Dinner Conversations

Picture Taking

This is what you get when you are trying to take pictures of a 3 year old and a 1 1/2 year old!

Kate Dancing

Never Say Never

I said I would never drive a mini van...well technically it is a people carrier, or a seven seater. It is a 2006 Vauxhall Zafira. Andrew is thrilled with his blue car because it is the same colour as his best friend's car. According to him, she has a big blue car and we have a small blue car :)

Dressing Up and Creating Things

Kate, with a firefighter hat and princess handbag, talking on a mobile phone. Guess we need to work on her sense of style!

Pirate Andrew

Reading a book

We made Andrew a scooter out of cardboard and paper towel rolls. See him in action on the video below.

Other Summer Events

Going for a walk/bike ride on a beautiful summer day.


Sharing the rocking horse

He's having fun, she's annoyed.

Poor boy was so tired he fell asleep before Daddy finished the bedtime story.

We took Kate's crib down and she is now sleeping in a big bed. Seems a shame for a perfectly good crib to be unused. Hmmmm.

Summer Fun

Ok, so it has been forever since I've posted. I lead a busy life you know!! Here is what we have been up to.
The many faces of Kate while eating ice cream.



Andrew can't get enough ice cream this summer.

Kate trying to dress herself



Kate loves hats, or anything she can try to make into a hat.

Andrew is very creative when building with his Legos. He quickly discovered that if he stands on a stool he can build bigger towers.


Daddy surprised Andrew one day by building a tower that was as tall as the ceiling.

Sweet siblings

Kate feeding herself yogurt

Fun, Fun, Fun

Dressing up


Andrew said he wanted to wear this shirt to be like his Pa Pa. He called it his "PU" shirt :)
