Catch up!

Okay so I have realized that somewhere between Easter, birthday parties, party planning, swimming and gymnastics, playdates and all the other daily life I haven't been blogging as frequently; so here I am attempting to keep up again. I am hoping that this, among my other countless baby books, journals etc; will serve as a timeline and fun trip down memory lane for my children who will be able to read and enjoy the moments we spent together ...soooo having said that, sorry for the delay between posts, we were just too busy living!

So to recap the past couple of weeks, we have enjoyed a fun filled Easter with some of our past favourite activities such as our Glow in the dark Easter Egg Hunt:

The eggs were filled with glow bracelets and treats and placed around the edge of our yard for the kiddies to hunt. We waited until after dark in order to really see them glowing. They were a bit hit!



I was also itching to get out a take a few Easter pictures of the kiddies so we did our own little egg hunt in a nearby field and dressed the kids up and let them go find the eggs while I snapped pictures. Although it was a lesson on use of flash for me, I still think they turned out cute!

The kids have both started some new activities for the spring; Swimming for Kaiden and Gymnastics for Avarie. Both LOVE what they are doing (as well as would love to do what the other is I think!) We are so proud of Kaiden who has quickly taken to swimming and is more confident in the water already!

Avarie started Gymnastics this past weekend and as suspected, quickly took to it! Her instructor commented on her balance and lack of fear!

 So in a nutshell we have been very busy, but good busy. Kaiden's birthday is just around the corner and he and I are working on lots of fun ideas for his Halloween theme. Stay tuned for some very fun and spooky photos!

Just a quick plug for our local elementary school..Island View is in the running for an outdoor classroom which would be an excellent addition to their school. Please visit http://www.majestatreesofknowledge.ca/ and vote for Island View School in New Brunswick to win an outdoor classroom.

Also this month celebrates the Pay it forward movement, don't forget to continue to do acts of kindness and enjoy others to pay it forward. Any acts big or small will be appreciated! Visit http://payitforwardsj.org for more info!
