Woooooooohooooooooo! The Tragically Hip rocked the K-Rock Centre last night! In attendance was Julie, Ken, Michelle, Erin, Alex, Jen, CJ and me, and probably loads more people we knew. It was a great concert in a new great venue. The crowd loved it! Dan Aykroyd even sat in on 'Locked in the Trunck of a Car" with the band. He laid down some mean harmonica. Here's a shot of Gord Downie pleasing the crowd!

Here's Jen and I at Sam's Brass Rack having a beer before the concert. There was two guys there that drove from Baltimore Maryland to see the concert! HOLY SMOKES!

Poker at my House!

Last night we had a 19 person poker tournament at my house. It was so awesome! Complete with drinks, munchies and pizza. We started with three tables of 6+ people at each. The top 3 from each table made it to the final table of 9. It took about 2 and a half hours to get to the final nine. The lucky nine were: Alex, Joey, Justin, Eric, Ray, Darryl, Ben, James and Ted. The top four people were winning prizes: $270, $135, 85, and $55, respectively. Nice prizes!!!!

So after more than hour of grinding at the final table with HUGE blinds Ray walked away the winner!!! Congratulations to Ray who just learned how to play Texas Hold'em three weeks ago! WOW! You gotta love beginner's luck! Justin took 2nd place, Eric took 3rd and Darryl won 4th place. A good time was had by all. It was a huge success and we'll do it again sometime soon!

Red Wing Live

Go Wings Go

Wings play Senators

On Jan 12, 2008 Eric, myself and Maxime ventured off on a McCoy Bus ride to see Detroit play Ottawa. Eric had not seen them live in about 4 years, so it was time to go! It was also our Christmas gift (thanks Eric:) This was Maxime's first NHL game, actually his first live hockey game ever! He enjoyed it up until the Ottawa scored and the Via rail make believe train honk its way through the stadium at extremely high decibels! The he would cry hysterically, made me feel like a bad Mom for taking him, but incidentally it was the only time he cried, so we chalked it up to him being a true Red Wings fan....... a proud moment for Dad:) But despite Maxime's protest the Wings lost 3-2, an exciting third period as the Wings tied it up from being 2-0, but then Ottawa scored with 4 minutes left. Steve Yzerman also dropped the ceremonial puck, as he had been inducted into Ottawa's hockey hall of fame that same weekend, this was a real treat for Eric. Really Eric should do this post as I may be butchering it, but I have the pictures on my camera, so here they are!!!

Maxime on You Tube

Check out this video link of Maxime laughing, playing and in his Jolly jumper for the first time!

Maxime and Mimi

The Triplet's cribS

It was not until I saw the three cribs all lined up that it hit me "there is 3!!!" Any time in the future when I whine about being too busy, I'll look back on this picture and say "I have it easy!!!"

Brenda and Dave's Triplets

Grandpa Webster and Maxime

Maxime's first trip to Windsor to see Mimi and Grandpa Webster

Here is Maxime on the train:

It's Erin signing on to describe Maxime's first trip to Windsor to see to see his grandparents:) Eric suggested I might as well travel a bit while I'm off work on Maternity leave so I thought...."I'll take Maxime to see Mimi!"

Maxime and I left on New Years Day to "ride the rails", a 9 hour train ride to Windsor. It didn't seem that long because we sat with a nice girl, "Christina" who got on the train in Belleville. Also by the time I changed Maxime, fed him and he slept (repeating this sequence 4 times) we arrived to be greeted by Ron and Denise, right on the track!

We are having a wonderful time visiting, yesterday we saw Brenda, Steve and their adorable triplets, Sara, Issac and Dillon, aka "Dilly", each whom turned two in November. Brenda and Steve have their hands full, to say the least! They are amazing parents and you can tell by how well behaved the kids are. Both Steve and Brenda love babies, they scooped Maxime up right away and played with him the whole time we visited.

