I'm Dreaming of a White Christmas ...

Is Christmas over yet????!!


I'm not sure about going sliding Maggie, but this ball is great!!!


You better pay attention to this part of the story Maggie

We finally had a few flurries - enough to try out Xander's new sled. He seemed to enjoy it. Well at least he didn't cry and in our house if you don't cry you must like it.

Merry Christmas!!!

We've taken a few pictures in the past few days. Maggie and Xander had lots of fun opening their presents and playing. They are now both tuckered out and napping. Thank you to everyone for all the wonderful presents. They are all very much appreciated.


Getting ready for a Christmas Party


Sitting on Santa's knee


Trying out my new sled - too bad it doesn't have wheels cause there's no snow in Ottawa


Checking out Elmo and Cookie Monster from my Nan Green


I love my new reading chair


Teaching Maggie the Jolly Jumper "ropes"




Had to find a new jumping buddy after I tired Maggie out


Tuckered out ...

Pat-a-Cake

Since Xander has learned to clap his hands - he can't stop. He will clap to just about any song with the word clap in it or when music plays. The other day I bought him a pat-a-cake bear and he sits in front of the bear and claps his hands along with it.




I hope Santa brings me some toys cause I have nothing to play with (NOT!!!)

It's Beginning to Look a lot Like Christmas

O Christmas Tree ...

Here are a few pictures of our outing to get our Christmas tree.

I'll give you the paper when I'm finished with this section

7 Months Old

I gave Xander toast for the first time yesterday. He was not entirely convinced it was food and he was supposed to eat it.





Getting ready for the Ottawa winter with my new jacket.


Taking a power nap before supper. Watching Baby Einstein is exhausting.
