Hello Week 9!!

Woohoo....only 2 more weeks to go! Only problem is....I have no idea what's going to happen once he finishes. He doesn't have a return flight home etc. etc. So really....anything could happen. He has to wait for his security clearance...somewhere...which could take a year...or more..or less...who knows. But as least this part of training will be over.

Ethan did put in his "official request" for us to move to the Ottawa area. So maybe that will get approved. Or maybe not. I'm trying not to get my hopes up. I was expecting kingston, so that kinda confused me... But yeah, miltary life = confusion. I think I'll get use to it eventually. Ottawa seems nice. I think I went there when I was really little, but don't remember. I've been reading a bit on their tourism websites. It seems like a good place to live..Ottawa Tourism

I also added a FEEDJIT to my blog...so I can see where the hits on my blog were coming from. I honestly didn't know that many people read it! I'm excited...and more motivated to post more.

Sarah is doing AWESOME with potty training. Honestly, I have found trying to get her to pedal a tricycle MUCH harder than potty training! haw! I guess she was just ready for the potty - not so much for the bike.

We've been going to a LOT of parks. Last year I think I felt the need to do the calaway, heritage park, $$$ activities. This year I've noticed that Sarah is just as happy to go to a local park...especially if they have a river/forest. I've been searching out a lot of new parks on the city of calgary website. I think Calgary has a ZILLION parks. I've found a few new favorites close by our house..that I never knew were there.

Calgary Community Parks & Playgrounds

We spent almost the whole day yesterday at Bowness Park. I spent a lot of my childhood at that park, so it was fun to take sarah there.

ok enough rambling. Time to do some work. AKA re-build an entire online math course. EEK! Luckily it's east indian lunch day...AKA YUM!

Emily, I did a co-op in Ottawa for eight months and loved living there. There are so many awesome and fun things to do. I think with kids it would be even better because there are many great parks and museums. Also -you're only two hours from Montreal which is fabulous.
