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!

Ahem...anybody out there?
Oh my. Its been quite a long time since I've posted anything. I don't even have a reason because I am on this page at least once a day to get quick access to my favorite blogs. I.Just.Suck. At least I'm being honest and not making up any excuses, right?
So, maybe some quick updates from our Happy Little Home?
Since I've last posted, Mark and I celebrated our 4th wedding Anniversary! Time flies! We didn't do much because for reasons that I've since forgotten, we chose to get married on the 20th of bloody December! Um...hello!?! Christmas Panic mode is in full force then. We were lucky we had time to eat supper together at home never mind going out somewhere. I do love that we had a Christmas Wedding, I really do. I don't need anything fancy to celebrate our Anniversary anyways, it was just as nice to watch a movie on the couch with a fire roaring away. :)
Rhyan is in Club Volleyball mode as we speak. Lots of practices, games, fundraisers and watching our girl kick ass and take names on the court! Shes doing fantastic this year. There is something so rewarding about watching your daughter do something she truly loves and seeing her be her natural self with some of her best friends. I'd drive anywhere and do anything to keep her in this sport. She has made some life long friendships with girls she wouldn't have otherwise even met if it wasn't for Volleyball. She's babysitting all the time, making herself money and hoarding it away in true Rhyan fashion. Not sure where she gets that from. certainly isn't her mother! She's doing great in school and is just making us smile and laugh everyday with her wicked sense of humor and beautiful smile. 14 is just one month away. Gulp. We made it this far...we can do it we can do it we can do it!
Aedhyn-Ann is 2 and full of the devil. You just never know what this kid is going to say or do. She keeps us on our toes (Especially in public). Shes fully potty trained and sleeps in her big girl bed...well, until she wakes up and wants to snuggle in Mommy and Daddy's bed...then its Daddy who sleeps in the big girl bed while Mommy and Aedhyn get comfy in our room. I absolutely love to sleep with her. Its one of my favorite things to do. I loved sleeping with Rhyan too! She and I shared a bed until she was 7 years old! Sure she had her own bed, and would always start the night out there, but she would stumble into my bed by midnight. I know what you're thinking! But I don't care. They are only young once so I'm going to soak it up and milk every last moment I can. Aedhyn-Ann now goes to a private Daycare and she loves it. She is really fitting in there and talks about her friends all the time. Her teacher, Cheryl, is one of the sweetest women I've ever met. Her home is so relaxed and peaceful and I can say with 100% honesty that I'm completely worry free the entire time shes there.
I hope all is well with everyone who stumbles upon my posts and I can't promise I will be back soon, but I can try! :)

30 Day Challenge - Someone I want to give a second chance
Dear Fibre Op (OK, I know its not a person...get off my back)
I woke up this morning and noticed that you some how erased ALL my PVR'd shows that were being stored for a rainy day. Why? Have I done something to hurt you?
One more chance...that's all you get. Do it again, and I'm cancelling your ass.

30 Day Challenge - The last person I kissed
Dear Mark,
"I can't believe we are married". Its true. I know you always think that I'm saying it in a way I don't mean. I really mean that I can't believe that I found someone as sweet and caring as you AND that he lived 5 houses up my street my WHOLE entire life. Thats so bizarre to me! It was meant to be. I can't really remember what life was like before you. Our relationship was fast and intense and fun from the beginning. It didn't take me long to realize it was you that was missing from Rhyan and I's life. You joined our little family and we have been a team of 3 (until Miss A - now it's 4). I wouldn't trade my life for anyone elses. Also, it sure helped that you share a first name with the only celebrity on my "list". I love you.
Love,
Sheena

30 Day Challenge - Someone I judged by my first impression
Dear teenage boy cashier at Wal-Mart,
At first I just assumed you wouldn't affect my cashing out in any kind of way, good or bad, or offer any smiles or small talk. You sure surprised me! You were so friendly and funny.
I think your good natured personality is being wasted.

30 Day Challenge - Someone that pesters my mind...good or bad
These girls don't "pester" my mind....but they are always on it.
Dear Rhyan and Aedhyn-Ann,
You are always in my thoughts. Always. I know that everything I do, have done and will do in the future affects you in some way. Because of that you are both the very first thing I think of when I wake up just like you are both the very last thing I think about before I fall to sleep. I only want good things for you. I work hard everyday to be the mother you deserve. Some days I fall short, but I'm only human, and other days I make up for those shortcomings with special treats or fun one on one time. My girls are my whole heart. You are both my "sunshine".
Love,
Mommy

30 Day Challenge - The person I want to be
Dear PERFECT Sheena,
Your husband knows how much you love and treasure him and somehow you never get bitchy with him over stupid things. I love how you don't sweat the small stuff and try to live life day by day. You never want to call in sick and always wake up exactly when your alarm goes off, never pushing snooze...not even once, forget about twice. You never have cravings for chocolate or doritos and eat an apple every day! You're an expert flosser and it makes you so proud to not have the dental hygienist give you lectures every 6 months. You always give people the benefit of the doubt, and you don't judge others. You couldn't care less what others think of you and never let anything anyone has to say bother you! You always have time to do your hair and make up perfectly and never lose your blow dryer. You never complain about emptying the green bin or doing the dishes. You don't get overly competitive during simple board games, you never stalk your teenager via Facebook.
I want every statement you just read to be true. There are some days they are closer to being true then others, but nobody is perfect! :)

30 Day Challenge - Someone from my childhood
How do I choose?
Dear Jordan Knight,
You were and still are my favorite New Kid. I can't quite hit that high note you do during "Step by Step", but man oh man, I'm going to keep trying. You don't even realize how close my childhood BFF Tara-Lee and I came to having a throw down over you. I tried to tell her you prefer brunettes to blondes, but she wouldn't listen.

