Today after work we headed out as a family, both kids wanted to sit on the back seat of the stroller. So we squeezed them in, and they actually seemed happy about it.

Today as we walked home from the store, Jacob tried to walk along the narrow wooden divider hear our house. He was pretty good at it, though he still needs to hold one to something or someone.

Today’s pictures is of Violet and Jacob enjoying there Blue Barry desert. It’s amazing how much Violet loves eating at our little table. I think it might be time to retire her high chair.

Today was a family barbecue in Fenelon Falls, we had planned on attending but with Melissa’s hectic work schedule over the last week and continuing into next, it just didn’t work out. When we first told Jacob he was quite disappointed.  It worked out for the best when Nana and Papa decided to take him along with them. As they were heading out I snapped todays picture, Jacob doesn’t seem to impressed does he?

Today Jacob built himself a fort the way I did when I was a kid, bed sheets and furniture. I snapped this picture of Jacob while he played with his Jesse in the fort.

Today we spent the day at Nana and Papa’s celebrating Melissa’s aunt Debby’s birthday. There was swimming, fun, food and cake. On our way out I snapped this picture of Nana with her grandkids.

First it was Jacobs DS, today its Papa’s iPhone. While we were at Nana and Papa’s today Violet took a real interest in iPhone, and it has me wondering what gadget I can get my little cupcake so she can stop using other people…

Today after dinner the kids and I took a walk, first to the bank and then the park. When we got the Jacob ran to the apparatus to play with the kids. Violet on the hand only had eyes for the swings.  So I picked her up and set her in the swing. After a while the kids left and so Jacob came over to Join her. Between pushing them I snapped this picture.

My little girl was a tired little cupcake after a full day of fun with her Nan. One minute she was eating her dinner and enjoying her CupCup, the next she was snoozing.

Today was a good day at skating. Jacob stayed with the class and listened to the teachers. He also managed to glide for a few seconds. To be fair it wasn’t long and ended with him on the ice, but it was great to watch. He’s really trying to go fast on the ice these days. I’m really hoping that his skating will click this fall the way his swimming did at the beginning of the summer.
