Toronto Visits

We have made road trips up to Toronto a few times in the past month!

The first trip we made up was February 20th weekend. Logan, Aleksy and I went to Toronto to visit his sister Alyssa and her partner, Jon. As Logan likes to call them.. Auntie Alyssa an Uncle Jon. We were very clearly guests of honour because Alyssa made us this delicious pie AND an apple crisp! We went for a walk around High Park, got some take out Thai for supper and after Logan went to sleep we stayed up late (that's 1am for us) and played some cards against humanity! We even had blueberry pancakes made for us for breakfast. Logan did great... slept the night with waking just once for his bottle then slept in!

Logan had his very first parent-free overnight with his Nana and Dziadek on a random Tuesday night after Aleksy scored free Leafs tickets at work. Spontaneous even with a baby! We went to Toronto Tuesday March 15th with Aleksys brother and his girlfriend Nicole. We got 4 tickets so they joined us for supper (at a random pub we googled because we didn't want to go to the Loose Moose for the 100th time) and for the game afterward!

The last time we got free tickets to the leafs game, we got the sweetest seats in the 100s. These were nosebleeds in the 300s.. so far away! And the ticket value was still at 100 at piece... so crazy!

I like hockey so I enjoyed the game but I don't love hockey so I would never spend the 100 per ticket plus transportation! And the beer is good but way overpriced (as it always is).

We visited the CN tower for the 100th time too! Such tourists that live 2 hours away!

After the game, a delicious street meat sausage, and the drive home, we didn't get home until close to 1am so we left Logan overnight at his Nana and Dziadeks. When I woke up the next morning, I couldn't wait to go pic him up first thing. He did so well on his overnight too!

I thought I'd show you what I mean by nosebleeds:

We are very lucky... like the Irish to have family to help and Logan had another overnight just a few nights later when we went to Burlington for Nikki and Jon Jon's annual St. Patty's party! This was pre-planned way in advance. We asked for Logan's overnight in February so we could party without having to drink responsibly for Mr. Logan. Although Logan didn't attend the party, he was dressed for it with his green ninja turtles shirt and St. Pat's gear!

It's always a good idea to take the pictures so well into the night... this is probably 5 hours in! My drink of choice was so tasty that night: coconut water and rum with a splash of pineapple.... yum! Like pina colodas without the crazy calories.

Our staying up skills were not quite as good as the other attendees but we did pretty good for us staying up until about 2am! And even though I could of slept in, I woke up at 8am and couldn't get back to sleep :( I was way too excited to get back to London for my baby! (he did well that night too, only waking for his bottle and sleeping in late!)
