Hey everyone!! Remember me?????















Here's a picture of the clueless parents of "one" enjoying a cup of coffee out of the house about 4 days before labour....









Who's in the closet???
















Crofton!!!!!!












Goofing around.













Me in labour at the hospital just after I arrived there. Went into labour Tuesday around 6PM, 24 hours later, I went to the hospital. I stayed at home until I couldn't stand it anymore.














And before I even knew what was happening, I went into serious hard core labour and had Everett Hugh Sherwood at 10:43 PM Wednesday, March 15th. I pushed for less than 10 minutes! Compare that to the over 2 hours of pushing with Crofton, and I can safely say that I kicked labours ass.




Our little family.














My new little bundle of joy. He is such a good baby!! Loving him is easy!!












I finally got to go home on Friday! I couldn't wait to be in my own bed!












At home in my bed. We spent the first few days cuddling. It was really lovely.



So folks, I do appologize for my lack of blogging, but as you can see, I've been a little busy. We also sold our house and bought a new one and are moving in on Friday March 31st. I can't wait!!!!

I hope you all still remember me and check in from time to time. Thanks for all the emails and concern about where I've been. It is nice to be missed!!!

Fla. Man Kills Roommate Over Toilet Paper

Tue Feb 21, 6:18 AM ET

MOSS BLUFF, Fla. - A man accused of fatally beating his roommate with a sledgehammer and a claw hammer because there was no toilet paper in their home has been arrested.

Franklin Paul Crow, 56, was charged Monday with homicide in the death of Kenneth Matthews, 58, according to the Marion County Sheriff's Office.

Capt. Thomas Bibb said Crow initially denied his involvement, but confessed during questioning.

Crow told investigators that the men were fighting about the toilet paper over the weekend when Matthews pulled out a rifle. Crow said he then began beating Matthews with the sledgehammer and claw hammer, according to an affidavit.

Matthews was beaten so badly he had to be identified through his fingerprints, detectives said.

Crow was being held at the Marion County jail without bond. It was not immediately known whether he had an attorney.

BELLY SHOTS

Feel free to skip this ....This week, your baby weighs a little over 4 pounds and is approximately 17.2 inches long. He's rapidly losing that wrinkled, alien look and his bones are hardening. His skull, however, will stay soft until after birth, to make it easier to squeeze through the birth canal. You may be waddling a bit now, as your baby fills out even more of your belly.
As promised...belly shots.
Although they aren't much better because I had to take them myself. Sorry they are so blurry, but at least you get an idea how big and uncomfortable I am these days!

WHAT A DAY!

What a great Valentine's Day I had, considering Rob wasn't here! I came home and there were these two packages on my front porch!!!!!!! I could hardly wait to open them!! They were from Cupcake and Big Mama. I can't believe how unbelievably sweet these two woman are! Here is Crofton dying to get into the boxes. I hadn't even gotten his coat off yet and he was trying to tear into them!





















This is a letter from Cupcake













This is me sampling one of her homemade cookies!









Look at all these goodies!!! The toffee squares were soooo good! Unfortunately, the box took weeks and weeks to get here, and most of it wasn't exactly fresh, but being pregnant, I managed to eat some of it anyway. I can tell they would have been sooo good when they were just baked!!
Thanks again Cupcake!!

Click on Photo to enlarge

And now for Big Mama's box!! I just about fell over when I saw all the stuff in it! It was FULL of all kinds of goodies!!











I absolutlely died laughing when I saw this! This may be one of the most thoughtful and creative things anyone has ever given me!!




Here's a better look at it. "Founding member of Window Lickers Anonymous" Shear brilliance!!


Of course she didn't forget the one in my belly...so here's a T-shirt for him too!! It says "Future member of Window Lickers Anonymous" All pre-shrunk and ready to go!!! Isn't that the best?




I ended up opening these up anyway, even though I swore to myself I wouldn't because by now I have already eaten a ton, but I just had to try them. And let me tell you.... They are delicious!!! I had to eventually back away from them.




How cool was this? I hand these out to homeless people, but here in Canada they are called Rockets... This could really confuse a few of the homeless people, but I think I will keep them for myself!

Lots of my favorite chocolate bars that you can't get in Canada!! Which rocked because I had just eaten the last one from Mel last week.







And then there were these Key Lime Cookies. (Which I am actually munching away on right now) They are just absolutely imposible to walk away from, let me tell you. When I got up to pee last night I had to go get one. Which ended up actually turning into 3.

Now last, but certainly NOT least...a T-shirt from Georgia!!! Like I said, i was completely blown away by my Valentine's Day boxes. Even though both Cupcake and Big Mama were upset that they took so long, I honestly don't thin they could have come on a better day!! Thank you sooo much you two!

"TOOOOOOT TOOT!!!!!!!"

That's right, I rock.....

I JUST SOLD OUR HOUSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm soooo proud of myself! I've done soooo much while Rob has been
away, it's kinda silly! I'm so happy! I got more than I thought we would too! Our house was only on the market for 6 days!! How great is that? I was going to do a whole bunch of stuff tomorrow, but I think I should take the day off and have a play day with my son. How great does that sound? Hope you are all doing great! Rob comes home in 12 days! I can't wait!!

WOW! 2 posts today! it's your lucky day!!

People have been asking how I'm feeling. I've been really tired and feeling really huge and uncomfortable. I can't believe how fast this pregnancy is going though. Thank you all for your concern...I'm ok, just bagged. It's nice to be missed and not forgotten though! here's a shot from today as I am house hunting. Not a very good one. i will get a better one. I promise!














