Good times over holidays

We were lucky to have Mike home with us for 2 weeks over the Christmas Holidays. Here are some of the highlights of our time together

Happy Holidays!

A bit late I know….but nevertheless, here’s our holiday story! Every year, we have a Chris-kringle with a few families. Emma, Mike’s colleague and dear friend of ours hosts this event every year, which is super nice of her and her hubby, Sam. This year, Tomas was really into it and enjoyed the gift exchange […]

Daddy’s work

So every Wednesday morning I go to pilates at the uni where Mike works. I drop the kids off with Mike for the hour or so of my class and he (and usually the students in the lab) entertain them. Although this one day, Ethan kept very busy with the rocks for the fish tanks. […]

Earlier this month, there was a magic show at Tomas’ preschool. It was the one time that I didn’t stick around for such an event, and wouldn’t you know it, Tomas was picked to be the magician’s assistant! Here are a few photos from the school. They aren’t the greatest, but at least you get […]

Tomas Gardens

Posted: 14th April 2011 by Bethany in random

For the first time, Tomas did some gardening at a garden centre near us. It was fantastic! We’ve talked so much about plants; we water all the plants on our balcony and at the front door, but this was the real thing! The garden centre gave a 30 minute lesson to kids 2 years and […]
