NO, mine !



Hello lovelies,

Well I'll start off by apologizing for not posting on a more regular basis, not that anyone seems to mind. Things have been busy as usual and just when I thought things couldn't be busier, Toronto just had it's first snowfall. This powdery white stuff should slow down things a bit and also means that I get to put on all my winter gear and play outside!

I've also started a new daycare and have the pleasure of sharing it with my friend Nigel, son of my Uncle Marty and Aunt Bee. Dad and Uncle Marty have been good friends since highschool and never thought they would see the day when their son's were in the same daycare, let alone neighbourhood. I also get to see Nigel's big sister, the lovely Sarita on a regular basis. Our two families couldn't be more happy about the arrangement.

Before the snow came, our family made a trip to High Park to take in the last of the fall colours. Below are some pics of myself and mom playing on the equipment.





In terms of more formal developments I've been told that I'm in the midst of a significant growth spurt. Counters and tables are closer then they appear and much of my clothing is getting tight or ill fitting. I'm also in an incredibly frustrating period with my speech and expressions of need and wants. I've been having more tantrums lately, simply because I'm finding it very difficult to communicate. Bottom line-the words just aren't there yet. Anyone who knows me will tell you that I talk up a storm but it is still baby gibberish. The folks have been great about it and patient too, in no rush to hear me say, " Can I have the keys to the car?"

I have however picked up an interesting expression that I've been putting to good use. Some of you may recognize it, " NO, mine!"

The other day when Dad came to pick me up at Daycare, one of the other kids named William approached my Dad to check out his flashing bike light. I quickly ran over and indicated,"No, Mine!" so that William understood who's Daddy he belonged to.

Ahhhh, the lexicon of love!

Take Care everyone. Pics of the first snowfall to follow.

Halloween and other stuff

Hi everyone,

I am sad to report that we didn't end up going trick or treating this year. By the time Jonah got home from Kiki's that night ( Where he dressed up for an afternoon party with the kids) none of us had the energy to go out. However, since it was so nice and warm that night, we tried to dress Jonah up to take some pictures but he refused! Apparently Kiki, his daycare worker took pictures of the kids earlier on in the day but we'll have to wait on those ones.

So instead of him in his monkey suit ( courtesy of R&R) here is a totally goofy shot of Jonah wearing my chucks in his pajamas. I love how his hair looks and it just all goes with the facial expression he's making, I mean the super 'fro is just classic. What a little dude!



And speaking of hair, I'd been growing my facial hair for weeks in prep for my Halloween costume as a Nordic Viking. I've shaved since but I think I may go for it and grow a big old beard for Winter time.



In other news, our brave Nana has gone back up to the arctic again to complete her research. On last report, she emailed us that she is safe and sound in Iqualuit, despite the boredom and is heading to Pangnirtung very soon. We'll keep you updated as her adventure unfolds.

Crossing our fingers that Jonah will pose in his costume.

Want to remind you to take a moment and add you name to our 'follower' gadget on the blog's right hand corner so we can see who is visiting our little site!

Take Care everyone and have an awesome weekend.

Daddy 'D'
