Traffic Watching

Little Miss is just like her sister and loves to watch the traffic fly past our house…

Pre-Pantomime

My wonderful parents got us three tickets for the pantomime today. They kindly kept Baby C at their house and we took J out for lunch before the play. She was so excited to have a day with just her mom and dad!

The Last Day

Today is J’s last day at daycare. This morning while I was getting ready to rush out the door, the living room fell silent. J has had major mixed emotions about her departure from daycare and I wasn’t sure if the quiet was another meltdown brewing or what. This was the very pleasant surprise waiting for me when I stuck my head out the kitchen door! J has been reading out loud since the day we brought Baby C home from the hospital (I had suspected for a while that she was reading more words than she let on), but this is the first time I’ve seen her sit and read to her sister. It makes me happy.

Good Morning!

Baby Happy, Baby Sad

We took C to the library yesterday and she got her own library card and J and I picked out some books for her. One of them was called Baby Happy, Baby Sad. She commiserated well with Baby Sad and ignored Baby Happy!

Blanket In Use

Oh yeah, we love the blanket!

Over The Bridge

To Baby With Love

You might say that J is a tad bit excited about her new brother or sister. This rainbow is the first piece of art J made for the Boxing Bean.

Ready For Advent

J's advent calendar is set and ready for her to get up tomorrow morning and read her first little slip of paper and (tomorrow) open a gift! Yay. I'm excited for Christmas to be here this year.

Macaroni and Cheese...Kind Of

Dressy Puppy

Yes. That dog is wearing a dress.

That's all.

Carrying Only Baby

J loves carrying Only Baby around on her back. The play silks are awesome for that! [And yes, the doll's name is Only Baby]

BBQ Season Is Here

Slow Loading

I've started loading songs onto this baby...it's taking forever...and we have hundreds of CDs...sigh...I keep telling myself it will all be worth it!

Cement Trucks!

J is obsessed with cement mixers and other large equipment. She was thrilled today when we told her we were going on an adventure. Ocean Concrete on Granville Island had an open house and J to pose beside some of the machinery, touch some of it, and even "drive" some of it. It was definitely an exciting day!
