Climbing

A little bit of help was needed to get up onto this chair, but I almost climbed it all by myself. No obstacle is too big for me!

Shaylah, where's your tongue?

There it is!

Hot wheels

Check out my new wheels (now that I am old enough to drive)!

Even I....

Even I have bad moments too. I can't be smiling ALL the time!

Another favorite

Another favorite activity...taking all of the toys out of the toybox (but not actually playing with any of them).

Bookworm

Reading has become a favorite past-time. It is the only thing I will sit still longer than 5 minutes for.

Spaghetti

Need I say more?

Hello/Goodbye!

Whether you are coming or going, it doesn't matter to me. I love to wave! I can do it with both hands or just one hand, depending on my mood. It sure makes everyone smile, so I just keep doing it!

A few more...

Thanks Kevin!

Here are just a few of the photos taken by Kevin James Day.

"Walking"

Last night Mommy showed me how to use my walker to get around. I am now wearing a path in the carpet from walking so much!

Stanley Park

For those of you from out of town, I thought you might like to see what the recent Vancouver weather has done to many of our trees. These pictures were taken at Stanley Park, but they do not come close to showing how badly the park was actually damaged. It was quite a site to see!

Nap time?

Not sure how I managed to fall asleep in this position, but any position works when you are tired from a hard morning of playing in the snow!

Snow Angel

Cousins

Ready or not....

Here I come!

Bananas

Can a person live on bananas alone? I would really like to try. I cannot seem to get enough bananas these days. Maybe there is some meaning behind what my Daddy keeps saying (i.e. that I am a little monkey!).

My first Christmas

We opened our presents at Grandpa's house on Christmas morning. I needed lots of help, but I had such a good time. I mostly just liked to play with the ribbons and bows, but the boxes were quite fun too. Later in the day, the Crick and Murphy families arrived and we got to do it all over again with more presents! Can we do Christmas again tomorrow?

HO, HO, HO!

Despite the worried look, Santa is not a bad guy afterall.

Merry Christmas to everyone. We hope the season brings many blessings and much joy to you and your family. May God bless you in the coming year!

My family

Bad Hair Day

On the bright side, I actually let my Daddy put me to bed 2 nights in a row without any fussing. Mommy is pretty proud of both of us.

Auntie Nita

My Great Great Auntie Nita passed away last night at her care home in NewWestminster. This picture was taken in April. She wouldn't open her eyes to look at me, but she stroked my hands and legs and told me that I was "heavy". Auntie Nita didn't have any children of her own, so we were her grandchildren and she loved us very much. She was very kind to us. We will miss her!

For Grampy Cecil

This post is primarily for Grampy Cecil's sake. I wanted to show off my new (to me) outfit from the Bridgewater Frenchy's. I went there just for you!

Peggy's Cove

Most of you know that we just returned home from visiting the Maritimes. I don't know who Peggy is, but her cove is sure pretty.

By the way, for those of you who made fun of us for going to Nova Scotia in November, these pictures were taken on the same day that Vancouver was blanketed with 30 cm of snow.

An apple a day...

If you have ever heard the saying "An apple a day keeps the doctor away", don't believe it. I have been eating nothing but apples and applesauce for the past 2 weeks (despite my mom's best efforts) and today I am home with a cold. Maybe I should give vegetables another chance afterall.