Of course a trip to Windsor is never complete without getting some Red Wings gear for Eric, shhh..... its a surprise:) Maxime also got spoiled by Mimi and Ron, scoring a cute Redwings outfit, miniature wings hat (just in time for the Wings game we are going to in Ottawa on Jan 12) and some PJ's.

There is more fun to be had since we don't leave till Sunday, so I'll post again when we get back to Kingston.

You wanted tongue? Here's you go!

Merry Christmas, Love from Eric, Erin and Maxime

We are heading over to the Island this morning to spend Christmas day and eve with the "Merry's", we hope every one has a wonderful holiday!

Tongue Man.....Picture to follow

Maxime has learned to stick his tongue out, its too funny. I'll get a picture hopefully, but currently he hides it when the camera comes out! He also has graduated to the "neglect-a-saucer" as my friend Robin calls it ha ha (excer-saucer). He is getting better at sitting up and can almost roll over (Winston and Jacky are trying to help!)

Red Wing Fans!

Maxime is now 4 months old:)

It's been far to long since I last updated the blog! Soon Eric will be able to take back his post and updates will be more regular! Maxime was 4 months old on Nov 26/07 and he is growing fast! At his Dr. apt. last week he weighed in at a whooping 15 lbs! He is almost double his birth weight. He was 61 cm long and has dropped a bit in his height/length percentile, from 92% to 74%, but he's still a big boy! He fits into 9-12 month clothing now, hard to believe he use to be sooo small! He is very talkative and is really beginning to grab and suck at anything he can reach:) He loves the dogs and now pays notice to them and smiles at them. He will begin Starfish swimming lessons in January so he can get accustomed to the water. Maxime doing a bit of traveling this past weekend to the "One of a Kind Craft show" in Toronto with Gramma Merry and Aunt Julia. He was so great to travel with, never even cried, except when the car got dark! He is a wonderful baby, happy and healthy! Eric and I just soak up his cuteness everyday and feel very lucky to have him. Soon Christmas will be here and Maxime can see all his cousins again! Till next time.....

Maxime at his Second Wedding

Most people have only been to a few weddings in their lifetimes, well... Maxime has been to 2, before he is was three months old! I don't know where he gets his social abilities from?? Here are some pictures of Maxime in the Church and Chantal and Jeff, what a beautiful bride!! We forgot to get a family shot, duh! Maxime is also developing fast! He is now grabbing objects and bringing them to his mouth. He also is beginning to use his legs, tries to stand while on our laps. He is a charmer, smiling at anyone who pays him notice! I am not sure how much he weighs but he must be close to 14lbs by now. He will be Baptized this weekend on Wolfe Island, the same parish we were married in, pictures to follow:)

Homecoming

Eric and Julie had fun this year fighting the crowd on Aberdeen Street a few weekends back. They saw 6 cops bring down a guy, COOL! Here is their traditional snapshot.

Football and Aberdeen

Its Homecoming!

Traditionally Eric loves this weekend being the Queens grad he is. He and his pal Julie (also a Queens grad) will be heading out to the Football game today, Queens Gales against the Waterloo Warriors. Then its the victory or loser walk back from Richardson stadium. Then dinner, drinking and down to Aberdeen street! Will give updates! Here is a shot from last year......
Have Fun Guys:)

My Bee Hat

Here is a snapshot of Maxime asleep in his rocker chair after a trip outdoors to help Mom work on some chores. It got chilly out so Maxime is sporting a hat which was given to him by Susan, a colleague of Eric's at RMC. It is an adorable hat!

