So after many weekends of lead up and then let down (because of that darn snow), we found a Friday and decided to take the day off work and the day off daycare and spend it at West Edmonton Mall World Waterpark. This was a first for Owen and Brandon and it had been a very […]

Galaxyland
Well it snowed again but since the roads were somewhat cleared the week following the latest dump of snow, we managed to brave the weather and head outside. After gymnastics we headed to West Edmonton Mall Galaxyland for the boys’ special treat day. Potty training has been going exceptionally well for both Owen and Brandon […]
Unexpected Snow Day
It was suppose to be a day at Galaxyland, a big reward for excellent potty training all week for Owen and Brandon. When they woke at 6:30 am all they could talk about was when they needed to get their boots and jackets on to go to Galaxyland. We opened the front door and boom […]
Potty Training Treat
We are still diligently potty training Owen and have started training with Brandon even more. Both Owen and Brandon have been having many successes and Mom and Dad are very happy to see such progress. This week Owen took a huge step forward, each night after story time and hugs he calls us to say […]
Merry Christmas…2010
Merry Christmas! We were especially lucky this year to have Uncle Derek, Aunty Colette, Zoe and Isaac here in Edmonton with us and Aunty Jodi staying at our home over the Christmas holidays. We were surrounded with family all through the holidays and while at times it was a little chaotic, a little busy, it […]
Gingerbread…train
Aunty Claudette asked, would Owen and Brandon prefer a gingerbread house or train? Hummm…that would be a tough question. Yeah right, a train of course! Aunty Claudette came over one night with a special craft to do with the boys. They were very excited to see a train and were as patient as they could […]
Christmas tree decorating
At about the end of November we started with the Christmas Tree decorating….there is Grandma K’s house, Aunty Claudette and Uncle Phil’s house, Grandma and Grandpa H’s house and then finally our house. All these houses need Christmas trees and decorating and who better to help out then Owen and Brandon! This was the first tree, […]
Being goofy
Owen and Brandon are quite comical most of the time. Here is one such time…they decided it would be much more fun to feed each other doughnuts… They were racing their horses one night. There was a picnic one Saturday morning. All the food was placed out and arranged just so. Owen and Brandon had […]
Two boys = hockey
It was inevitable, with two boys we knew hockey would enter the home soon….but already?! The YMCA offers a floor hockey program once a week for children from 3 -5 yrs old. It runs Saturday afternoon so it kind of interferes with nap time but Sean and I thought we’d take an chance and see […]
Telus World of Science
In November, specifically Remembrance Day, Sean, Aunty Claudette and I took Owen and Brandon to Telus World of Science to see the Lego Transportation exhibit. They found the whole place really interesting and hands-on. There was the first room which was concerned with all things to do with the weather. Here the boys got to view […]
