It’s All In A Name

Posted by Janice On May - 31 - 2005

So Cosmo Baby will soon be gracing us with his/her presence. Which means that we gotta come up with a name for this kid – afterall we can’t make this kid go through life being called “Hey You” (though if we spelt it Jesus we might get away with it). Cosmo Boy REALLY wants a girl, a “little Marie” (he obviously doesn’t know what he’s getting himself into). So coming up with a girl’s name has been no problem: Sierra Nicole. Sierra – after the Sierra Mountains in Nevada (we got married in Las Vegas, Nevada). And Nicole? It just seems to go well with Sierra. For a boy, we’ve picked out the first name Hunter. Hunter is Cosmo Boy’s grandmother’s maiden name. But a middle name? We’ve been discussing that one for 8 months. Anyone got any ideas? Cosmo Boy has already shot down: Michael, and Matthew… Help!

Survivor Pool Results

Posted by Janice On May - 29 - 2005

Yes – the moment you’ve all been waiting for! I must thank you for your immense patience – I finally found time to watch the Survivor Finale that my friend taped for me – and yeah – it was totally worth the wait to see Ian give up his chance for a million $$ like that. Is he on crack? I love my friends and all – but seriously – who’d give up their chance for a million?

LORI was our ultimate Survivor winner with 24 points, followed closely by Pink Lady with 21 points, and Lazy Blonde with 19 points. Way to go everyone – and thanks for participating.

I will be sending Lori a wonderful Cosmo GRRL prize this week. (Probably a WalMart gift card because WalMart is Cosmo GRRL’s FAVOURITE store!)

Here are the results:

It’s A Free For All!

Posted by Janice On May - 27 - 2005

!@(memorial.jpg popimg: “Happy Memorial Day”)Today is the last Friday of the month aka Free-For-All Friday! Free for All means you can post whatever you want on my blog. (OK – it means I was too lazy to post today and now you have to do all of the work for me :wink: ). Say what you want to say, share a link, complain about household appliances, etc…all you have to do is login and post! Here is my suggestion, in case you don’t know what to post:

QUESTION – Since this is Memorial Day Weekend in the US – how do you plan to spend your holiday weekend?

For all my fellow Canadians – how did you spend your Victoria Day weekend last week?

I’ll go first: Last weekend, Cosmo Boy and I trekked up to our Nation’s Capital (Ottawa) for our last visit with his family sans-children. While there, I learned that Cosmo Baby’s Great-Grandmother, and Great-Aunt we’re throwing me a shower! This means that Cosmo Baby will no longer have to spend the first few weeks of his/her life naked…

Here’s how to do it:

Victoria Day?

Posted by On May - 27 - 2005

Well, I didn’t even realize it was Victoria Day last weekend, since it was also my daughter’s birthday. I did notice some fireworks but I thought we were all celebrating her birthday together. You know how thoughtful we Canadians are :)

I did go without my cable connection for 4 hours tonight because of the hydro spike in Ontario, so those lucky Americans can be thankful they’re not in Canada during their long weekend.

Happy holidays *woohoo*!

About Me

This blog is about me – Janice, a wife, mother, employee, runner, softball player, internet addict and a completely obsessed New Kids On The Block fan. My blog title is about my running, as at the time this blog began back in 2004 I was a running mother-to-be, training for a 1/2 marathon. Part way through the pregnancy running became too uncomfortable for me leading me to slowly back off on my running. Now a days “Mom On The Run” is a reflection of how busy life has become caring for 2 completely adorable, yet “spirited” little girls while my hubby travels A LOT for business, though I do still run on occasion.