30 Day Challenge - Someone not in my Province/Country
Dear People of Newfoundland,
Can you all throw a couple bucks in towards a trip for me to come there? Without sounding too demanding, I'd like it to be during the George Street Festival. I'd like to stay here: http://www.newfoundland-hotels.com/26_monkstown.htm
May as well throw in some food and beer money.
Much thanks,

30 Day Challenge - The person I miss the most
Dear Amber,
I know we tell each other all the time how much we miss each other, I think I miss you more. I don't have any reason why, I just know its true. I think about you everyday. I'm always torn between being mad that my best friend is in Alberta and being so incredibly happy for you and how much you have accomplished since moving there. Way to make it complicated...jerk.
You are one of the happiest, funniest, smartest, most beautiful and caring people I have ever met. Your friendship has meant the world to me. I'm beyond thrilled that you found a great man like Ryan. Although I know that you are independent and will never NEED someone to keep you safe, I know in my heart that Ryan is the man that will do just that.
Love you
Miss you

See you in August :)

30 Day Challenge - Someone I have drifted away from
Dear friends from Junior High,
Did you have as much fun during those 3 years as I had? So many laughs and good times! I really loved my years at MacLennan Junior High. I loved the person I was becoming and all my friends who were all a huge part of that process. I still consider some of you to be my good friend. For those of you who I don't see anymore, thank you for helping me come out of my shell and giving me so many happy, funny memories. I'm very appreciative!

30 Day Challenge - Someone I wish could forgive me
Hmmm. I'm having trouble coming up with a post for this. I truely hope that there isn't anyone out there holding a grudge or not able to let go of something I've done in the past that has caused them any pain. If there is anyone out there who feels that way I hope they seek me out to tell me! I don't like unfinished business. I'm sure there are a few people bopping around feeling this way, I'm human and have made mistakes (1 or 2 haha).

30 Day Challenge - Someone who has caused me a lot of pain
Not interested in writing this one. The person who comes to mind is no longer in my life in a direct way so why bother! Life's too short to write letters to people like that :)
Trek Atlas
You may have read my recent post about the family of 5 who are travelling the world with their three children. The Ingram has been telling their story on this blog http://www.oursonnylife.com/
Little Trek passed away Thursday, June 21 in Thailand with his family holding him and singing his favorite songs to him.
I know that I will continuing following their adventure and will think of Trek often, as I have in the past 4 months I have been reading about him and his family.

30 Day Challenge - Someone deceased that I would like to talk to.
Dear Papa Hardy,
I didn't get to know you very well in the 7 years I had with you before you passed away, but I still feel as though you "get me". Not sure how I can explain it, but I just know you understand me and I feel like I understood you and who you were/are. The title of this post is supposed to be directed at someone who I would like to talk to...but I'm cheating a bit because I do talk to you in my head. All the time. Sometimes it's about things that are going on in my life that I need to get off my chest and can be overwhelming but I can't bring myself to say them out loud to anyone right away and sometimes it's about a silly thing one of the girls did or said that day. I don't expect you to answer me back, I can imagine you have quite a few people like me talking to you everyday. You're busy just taking it all in.
Thanks for listening.

30 Day Challenge - Someone I'd like to talk to more
Dear cousins,
I won't name names, but you will know who you are...
Whenever we get together all I do is smile and laugh and think to myself how much I adore you guys!
We don't see each other as often as we would like to because of busy schedules and life in general. I guess that is something that makes our visits so much fun and every time I leave you, I think that we need to start making time for more of those times!

30 Day Challenge - Someone I would like to meet
I've been thinking about this for a few days now. I've gone back and forth between political figures, movie stars, musicians, I've even considered the bloody Kardashion's for goodness sakes (but only for Scott Disick because I think he is frickin hilarious). I can't think of just one person I'm DYING to meet. But, there are a group of people who I get asked about probably 2-3 times a week. I've decided that is who I'm going to choose.
Ahem.
Dear Hardy's from Gabarus,
Are we related? I don't even really know? I usually say "no" to someone when they ask me if I'm a "Gabarus Hardy" or I say something like "oh probably from WAY back". Its so confusing. I just want to be a Hardy from Westmount but people in CB want me to be from Gabarus. I'd like to meet you to help me decide if I should just play along and say that yes, in fact, I am a Gabarus Hardy and I'm damn proud of it.

30 Day Challenge - Dear Internet Friend
This lady isn't exactly a friend, but I feel as though I know her through her beauitful heartfelt blog. I've been following her story for quite some time now and it's the most raw, sweet and heart wrenching tale. Her blog address is http://www.oursonnylife.com/ (I also have it on my blog list on the side of my page).
Her name is Chelsea Ingram. She and her husband and their three young boys have set out on a magical adventure travelling the world. Their youngest, Trek, is 13 months and was diagnosed with Neimann Pick Type A. Its a rare genetic disorder and is terminal. This family has recognized that they don't have much time left as a family of five and they are embracing life. Where most parents would curl up in the fetal position and accept defeat, Chelsea and Jarett have made the decision that they are going to make the rest of Trek's life the happiest, free living, and most comfortable time for him. I never know if I'm going to be laughing or crying when she posts a new entry.
I feel connected to them now.
Check out her blog, you won't be dissapointed.
So....
Dear Chelsea,
You will never know how much I admire you. Your strength amazes me. Peyton, Conner and Trek are so beautiful it almost hurts to look at them. Thank you for sharing your story.