More on Maxime...Live from Alfred Street

I am temporarily taking charge of the Blog postings (Michelle's suggestion:)because Eric is running from job to job this fall, working at St. Lawrence and RMC, he's a trooper and he is working very hard, we love and appreciate all your efforts! So....Maxime had his 2 month needles yesterday. He was great after, no fussy mussy or fevers. It was probably worse for me to see him get the needles than for him to get them. He had 2; one for the regular vaccinations such as Diphtheria and Mumps... the other one was for ear infections, blood infections, meningitis and the flu. Also he weighed in at a very respectable 12lbs and 1 oz, (it sounds like he's a bass at a Wolfe Island fishing derby, he'd definately be a first prize winner!) He also grew 3 inches since birth, now 24 inches and his head circumference is 5 cm (now 58cm) bigger, so in other words he's growing:)He is 92 percentile for length, 72 for weight and 50 for head size. So he is doing wonderfully and continues to laugh, smile and is now starting to notice dangling toys and likes to occupy himself with this fun new discovery. The dogs and cat are also doing well. Winston looks for Maxime when we come home and let him out and Jack likes to be near him, keeping a close tab on him, it is very cute to see! The cat can't be bothered, she just wants her food and an open door to the wilderness in the back yard. The whole family is just about adjusted to the little prince Maxime:)

After a Bath

Maxime in Jeans, how grown up! He is with Mrs. Walton:)

Maxime is 8 weeks!

HI All
Maxime is growing fast, he has a Dr. apt. tomorrow (Thursday Sept 27/07) for his first set of needles (done at the 2 month mark). I will update the blog with a weight, but I am guessing he is close to 12lbs because 3 weeks ago he weighed 10lbs and 8 oz. He is very alert now, focusing on everything with great intent! We have stared to look at simple books with large patterns, colors and shapes, and he will look at them for about 10 minutes. He is also starting to read "les livres Francaise", (French books for those non-French):) He is enjoying his wakeful times, now starting to giggle frequently, of course his parents are quite funny, or funny looking !??
My Mom thinks he is playing strange already, normally this occurs at 6 and 9 months, as he generally seems to want "Mommy" to hold him and cries when anyone else does. Some say I am spoiling him but research states you can't spoil a baby under 6 months and you have to attend to their crying.... so for all you skeptics out there, look it up:)
In summary: he is a great baby, not much crying and very content, we are super lucky!! Oh yes and he is also very handsome!

First week of classes is DUN! D-U-N!

So, Erin and I took that CBC Test the Nation test last night that focussed on the English language. It's not surprising to me that I did not receive a stellar score. I score 48/70. 69%. Yucko. I guess I have read more and play more words games to improve myself in this area. Luckily I have MS-Word spell check to save my bacon regularly hee hee. What did you get on the test? If you want to take it you can find it here: http://www.cbc.ca/testthenation/


So I had to put a spelling mistake in the title of this posting to remind myself to read the dictionary more HAHA! Firsst week of class at SLC is under the belt. YEAH! Second week starts today.

NEWS: Maxime now weighs 10lbs 6oz as of last Thursday! YEAH!

Smiling

HI Everyone
Maxime is now smiling (and its definately not gas). He loves songs and any type of direct attention, there are traces of Merry in him, ha ha. He is also getting use to a nighttime routine, last night he slept for 7 hours, not sure I should have let him go that long without food....? But he'll make up for it with some future marathon feeds:)
Hope to see everybody soon!

Maxime is doing great!

Mommy and Daddy are getting used to their new life with their new munchkin Maxime. He's doing really well. More pictures will be available as soon as people stop visiting long enough for everyone to catch their breath HAHA! Last Monday Maxime weighed 9lbs 1oz at his checkup. YEAH! He's getting bigger! Hugs and kisses to everyone. Take care. -Eric

Maxime regains his birth weight

Congratulations to Maxime who weighed in today at 8lbs 1oz during his doctor's appointment. He has now surpassed his birth weight of 8lbs. YEAH! (*grin*)

Maxime is born!!!

It's a boy! 8lbs even. 53 cm long with a head circumference of 35 cm. Born 27 minutes after midnight on July 26th, 2007. Maxime George Raymond Tremblay. He's perfectly happy and healthy, and he's busy enjoying his new world.

