I Can't Believe The Two Weeks Is Almost Over...

Well, it's Thursday and the day after tomorrow Heather leaves for Winnipeg to catch her flight back to Australia on Sunday. The two weeks has gone by so quickly...we don't want it to end. We have had a fabulous time with Auntie Heather. Sari just loves her and lights up whenever Auntie enters the room! We have been busy visiting here in Brandon and spending time up at the lake. Sari likes the lake, but doesn't like the bugs...or is that her mother!! I don't have a whole lot to say, just that we have been having such a great two weeks.

Sari is growing like crazy and changing daily. She "talks" like crazy and has really learned to love her play time on the floor, kicking and trying so hard to roll over. She makes her daddy and I laugh every day. I think that she is going to have quite the funny bone like the rest of the Potters! I can't believe that she is going to be 3 months old on Saturday! Where has the time gone?! We love her more and more every day. How did we ever live without her?!

I have posted some of my favorite pictures below that have been taken over the past couple of weeks. Enjoy!

Welcome Home Auntie Heather!!!

Well, life at the Potter home has just been a flurry of excitement!! On Saturday we all welcomed my sister Heather home from Australia for a two week visit!! Way to short if you ask me! Ever since then life has been busy visiting and throwing parties...poor girl isn't getting the chance to get over jet-lag at all!

We celebrated Father's Day on Sunday over at my parents house. Heather got to hold Sari for the first time and I don't think put her down all day...well, except for when she cried and crapped her pants! Its so nice being the parent, we get to do all the dirty work! We had a wonderful time visiting with family. Last night Chris and I threw a party for Heather giving her a chance to see her friends and catch up. It was sooo much fun. I wish we had taken more pictures though. A good time was had by all...especially Uncle Spanky, (aka..Jason), he was starting 36 days of holidays and decided to celebrate! Sari really enjoyed her first party! I was really impressed with how well she did. Even with all the loud talking, laughing and doors slamming, (thank you Uncle Spanky!), she didn't wake up once! Who said you can't have loud parties and stay up late with kids?!! Chris and I were pretty tired this morning, but it was well worth it!

Sari is loving her Auntie Heather! I'm so glad that she was able to meet her Auntie before December. We love having Heather home and are not looking forward to her leaving again. Oh well, I guess that's the sacrifice that has to be made so that she can accomplish her dreams!

That's it for today, but I'm sure that there is going to be more entries to come filled with pictures seeing how we have a fun filled 2 weeks ahead of us!

Hangin' Out With Friends...

Well, not a whole lot to report. We are loving the nice weather and getting out as much as we can to enjoy it!

I have started to go power walking with a friend of mine, Tannis, who had a baby 6 weeks before I did, to aid in the losing baby weight challenge. We try to go every day during the week and do approximately 4 miles each time. The dads so graciously volunteer to get together and look after the kids while we are out on our walk. I personally think it is just an excuse for them to get together, socialize, and have a beer after work...whatever works though! The last time we were there we snapped a few photos of the kids. I have posted a few for you all to enjoy.

My sweet little girl!

Sari, Maddy & Cole...they play together so nicely!
"No I'm cuter"..."No I'm cuter"!

The dads doing such a good job...and loving it!!