In other news, Crofton started walking yesterday. He is still pretty unstable, but he's doing great! Look how big he is!!!




this is a brilliant idea. click to enlarge to read sign.

















Nothing like subliminal advertising right in the product lable. I didn't give in though. I stayed strong. I didn't drink it.

It's a fox






It's a horse









It's half fox and half horse?






I'm glad it had a whole in the top so I knew where to puke.






OK, so I guess you have all figured out that I am pretty much really busy and kind of burnt out from blogging. So I toned it down. But you are not forgotten! Keep coming back, you just never know when there will be an update! I promise to have a belly shot on here soon too! I'm feeling really huge and extemely tired these days. 2 and a 1/2 more months to go!!!!!!!

Another thing I saw


This made me laugh out loud. I get that he's supposed to hold a bottle of wine, but Rob and I couldn't help but crack up when we saw it. I always knew Santa was a perv.

Wednesday, January 11, 2006

So it's been awhile since I've pulled the pics off my camera. I finally did it last night and here's the newest edition of "weird things I've seen"


Rob spotted this leg. Let's just say some super hero had a really rough night.








I saw this homemade drink holder in a parkade and had to take a picture. It's carved out of styrofome.








OK, Now this guy kinda speaks for himself. He is by far one of the creepiest things I have ever come across. He could have been yours for only $19.99 at Liquidation world.
He's even freakier if you click on it and enlarge it.

Go check it out!

New post on Mel's and my other blog Panhandlers Gone Wild.

Sunday, January 08, 2006

fixed that link. go ahead and click it!

Ok, you all know Victor, one of my loyal readers. He had a post a bit ago that made me laugh really hard.
There was a pastor who visited some church and he called the next day to leave a message on the churches voicemail.

If the voice mail isn't funny enough, the music minister got a hold of it and mixed it into a dance mix.
Click HERE to check it out.

Then Victor decided to get in on the action and here is his son dancing to it! It's funny! Click Here.

So I have a solution to the camera problem, although it's a retarded one. My old camera uses the same memory cards, so I will just have to switch cards everytime I want to dowload my pictures. Until I figure out what the problem is, that is. Which will probably be never, so this is probably how I will do it from now on. Not that big of a deal really.

Woman Allegedly Hires Hit Man for Cheese

MEMPHIS, Tenn. - In an unusual case of mistaken identity, a woman who thought a block of white cheese was cocaine is charged with trying to hire a hit man to rob and kill four men. The woman also was mistaken about the hit man. He turned out to be an undercover police officer.

read the rest here...

Some people are just too dumb to live. I swear.

So, now I'm beggining to wonder if I too am too dumb to live.
PLEASE HELP ME!!!!! SOMEONE!!! PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ok, so today I am just completely frustrated. I have been trying to download my pictures from my camera to my computer for ages. I don't know what's different. Normally I just plug in the camera and the program pops up. Today when I plugged it in, something else popped up. I thought, gee, that's weird, closed the box and tried again. Now when I plug it in, nothing happens. I deleted the whole program and redownloaded the softwear, and still nothing. Plug it in and ZIP. Does anyone know how to help me? I am assuming that that little box that popped up was some kind of update and I deleted it before I even checked it out!! I have a Canon PowerShot A520 if that helps at all. I'm so frustrated now that I just have to walk away for awhile. I have some really great photos on there that I took specifically for you all to see, and I can't get them off my flippin' camera!

....and the winners are.....(drum roll please)

Well here it is....the moment you've all been waiting for! The winners to the Christmas Tree Contest! Thank you everyone who sent in your photos! This was not an easy decision. Partly because there were lots of really nice trees and partly because photos just don't seem to do justice to how beautiful Christmas Trees really are!

Best Bachelor tree goes to Phats. He was one of the only true bachelors that entered and i think his tree is great.









However, I just have to do a runner up in this catagory because Sideshow's Charlie Brown tree is so awesome!












Most beautiful tree goes t
o Goofy Stacy. Her tree was so pretty I just wanted to curl up under it!











Best child effort goes to
Pam. Her son decorated this tree and did a fantastic job!









Tackiest tree goes to Vince! This tree by far took the Christmas cake as far as the tackiest tree I've ever seen!








There were definately some honerable mentions in this contest! First of all, I dared Big Mama to get a picture of her sister in law's new tatoo looking over her shoulder with the tree in the background and did she ever come through!




Big Mama, "TOOT TOOT" to you! Your Fat Pig will be on its way as soon as I get your address!












Nutty had the Simpson's Characters on them , and that was really cool!












Mike H had an Oscar Mayer Weiner on his tree, and that made me laugh out loud! "TOOT TOOT!!" to you too Mike H! (Sorry Mike, Try as I might, I can't get your pictures to post either!! I tried and tried!)

49 Words had a beautifully full round tree, but I think he should get some smarties because he also sent in a picture of this awesome village he has set up!









SO, ALL YOU LUCKY BLOG CHRISTMAS TREE CONTEST WINNERS, CONGRADULATIONS!!!!! AND EMAIL ME YOUR ADDRESS TO
chersrobs@hotmail.com SO I CAN SEND YOU YOUR YUMMY CANADIAN SMARTIES!!
If for some reason you don't want to send me your address, that's cool, just know you have some bragging rights...I personally would take the candy. But that's just me, and I'm pregnant.

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL OF YOU!!