Erin is doing really great. About 24 hours after her c-section, she
stopped taking her narcotic analgesics (morphine) because the pain is
more manageable now. Sleep deprivation is setting in but that's a small price to pay for this little cute baby. Little Maxime is doing equally well. He's
working hard to learn how to breast feed with Erin's help. He's very
cute and now weighs about 7lbs 5 oz down from 8lbs when he was
born. Erin is healing very well and after a total of 5 days in the hospital (since 4pm on Tuesday July 24th), the obstetrics team discharged both Maxime and Erin at noon on Saturday July 28th.

We're back home now and we're trying to settle into a routine and we're trying to get as much sleep as we can.

Want to help us? You can help us by not calling the house for the first few days. Erin is trying hard to sleep when the baby sleeps and minimizing the phone ringing will really help. Thank you all.

Now for what you've been waiting for..... see more pictures of Maxime on my Flickr account. http://www.flickr.com/photos/actionhamster/sets/72157601063713549/

We're back home

News! Back from the hospital. Water is officially broken. No contractions yet. We will relax at home until contractions kick in and are 5 mins apart. If nothing happens before 4pm... we are asked to go in for a routine check on baby heart rate and cervix dilation at that time. Then go back home. If nothing happens today at all, induction tomorrow morning. The baby will be here by tomorrow! YEAH!

The water has broken!

6am Tuesday! The water has broken. No contractions yet. Stay tuned for updates. No phone calls please. Leave a comment if you want HAHA

Canada Day Weekend!

We had a blast on Canada Day Weekend at the Cottage. Fun in the sun was mixed generously with food in the belly! Erin even took advantage of the nice weather to sport her pregnant belly! AWESOME! Only 3 weeks to go. Catch more pictures of the fun weekend on my Flickr site here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/actionhamster/

African Lion Safari!

We had a great weekend in Millgrove, Ontario (near Hamilton). We (me, Erin, Julie and ken) were visiting Chris, Jenny, Charlotte and Emily. While Chris and Jenny had some alone time away (read: Golfing Vacation!!!) we went to African Lion Safari. Check out all the pics on my Flickr site. Fun stuff!

New iPhone Video Leaked!

All I can say is this thing ROCKS! It does everything!

Ultimate Frisbee Pics

Thursday night in June... what does that mean? It means Ultimate Frisbee. I'm having a great time learning this new sport. It's really not very good but it sure is fun to play. Mark came out last night and showcased his photographic talent. Here's one pic below of Brian making a great jumping catch, to see the entire set just visit my Flick Site.

33 Weeks Pregnant

Erin is 33 weeks pregnant today! YEAH!

Genetic Experiment!

Here's a pic of me after a few drinks at the Shakedown Cruise! (Nice tongue Scotty!)

Sad.

The Red Wings have been eliminated from the 2007 Stanley Cup Playoffs. Very Sad. They had a great run this year: finishing 2nd in the regular season and in the top 4 in the playoffs. Congrats to the Red Wings on an excellent year. See you next October!!! I can't wait!

Shake Down Cruise Pictures are IN!

Go here to see the entire set.

Cruising the St. Lawrence

Erin and I have been officially 'shaked down'! We joined the friends, family and crew of the Canadian Empress of the St. Lawrence Cruise Lines on their 'shake down' cruise in preparation for their busy season on the river. It was soooo fun!

The theme this year was 'Lil Abner and Dogpatch. Now I'm old, but not that old. So I had no clue what this Dogpatch cartoon was. After some research (i.e. reading Wikipedia), I learned that it's kind of a hillbilly world. So... dressing up was EASY! Ken, Julie, Erin and I hit Value Village Friday night for a pee-your pants good time getting costumes. I scored some women's overalls, a straw hat and some huge pimpin' sun glasses that are so big they fit over my regular glasses hahaha! With this we were all set to board the boat Saturday afternoon for our 24 hours of fun!

