Honey Bear
J got Honey Bear from Daddy, but it’s a bit delicate, so Honey Bear visited daycare, but didn’t get to stay. J would only let me take it if I proved it came in to my office so it didn’t get lonely. So, here’s Honey Bear hanging out at my desk.

Heartburn Relief
Alex picked up some essential oils to help the Tums get rid of my heartburn. With J, I had heartburn much earlier and it was much worse, so I am thankful that Boxing Bean is being kinder to me when it comes to the heartburn!

Grown Up Date
Alex got tickets for the Home Show so we got a babysitter and made it an adult afternoon out. We went last year too…verdict? It’s much better when you’re not 7 months pregnant!

Swiss Army
That same parcel from yesterday also had this in it. I left it with Heather 8 years ago when I was visiting her and it ended up in my luggage and I had to take the Eurostar and knives were not allowed (obviously). We figured I would either pick it up the next time I came through London or she’d bring it back to me on her way through Vancouver…she visited us at least 4 or 5 times and I’ve been back to London twice since then…

Personalized Colouring Book
Today we got a parcel in the mail from some friends of mine – Maia made this beautiful colouring book for J to have when Baby Bean arrives. Each of the pages inside has a hand drawn letter or number on it.

Mini Toque
I finished this little hat while watching Downton Abbey…it’s small and it’s a quick little one or two evening project…turns out it’s too small because it took me so long to actually make it…I cast it on months ago and now the baby who was supposed to receive it in the fall is far too big for it…Baby Jack modeled its twin back in 2006…

Downton Abbey
So, I’m a bit behind with my tv watching apparently…my mom brought me the first two seasons of Downton Abbey and has promised to lend me the third season once it arrives…with no husband and a sick-ish kid who just wants to sleep, I’ve managed to watch the first season in two nights…it seems that I like it!

Window Seat
Alex is away for the weekend and my mom was supposed to take J home with her, but my sicky poo didn’t want to go. Instead my mom gave J some money to get a treat. She had enough to treat us both to hot chocolate and get herself an apple fritter (Daddy’s favourite…she might be missing him!) and a new book.

Counting Pennies
My mom and I took J to the park and she had a great time climbing in the fountain (it’s drained for the winter). She was particularly excited to find some pennies the workers missed when they cleaned it out in the fall.

Crashed
J has not been feeling well and cuddled up to the Baby Bean and fell asleep…I actually took this picture because I couldn’t see if she was awake or asleep and I didn’t want to disturb her.

Wallander
I’ve been on a Swedish crime kick (you can see that if you go here) and I just finished this book – I think it’s the second to last book in the series…maybe third last if you count the one with Wallander’s daughter….might be time for a new genre soon!

Pineapple
If we can’t be in the tropics, at least a piece of the tropics can come to us…J and Alex both love pineapple (me too) and if I don’t split the pineapple into two dishes, we have been known to polish one off in one sitting!

Can You See What I See?
This is J’s favourite book – the Toyland Express. She has the Christmas one as well, but of course it’s put away right now…I might have to go get a different one as she has almost got the pages in this one memorized!

Pilot
J, who is distracted by her camera, is the pilot of the plane (maybe she’s not distracted; maybe the camera is the control panel for the plane?) All of the stuffed animals behind her are the passengers. I believe the hat is required uniform for all pilots!

Duplo
After being homeless for a few weeks and causing more than one parent to exclaim after stepping on some of it, the Duplo finally has a home.

Purple Blanket
Now that Boxing Bean’s blue blanket is complete, it’s time to start on something more “girl” so I picked this purple with pink and blue accents (which you can see in its original incarnation here)…it’s going to be a baby afghan using my mom’s afghan pattern and I need to get moving…that blue blanket took me five or so years to complete and I only have three months to work with here!

Pizza Night
A couple of times a month we have pizza night on Saturday nights. J helps choose the toppings, I make the dough and we all get to top our own pizzas. Tonight J’s pizza has a snowman with arms and legs on it.
