Miscellaneous Events

Over the past few weeks I have noticed that our weekend plans have slowed down a bit, which is usually the case around November before the busy of Christmas starts. Since we've been back, here's some of what we've been up to:

I met another Mom who lives in the subdivision who also has kids the same age as both Logan and Leah and have been spending time with her - we've gone for a walk, had a playdate and she also invited Logan to her son's 3rd bday in November! Logan had the the best time at the little Gym... and her son actually has the same name. My Logan was very confused at this bday ha!

Leah at a playdate with her friend Teegan. My giant baby is 1 month younger! Leah's getting better at the jolly jumper now... she can get herself to a cute little star jump for a little bit.

When Leah turned 5 months, we introduced her to solids... some oat cereal first and then this is the face she made along with a gag. So we tried rice cereal... the same. Baby food is pretty gross according to Leah. She still gags but a little less now that we add banana.

My cuties... weekend mornings are like this: PJs, Leah wanting to be close to her brother and Logan wanting nothing but "little Thomas" on his "little puter". This kid loves weekends more than us because it's when he is allowed to watch Paw Patrol and little thomas (youtube videos of people playing trains).

We went for breakfast with Santa in Ilderton the first weekend of December. Logan was not having Santa and clung for dear life to me instead of getting in the picture.

And THIS is the official picture with Santa. At first he refused to go anywhere near him and Aleksy and I were in a picture that he refused to look at the camera for. Then after some serious bribery and telling him not to look at Santa, we got a picture re-take and this is the result!!

Snowy weekends! This was actually the Monday after we got back from Mexico. Bam. Climate change... but Logan was excited to get out and go on a "snow adventure". Leah felt similar to me about the weather change and cried a lot of this adventure.

Logan's skating lesson session is coming to an end now (he will start again in Feb) and he has improved huge!! He goes all by himself and pretty fast too! Especially when he's chasing after the little plastic balls or moving the little pieces the instructor brings (pumpkins for halloween, stockings fro Christmas) from one side to the other.

Sometimes it's fun to play in the snow. Especially when the 5 month old LIKES the toboggan (Logan hated it at that age!) and we can do turbo speed down the icy slide.

Anything to burn the energy pent up from being inside: play outside, even clean our basement which I have done over the past couple weeks so they have another space to play!