We installed ourselves into our very cute suite on the boat - Rm #16. (Pictures will be coming shortly.) And then made our way to the opening ceremonies. After some time up on the deck socializing, the Grand Salon was open for dinner. We started off with a very yummy Prime Rib dinner. Afterwards the fun began. Everyone retired to their rooms to gear up their costumes for the Sadie Hawkins dance. (It's ok if you don't know what that means... because I had to look it up too.) Basically, it's a dance where the girls ask the boys to dance. Cute! Keeping with the theme, both Julie and Erin presented Ken and I some lovely plastic flowers that were taped onto our wrists with electrical tape. How sweet and how appropriate! HAHA! We danced the night away to country folks song with the live band: The Ozark Boys. Half way through the night a surprise Red Wings cake came my way courtsey of Tracy and Seb! HOW AWESOME! The entire ship sang happy birthday to me HAHA. So after filling our face with cake and dancing some more, we closed the bar on the ship at 1:30am. (Erin's a good sport for staying up so late without any alcohol to influence her decision HAHA)

The next day it was time for a delicious omelette for breakfast. We then disembarked in Rockport and bussed to the St. Lawrence National Park where we had a guided tour of a gunboat wreck that dated back to 1817. This gunboat was the last military boat made in the Kingston Dockyards. It was pretty impressive to see such a unique artifact. Afterwards, back to the ship. The sun was beaming and we took advantage of the beautiful weather to spend some time up top on the deck. Tony and I challenged Scott and Marwan to a game of shuffleboard and despite the fact that it was neck and next half way through the game, Tony and I won by a score of 132 to 67. Lucky! Unfortunately, we hadn't bet anything on the game.... so there were no spoils to the winner HAHA!

Lunch was next.... very yummy lentil soup, baked chicken thighs, and baby red potatoes.... and ice cream and thickened syrup for desert. YUM! We had some more time sunning up on the deck while the ship made it's way to our home port. Once we arrived it was time fro the closing ceremonies, which included a piano assisted sing-a-long about the life and times of Jubilation T. Cornpone (again... you've got to look it up!), we disembarked and said fairwell to our friends at the docks.

It was really fun! Cross your fingers that Erin and I get invited back next year. It was definitely a fun adventure!

Go Wings Go!

Bye bye Calgary! Welcome to the second round of the playoffs. Go Wings Go!

UFC Pahteee!

Another great UFC get together happened on Saturday night. With very yummy foods to boot!!!! Thanks to everyone who chipped in and to the hosts: Jen and Alex.

Chad Vader!

Are you a Star Wars fan? If so, the Chad Vader series is a must see! HILARIOUS!!!! Here's the link to Episode 1 on YouTube.

End of Season Floor Hockey Party

Well, I was sick Thursday night and I couldn't help my floor hockey team in the league finals. SUCKS! However, despite my absence they won their game by close score of 7-6. NICE JOB!

To celebrate, we had the end-of season party on Saturday night. It was a wild and crazy affair. Dubbed the SHOTTUB Party. It included 17 people, 122 shooters, 3 cases of beer, 3 bottles of wine, various pub grub yummies and one beautiful hottub! Details can't be revealed on this blog. What happens at the shottub party, stays at the shottub party HAHA!

Some pictures can be found on Facebook though (*grin*)

I've been sick!

Holy smokes. For the last 8 days i've been friggin' sick. Bad cold. It's still hanging around today (although I am on the up-swing!). Ugh. When will it end!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So many updates, so little time!

The last few days have been jammed packed with fun stuff. In reverse chronological order... here goes.

Monday: WOW! The Juncos are here! The Juncos are here! Last year I saw my first Dark Eyed Junco in my backyard on April 9th. This year it's on March 26th. Fully 2 weeks early. Holy Global Warming! YIKES! I spotted 5 Juncos today in my garden. Super cute!

Sunday: Awesome Frontenacs Playoff Game. Erin and I joined 3,100+ of out closest friends to take in the Frontenacs lose their second straight playoff game to Oshawa. It was an exciting game that I would ave paid double to see. It was a 'barn-burner' with a final score of 7-6 for Oshawa with the wining goal scored 6 minutes into Overtime. The Fronts dominated the first two period and after 2period the score was 6-2 Frontenacs. (It could have been 8-2 as the Fronts hit a cross bar and a post on two shots in the second). But for some reason the Frontenacs stopped attacking in the 3rd period and it was all Oshawa. They clawed back and scored 4 un-answered goals. Wow! Impressive. A very exciting overtime finish left the home team pretty dejected I can imagine. They've really dug themselves a hole now. Down 2 in a best of 7. Cross you fingers that they can stage a comeback.

