Happy Thanksgiving

Some highlights from our last week...


On the weekend, we went to Springridge Farms, Ethan really wanted to get some pumpkins. He had lots of fun playing in the corn mazes, painting pumpkins and going on a pony ride. Here are some pictures from our day!

We had my family over on Monday for a big Thanksgiving dinner and also to celebrate Papa's belated birthday. Ethan had a blast, everyone took turns playing with him. At the end of the night, after a lot of running alot and jumping on the beds, he went to bed without a peep. Here's a picture of Ethan helping Papa open his birthday presents!!

Olivia is doing really well. Over the past couple of weeks, she has learned to pull herself up on the Step and Play Piano and can stand on her own. The Step and Play Piano was also what Ethan first used when he started pulling up on things. She also likes feeding herself animal crackers. She is babbling a ton and says "mom" very clearly now. On Sunday she either said "baa baa" or "da da", not sure which one. As you can see from the picture of her standing, she has so much hair that she needs a barette. It looks really cute!!

Ethan and Olivia are very excited to have Michelle staying with us (a couple days a week). Although it looks like it won't be very long, as Michelle and Kevin bought a house in St. Catharines on the weekend. Very exciting news for Michelle and Kevin!!!

Last Friday, Ethan got his pictures taken at his daycare. He looked adorable and smiled great for the camera, can't wait to see the pictures. The photographer took a couple with Ethan and Olivia, but Ethan was too busy kissing and squishing Olivia, so I don't know if they will turn out. After the pictures, Ethan had a playdate with Shelby and Charlotte at the park. They had lots of fun feeding animal crackers to a pond full of ducks.
