So much to treasure in May!!
 |
| Potty training success! Better late than never! :) |
 |
| First picnic of the year! |
 |
| (it's November as I type this; I cannot believe Gloria was this small!) |
 |
| Surprise flowers on my birthday! |
 |
| Birthday bonfire with this sweetie. |
 |
| ...and this party girl.. |
 |
| ...and this little turkey (whose cheeks spontaneously combusted in a horrible rash this day. Probably didn't know what to do with sudden exposure to sun after a Manitoban winter. :)... |
 |
| ...and this goofball. |
 |
| Ellie was determined that I needed and badly wanted a scavenger hunt. (I'm pretty sure she could read her own hand writing, which was good. :) "Worms, yellow stuff, lawn chairs, children..." We couldn't fit the children in the plastic bag she brought along. Or the lawn chairs. :) |
 |
| Rash-face. Poor guy. |
 |
| Consulting the scavenger hunt guide. |
 |
| So thrilled to be back on his wheels. |
 |
| Stroller ride = good times! |
 |
| We love the hospital. We go there and do risky things. Because we know the doctors are just inside that door! |
 |
| Best birthday gifts right. Here. |
 |
| Cuddles with Nana are worth more than gold. |
 |
| Birthday date with my main squeeze! |
 |
| He took me to buy shoes! Exercise, now there's a thought! |
 |
| Soooo comfy. |
 |
| Finished the date with a picnic in the park. |
 |
| Out of MANY benches Rob decided this one had the best view. When we sat down we realized it was in loving memory of someone with the same name as my Gramps, who's in Heaven now! |
 |
| Love those piano recitals. I would never have had the nerve at her age. |
 |
| 10 months! Best age ever. |
 |
| Micah learned to draw people. |
 |
| Gloria learned an alternative use for snacks she didn't care for. |
 |
| Mothers day wiener roast. |
 |
| Kash, charming as always. |
 |
| Best cousins! |
 |
| Prince charming. |
 |
| Little monkey. |
 |
| Everyone loves Auntie Dana. :) |
 |
| Drew: like a Ninja when you try to photograph him. Surprised him here. :) |
 |
| K. Who couldn't love those freckles? |
 |
| Mom and her grandkids. Contrary to appearances, Josh is not wearing a skirt. :) |
 |
| And....we're done. |
 |
| MUSCLES. |
 |
| Super Bapa! |
 |
| Probably the best picture ever. |
 |
| The adventurer. |
 |
| Getting some Nana love. |
 |
| Dish helper. She got a bit distracted. |
 |
| The scene that frequently awaits me when I come home from grocery shopping. :) Makes me feel like a queen! |
 |
| Another one of Josh's creations: a crocodile. |
 |
| It rained. A LOT. |
 |
| Ellie got splashed. She didn't like it. :) |
 |
| We convinced her it was funny. |
 |
| And she even forgave him! |
 |
| Miss this neighbour kid! |
 |
| My little helper. He prefers to ROLL the laundry. |
 |
| And thinks it's hilarious. |
 |
| Too-cool-for-school Josh pulls his brother around. |
 |
| When she still believed brothers were good and wonderful. :) |
 |
| Some faces are just nice to have around. |
 |
| This one too. |
 |
| Balls are the BEST. |
 |
Figuring out this crawling business. |
 |
| She will only eat one kind of lollipop. The pickiest candy eater I ever met. Not complaining. |
 |
 |
| Tough wakeup. :) |
 |
| But not for long. |
 |
| NEW LIFE!! |
 |
 |
| Micah turns three! We celebrate Robot-style. |
 |
| That dirty little face just needs kissin'! |
 |
| Robot relay race. We made Micah's guests work for their dessert. :) |
 |
| You go, Pastor Greg! |
 |
| ...and Pastor Rob! :) |
 |
| He blew through all the bubbles in his new bubble gun in one go. :) |
 |
| "What YOU looking at?" |
 |
| Squish hugs for my birthday builder boy. |
 |
| What a joy to celebrate this guy! |
