Logan's funny faces...

Happy Canada Day!

Logan woke up at 7:40 am today....a nice sleep-in for all of us. I normally wake up at 5:30am and get Allan and Logan up at 6:30am. So sleeping past 7 is a real treat for us. After I get Logan out of his crib he aways runs over to Daddy for his morning snuggle and to play with the cell phone.

"Hello, is Elmo there?"

Canada Day landed on a Wednesday this year. It was on and off rainy so we just stayed home -went for walks, played at the park, played in the backyard...
We were very happy to have Grandma and Grandpa over to spend time with too!

We made a 'get well' card for Uncle Oscar. Logan likes art projects but it's sometimes hard to get him to stay in one place -he wanted to take his crayons into the tv room. I guess we have to just keep at it until it becomes routine and he knows that the art supplies stay by the easel only.

Logan is now 16 month and 2 weeks. He can say a few words now: Momma, Dada, ball, shhhh, knock-knock, banana, bye-bye, cheese and dude.

"Thanks for the new shirt and shorts, Grandma and Grandpa!

The lion looks like it's driving my car! Hope to see you soon!"

Happy Canada Day!

Sunday at the Farm

We went from a lovely sunny Saturday to a wet and rainy Sunday. After being stuck in the house for most of the day we headed to the petting zoo when the rain briefly stopped. When we got out of the car and Logan saw where we were, he was so happy!

I love this picture! Daddy had a good time too...

"You came running over fast, guy! I was about to punch it..." hahahaha

Wonderland Splash Park

We knew it was going to be a lovely Saturday so we headed out after breakfast to the Wonderland splash park.

Lucky for us, the cousins had the same idea!


Logan really liked the waves and the swimming lesson from Daddy.

Logan went down his first water slide! Here he is with Mommy....

And then again with Daddy!

I don't know if you can zoom in on your computer but Daddy looks very afraid!

What a fun day!

We love splash parks!

The choice between getting an air conditioner unit and paying our property taxes was a hard one to make this summer. But since we're paying those taxes, we are taking full advantage of all the lovely community amenities -especially splash pads at the parks!

Thursday

Logan absolutely loves the swings!
Take a look at the sky -it had stormed all day and every quickly dried up and was very humid.

Allan found this splash pad on his way home from a friend's -it's a neighbourhood north of us. It has lots of jets shooting water from the floor at different times -not bad but it has a cement floor so we held Logan's hand since when he runs/gets excited he sometimes trips.

Friday
We decided it was worth the ten minute drive a bit north to go to the super splash pad with the rubber flooring. This is the one we went to with Grandma and Grandpa.

First time at the Splash Park

I took Monday off to go to the dentist around lunch. I convinced the Grandparents to stay a bit longer -we picked Logan up early from daycare and went to the splash park before dinner. It was Logan's first time at a splash park and he really enjoyed it!

Logan loved pushing these buttons to make the water squirt!
