Goodbye Fall

Wow, where has the time gone?  Christmas is but days away.  Here is a glimpse of my Fall in pictures.

My little muffin at the park...

I went back home to NB to spend some time with my ailing grandmother, my lovely Mimi.  I took the girls to Daly's Point...

Here are the apple trees I use to love to climb at my grandmothers house...

I use to feel so adventurous being so high up in those trees hiding from the rest of the world (or more likely my brothers :) As I looked at them, all kinds of childhood memories came back from when I would spend the weekends with my grandmother.  She use to get up at the crack of dawn, bake fresh bread and make me this huge spread for breakfast (fit for a queen), including freshly squeezed orange juice.  Being the strong, hard working lady she was, her clothes were always hung out to dry, no matter what the weather...

(For some reason this picture will only post sideways)

This is the first of a series of clothes line pieces I am doing in honour of my Mimi.

Back from the cottage :(

Back from a week on beautiful Anstruther Lake.  It took a couple days for little Millie to adjust but the big girls were quickly swimming and fishing away.  A week of fresh air and sun was greatly needed and appreciated by all...

Milah very proud of the bass she caught...

Ava with gramma and grandpa's new puppy...

a still morning before chaos ensues...

Amelia and I enjoying some fresh air.

All this and I even managed to get a mushroom mobile done that I was dying to do.

Easter Week-end

I know I am a little behind with this post but with a newborn in the house things are a little hectic. We travelled to Peterborough for the Easter weekend to visit grandma and grandpa Baal. Boy am I grateful to have such amazing in-laws. Just wanted to post a couple pics of the girls with their Easter treats, which they found at the end of their treasure hunt put on by the Easter Bunny himself.

Check out our little crouton (she was upgraded from a crumb as she is now over 10 pounds!!!) with her bunny slippers. Adorable!

Back from the dead

Hello all, I am back. Things got a little busy with the pregnancy which ended in an early c-section but check out my prize. Isnt she the cutest thing ever?? She came in at 6 pounds 1 ounce and three weeks early. We got a bit of a scare with her but all is well now. Time to get the nursery finished. Posts of nursery goodies to follow soon!!

My Costume

A friend suggested I paint my belly yellow and have planets hanging off me so I could be my own solar system but I decided to forgo the humiliation and just make myself a mask so it looked like I at least made an attempt.

Trick or Treat

Check out the girl's Halloween costumes. Milah was a dead basket-ball player and Ava a spider witch. Aren't they adorable!!!!
