Summer of '09

What an eventful summer! Non-stop visitors, trips to Windsor, Tiff & Justins wedding, trip to Chicago... Was jam packed, but we had a great time.

The boys are doing really well, Cooper is in the throws of potty training, today is the first day I have really put a lot of effort into it, and he has gone 7 times on the potty already. If only it would be so simple... He is super smart if I do say so.. He knows his shapes can count to 15, knows the alphabet, and he talks a mile a minute. He also has turned out to be a very social kid. He really is a good, well behaved boy..

Sawyer on the other hand is trouble. As we all suspected - haha. He is motivated to destroy!!! He is really cuddly though (when he feels like it,) and surprises me at how much of a big boy he is already. He will grab a piece of chalk and walk over to the chalkboard and write. He will colour, and he is a pro at helping mommy tidy up!

Jay & I are well also. Oh Simple Baby is keeping me very busy, and Jay is doing very well at work. We are coming up on a year almost of living in Peterborough, and it definitely was the right decision, it is perfect here for us.

Looking forward to the fall, lots of things planned for the kids, will have more pics then!!!

A Day In The 'Burton

Yesterday we went up to Haliburton for the day and while Jay worked on the house, the boys and I visited some old friends.

We first spent some time with Stacy & Parker and it was so nice to see them! It has been wayyy to long. We then headed over to Lauren & Chris' house to see them before their two little bundles arrive! Even had a chance to see Lauren's mom, Kim, whom was the boys first babysitter (and only pretty much.) Nicest lady around ;)

Then we even got to see our neighbours Jamie & Kathy next door. Another great visit.

Here are some pics from the day.


The boys!



My boys totally passed out after our visits!

Best Buds..

We have had lots more company and a visit to Windsor and things are starting to settle a bit. Have the kids on a great schedule and we are throughly enjoying our first summer in Peterborough. Living on the farm has been amazing and the kids are really loving it. They are also now best friends. Cooper is constantly asking "Where Sawyer Go?" whenever Sawyer is not in his sight. They play, fight over sharing of course, and even wrestle, which I really have no idea where they learned this... Overall the two boys together are adorable. They are always playing in the car, grabbing hands and giggling. It's amazing to see them interact.

Here are some recent pics of the boys enjoying summer. Don't mind Sawyers strawberry stained moustache. Zia Steph apparently didn't want to wipe it off while before she took the pics ;)

The boy moves so fast I can't get a good pic of him. Here is an example. At least you can see his chubby legs.
