Logan and Michaela update

So Logan started his swimming lessons today and I thought that it was going to be a challenge to get him in the water, but he surprised me. He had a blast riding down the lazy river and floating (although he'd rather not float on his back). He kept asking for more when they were jumping off the edge of the pool. He also couldn't get enough when I dunked him under the water. I guess having a big sister who loves the water has rubbed off on my little man. I think that I am going to have 2 fishes in the family.
Michaela will start her lessons in the next couple of weeks and I was informed that she is able to skip a level as she is so comfortable in the wateer. I am also going to get my little accordian girl into dance as she is so flexible that I want tokeep it that way. All this and she starts playschool on the 7th of September. My little girl is growing up fast and my little man is not far behind her. I wish there was a way to slow it down or pause it so I can enjoy it for longer.

Going out the Window!!!!


So Sean has always wanted to go skydiving and as boys will be boys, he and Neil went and did it. They discovered that they both have always wanted to do it and so they went ahead and booked it without letting their wives know. So Donna and have decided that they are no longer allowed to go out alone and have these conversation as this ends up being the result. Well we broke that rule and let them go out alone Saturday night and lo and behold they've now decided to go base jumping. I think that I am really going to have to put my foot down and say "NO MORE GUYS NIGHTS OUT!!!!"
Seriously though, he rarely asks for anything and works so hard that I feel it neccesary for him to have his releases and do what he's always wanted to do. But come on seriously..how many more adrenaline rushes does one need? At least our insurance is paid up.

My Best buy!!!


well I really had 2. One was a 10 pound bag of Chips Ahoy Cookies for Sean and the other was this bag for myself. I was really stoked when I found it. I have to say that I LOVE Nine West. I don't have anything really trendy but I have one now and I am now on the road to being a fashionista. WELL.....MAYBE

Toronto Vacation

 

So we had a blast in Toronto. The kids LOVED gradndpa's boat and fell in love with the lake. Michaela didn't want to stop swimming and Logan, well, Logan was just took it all in. He was happier with me than anywhere else. Although Uncle Mike took him to feed the ducks and he was really happy with that.
We spent Friday at the Marina and Saturday and Sunday on the lake and the kids actually slept on the boat in the middle of the lake. I was really worried about that, but they did fine.
Michaela hooked herself to Mercedes and she was a blessing cause she didn;t mind having Michaela with her at all times and it gave me a little of a rest. When Mercedes was with her I had no worries, what a great 13 year old. So Mercedes ended up spending the rest of the week with us and boy did she help us out a lot (especially at the Zoo).
On Monday we spent 7 yes that's right 7 hours at the amazing Toronto Zoo. We were able to see the whole zoo and that's NOT a small feat in itself but with 2 toddlers that was amazing that we were able to do that especially in that heat and monday was the nicest day to go. It was only 37 degrees with the humidex rather than 41-43. So it was a good thing we wnt then or we would've said to bad for the zoo. but I am glad that we got the opportunity to go and see animals that we have never seen before.
Michaela was all about the Zebras, Elephants, Giraffes, Jaguar, Lions. She really wanted to see al sloth, but we were unable to find one. Logan, wee, he didn't get to come out of his stroller due to the number of people there and the heat he was better where he was. But he got to see all the animals too so he was happy. All I heard from him was WOW!!!
One thing that makes the Toronto Zoo so amazing was all the educational information that they had. They had exhibits that told you how people in a certain area of the globe lived and how they did their farming and how they would use elephant dung for fertilizer. It was really neat. You could also go at certain times and meet the animal keepers. You don't get to do that at the Calgary Zoo. I don't think that I will lok at the Calgary Zoo the same way after that experience. I will post some animal pictures to give you the chance to see some of the animals that we saw. I actually got to see kangaroos. I thought that was really neat.
