Ella.  11 months old.  Today. Our baby baby is nearly one!!!!! Where, oh where did 2010 go?! She is standing up on her own, then clapping herself… { too cute } She is trying to walk…. She points at everything and everyone… { With the chubbiest little fingers } She shakes her chubby little finger [...]

When you have The Wiggles!!! This morning, Marc and I took the Harvey Three to The Wiggles concert at Boondall Entertainment Centre.  This year’s tour is The Wiggles Greatest Hits Live in Concert.  And the concert is more like a very tiny version of a Cirque du Soleil mashed together with a Wiggles show.  Here [...]

Mum will never, ever run a day care from her house.  Having the four grandkids there this morning ,while attempting to make a couple of test batches of pikelets, with a few variations.  It has been decided that there are too many kids to get under your feet when they are all here together and Nana [...]

Reuben was very quiet this morning, which usually means he’s doing something he shouldn’t.  Surprisingly, this wasn’t the case this morning.  Today, just for a change of pace, I found him putting two of Ella’s babies to bed, along with Turtle and Elmo… Sometimes, he’s a little bit cute!

You know you’ve got one of these at the grandparents place somewhere.  The standard All Kids In The Bath shot.  Most of them will be circa 1970′s or 1980′s (I think).  I couldn’t help myself and had to take a few shots when we had the four cousins all in the bath tub having a ball [...]
