Dr. Appointment update
The results from the Ultrasound that I had on the 14th were good as well except that my placenta is low which mean I may have to have a c-section, we will find out for sure in 6 weeks at the next ultrasound. As for the baby’s heart, the Dr. does not see any cause for concern right now and due to the baby’s heart rate being so strong he is sure the heart is fine, they will also be checking it out at the next ultrasound.
So that is all our news for now, I will keep you updated as we go.
Take Care

Ultrasound :-)
Just wanted to let you all know that our ultrasound today went well, although baby Crocker was a little stubborn like daddy (decided nap time came first) & wouldn’t let the tech get all the proper measurements of the heart and a few other things, we did manage to get a heart rate measurement which was 160 bpm. So we are back for another ultrasound in a few weeks. Other than that all is going well and baby is moving around more and more all the time.
We have a Dr. appointment on the 16th so I will be back with another update then
Take care

Just a blog
Just wanted to post a blog since I haven’t done so in awhile. Not a lot has happened in the last few weeks, Buster is Recovering fine from surgery and I think that his leg feels much better now.


This month has been a month of Birthdays. Moms was the 7th, Aunt Cathy’s the 9th, Rodney had his Yesterday on the 23rd, Andrews is on the 29th and Last but not least Samantha’s is on the 31st. So Happy Birthday to all of you and I hope you all had/have a Great one!
Rodney ended up working for most of his Birthday, but we went out to celebrate it last sat to a Restaurant Called Gulliver’s we had a very nice supper.
I have a Dr Appointment tomorrow, so I will be back to blog about that.
Till then Take Care
Love Janis

Poor Buster :-(
As for Rodney & I, everything is going very well, Rodney is enjoying work and I have started at my job, and I also am enjoying getting out of the house for a bit, it’s nice to meet new people. Our next Dr. Appointment for baby Crocker Is on Jan 25th and the next Ultrasound is on Fed 14th I will keep you all posted.
Pop Critch is doing well after his appointments with the heart Dr’s in St.Johns, He had a blockage in his heart but the put a stint in and now he is feeling like new, like Mark puts it “He just needed some new hardware and a bit of Drano ….lol”.
Well that’s all I have time for today, I have to get ready to close up the store. Take care and chat with you all later

lets try this again !!!!
Just wanted to post a few photos taken in the last little while and give a bit of an update,
The first is of bonnie & Clyde’s new home, we went to Winnipeg last Saturday and came back with a 90 gal tank, bonnie & Clyde just love it…I know we are crazy…

Next is one of Aunt Barbara and Uncle Ron, for those who do not know Aunt Barbara is My Nan Critches Sister who lives out in Brandon, It is great to have family close by and as a added bonus she makes a wicked tasting banana bread & a great newfie dinner…lol This photo was taken when they were in for a visit a few nights ago.

Last is “the bird” this is a ornament that has sat on the top of my Nan Critches tree longer then I have been in this world. When Rodney & I moved away from home we started a tradition that the ornaments on our tree would all be ones given to us and that have very special meaning, so to get us started before we left I went to everyone’s house to collected a special ornament and to get “the story” that went with it. This year Rodney and I notice that we didn’t have one from Nan Critches tree (because when we moved Nan had given us a bunch that are now used for our tree down stairs) So I called nan and asked for “The Bird” I figured I wouldn’t stand a chance but I had to try, I was happy when Nan passed it on to us with out even hesitating. The Bird was brought by Nan’s Dad for her Mom years & years ago, Nan figures it is over 70 years old. So I thank you Nan for passing something so special on to us and it will sit proudly at the top of our tree for years and years to come.
