team canada!



These words (not sure how many of them there'll be) are coming much later than I thought they would - the week flew by. Like I sort of said in my last picture-post, Montreal was amazing, and I'm pretty sure that - as long as we're able, time-wise - we'll head back up there again again again. Maybe next time we'll just kidnap Miss Choptain and spend the entire weekend with her, or infiltrate her working quarters and quarantine the work away muhuuhuhuhuhahahaha! Er, anyways, the rest of the week was good too - round two of vb camp went off without a hitch and all the girls (and guys) seemed pretty happy with it all sooooo yeah, that's good! And ouf. That was Wednesday and Steve got home Monday night and so I didn't really see much of him until Thursday and he left on Friday to come to Kingston for games contra Puerto Rico (the first one was tonight - big win woot woot!), so... yeah, next week's days off (Mon - Wed) will be amazing for Steve, for me, for our family and they can't come soon enough. I'm sure I have more to write about - oh, yeah, so get this: last night, because I had babysitters in town, I decided to dust the cobwebs off and go out - for the first time in hmm... a very very very long time. And! And I get a beer spilled all over me and my lovely purse - !! Go figure. I didn't stay out super late (12:30) and this morning wasn't as painful as it could have been (add more drinks) - the 6:30 wake-up call was a bit earlier than I would have liked but hey, whatevs. OOoooh and have I mentioned that I booked a flight to Vancouver? I am so stoked! Hendrik and I leave next Friday for two whole weeks, and of course I'm very happy-excited-etc that I'll see my friends and family and beautiful Vancouver but at the same time I'm a bit sad that that means another 2 weeks away from Steve. Mrrrrrr... but he'll be in Puerto Rico knocking down the opposition (in Team Canada's bid to qualify for the World Cup) so again, whatever. Time will pass and then we'll be together again.

Dan-o came out to the game tonight... yay!

Big win for Dad's team - hurray!

Hendrik and Dan - two of Dad's favourite dudes

And Hendrik will be 9 months in a week and a half, and it is so true what everyone says about the time just flying by - flying by at the speed of light I'll say. He has EIGHT teeth now and hmm, I'm not sure if there are any other really significant updates other than the fact that he only slept for 3 hours today (nap total) and was awake through the entire volleyball game tonight at the K-Rock Centre. Oh, and he's been a pooping machine lately... I'm not sure what's up with that but sure, @#it happens.

So tune in tomorrow night (if the timing works) to check out Team Canada show Puerto Rico they mean business - live webcast means the game starts at 7pm ET. Go team go team go team go!
