Church Bazaar

This picture might look familiar. Finn was somewhat better at driving and steering this time. His preference for pink motorcycles over blue however remains.

Finn also tried other rides this year. Here he is bouncing in an inflatable with our neighbour's grand kids.

Alone on a ferris wheel. The boy is much bolder and braver than certainly his father was at the same age... not that I remember.


A fun spill at the bottom of the GIANT slide. Thanks to Lucas who helped Finn go up and slide down (and didn't fall on him at the bottom!). We love this church bazaar - right around the corner with free rides for the little kids. We bought some raffle tickets to support the cause, but sadly didn't get lucky to the tune of a side of beef...

Summer fun

Nana and Finn pretend to put out a fire at the "Early Years Centre" while Daddy and Poppa paint at home.

Finn and his best friend Aria playing at the park. They have a shared love of screaming and running around. Sometimes trying for Mummys!

Spoons on noses. What for? Why not!

Mummy and Daddy's day

For both Mother's Day and Father's Day Cake was the big draw. Daddy's day was a Martha Stewart inside out strawberry ice cream cake.

Mummy's Day featured a vanilla and caramel ice cream cake with dulce de leche centre. Yummy!

Finn's ideal family

As heard at the breakfast table:

"If you had 4 kids you could feed them pancakes and pizza and cake and yogurt. Mmmm that sounds yummy"

Pee on a tree

Today, for the first time, Finn peed on a tree. Mummy is glad he was wearing rain boots. She really needs a tutorial. This is something Daddy's should be teaching their sons - no?

Easter at Nana and Papa's. The highlight: Chocolate eggs!

Meeting cousin Rishika for the first time. He was somewhat interested.....

Feeding the miniature ponies that live around the corner from Nana and Papa's.

Finn's 4th year at College Royal (the first time was in utero). He loved this balloon so much. In fact the shriveled remains still occasionally chase him around the house.

Checking out the piglets at College Royal.

Maple sap - it's boiled alot before being sold as syrup - right? Finn and family ate their weight in pancakes that day

Finn in his "big-boy" bed. The transition was surprisingly easy - and so far no midnight visitors to our room - in fact he is reticent to actually leave his bed even in the morning!

Finn discovers the art of mixology.

Some quality boy -bonding time

"Hey - what are you looking at" - Finn is officially potty trained. Of course this involves underwear on the head.
