 Ready for daycare Chevy It's Brits birthday today So I didn't film a couple of days this weekend yesterday. We went to Thermia Nordic spa again Today we've got doctor's appointments on her birthday for Theo and for me and she's got a chiropractor appointment We're just dropping Chevy off at daycare for the day Who's shy all of a sudden he's always so excited until we get here and he's shy I Take them in Every time and who do we got back here? Hi, we're gonna go see the doctor Yeah, you're excited Daddy's got to see the doctor too. We'll see the same doctor at the same time. Isn't that cool? Yeah, he's gonna check you to make sure that everything's good yours is more important than mine You're always more important to me. He was excited once we got it. Okay Every time we bring Chevy. He's so excited until we get here, and then suddenly he's all Gotta let daddy's finger go I gotta go drive the car. Hey He's got the baby grip. Yo, we got to go to mommy's chiropractor. She needs to crack a lot. There we go. There we go Don't eat your blanket. Okay, that's my food Okay, birthday gift to myself chiropractor visit it's been a couple years. I mean 25 you're 25 again Yeah and counting So our doctor is in Winnipeg So we've got to go to her chiropractor first and then Theo's doctor appointment and then my doctor appointment Which is the same doctor at the same time. So we all just go in as a family Then after our doctor's appointment We have a date at Costco Getting a membership. It's a big day for us. I know I've wanted one for so long We've been talking about it for years We don't have a Costco near us in our town where we live So we always got to go to Winnipeg to go to Costco probably the closest one would be transcode on the east side of Winnipeg but Well, we're going to the kenniston one to meet my stepmom's in. Yeah, she's gonna give us the low-down She's gonna give us a referral too. I think you get Costco money for it I'll take it. Yeah. Well, I think she gets the Costco money, but either way Family money, you know, we're excited. We come from family money Family money. $50. We have a referral. I don't even know how much this is. We demand our Costco bucks. I Have a referral. Kind of a big deal. I'm walking there all wrong Burgundy We should have put a bow tie on you today Why do we always talk about putting bow ties on you and the dogs and then we never do it? Now we have a baby that we can put a bow tie on and we never do it We need to get bow ties for him Baby bow ties You haven't lived until you've worn a bow tie really or put your husband in one and your dogs and children Facts What did you do diesel? What did you do? What's mom doing right now? She over there Did you beat on the gazebo even as I told him not to before I even started You know better than that diesel. I am so shall we Show showy. I'm so showy that I got caught At least you're honest This is our gazebo that we got. It's actually Brits dad and stepmom that gifted it to us And diesel likes to mark the back corner here Just not very nice and we got this goofball We cut down our apple tree finally when we set up this gazebo. Did I tell you that already or did I show you? So when we set this thing up We got all these power lines that go over our backyard, right and this thing had grown up Into these here and it died So before we set this up we cut that down so it wouldn't fall on it Good one chef But we left that as a pea stump. However diesel would rather pee on the gazebo than on his very own pea stump Where'd it go chef? Oh, she's so sneaky and he's gone. How you doing Frank? How you doing? What year is it? Where am I? Who are you? Who am I? He's getting really old really old You need to cut this lawn again So we've got another dead tree back here. This is one that I'm more concerned about It's huge I'm gonna have to get an arborist or a professional in here to cut this one down because of all the power lines I've talked to one company who gave me a quote and they wanted $800 to come in here just to cut this one tree down I got a quote from that same company to cut down all three of these so we got these two big ones here They're doing pretty good still, but they're very tall and I don't want them to come crashing down on any of these houses here either they They could beat up pretty bad in the wind that we have here so they weren't $800 Just for this thing They wanted $3,000 to cut down these three thousand dollars per tree then does that sound normal to you guys It's not a little bit crazy to me But like I said, we have all of these wires hanging over our yard, which is strange Modern houses nowadays have all the wiring underground, but I guess this is part of the old Old way of doing things and we just have wires all over the place So I can't cut these trees down myself without taking out everybody's power Probably electrocuting myself in the meantime It's $3,000 I'm gonna see if I can find somewhere cheaper, but I mean I get it. It's not gonna be the easiest job I'm going to be repainting the house this year too because we've got Issues with the paint peeling all over it. I tried to patch it up last year, but Didn't quite do the trick You can see it's I don't know what kind of paint they used Whatever it was and it's pretty cheap You can sort of tell where I've patched over it last year Little bit so we got to do a bit of a better job this year and this paint that we got wasn't exactly well The color was perfectly matched, but this was more glossy than the regular paint So you can obviously tell if you look at it in the right light where I've patched it so Very soon. I'm gonna be trying to scrape as much of this paint off as I can sanding it down and Repainting it just on the bottom up. There's still fine That paint held for some reason this paint didn't It's all the way around the house like that look at this People before us obviously just painted over it too because you can tell even where I didn't patch it You can tell it's been patched before the paint so someone at some point used the wrong paint on here and Now we've got a deal of it So we keep this thing closed up to protect it from the rain and such Here we got a nice little visiting area. So it's an older gazebo But hey, it's better than nothing, right? I really like it You can obviously we usually open up this whole thing get some airflow through here It's nice to be able to sit outside and not be eaten alive by mosquitoes The mosquitoes have not been bad this year like how's it been where you guys are? Here usually we're just getting eaten alive At this time of year by mosquitoes as soon as the Sun goes down, but like knock on wood There's been no mosquitoes this year not one It's been amazing. I don't know what happened. Did we spray or but you know, I travel all around the region I haven't really seen a whole bunch of mosquitoes anywhere even Minnesota and Minnesota and Manitoba We share our state and provincial bird is the mosquito I'm pretty good But yeah for Brits birthday went really well. I took her to Thermio on the weekend And we she went for her chiropractor Appointment we went to our doctor's appointments all as well. Theo is a hundred percent healthy He's actually advanced for his age. The doctor said that four times, which was really encouraging and awesome to hear and Everything other than that went well, we're gonna head back on the road tomorrow It's just a little update for you just hanging out at home getting stuff done You find your way in Suddenly I see a nose poke up underneath there There's a diesel the doors over here. You just walk in over there. Come on up here. Everybody misses seeing you It's your birthday this month. Did you know that? Yes, you did He's turning. Hold are you turning? He's turning 12 years old Can you guys believe that when I first started making videos here on YouTube? He was just a puppy brand new You're as old as this channel is it's pretty warm in here though. We should either open up these curtains or Go inside in the air conditioning. What do you think? Should we go inside? It's been a pretty cool July I feel like we sort of got jipped out of summer a little bit July is usually one of the hottest months of the year here in Manitoba like really hot It's felt like fall time almost all of July there's leaves all over our our yard and our trees are losing their leaves Because it's been so cool. That hasn't been like really cold, but I Hear reports from you know the other from Europe and stuff that they're just melting out there That's just scorching temperatures. It's been pretty cool out here. I guess every year is just a little different I mean, it's called the weather right it changes every now and then August now is supposed to be really hot. So hopefully we'll get some good weather in hopefully hoping to get some good beach days in yet We'll see what happens. I just wanted to update you just a little bit here I should have you went to daycare like I was telling you got a bunch of things done errands running around But we'll be back on the road in tomorrow's video. So I just wanted to say thanks for hanging out with me And I'll see you tomorrow
