So, there is not much new going on around here... we are pretty much settled into the house, and into the community. We finally got our PEI plate on the car. I still have not gone to get the PEI drivers licence... it cost so much! We are still trying to find Chris a new job. This is a hard task to complete, as he has to find an employer who is willing to work with imigration to get a work visa. This is about a one week process, if the company has already advertised the job to Canadians. So, we are in the waiting game with the places he has dropped off his resume.

Gabby has hit the terrible twos BIG TIME.... and she is only 17.5 months! If I let her run loose in the house, she loves to go to the mud room and put on my shoes and walk around the house.... I want this to stop before the snow starts coming... just think of what a mess that will make! Another thing she enjoys with her new found freedom is going up-stairs, BY HERSELF! That's right! The child will sneak upstairs and get into her toybox, having a grand old time. I'm okay with her going upstairs, because she is good at it... but going down is still a struggle, and I am afraid she is going to fall one of these days... A fall down these stairs could be deadly... they are very steap and narrow (80 year old house)!

She has yet to grow anymore teeth since we got here... she still just has the 8 front teeth... I thought for sure she would have some molars by now, but no, nothing new in there. She does love to brush her teeth though! She is so proud of them!

Christian loves it here! When we told him there was a possibility that we might move to New Brunswick if we can't find Chris a job here, Christian got very upset! He has made a few friends, and loves living so close to water (we have water front property). So, here's to hoping Chris gets a job offer!

Well, I think that is about all I have update wise. We are all doing great! The baby inside of me is very active, even more so than Gabby was. She is bound to be a soccer player or dancer... can't really tell yet.

why don't you get a gate for your stairs and one for the doorway of the mud room?

You should post some pictures of your new house. :) I love old houses, and it sounds like you have a neat place!

I need to take pictures... and then spend forever uploading them since I can only get dial up out here.... As for the baby gates.... they wont work at the stairs... since we are renting, I can't put screws into the banister... but trust me, I want too! I have been looking for a pressure gate that will work un the doorway to the mud room.... it is hard to find much of anything on this island....
