Emily's First Class Trip

Emily had her first-ever class trip on Monday! I was a parent volunteer, so naturally I took lots of pictures of her adventure to Little Cataraqui Creek Conservation Area. The kids listened to a presentation/puppet show, played games, walked around and observed nature, then used fishing nets to catch critters in the marsh. Lots of fun!

Excited!


Learning about using their senses in nature


Feeling the horsetail plant










Gathering their fishing equipment





Observing their catches


Time to head back!

Jessica's 3rd Birthday - Part II

Jessica's party invitations were sent out via email a couple of weeks ago. Her party was just family plus one friend that Jessica's made since the Fall (a younger sibling of one of Emily's classmates).

Invitation

Party time!
Guests arriving right on time


 
Steve got started on cooking Jessica's favourite lunch:
French Toast!



Play time after lunch

Friends giving each other hair cuts :)


Jessica had lots of help from her friends and sister to open her presents! Luckily she didn't mind sharing.




Little Lorelei

New Barbie Car!

Happy Birthday to you ♥





Goodbye Lorelei
Enjoy catching bugs!

After all the guests left, Jessica enjoyed the rest of her day by playing outside, getting her nails painted, and testing out all her new gifts.


That's quite the look!


Trying out all her new accessories

Three years goes by pretty quickly, doesn't it?


Happy Birthday my sweet!
Mommy loves you with all her heart.
