Day 120 - 2010

Marlee, C and I stopped by the waterfront to watch them load the boats into the water. It was really fascinating to watch the whole procedure.

Day 119 - 2010

The line up to see Smitty went around the whole building. Dad and Drew waited in line while I fed Mitchell with mom. Mom and Dad treated Drew and I for Drew's upcoming birthday. It reminded me of all the days we lined up for concerts while mentoring the youth. We saw some great concerts then!

Day 118 - 2010

The boys and their serious morning discussion over breakfast. Matthew is ready and waiting to wake daddy up every morning so that they can eat their cereal together.

Day 117 - 2010

The kids were occupied for quite a while with the wax sticks that K brought over.

Day 116 - 2010

Mom and dad brought over the divvy they brought back from the USA. All the things we can't buy here. Yumm!

Day 115 - 2010

There is nothing like messing around with daddy - especially when you get to go upside down.

Day 114 - 2010

We celebrated Sam's birthday at their house today after Matt's ball hockey game. We got her a gift inspired by Everybody Loves Money, an affiliation of the Flylady. It was the book Diary of a Wimpy Kid (one of Matt's favourites right now) with a message encoded inside directing her to find some additional cash. She was quite impressed.

Day 113 - 2010

Matthew's current favourite breakfast cereal - especially when eaten with dad. It has to be in this bowl, filled to the top with milk and any leftover milk goes in his sippy cup to be drank later.

Day 112 - 2010

So sad when the snack falls in the sand at the park.

Day 111 - 2010

Spring means visiting the green park and the spinning flower again.

Day 110 - 2010

Kristy treated me to a pedicure! I think it has been a few years since I have had one done. What a treat. BTW - documenting A Week in the Life. More posted at forsuchatimeasthis...

Day 109 - 2010

Matthew has been wanting me to bring Mitchell into his class for show and tell ever since he was born. I finally made it today. The kids were really neat about it. They had some questions themselves and the teachers helped it along as well. All in all we spent about 15 minutes there (Mitchell slept the whole time) but Matthew was pleased as punch. I think it made his day.

Day 108 - 2010

We got free tickets from the school to see a variety/ magic show at the college. We gave some other tickets to a few friends and watched the show together. It was quite entertaining for us all - kids and adults alike - and a fun way to spend the afternoon together. One of those things that you really aren't sure if you want to go to but ends up being a good time. Thank goodness!

Day 107 - 2010

We were a little late in getting out of the house but we made it out to the lunch sitting (pancakes and sausages) at the Elmvale Maple Syrup Festival. It was well worth the wait - and the company was pretty good too =)

Day 106 - 2010

Andrea has loaned us her fabulous stroller - it means Mitchell can lie down and doesn't need to be buckled in to go everywhere (perfect for back and forth to school!).
