Taking to the ice like a pro


This morning mummy and I met up with a couple friends to try out some new skates. Mummy is going to put me in lessons in January after i turn 3 and she wanted me to get used to skating on tiny little blades before class started. So we got all bundled up and put all the protective gear on and headed out to try our hand at skating. It was a little weird to stand up on those skates but after a couple wobbly tries in the lobby i was ready to venture onto the ice. Man that ice is slippery when you step onto it! Keira and I must have had the same thought when we stepped on it "what happened and why are we on our butts?" But I overcame the adversary and managed to get up on two feet and stand unassisted and even managed to walk a few times before plummeting to my now very wet bottom.



Did I enjoy myself? Yes!

Would I try it again? Yes!

Do I like running around the bleachers more than skating? Yes!!

Stuff to do- no matter the weather!


The last week or so we haven't been doing too much but hang out. Mummy and daddy took me for a bike ride last week down to Rotary trail where daddy decided that we should do a little off-roading. Big mistake, cause the blackberries had overgrown on the trail and daddy tried to avoid them and ended up dumping me and the bike onto our side. He tired to blame it on mummy cause she has a habit of falling off her bike but it was all him (maybe mummy's bike is cursed!)




Mummy had also taken me for a ride the day before and we got to watch the diggers taking gravel out of the river.



















We have been spending time at home doing stuff too and when it's not nice out, it means it's great weather to go frog hunting. Mummy and I found 2 frogs, a big one and a little one. They are funny to hang on to cause they tickle your hand and they keep trying to jump away.

















Another thing I like to do on yucky days is stay inside and get messy trying out finger painting. Who knows when you'll create the next masterpiece!

There's always fun things to do no matter what the weather is like.
