Ethan finally got to play soccer on Thursday. We missed last week because we were in Victoria and the two weeks prior to that it was cancelled due to rain. He had a great time. They learned throwing in the ball and then had an actual mini soccer game at the end. None of them really got the concept, but they had fun chasing the ball.

On Friday, we went to the mall to try to find Ethan a Car's backpack. Unfortunately, the Disney store was all sold out. We were able to get a Car's lunch bag. Ethan initially didn't realize the difference, but figured it out today when he tried to put it on his back and there were no straps. So if anyone comes accross one at their local Disney Store, let me know. I am told they are in very high demand and most stores aren't getting anymore.

Today, Ethan, Olivia and I went to Nana Charlotte's house and hung out with Nana and Auntie Michelle. Scott has been gone most of the day/night at Jamie's stag. Ethan had a funny conversation with Scott today while we were at Nana's house. Scott wanted to talk to me and Ethan said "No, it's my turn now, you can talk in a couple of minutes" - sharing when it suits him - too funny. Actually, he is generally a pretty good sharer.

His newest thing is now when you ask him to do something and he says no, it is followed by because...(and then a reason). At first the reasons didn't make sense (i.e.: I can't get dressed because it's sunny) but over the past couple of days the reasons are starting to make a little more sense, even if the reason is only because he doesn't want to.

Olivia is doing great. She is wanting to stand all of the time now and is greatly improving her tummy time!!! I am once again having technical problems with the transfer of pictures and my technical expert is not home, so I am going to post some from our trip to Victoria.
