Talk Nerdy To Me: Kai Turns Nine: Halfway to Adulthood
http://www.talknerdytomeblog.com/2015/08/kai-turns-nine-halfway-to-adulthood.html
Monday, August 03, 2015. Kai Turns Nine: Halfway to Adulthood. Today our Kai Bear turns nine. He let me know that he is officially halfway to being an adult which made me stop and think. An adult? Yes, I can see it. Kai is a typical oldest child in that he's responsible and a good leader. Yes, he might like to lead a bit. Much and is a touch. Too competitive, but really, if that's our biggest concern right now, then I'd say we're just fine. PS Your freckles are so cute. I may know a bit about it too ;).

Talk Nerdy To Me: April 2015
http://www.talknerdytomeblog.com/2015_04_01_archive.html
Thursday, April 30, 2015. This week I am thankful for:. 1 Our king size bed. I loooooooooooooooooove crawling into our bed at the end of the day. PS Anyone else have a body pillow `dividing' the bed? So easy to communicate with a few key people! Gary adds a tagline to his texts so last week all of his texts ended with `love you' and this week it's `you're hot'. Hopefully he removes the tagline when he texts other people! We took the kids to the park to play some baseball. It felt like summer! Part of win...

Talk Nerdy To Me: January 2015
http://www.talknerdytomeblog.com/2015_01_01_archive.html
Friday, January 30, 2015. One of the main purposes of this blog is to document my kid's lives. I just wanted to share some sweet moments with Nya from over the past couple of days. Being that my mom is no longer here on Earth, I savour my mother daughter moments with her that much more. Bedtime stories. Each of us with our baby. Thankful when she picks the short Dora books.}. I was braiding my nieces hair and thought `Why not try Nya's? Oh Nya Bear. So thankful for you, monkey. Thursday, January 29, 2015.

Talk Nerdy To Me: Kai's 9th Birthday Party
http://www.talknerdytomeblog.com/2015/08/kais-9th-birthday-party.html
Tuesday, August 11, 2015. Kai's 9th Birthday Party. Kai Bear had his 9th birthday party this past weekend. Last year we had an Amazing Race themed. One which he really enjoyed. This year, we had a little less time and energy so we had a low-key hockey party and everyone still had a lot of fun. I have to admit that birthday parties at his age are a little less exciting for me but he loves it and it was a great opportunity to get together with friends that he hasn't seen over the summer. Oh, and the bonus?

Talk Nerdy To Me: May 2015
http://www.talknerdytomeblog.com/2015_05_01_archive.html
Friday, May 29, 2015. What Fills Your Bucket? Recently I read ` Stop the Energy Drain. Over at Sarah on Purpose. She talks about our energy being like a bucket. We need to think of how to fill that bucket and how to prevent the bucket from leaking. What do I need to feel energized? What fills my bucket? I need to try and get about 10,000 steps in a day. A walk or run each day is so important because we are in wedding season and I sit at a computer for hours a day editing. And the word `so'. }. Having the...

Talk Nerdy To Me: August 2015
http://www.talknerdytomeblog.com/2015_08_01_archive.html
Monday, August 31, 2015. Fostering: Being a Family. I had an "interesting" conversation at the bank the other day. Someone found out that we were fostering a child and said, "Oh, I've been thinking of doing that to supplement my income." First of all, if you are planning on bringing a child from a hard place into your home, your heart needs to be in it. But it's better to try than not to, right? Day-to-day expenses; clothes, shoes, food, car seats, strollers, diapers, bikes, wipes, gas for driving to mee...

Talk Nerdy To Me: Gary Turns 40
http://www.talknerdytomeblog.com/2015/08/gary-turns-40.html
Tuesday, August 04, 2015. Today Gary turns the big 4-0. We aren't having a big party as his request was just to spend some time with the kids (all-you-can-eat sushi is in the plans) and one-on-one time with me. I have never been more happy to be married to this guy. He sees the "big picture", loves us unconditionally, and makes us all feel special and important. In honour of your 40th birthday, here is your favourite kind of poem, Gary:. Always a nickname for everyone. We love you, Gary! Hi, I'm Louise!
