Daily moments

A few pictures of the last while.
Some time together in the cool sunshine while working at Gramma's house - thanks for the picture, LO!
 A new-to-us fire truck.  Chelsie barely fit in it, but they quite enjoyed the ride anyways :)
 Completely done by lunchtime yesterday...she didn't even finish her jam bread before giving in!
 Framed and grinning :)  Excited to hang this one up in her room
 And eagerly showing Daddy her 'girl lego'...I don't know if he'd seen the likes of this before!
 Brian's latest project - a retail barn at Woodbridge Ponds on Tolmie Road in Abbotsford.  Beautifully  made, wouldn't you agree?  The front posts weren't quite done on the day we stopped in, so we'll have to go by for more updated pictures.
 Even Gramps was working with Daddy - a nice time for a quick snuggle
 Woodbridge Ponds sells pond plants - their displays were beautiful!
 The girls enjoyed touching the water and looking for fish

 We had a work night here the other night...the girls biked / fire trucked around while I mowed the lawn and Brian worked on the light posts.  This one is zipping around now :)
 This one enjoyed tromping up and down the sidewalk, driveway and grassy hill.  She loves to be outside :)
That's all for now :)  Wishing you a wonderful day and blessed Sunday!

A sign of God's promises

 "And God said: “This is the sign of the covenant which I make between Me and you, and every living creature that is with you, for perpetual generations:  I set My rainbow in the cloud, and it shall be for the sign of the covenant between Me and the earth. It shall be, when I bring a cloud over the earth, that the rainbow shall be seen in the cloud; and I will remember My covenant which is between Me and you and every living creature of all flesh; the waters shall never again become a flood to destroy all flesh. The rainbow shall be in the cloud, and I will look on it to remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is on the earth.”  
~Genesis 9:12-16

Trouble


Trouble
When she brings you things from the diaper bag
When she's 'found' some fruities in the pantry
When she's discovered your razor in the shower
When she comes to you and declares 'bad'
When she's discovered the garbage can and empties it into the dishwasher item by item (that banana peel needed washing, apparently!)
When she looks soo guilty and you don't know where she was last
When she's eating something chocolate and you find a chair by the candy jar 
When she's put her boots on and is insisting on going out...in the rain in her pj's
(see the boots?)
 
 But she's a precious gift and
you can't help but love her and the laughter she brings!
:) :)
 Rascal

And, not to be missed, the older one...
Different character for sure
She had all of her babies lined up on the couch
and was taking pictures of them
She even was persuaded to be in one!  She's growing up quickly, this one.  *sniff

Happy Monday to you!

Regular days

"Mama!  Mama!  Tuck!"
Wondering what now, I go to investigate.
Yes, she's definitely stuck.
Before freeing her, I took a quick picture...
The car seat was inside for washing, and she had gotten herself 'tuck'.
 :D:D:D



Same little rascal...who knew a Burger King crown could last for...months?!

 And it's not every day you get to make a card like this one...Off to make music at a 100th birthday party :)

 Have a blessed weekend :)
