1st Time Golfing With Mom

So I decided to risk it and take Rowan to the driving range with me the other day. Of course she loved it...the lady at the range let her borrow a kids driver they had on hand and Rowan marched right up to the tee mats, proceeded to steal the balls out of my bucket, tee them up and smack 'em! She was very adamant that she would "show you how to do it, Mom." Then in true Tityk form, she got extremely frustrated when she missed, growled a bit, and threw her club into the range....but she wants to go again... :) I won't lie, it was nice to have my own cheering section as when I would hit she would get very excited and yell for all to hear, "Nice hit, Mom! That was a great one!"

May Visit With Cousins Kayden & Isabelle

In early May Michelle brought the kids up for a visit and a change of scenery. We had a series of nice days, which allowed the kids to play in the backyard together and have trip to our (less than amazing!) zoo. Was also nice for Michelle and I to have have some adult time...okay, maybe me more so than her, but all in all it went pretty well. Rowan and Kayden just pick up where they left off, and Rowan is pretty interested in her new cousin Isabelle. In fact, she loves her so much that she is the only reason I am allowed to get rid of anything in this house...only if we are "giving it to Isabelle, because she is smaller than you!"

Colin, Kate and Cath....yes, us big people squeezed ourselves into the kid train!

Love this smile!

A Little Bit of Easter

This if from a pre-Easter party that took place early in April at Ft. Edmonton Park. The kids had a chance to decorate cookies, dye easter eggs, make baskets and go on a hunt down the park paths! As they continue to get older and better at this little outings, they get just a little bit more enjoyable for us!

Rowan also spent some time later in the month (over the actual Easter holiday) at Nana and Papa's. More egg hunts, more candy! It is June and we are still making our way through the mini eggs!

Happy Birthday Kayden!

In March we made our way to Calgary to visit family; we wanted to meet our new baby Isabelle and celebrate some birthdays. Kayden turned three and had a wonderful birthday brunch. Was good to see Auntie 'Chelle and Uncle Chaddie too!

Happy Birthday Baba

In March Rowan and I made a trip to Calgary to get in a visit and celebrate some birthdays. We were able to spend a few days with Baba, Dido, Pra-Baba, Lena, Jackson and Makaila. Rowan had a great time spending some time and playing with everyone, and was very excited to go out for Baba's bday dinner and watch (and help) her open her bday presents!
