Catching Up

What a girl!

Noelle has been coming over ever Monday and Friday in the afternoons to watch Owen and be my helper. I LOVE IT! I love listening to them play and get along so well. I love how much stuff I can get done while she is here too :) Thank you Noelle!
Ann from Sidney ward made this for Lyla. Too cute!


Having all these cousins around has been so good for Owen. He is sharing and playing so well with them. It lots of fun.

Yard work


Mike has been working so hard on clearing the back yard. He made "big bush brambles" made of blackberry bushes, weeds, broom bush and more. I love watching Mike's mind turn as he molds the yard :) Darren came over yesterday with his machine...not sure what it was :) and they got a LOT done. Thanks Darren!

Our new favourite beach






The Maple Bay docks and beach are lots of fun! It's a gorgeous day today and there was a nice breeze out. I was thinking of mom and dad as Owen and I watched the sailboats heeled over sailing around the bay. The tide was out, so there was lots of fun beach to explore. Sadly for some people that came by to go for a ride in there boat that was tide to the shore, they were not expecting to see there nice boat beached and going no where :) ha ha. Other people came with there kayaks. It seems to be a pretty happening beach :)

Daddy Love

Owen woke up from his nap very sad and clearly needing another nap, so Mike sat with him on the coach and they both slept like this for an hour and a half. I love it when Mike does things like this for Owen that I would never do.

Fun at the Pool


We finally got to the pool last night and it was a blast! Owen has been refusing to have baths lately so it was a good reminder for him that he likes the water, and the pool got those fingernails cleaned :) Lyla loved it too. She is a great water baby.
