Happy Thanksgiving!

I hope everyone had an amazing Thanksgiving! This long weekend was long over due at the Earl home. I cannot believe this is the last long weekend before Christmas! 

Friday night Carter stayed over night at his Aunties house. Logan went for a few hours too, but we picked him up. Cam and I went to dinner at the Milestone grill, but honestly it wasn't the highlight of our night. It was actually disappointing. Over priced and our server was terrible. Anyways, after we went to Toys 'R' us to play Santa Claus as the kids weren't with us. Take a look at the toys without someone screaming at me because he wants to play with everything in sight! Then we walked around Chinnok Center. Doesn't sound like a great time, but I loved it. Just being with my hubby is my favorite thing ever!

Saturday, we went to Cross Iron Mills with Logan. The to The Model shop and Cam got this mini Helicopter that you can fly with an RC. He is officially hooked. He has been out anytime he can, flying it around. I think it is only a matter of time before he starts begging for the bigger one. I got some new clothing! Which is always a girls favorite thing to do! We picked up Carter, and decided to wake him up from his nap to take him home, and we shouldn't have. He cried for over an hour! It was terrible. He eventually calmed down and we played Wii all night. Cam took Carter to that park and they flew his helicopter. Carter loooved it. 

Sunday we went over to my Sisters house for Thanksgiving dinner. We had such a good time. The food was great, company great! She has two little boys, and after dinner Carter and her boys ran around chasing each other for over an hour! Carter was POOPED! He went to bed sooo nicely!! 

Monday Cams sister and Brother in Law came to see us. We did an impromptu Thanksgiving dinner for them. They had gone to Banff to celebrate their anniversary and didnt get a dinner. It was nummy if I do say so myself. We had some good visiting played some games. They left and Cam and I both fell asleep on the couch after a great weekend. Hopefully can get some pictures from my sister of the boys playing.

Cam and I have told people more then once, "Carter is suspect Autism Spectrum Disorder". But after so many months of waiting, and having a specialist sit you down and say  "After observing you son, we firmly believe that he has Autism".   I now realize that I was not prepared to deal with the fact that Carter has Autisum.  I was, and still am, Devastated.  After the specialist told us of her conclusions she then asked , "Now after hearing that, how are you feeling? Are ok? Do you have questions? Can I help?" Honestly I thought I was fine. "We knew this was coming" I said. "I'm fine". Cams answer was the same. After she said "Yes, but sometimes having it confirmed makes it sink in, and you don't react how you thought you would". She was right. As soon as she said that I looked deeper and I knew I was ready to burst into tears. I wanted her out of my house and NOW. I knew Cam was dealing with his own feelings, so I h...

So i have been wanting to post all the projects i've been working on. But we are sick. Lovely flu. But the reason I am posting... Erica started rolling over yesterday! I could barley drag myself out of bed, but then i was greeted with this. She looks SO proud of herself when she does it too. Shes been trying since she was 2 months old. So I was wondering when she would get all the way. Shes 5 months in a week or so. She would only do it when you weren't looking. But now shes going crazy! She gets on her belly and tries to push with her feet. SO CUTE!!  She wont stay on her back anymore. Then when she rolls over she stares you down until you praise her. This is this morning. She is an old pro now.

What a HORRIBLE word. It is consuming. I wonder how many times that word runs through my head. I know at least once a day...... or twice.... or three or four or five..... ok ok 50! x 100.. anyways... On Saturday at work I helped this man. He didn't speak English well and I found him very frustrating. He thought it was $15 for EVERYTHING. Glasses, exam... everything.. He was suppose to go back in to see the doctor but walked out not realizing he wasn't done. (Were still talking about Fat hang in there). Last night he came back, and I avoided him like the plague. I could tell my co-worker was having a hard time with him too. Little did I realize why. Afterwards she told me that he was very confrontational and kept saying "Well the fat girl on Saturday said this". "But when I talked to the fat girl"......... over and over and over and over again. She asked me if I knew who helped him. Aren't I lucky? It was me. Nothing like hearing the thing you are mo...
