Vancouver Spring Chill

This spring break we needed to save up money so we didn't go anywhere. We regret that now because it rained so much!!! Sometimes it would get sunny enough to dry the roads and then a big black cloud would roll in and it would drench us as soon as we had been loured out; teased and sent back in. Even though the weather was not ideal I still had a lot of good times with my boys. Here are some memories:


Trying to meet my cousin 
Got a pic
Sent the fake smile back 
Irish boy




Green burrito - Happy St. Patty's Day! 
I got to get together with my dance teacher friends and see all of their kids. That was hectic. There was so much to chat about but it seemed all we did was run after this kid or that. I was proud of us for even trying to get all the kids together with so many different schedules and needs.

Toys that make noise stay in the room - Daddy's new rule. 
We sent a lot of pictures to grandma in California. 
We drank a lot of juice - thanks daddy :-)  
Maybe one of my favourite moments - nap time with my boy.
We made some faces 

We swung

Hi Grandma! 
And we get this great one back - no smiles - tough guy. 
Ordered Sam some ammo 
Went skating



Ate some fast food - Taco Time

We went swimming a lot.  


We sent pictures of new holes to dad. 
We got a picture of auntie Helen and uncle Butch back - happy! 
Planned our patio ideas
Nice patio table. 
Terrible stools though. 
Bananas and cheese 
We went skating again. 




We chilled
Christian fed himself pasta
And brushed his own teeth in the tub. 
Sam went skating 
I planned my next skate shoes. 
And Jonny found Christian's next hat.  
I braided my mullet. 
We helped daddy grocery shop.  

We moved our play table inside and practiced with crayons. 

But mostly made faces at ourselves in the mirror. 
We did the coffee walk a lot. 
And walked home from the park for the first time. 


Dressed up like a horse. 

Daddy took pictures of my shoes and board - documentation.

More pictures for grandma in California


They are having more fun than us. 
It is raining again. 
Good morning - last day of spring break… boo hoo! 

The last day of spring break it rained and rained. We went for a swim and walked there in the hail. Then, the sun came out. We went for a tea and a coffee and found Christian and Jonny new hats on sale. We didn't think it would get dry but it did. After dinner we went for a half hour skate and then we walked home along the c wall and got ice cream! Spring break redeemed itself! 
End of spring break new hats!

C wall walk home from E spot - pretty! 
Here is a "quick" video:

Vegas Annibirthversry Days: May 16 - 20, 2013 - The Boy's First Flight

My birthday started on Wednesday when we were still in Vancouver. Jonny, Christian, and I went for a walk and chill. Jonathon got his hairs trimmed up and we sat at a couple of different city spots and enjoyed the different flavours and views. Somewhere along our travels we lost Sophie the giraffe and wish her well in her new life. I envision her with a cute little puppy squeaking happily. Christian's new favourite things to put in his mouth are water bottles.... and... Gatorade bottles...  At one of our chill spots Jonny gave me my birthday presents... I scored! I also won ten bucks on crossword scratch and wins. It was a great day that started with swimming and ended with beers with G in Gastown. None of it was planned it just was one of those nice sunny I am leaving for Vegas on my birthday tomorrow days.  The next morning came too soon. A hang over is never fun and it is even less fun with a baby that wakes up and is ready to go and is smiling at you an...

Is that a leaf blower?

I was walking back from the beach and there was a man in the parking lot fiddling around with what looked like a hand made leaf blower. I was staring at it and then looking around for leaves but I couldn’t see any. Hmmm.. I went to my room and was reading my book and I heard this loud noise. This must be the weed wacker.. what.. you know what I mean! THEN, the smell and fog hit me. I am outta here. I know what this is. This for the nyamuks! (mosquitos!) I went away and ran some errands and came back to a dengue/malaria free zone. I guess this is a good thing… but now that I see, hear, and smell how it is done I also question how safe was that fog that I breathed in? Wave report: The waves are still small! I don’t mind too much. I know that it will be huge on Sunday and then they will be too big! Run report: I went for a quick 3km tempo this morning. I was listening to the Roots – How I Got Over – the whole time. That is all I have been listening too since it came out and it is help...
