Our Family & Our Life

I picked these at Mom's and brought them home - the van sure smelled nice!

... but aren't they cute!?

Colin left last night for Brazil and he called me this morning to say he arrived safely.   While he is away I plan on posting a photo or two of Isla or something from our day for him (and anyone else who happens to read the blog!). I don't know if I'll do it everyday but I'll at least make an attempt. Without further adieu, Monday, day 1....  We were outside this morning watering plants and just hanging out. OK, two photos, since Pearl and Isla were playing so nice together...

Colin has been home for almost a week already.  Time goes by too quickly as he is scheduled to leave again on Sunday night for a red-eye flight back to Brazil.  Sadly, he comes to Canada on "vacation" and goes "home" to Brazil. I try not to focus on how many days we have left together, I just want to spend time together! We've taken it easy and Isla loved it that he was able to join us at her "Play and Splash" class on Tuesday.  I've been taking her for the last few weeks (it runs until mid-June) and she loves it but it's a bit more special with Daddy!  Colin and I were with her together during the "play" portion and then Colin went with her in the pool.  That girls' mouth was never closed - she was either talking (alot) or swallowing water ;-)  Anyways, she loved it and I had fun watching her from a different angle.  She's a crazy kid on Tuesday mornings! After the class we travelled to Ajax to spend time with Aunt Lynn