Saturday: Maple Madness and Movie Night! In the morning, Julie, Ken, Terry, Michelle and the kids joined Erin and I for some Maple Madness at the Cataraqui Creek Conservation Area. We took the puppy dogs for the 2x 2.5 kilometer walk and they got super-muddy. Good times when couple with a round of very yummy pancakes! (*YUM YUM *) I'm a sucker for maple syrup. Saturday night was Movie Night. Erin and I saw Office Space and the Departed. Both excellent. I recommend them both.

Friday Night: Wii at Siobhan's and Cory. In a word: AWESOME! We had a great time with Tiff, Wayne, Wendy and Jen. (Jen had to leave a bit early... she wasn't feeling 100%). Not only did Siobhan and Cory make a fantabulous dinner but the entertainment was very, very.... I mean very FUN! Nintendo Wii. If you haven't heard about it then Google it. It's awesome. We played Golf, Bowling, Tennis and by the end of it I was totally drunk and sweating from all exercise I was getting from jumping around. The next day I felt like buying one... it is totally FUN! I guess I'll save my money for one someday HAHA

David Usher in Concert!

The Joy Luck Supper Club hosted David Usher in concert last night. It was quite the intimate affair with both David's parents being there as well. Great concert as usual and it was fun to hang out with Jen and Tony. (Two pregnant ladies at a concert! CrAzY!) Jen's a huge fan David Usher fan too! Erin and I bought the new CD. Can't wait to listen to the whole thing.

Facebook on YouTube

Hilarious!

Hot Off the Presses!

St. Patrick's Day at the Toucan was a HUGE success. 11 people began the marathon at 10am and most made through all day. Erin and I packed it in at 5:30pm. 7 and a half hours at the Toucan: that's a good days work! For me the highlight of the day was Jimmy Zackos and his Voodoo Doll! Tooo funny. You had to be there. Awesome good time!

St. Patty's at the Toucan: BE THERE!

St. Patrick's Day this year lands on a Saturday and is shapping up to be an AMAZING time. See you all there!!!

Kingston Canadian Film Festival

We caught four films at the Kingston Canadian Film Festival over the weekend. As usual they rocked!

The Shorts Package: included 9 short films that were really entertaining. Especially the Danish Poet. I can see why it won an academy award. Awesome. A+

Fido: The best time I ever had watching blood and gore! It's being released in theatres accross Canada this week. Funny Stuff! Very Funny! Three Thumbs Up. A+

Snow Cake: Excellent film about an autistic woman. Sygourney Weaver and Alan Rickman were perfect together. In a word: Dazlious! A+

The White Planet: Documentary about the North Pole. Awesome footage but lacked a little on the narative I found. I kept wanting the film to talk about global warming and it's impact on the arctic. They did touch upon the subject but it seemed like an afterthought. B+

This festival is great! We go every year.

Who's the card shark?

UFC at Seb & Tracey's

We had a really fun night last night at a UFC party at Seb & Tracey's. Loads of people came you: Rob x2, Michelle, Erin, Eric, Seb, Tracey, Jen, Alex, Glenn, Robyn, Renee, Mike, Christa and Kevin. It was a super fun crowd. It started with beers and snacks, followed by a few rounds of asshole, where 'yours truly', (that would be me...Eric) went from Asshole to President at a table with 8 people in 5 hands! NICE! I still got it baby HAHA!

And then the fights came on, people only took breaks from the TV to do shooters with Rob who's a master-shooter-maker. I was impressed with Seb and the flaming sambucas too. The fire alarm almost went off but that's ok... it was worth it HAHA!

Of course some Ultimate Drinking took place too. By the end of the night some people where feeling no pain. (**giggle**)
