Hello friends! I know, I know - Action Packed gets almost entirely neglected these days. I apologize. But lets face it - my full time job is now Motherhood, and so I have a lot more to say about that than I do about the (formerly) Action Packed Pletts. There is not a lot of Action around here these days, and if there is, it all revolves around James! But we don't mind that!
Ryan and I finally got out to see "007: Casino Royale" two weeks ago, on Saturday. It was the first time we had been out to see a movie since James was born, and it felt SO good. I enjoyed the movie a lot, while Ryan found it to be almost a little boring - we both appreciated the fact that the action parts of the movie were a little more "real" than some of the other ones.
It seems that Spring has sprung, which is encouraging. Of course, it is the cloudy, cold and mucky kind of Spring - but Summer is on it's way! Yay! I can hardly wait to get out into the yard, take James on stroller rides, and the like. Good times! It will also be fun to get back into the Plett's pool this summer. Seems like it's been a long time!

It has been a long process it seems, and it still feels like it is a slow start. It is somewhat disheartening when he leaves the house early in the morning, and only gets home around 6:30-7:00pm - to spend a few brief moments with James before he goes to bed. We basically live for weekends, when Ryan can finally have some quality daddy time, and I can get a little bit of a mommy break. Last weekend he took James out to arena to watch some of the Regals Cup.
Ryan wanted me to post about these Pork Cracklins that he tried to eat the other day. I don't really know the whole story, but I think his parents brought these back from New Orleans a LONG time ago. Well, Ryan decided to try them - despite the long expired date on the bag. Needless to say, I believe they made him feel quite ill. The type below the words "Pork Cracklins" reads "Fried Out Pork Fat With Attached Skin". Mmmmmmmmm...

We love you all, and hope that we can sit down soon and really have a good heart-to-heart.
heheh, the first time i rode with steve in the jeep YJ, there was an old bag of those things under his visor. I had to try one. I will never forget the taste and smell of greasy boogers-and I'm not just talking about our first kiss.
I wonder what the tree on the package has to do with anything? And how did they think that "with attached skin" was an additional selling point? Oh my.
Love the pic of James peeking out -- wicked cute.
