flipper


Flipper has been fitting in well. You might say 'he's just a fish!' but he's got cute little personality, he's the most entertaining pet fish I've ever had that's for sure. He makes these crazy bubble nests, and then hides under them, peeking out at you if you come close to the bowl. The kids love to make faces at him and get him to puff up his gills. And best of all he's super low maintenance, and loves his bowl a little on the grimy side...hey what's not to love!!

christmas update


Wesley was super into Santa this year! he had a million questions and was over the moon excited. It was a lot of fun. The main things he wanted revolved around construction of course. His favourite thing was the construction pylons (from home depot)and they are in the front lawn right now surrounded by hydro one gas flags he's been collecting from all over the neighbourhood.






Isobel's favourite part of the holidays was the next door neighbours blow up Santa. She was totally obsessed! she wanted to hang out next to it all day, and said good night to it from her bedroom window every night! she would disappear and we would find her standing on the back of her chair in her room looking out the window "checkin' on Santa!"

look who's two :)


Here's the last post I did a few months ago, when i was having troubles with posting, a little late, but you get the idea :)

 
This last weekend we celebrated Isobels second birthday. Seems like time really does fly! She had a great day, lot's of cake and presents and well wishes :) Here's a few quotes from the last few weeks in honour of our little monkey...

"I not a princess...I a construction worker!!!"

" I NO LIKE DAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

"You da superviser?"

"I WANT TRAIL MIX!"

"You like daddy? I like daddy."

"I wear jeans...no dress."

"Wessy at school, we pick him up at 12."

" I GO SEE MAUII"



happy squirrel appreciation day!!

 
 
For those of you who don't know, it's squirrel appreciation day!  We started celebrating early yesterday with a trip to Lemoine point to feed the critters. We put some extra seeds and some extra trail mix out today. We do love our squirrels :)
 
With that out of the way it's nice to be back to the blog. I was having some trouble with space, but it seems to have been a problem with google, not me...hurray! We had a good Christmas and the kids are settling back into January. The weather had been pretty good here, we've been outside tons! Isobel has even been enjoying the outdoors the last few weeks, which is a big jump so far this winter.
