Today I headed put to a pub to celebrate my Tom’s 35 birthday. During the evening the board games made an appearance.

Today while walking home from school the kids say a firetruck driving by and waved.  Seeing the kids waving must have been a cute sight, because  the truck stopped and the kids got to explore  it. They both seemed to really enjoy checking out the different parts of the firetruck. To be honest I’m a little jealous, I’d love a chance explore a firetruck.

Today Violet started dance class and so we have two pictures. The first, the official picture of the day, is Violet on the way to dance class. The second is her after.  All the way there she was excited. At the studio, before her class she was going up to the other little girls, introducing herself to all her new ‘friends’. I’m so glad my little girl loved her first day of dance. I hope she still loves it in the weeks to come. The only crying we had, was when I had to tell her she couldn’t join the girls going in for the next class.

Today was Jacob’s second Future Stars skating class. He did so well today, though it by the end he was getting tired. It seems that an hour on the ice after a full day of school, is a lot for our little guy. For our picture today I have Nana, Papa and Mommy watching Jacob skate.

Today Jacob started his second year of school. For the first time he’ll be going for a full day, and boy is he excited. To make even better for he has his best friends in his class this year.

Tonight we had a little different dinner. We headed out to a local Ti restaurant. Of course our little Violet was hanging out with Nana and Papa. It was nice to just spend the evening with Jacob for a change. We took the time out with Jacob to talk about the coming school year and about how we expect him to act when he starts school next week.  Continue reading “POD: A pre School Dinner”

Today the family went to the Ex, a great time was had by all and I would really like to take the time to write a full post about it, but today isn’t the day. Perhaps tomorrow I’ll find the time to go through the pictures and write-up about the great day we had. For now here is a picture of Violet from our last ride of the day.

Today while waiting for Nana and Papa to take the kids out to a birthday party Jacob once again showed off his amazing trick (POD: Amazing Trick). I just happened to have my phone out and captured todays picture of the day. He really enjoys showing off his trick, so much so he asked that I take video of it.

Today we headed out as a family, but going to different places.  The kids were heading out on an adventure with their Nan, while Melissa and I headed to an appointment. So I snapped today’s picture while we waited.

Tonight we had a visit from a little guy and Violet just had to hold him. It’s so cute that Violets love of babies isn’t limited to her dolls. When ever we see babies she always wants to talk to them and hold them.  So tonight she sat on the couch with Mommy and held baby Caleb. It was such a cute sight I had to get a picture.
