My Oh My!

It’s been so long since I blogged! Almost 3 months! A lot has gone on in those months, but I am not about to go through it all, so I’ll just post the main things that pop into my head…

On May 9th we got 2 little bobtailed kittens to foster for a month…they were so sweet! We got to name them so we chose Trixie and Pixie. The day I had to take them back to the SPCA was a hard one. I cried a lot that day! It only took a few days to get over it but I do still think of them and hope they get adopted into their forever home soon! We will be fostering some more kittens in the future too. :)



We are having a pretty lucky year here in the Layden household…Kristen won a contest through Family Channel and won a Liv doll, I won a Mother’s Day basket for charity that was worth well over $100, and Kaylee just won a $250 gift certificate last week towards the purchase of a bike & helmet! The local pharmacy has a contest at the end of every school year where you bring in your report card and then get a ballot to win one of 2 gift certificates (1 for a boy, 1 for a girl) and this year Kaylee was one of the winners! We went out right that afternoon and purchased the bike and helmet then my mom had to pick up the bike the next day because Barry was away overnight that night and I didn’t think it’d fit in the car. Here are some pictures of Kristen’s and Kaylee’s prizes!



On June 28th Kristen got a retainer for her mouth. She has a crossbite and when one of her top teeth came in, it came in too far back and wasn’t able to move forward because her bottom teeth were in the way. So, she got a retainer that has plastic below the teeth so the top teeth and bottom teeth aren’t touching so the tooth can move over top of the bottom one that’s in the way. It also has a little spring behind that tooth to help assist it to move.



The girls just finished up their Fun in the Sun Day Camp last Friday and they got to tie dye t-shirts. They wanted tank tops though so I went and bought some for them. I think they turned out pretty nice and the girls love them!



I haven’t done much jewelry to sell lately, just some pieces for gifts and myself. I have done some layouts though!




We are off to Ottawa for a week soon so I’ll be posting more pics after we get home!
