Rolls – March 23rd, 2009

He still has a few rolls left, but photos like this make me realize how fast he’s growing from baby to infant… and soon to toddler. I don’t think I’m ready to let go of baby yet. I don’t think I have much choice.

It’s worth it for the cheap furniture – March 22nd, 2009

We took a trip to Ikea last weekend. I love Ikea. I could spend hours there just browsing and imagine myself in rooms with symmetrical furniture and ample storage. Of course my dreams don’t include assembling everything and they definitely don’t include trying to keep track of two children in a crowded cafeteria.
We left for [...]

Barricade – March 21st, 2009

I just love the story behind this photo -Thomas trying to stop Samuel from climbing the stairs… or more likely trying to keep him away from his toys.

A Milestone – March 19th, 2009

OK I finally got the photo I was looking for, but I had to work for it. It seems my innocent little boy has finally caught onto the fact the thing in front of my face 75% of the time is actually taking photos. And those photos are important to Mummy which means we should [...]

Signs of Spring – March 18th, 2009

Buds blooming and sunny days which means playing outside. I feel like we’ve been in hibernation, leaving the house only to go to work and daycare. Our neighbours adopted a little boy from Vietnam 6 months ago and I just the other day saw him up close for the first time. True story. I guess [...]

Rain Rain Go Away – March 17th, 2009

I am so tired of this rain. We’re supposed to be in the midst of Spring Break. I guess it really means a break from Spring because we had one or two sunny days and now we’re back to…well…blah!
And about that umbrella. We bought it because it is yellow but I didn’t really consider how [...]

The Many Faces of Samuel – March 16th, 2009

This kid is so incredibly happy. I have been spending a lot of time with him this week during spring break while I try and juggle time off from daycare with work. Thomas has been alternating between houses for a series of playdates that we organized with other daycare families. 
I take for granted the fact [...]

Into the Twittersphere

I just love it when I come across stuff on the web that explains how I’m feeling about a topic far better than I could do myself. I really don’t understand the attraction of Twitter and the video explains why. AND it’s hilarious.

Diving In – March 15th, 2009

Thomas recently finished up the latest term of swimming lessons. We were a little concerned at first that he may be out of his depth (haha) without Mummy or Daddy in the pool with him, but by the end of the 8 weeks he was blowing bubbles and putting (most) of his head underwater. I [...]
