TOTAL SHE

I recently attended a "Total She" party @ my sisters. It peeked my interest and i began speaking with the consultant. She informed me they are recruiting consultants and they have no one in the SE area! Well, being in sales and having a natural love for retail, the wheels started turning. I brought the idea home to Ivon and he said "absolutely!" (Im super blessed to have a super supportive husband). So, in April i will officially be a consultant for "Total She Inc."..im nervous as heck (big gulp)..but im really excited about the opportunity for a little extra income, a small break from the wee ones and a whole lotta personal growth :)
What is Total She??
A fabulous line of affordable jewellery. It can also be engraved! There is more than just jewellery, they also carry a line of body washes and bath products (all chemical free!) and a whole bunch more cool stuff!
Total she is a canadian buisness focusing their products primarily on women entrepenurs!
So, why dont chya take a peak at the website (www.totalshe.com) and if you are interested in having a party or taking a closer look at the catalogues let me know!

looking back...

I cant beleive Taiya is almost a year, i remember last year being uncomfortably pregnant, awaiting her arrival and anticipating having a little girl :) As much as i dont enjoy pregnancy, i kinda miss that big belly :) I thought just for fun it would be neat to post some pics of that big, swollen belly=) This was almost at my due date...

Thank you...

In the midst of all the things that people can be "down and out" on..i thought it would be a fantastic time to name a few things that im thankful for..

1)The fact that Tyler loves his swing

2)The chance to love Tyler, despite all the circumstances that surround fostering

3)Watching Rylen learn & preparing him for preschool

4)My camera, so i can capture amazing memories!

5)The relationship that ive been more than blessed with over the past year with my sister

6)Watching Taiya explore a whole new world with eating "real food"

7)The opportunity to shop & occasionaly spoil the kids =)

8)The MCC..i have found soo many amazing deals there!

9)Our church..and all the incredible people we have met there

10)The three little giggles that ALWAYS get me out of a bad mood :)

Rubber boots & water...

So, our Rylen is turning 3 this spring and he has changed incredibly!
I adore the way my parents raised me, and will be forever thankful. However, i wasnt allowed to get a little dirty outside, so i put Rubber boots, splash pants and a sweater on Rylen and let him go to town..these are things our little guys LOVES!
The Giggles and the excitment were so worth it! And, when he was done he told me and we came in for a nice warm bath right away. Praise Jesus for sunshine and little boys!

Staying at home...

Ever since Ivon went back to work its been really tough. Spending the evenings alone has not been easy. I do find myself wallowing in self-pity, because it really isnt that bad, and i should just be grateful, but i was really loving having him home in the evening. We were able to eat supper together, bath the kids together, and then enjoy some time alone in the evening together. We only ever get some time alone on the weekends in the evening. Its straining on our marriage. But, we have also learnt to cherish the time we DO have, and to count our blessings.
I am grateful for the people God has put in my life so it helps me to not feel so lonely. Love it :)

My "babsies"

I love these three little ones....they truly make me smile :D

update

There isnt really a whole lot to blog about. Today is Ivons first day back to work after having been in school for the last 8 weeks. I loved having him home every evening and most days he was home super early, so it was almost like a mini vacation. Im really going to miss him being able to go to bed at the same time as me, but thats ok, im sure soon enough we will have all adjusted back to our "normal" schedule.
We have so many things going on in our little life right now. More than i care to share, alot of uncertainty, but we are trusting God with all of it, and these are the times we find ourselves needing Him just a little more.
The kids are growing like crazy! Rylen is such a little person now, not just a baby anymore. Taiya is on the move and Tyler is just super content and smily, a totaly joy in our lives. There have been alot of mixed emotions in fostering, but we have embraced it and we are trying to just give the whole experience to God and allow Him to also lead us in this as well.
It seems as though we are always busy with something, it may not be anything really exciting or worth sharing, but it feels like we are constantly going...but i guess thats all apart of having kids :)
