Family Pictures

Our good friend Heath came to Canmore last weekend to take some family pictures of us.  He did an awesome job, and it was so nice to get pictures of the whole family.  Here are a few of them.

Bedtime routine

All the books you read about sleep tell you to establish a bedtime routine with your child.  It usually consists of a bath, reading a few books and being calm and quiet.  Madison's bedtime routine is the opposite.  We always know when she's ready for bed...because she gets hyper!  We let her run or jump and burn off her energy....it usually lasts between 10 and 30 minutes and then she goes down for bed with no problems.  Here's a little video of her evening energy spurts.

New this week

Just a few pics from the last week.  Our household is finally healthy and happy...well, except for Grant who is still recovering from shoulder surgery and soooo sad that he can't ski...a foot of powder has fallen at Lake Louise and Sunshine in the last 2 days.  Figures that we would get heaps of snow right after his surgery.

Madison has been wanting to sit on the toilet lately...she hasn't done anything in it yet, but is thrilled to be sitting on the toilet like a big girl.

Evan has started smiling at us

And now that we are all healthy, we've started our walks in the chariot again.  Madison doesn't mind sharing with her baby brother.
