Grandma and Grandpa's Garden

Grandma and Grandpa Steve have the most amazing garden.  You would not believe the amount of produce that comes out of their small back yard.  Every time we go for a visit we get sent home with a basket of delicious, fresh, home grown goodies.
Lola enjoys helping in the garden, but her favourite part is the harvesting of goods.  Especially the raspberries because you don't even need to put them in the basket you can just eat them fresh off the vine.

One day Quinn will be helping in the garden too, but for now he is content to just sit on the swing with Grandma and watch.

Visiting the Zoo

I've been lucky to have a number of wonderful friends to be on maternity leave with this time around.  We get together on Wednesdays to drink coffee, chat, and hold each others babies.  For one of our Wednesdays we decided to head to the zoo.
 The big girls taking an apple juice break, running from animal enclosure to animal enclosure is thirsty work.
 The giraffe is always a highlight of a trip to the zoo.
 Well, that and the merry-go-round.
 Alexandra and Cedric also really enjoyed the merry-go-round part of the zoo visit.

Next trip to the zoo, I promise to take more pictures of the animals.  I swear that there were lots there and we visited them all.

On Vacation

We are heading off to the cottage for a week, so content is going to be a bit thin for the next bit.  I have lots of photos and stories to share and will try to get them up shortly.  In the mean time here are some shots demonstrating Lola's body painting skills.


 She is available for parties if anyone is interested.

See you in a week or so!
