We had a great time at Stampede this year and Stevie finally went on the rides and he could not get enough of them! We played games ate greasy food, saw the fire works and had a wonderful time. We didn't get to the car until about 1:00 and both boys were still wide awake, Cooper didn't even nap! We hit a bunch of breakfasts and lunches and Stevie's favorite were the chocolate pancakes at the Chinook breakfast, as you can see in the picture!

Both boys wide awake at 1:00 AM!!
MMMMMM Chocolate Pancakes!!
We have spent a few weekends at the lake enjoying time with the family and trying out some water sports. I have yet to get up on the wake board or the surfboard but I vow to keep trying. Steve quite enjoys the wake surfing but is not convinced that wake boarding is for him! I just love being in the water and will keep trying to do something on the water, as by brother Shane said, maybe tubing is for you, lol. We are very lucky to have the farm as our personal camping place and very lucky to have generous family that will share their water toys with us! Stevie loves it out there, Cooper loves being outside, and to Daisy (our dog), it is heaven on earth. Daisy will sleep for 4 days when we get home from a weekend at the lake!

Paige at the lake, I just loved this picture!!
Stevie is getting far to old!! We were at the zoo with some friends and their son was calling my Renee. Well Steven thought this meant he could call me Renee too. I quickly corrected him and said my name is not Renee it is Mommy, well then he piped up and said, "no, your name is RENEE and you are a MOMMY". Well how could you not laugh!! Stevie has made the big step and no longer wears diapers!! We had to do the naked thing for a few days but it worked. We also bribed him with Tattoos, that was his choice, he didn't want food, he wanted tattoos!! I am afraid of what might happen when he is 18 and can get a real tattoo!!
Showing off his tattoo!
Ste vies Granny (Steve's mom) took Steven to Kelowna for 11 days. I am missing him terribly but he comes home on Sunday. He sounds like he is having a great time and does not have much time to talk to us when he calls. I didn't know it would be this tough not to have him around, I think of all the time I wish I had a break, now I wish he was back and I never want him to leave again....I am sure that feeling will pass shortly after he is back lol!!
Stevie and Paige at Heritage Park
Daddy's little baseball player in training!
Cooper too is growing up. He is sitting on his own, he can sit up on his own, he is crawling already and he is trying to stand up holding on the the furniture. He is way quicker at everything then Stevie was and it really does scare me! He found the Dog food the other day and it has been a magnet for him ever since!! He really is an easy baby and I can not complain but he does have the devilish look and I know I am in trouble. He already shakes his head No and will talk back to us if we tell him not to do something!
This is his I'm trouble look!!
Steve is still Steve, as usual nothing much is new there! He really is my Constant in my life by staying so grounded and real. I am lucky to have him, and I am lucky he puts up with me!!
I am keeping busy, I am making barrettes for a lady in the neighborhood, I am working 8 hours a week for ING, I am selling/hosting Scrapbooking events and I am now chasing after 2 boys. Needless to say, the household chores have taken a back seat so if anyone is planning to visit us please call first!! lol
I got to meet another one of my half sisters on July 7th, this is sister number 3 of 5. Her name is Kayla and she is 18. She is the first person I have met on my biological fathers side. I have to other sisters on that side that I would love to meet! I am hoping to arrange a meeting with them in September. I think we look alike!!
Well Steve and I are off for our 2nd honeymoon in just over a week. We are heading to Vegas for a week and we are both excited for this as it is the first time for us both since we turned 21! We are just going to enjoy the time and enjoy each other!! We are both in desperate need of a vacation!
Hope you all enjoy the pics! Take care!!
