Where's the beef?

So I may have made the best roast of all time tonight.  I cooked it perfectly so it was beautifully pink and tender and delicious.  Here's the link to the recipe.

I know it might not be pretty but look at the color! Mmmmnnnn

Needles today :0(

     Wyatt got up nice and early this morning (before 7am) so we went into PA to do some running around and grocery shopping. While we were shopping Wyatt powered back 3 mini oranges so I had to go back for a second box.  We were back home by 10:40am!  After having a little visit with his buddy Gage, we came home and didn't nap. He had to go in and get his 18month needles.  He got 3 and didn't even cry until the very last one.  He got more upset about having to leave the toys behind in the nurses office.  I think he may have had a slight fever tonight from the shots because he got pretty grumpy.
     Oh yeah!!  I got new winter boots today!  Which has perfect because it was -33 before the windchill when we went out this morning.  I had to keep the heat up full just to keep the window from fogging up! 

Eating his first popsicle (yogurt), but he couldn't figure out the handle so I held it for him for the first bit.

Eating his favourite teeny tiny oranges yesterday.

One try to guess what he's doing!

Snack time at the Braaten's today after shopping.

Cars!

Yesterday Ryan decided to skip working on his sled and spend some much needed quality time with Wyatt.  His boss is on vacay right now so he's missed seeing Wyatt at all a couple days this past week.  When Wyatt woke up from his nap they had a Cars movie marathon.  Wyatt LOVED the racing parts!  All the loud engine sounds and different cars.  He kept pointing at the TV saying "Wow, woah". 

Loving Yoga

I have done yoga and/or pilates almost everyday this week, and I am loving it!!  The videos that I like to follow are Yogamazing.  He's super easy to follow and he isn't the wishy washy, one with the earth and praise my yoga master type.  I can already tell that I'm getting more flexible, and frankly I love wearing these spandex! :0)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JENI!!!!!

Well Wyatt had a full afternoon of playing with his buddy Gage today.  They were born a week apart and get along really well (they don't hit each other to get at toys - very much).  Melissa (Gage's mom) and I made supper together as well.

Day 1

Here we go...  Welcome to my new blog, hopefully this will last longer than a week!  I'm just going to be keeping you guys updated with what's going on with my little family here in Saskatchewan. 
I just put Wyatt down for a nap and the thought of starting this blog is the only thing that kept me awake!
