Busy Times

Again, it's been awhile since my past post.

Hmmmm, where to begin?

The beginning of the month Andrew and i went to the CNE grounds quite often. I know longer have the dreads that i so dearly wanted. My dad came here for the airshow at Ontario place with Andrew and I. It was the first time he's been on a subway, or on any transit system in forever. His legs are getting really bad. He can barely walk. Lisa popped by that day and bought Andrew some really cute clothes. She has awesome taste. She is also really good with Andrew. She puts so much time and love in to him. Actually, all his siblings do, except for maybe Christina, i don't think she likes kids all that much. Don's parent came here on the 11th but unfortunately was not able to come here and visit us much because Don has been working around the clock to get a project finished. But they will be coming again in 3 weeks for Thanks Giving, hopefully the job will get done before then and we'll be able to spend more time with them this time. sDon's aunt Lydia bought some new furniture and gave us her old but perfect condition couch, recliner chair and very beautiful blue rug. The couch is a pullout bed so now i will have a place for our guests to sleep when the come. The recliner is GREAT, i have always wanted one. Christina gave Don two tickets to see U2 for his birthday. VERY unfortunate he was not able to see them because of this job he's working on. So i brought my sister Judy along. We were right in front of the stage, couldn't get any closer then that. It was an amazing concert. Andrew started homeschooling on the fifth. He is getting really good at writing letters. The sounds they make and just last night we were walking back from the food store and he pointed to a sign and kept saying osse, i'm like what the heck is he trying to say? And then i realised that he was reading the name of the gas station which is called ESSO.. Then later on i was reading him a story and he started sounding out the words. He's learning fast. ANd he's also becoming quite the little abstract artiest too. He loves to doodle. I will have to snap a picture of one of them and post it here.Hmmm what else? Oh, Andrew and i have been going to an animal shelter a lot lately, right now were fostering a cat named Isis, she is 1yr 4mths, long black hair with a little white spot in her belly, She is a real sweetheart but extremely shy, she never comes out from hiding unless we coax her out.
I think that's about it, i will post some pics later on.
