First time on Real skates

This afternoon we decided to try out Sophia on real skates. We packed ip the escape and headed to the Stirling Mill Pond. The pond was already busy with other kids playing hockey.

Silly girl

Everyday I love her more. Even when her answer is "no" to everything I ask. She is starting to wear my shoes and clothes around the house and playing dress up. She is still very violent towards her brother when it comes to playing. He just wants to play and she shoves him out of the way and tells Noooooooo Kwiss! Aside from this though she really loves him. Each and every morning she immediately says Mommy where's keisstopher? When she sees him she always has hugs and kisses. Sibling love :)


This past weekend we checked out the annual Stirling Toilet bowl races held on the Mill Pond. We packed up our red sled and heading down. The weather was perfect and Christopher enjoyed being towed behind the sleigh by his big sister .

Welcome to the world William Joseph Brown

Tonight I got to meet the sweetest little wee man. Congratulations to Alex and Angie oh and of course Piper and Lily on your new addition. William you picked two awesome parents. Today in the news today in the news Facebook decides to go public. Ontario Place closes its doors.

Haircut número dose.

Well don't like to count the first one because it was so traumatic for her. So yesterday Sophia had her FIRST hair cut at First Choice in Trenton. Feels like overnight her hair grew :). She was so good. Just sat and listened to the hairstylist . B

Christmas ornaments

I just love Christmas! Its over for 2011 and I'm kinda going through withdrawal. Sophia still says Merry Christmas and asks where Rudolph went! (our giant tacky blow up lawn figure)
Every year up until a couple years ago I would decorate with just about everything we had. Since then I've been tossing the old ornaments and using Pinterest for some inspiration. I've replaced all my ugly hand me downs with fresh sparkly new stuff! I'm pretty proud of myself because the last three years ive scored pretty large at our local Live Love Lsugh store and slso Michaels and got 75% off some holiday decor. :). Saweeet. One thing i treasure are ornaments that I've collected from friends and family. Iherr are few of my favs and a couple doorway garlands I made myself. Thanks for looking :)

10 months and crawling. YAY!!!

Well what a nice birthday! As like we have the past few years we have celebrated our birthdays at Tomasos in Trenton. Always the same spinich dip with Chicken Penne Alforno as the main! SO freaking YUM! Then as an extra treat we took off to Kingston today and had some burgers from the Works. OMG pure heaven. Our kinda joint. Premium burgers with any topping you could imagine. Jason says he likes South Street more but I disagree. And what better way to end our mini trip to K Town but to stop at Costco . :) Or as I like to say the 300 dollar store.

Tonight - January 10 2012 not only did little Christopher start crawling but Sophia pooped in her red potty. So so so so so proud. We werent sure what to say or do. Jason and I just stared at each other in shock. Sophia was uber proud of herself. We even rewarded her with a late night Smartie. :)

Sew what!

This past Christmas Jason bought be sewing machine. So far I'd only made bibs and a pillow case dress! Tonight I decided to challenge myself and make little lounge pants for Kwiss. Aka Christopher. Not to bad for my first try :)
