Park to play at the splash pool, and to feed the birds (right beside the big sign that says "Don't feed the birds" which we all somehow failed to see). Landon had a blast in the water, and even Arlan enjoyed exploring a bit too, although he was a bit more timid.

Quickie...

A quick post to appease Nikki LOL

We are home and settling back in after a busy few weeks. Liz, Rob and the kids were here the 24 through 28. Then John, I and the boys headed to Sask where Landon and Arlan spent August long with Grandma & Grandpa. John and I continued on to Kenora for a wedding, spending 1 night in Winnipeg on the way back to get the boys. Then to Clearwater Lake (at Kyle, SK) for 4 days of camping -- our first time out with the kids. We had Greg and Yvonne's trailer, which was good because we had more rain than sun :-( We got back home yesterday. Today was washing clothes and grocery-shopping.

I will upload pics and tell stories with them hopefully in the next few days. Landon has day camp all this week, so I might get some time. However Arlan seems to be liking only 1 nap a day these days, so I might not get much time *shrug* We'll see I guess.

Until next time...
