Auntie Ami's New Condo

Auntie Ami moved out of our house in April (finally! haha) and into her very own condo downtown! We visited it for the first time with the little guy and brought some sushi to celebrate the occasion. It's a very nice condo and will be Ami & Daniel's place after they get hitched in October! Congrats on the engagement and we look forward to the fall wedding! Speaking of weddings, it was our 5-year anniversary today and Paul and I completely forgot since we've been so busy! Oh well, there's always next year... haha. Happy 5 years, hon! :)

Natalie @ 3 1/2 months

After babysitting the boys, we went to Yen Vi & Wendell's for dinner. Their little princess, Natalie, is definitely getting bigger and more adorable with each passing day! Philip loved seeing her in his Bumbo and saying "baby" while pointing to her over and over again. His favourite part was horsing around with Uncle Wendell though, as usual! Thanks for the dinner invite, guys... it was much appreciated after our hectic day! :)

Three Boys and an Alligator

Paul and I were brave (or crazy) and decided to babysit Winston and Brandon for a day. We started off by taking the boys to Reptilia in Woodbridge to see some snakes, alligators and turtles, Philip's new favourite since he loves reading the Franklin series. We were lucky and even got to see an alligator feeding, which was really cool! Next up, we went to Vaughan Mills for some ice cream and toy rides. At the end of the afternoon, the boys had a blast, but Paul and I were quite pooped! It definitely convinced us that having two kids is plenty, and if we do have three, they can't be all boys! hehe. :)

It's Catch Up Time - Morgan Visits Again!

I'm sorry I haven't blogged in awhile due in large part to my never-ending workload at school and Paul's rotating shifts at work. I dunno how single parents do it, but I congratulate them on a job well done. Bringing my work home with me and trying to take care of a 2-year-old (and a doggie) is more than I can handle most days! Fortunately for me, Philip has been great and very easy-going during the last months of teaching... what an angel! So, with my report cards officially done (June 20), I'm finally ready to play some catch up!

The first blog dates back to May 16th when cousin Morgan came to visit us again from London, England! It'll be the last time we see her for awhile because her mommy Casey is due in September! We all hung out at Grandpa Joe's new condo and it was nice to see Paul's side of the family again. Thanks for the visit, Casey, Sam & Morgan and we look forward to seeing pics of the little one in the fall! :)

Happy Mother's Day!

Happy Mother's Day to all the mommies out there! :)

My First Trip to Wonderland

I took my Physics students to Canada's Wonderland to enter a roller coaster contest today so, after Philip's last neonatal follow-up appointment (way to go, little buddy!), Paul and Philip decided to join us for some fun. Although Philip didn't get to go on any rides (it was mainly open for the teenagers), Paul got to ride the new coaster, Behemoth, and his favourite, Top Gun (he refuses to called it "Flight Deck"). To top it off, one of our roller coasters, Gold Rush, placed second in the technical merit category! Yay! With us getting seasons' passes this year, there will probably be a lot more trips to Wonderland this summer for both my guys, and lots of time spent in Splashworks and Hanna Barbara Land, I'm sure! :)

Anjan's Wedding Reception

It was Day Two of Anjan's wedding celebrations - this time it was the reception on Sunday night. It was at the same venue, but with over 500 guests, more gorgeous decorations and a fantastic atmosphere all around. It was great catching up with the high school crew again too, and watching all our kids run around and play. Congrats again Sandy and Anjan for having a beautiful wedding and all the best in wedded bliss! :)
