Kids are funny. They absorb everything (especially the bad stuff) and put said absorbed info to use at other times when least expecting it. Usually somewhere public FYI. Our Aedhyn-Ann is a little geezer. You really never know what she is going to say. Sometimes it's hilarious, other times, its embarrassing. Most times it's a combination of both.
Since I seem to have trouble coming up with ideas to write about, I will start sharing some funny (and I must warn you, extremely inappropriate) things she has said.
I thought I'd share a particular funny one she said a few weeks back.
Her and I were leaving Wal-Mart and were waiting for our turn to pull out of the parking lot. She was quiet and just along for the ride. After waiting for a few minutes because traffic was heavy, I heard this teeny, cute little voice come from the backseat...." Nice blinker, Asshole".
Yep. That happened. That was the moment I realized I have to stop blaming Mark for all her four letter word slips. I've definitely muttered that phrase once or twice....

Whats 1 year, 4 months and 9 days between friends?
That's how long its been since I've posted anything on the GD blog. I don't think its a reality that I will be a regular blogger, but I really do enjoy putting my thoughts on paper a computer screen. I love thinking that maybe a few people are reading them and maybe having a little laugh (either with me or at me...I'm cool with either). Why don't I give a quick little update on all our crazy happenins at the Hardy-Dickie (Come on, I know you giggled at that!) household!
Mark and I are enjoying the summer together so far. Well kind of. We are both working, and have two busy kids and a pretty good social life, but we spend every night after 8 pm together. Usually at least 1 hour a night has been spent on Orange is the New Black. Mark was away working in Fort McMurray all winter this year. From December to the end of March. It was hard. Easily one of the most difficult times in my life. We had a record amount of snowfall this year. This chick (and my awesome teenager) shoveled ourselves our after every single storm. With the exception of some nice neighbours helping us out during the really difficult ones. Looking back on the winter, and remembering how hard it was, the emotion that rings through the loudest is how proud I am of myself, Mark and our girls for not only getting through it, we frickin rocked it! We also had a horrendous flood right smack dab in the middle of the winter. It was a sad day. We lost everything in our basement. But, thanks to my many family members and friends we got through it. I can't thank everyone enough who really supported us during the drilling season. Even though I'm not looking forward to next season, I know that I can do it.
Rhyan begins high school this fall. WHAT? Did I really just say that?
Shes such a light in our lives. She makes us laugh everyday. She also makes me want to pull out my hair (or better yet, hers) daily...but hey, shes a teenager. That's her job.
She finished Junior High with a bang. She was awarded MVP for her volleyball team and Female Athlete of the Year for her whole school! Quite a proud moment, let me tell you. I've watched her work her butt off. She played for a new Volleyball Club this year. She was a member of the Cape Breton Force 16U Volleyball Club. A few weeks into the season, she was asked to play with the older girls, the 18U as well. So she was doing double the practices, tournaments and fundraising for a little while. It was pretty intense and a lot of time but we absolutely loved watching her preform all season and give her best. She kicked ass, ifidontsaysomyself.
Aedhyn-Ann is still the hilarious, devilish little toddler that she always was, but she is getting more and more independent and mature every day. She is forever surprising us with what she understands and says. (ex: asking her babysitter if she has wifi. Say what?) She loves the beach, her trampoline, any and all slides and swings. Aedhyn always looks forward to sleepovers at her Nanny and BB's, she gets to eat treats and stay up late! She also enjoys helping her daddy garden. Weeding, watering, planting. She is still attending day care at a private center and she loves it. Aedhyn will be starting preschool in August! Can't wait to hear her stories when I pick her up from there.
I'm still plugging away at work, loving what I'm doing everyday and constantly learning.
I hope you all are enjoying your summer!
