May catch-up


Suddenly it's the end of May... where did the month go. We've been busy with life and enjoying the beautiful Okanagan spring. 




Edwin is excited to go to Hawaii this summer and has been practicing with Joe's snorkel and mask.
 

Greta is really starting to try walking. She loves to walk as long as she is holding on to something or someone.



Enjoying a cinnamon bun. Mmmmmm.... yuck!


Greta's new and only tooth.




The boys love to play and hang out together. Edwin always has to be close to his big brother. 



Mother's day morning I came down to this: ( Thanks boys)


I love this little guy!

We planted some annuals along the front walk and Greta demonstrated that gardening is NOT a spectators "sport". I would dig the hole, fill it with water and as I reach for the flower Greta would stick her hand into the muddy mess. She LOVED it.


Greta loves to snuggle. She has to have her bear or puppy when she sleeps and will often have 3 or 4 snugglies in an embrace. 


James and Spencer came up with their family's for Memorial Day weekend.  It was fun to have a house full of cousins. We all had a chance to meet the newest addition. 
Greta meets Colette:


Greta loves Colette.


This is a gift Greta got for her birthday. She loves to ride her horsey.


A few weeks ago I hit the garage sales and really scored!  I've been wanting a bike for YEARS and found this great bike and a wee rider too. Grand total: $95!!!

Edwin loves to go biking and convinced Daddy to go for a ride.
Joseph is still a part of our family. I guess I just pull out the camera when he's at school. Only 4 weeks left and then he's on summer vacation. He's really loving learning French and is amazing at it.
