Hello to all. Yes I know this is late going up but such is life with a newborn. Right now she is sleeping so i'm gonna try and get this done before she wakes again. Not much has happen because I spent most of my time sitting a either feeding or rocking Margo. She has been my most fussy baby. She sleeps the best when she is held and won't sleep more than 30 minutes when I lay her down. Some days are better than others. She does sleep really good at night so i'm very glad for that. So back to Oct 4. Margo had her 1 month check up so we where in town that day. I don't remember what she weighed but now she is close to 12 pounds. The 9th was our Thanksgiving day. We had supper at church and I took ham and gravy. The 11th  we where in town again. The 12th Kelly had to work. When I say work I mean in GP and with fire stuff. The 13th I had to go to Amanda's house to plan sewing dinners. The 14th Kelly had to work. The 15th Kelly worked again. I braved it and took all three kids to church by my self. Heidi and Nigel sat with Isaac. In the evening Travis and Amanda gave to plan the last program. Bryon and Dawnalee came over and dropped some food off. The 16th Nigel had his 3 year check up. He weighs 32 pounds and is a happy healthy 3 year old boy. We went to town later on that day. The 17th I served sewing dinner. Yes I know i just had a baby but I wanted to get my turn over with. I had made all my food the night before when Kelly could take care of Margo. The 19th Nigel had a hair cut. In the evening we went to Lorne and Mrya's because Grace Fry was there selling fabric. The 24th Kelly, Margo, and I headed for Edmonton around 9 ish in the evening. We left Heidi and Nigel at Kelly's folks. We needed to be in Edmonton at the passport office by 9:00 am the 25th. We stopped in Whitecourt for night about 1:00 and slept for a few hours. Was back on the road by 6:30 and at the passport office in Edmonton shortly after 9. It was there that I discovered I had forgot all the paperwork that I had filled out at home. I had all my over paperwork just not the ones I had to fill out. So after a mini freak out I quick filled out her Canadian passport while we waited in line. Then when we got to the motel I printed out the rest of what I needed. The 26th we had an appointment at 1:00 in Calgary for Margo's US passport. Got it all done and it went really smooth. I had all my paperwork in order so it went quick.  The 27th I had an eye appointment in Edmonton because it has been a year since my eye surgery. I can hardly believe it. I have 20/20 in both eyes. Headed home soon as I was done. Got home later that night. The 28th was Nigel's 3rd birthday! We gave him Lego's for his birthday. In the evening we went to folks for harvest supper. We got Nigel an ice cream cake for dessert. The 30th Margo had an appointment with Dr Clow our family dr. We are trying probiotics ( not sure if it's spelled right) to see if that helps with her fussiness. The dr thinks that her tummy is messed up from the antibiotics that I took when I was sick. It does seem to be helping. She isn't barfing quite as bad but some days she does lots. The 31st we all went to the fire hall for Halloween.  They pass out candy to people when they come by so we went and sat there for a few hours. I help Kelly do a few things and the kids where quite impressed with all the costumes. The that was all for that month. Just a little up date on Heidi and Nigel. Heidi is still Heidi. Not much has changed. She weighs about 38 pounds and is in 5T clothes. Nigel is fully potty trained now except at night.  He is in 3T clothes. He has a few funny things he says one is "you hurt myself" when we accidentally hurt him or bump him. Heidi had a cute on as well. Nigel wasn't listening to her like she thought he should so then she comes to me and says" mom i'm gonna need some help over here" and then proceeds to tell me what was wrong. Well that's all I can think of for this time. Till next time....
