Our Summer Vacation! Part 1

Our Summer Vacation this year was a trip to BC for Chris' cousin's wedding. I also had the opportunity to shoot Wedding Photo's for the first time and I really enjoyed it!


Long time no post

Ha Ha, that could possibly be my most common post title.

Life as a working mom of two keeps me busier than I ever thought possible, throw in the fact that I am also back at school working towards a Certificate in Event Management, means I have very little time for laundry, never mind blogging.

Anyways, the kids are AMAZING, I adore all of my time with them. Abby is walking ALL. OF. THE. TIME. I always joke that she just walks for the sake of walking, she doesn't need a purpose as long as she is walking she is happy! Chris and I describe her as our Princess, she nows what she wants and how to get it and if you refuse a temper tantrum is sure to follow. Seriously, my 13 month old has tempur tantrums!

Josh is now three and a half and if you ask how old he is he will say three and a half. Is latest phase is asking questions about everything. We are passed the Why-a phase and now asks why is it snowing, why does Abby cry, why this, why that. It's like living with the Riddler! He is very energetic and has quite the imagination. Right now he loves to make up words that have no meaning but he thinks they are hilarious. He loves his sister so much and he is very protective of her.

So things are trucking along, the next few posts will be pictures only, but will capture important and fun moments over the last few months.

Naps!

I LOVE nap time!

So far I am very fortunate that Joshua takes a really good nap in the afternoon usually 2 - 3 hours. Lately, Abby has also been joining in the afternoon nap-a-thons, it doesn't happen every day, but the days that it does, is quite heavenly!!

Prince Edward Island

In April my Dad and I packed up the kids and flew to Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island to visit my Grandfather. The trip there was great, both kids did really well but I had brought Josh's carseat for the flight so it was a huge pain lugging it through the terminals during our TWO stop overs (Ottawa and Halifax). On the way back we checked the carseat but had a really hard time with Josh on the plane, not sure what the better option is at this point.


We had a great visit but some how I managed to only get a picture of Abby with my Grandfather and no one else, oops!


Here are a few photos from our trip.



We went looking for a certain beach (I can't remember which one), we never found it but we did fine one. It was really windy that day, by the time we went back to the car the sand had blown over our foot prints.



No trip to PEI is complete without a trip to the Cows Creamery. Josh got to experience his first milk shake.


Two cute babies in their matching Cow pajamas!
Abby changed a lot during the five days we were gone, she went from sitting in one place to being able to get up on all fours (not crawling though).

Thanks for the great visit Grandpa and Barbara!

Sitting Pretty






Abby can now sit independently and she couldn't be more proud of herself! It is great because I can now sit her on the floor with some toys while I prepare lunch or supper and she happily plays on the floor. It seemed she went from not being able to sit to being able to overnight. She never went through the tippy stage so she can sit for about a half an hour and be quite content!

A Spring Walk

We took the kids out for a walk together since it was such a beautiful day, we headed over to a local golf course and walked around, since it wasn't open it was a lovely walk. Josh had a great time throwing snow and Abby, well Abby slept the entire time!
