If cuteness could kill...

This evening after putting the kids to bed I was spending some me time on the piano. I thought I would pop up and check on the kids. Kissed a sleeping Edwin goodnight. Kissed a sleeping Joseph goodnight and turned to see Greta up on Joe's desk drawing on his white board. After settling Greta in her own bed (again) and singing her a song, she heaved a great sigh and said,

"It's no use Mom. I just can't sleep without my Grandma and my Grandma (she doesn't have lesbian grandparents, she just forgets there are two names to distinguish them). I just miss them SO much!"

Time for a visit Grandmas and Grandmas B and K! :)

September and this side of October

The past couple of months have flown by so quickly there has been little time for blogging. So here are a some pics to catch you up.

In Sept we took a worldwind trip to Saskatoon to visit Ryan's family. On the way home we spent the night in Banff and enjoyed the scenery and some sushi.

(sushi house in banff... a little train goes around a track and you take whatever plate looks appetizing. we all LOVED it!)

The boys swam in glacier water... crazy!

Edwin lost his first two teeth last month. After a bit of drama he was pleased with the result.

We have a den of garter snakes on our property. The kids love it. My family, not so much.

Here is a picture I took of Greta's room. She has the coolest room in the house.

One side of my walk in closet.

Greta has started ballet and absolutely loves it.

Couldn't resist adding this cute picture of her.

We missed having a birthday part for Joseph back in July and since Edwin's birthday is next month we decided to have a joint party.

There were lots of kids having lots of fun.
