Bike Riding




On Friday, Scott and Ethan came home with a new bike for Ethan. He still hasn't quite got the hang of it. I think this bike may be a little to big, Scott rang into a good saleslady. We still need to get him a helmet, so he's only tried it out once.

On Saturday, we went to visit Lynn, Gerry and Shelby for a bbq at their cottage in Turkey Point. It was a horrible day, rained pretty much the whole time, but the kids had fun. Neither one of them slept much on the way there, but were in pretty good spirits until right near the end.

On Sunday, Olivia and I went to a baby shower. Our good friends, Jerry and Michele, are expecting their first son in September. It was during Olivia's naptime, but she did pretty well. I am attaching a picture of her in the baby's new room, she really liked all the colours. You can see her smiling, usually the camera is too slow and I miss it!! Ethan and Scott hung out at home. We then went to the Brick to buy a new mattress in the hopes that this will help me sleep better. Our current one was a hand me down from my dad and is at least 15 years old. Ethan had lots of fun jumping on the mattresses and playing on the bunkbeds!

Today, Olivia and I went to Gymboree. She didn't like it so much today, got mad when I tried to make her do tummy time!! Ethan was not happy at all about going to daycare. He started crying when I turned in the direction of the school. He tried to pull one over on me, he asked if Pauline, one of his teachers was going to be there. I said yes, thinking that he was looking forward to seeing her. He replied "I don't like Pauline and I don't want to go" - too funny. He also tried telling me that daddy already took him to preschool last night, so there wasn't any preschool today. As usual though, once he was there and calmed down after I left, he had a good time.

The last picture is one of Olivia. As you can see, she sitting up great and drooling a ton!
