A day in

So maman and I decided to stay in on Friday instead of going out and about like we usually do. We had so much fun. We basically just lounged around, played with some toys, sang some songs, took a nice nap together on the couch.
Here I am playing with my train that Nana bought we for christmas. It plays some songs and rolls on the ground.
When mommy and I woke up from our afternoon nap, the sky was dark and it started to rain really hard. There was loud thunder and lightning. I think I like storms like my mom does. It made the air smell fresh and the trees really green. I think mommy and me need to have more of these days in and not run around so much. It's nice to take it at a slower pace and enjoy each other.

By the way, I miss my matante Julie in Brazilia!!!!

Deux mots

J'aime grand-maman.

Mom's Day!

So I discovered for the first time a day called Mother's Day! It was fun. It was all about celebrating moms. We started the day off having some morning treats with grand-maman and grand-papa. Les matantes Jumelles were also there with their cousin Michelle and it was fun. We sat in the backyard that mom calls the bee colony and I napped after grand-papa walked me around in the stroller. Then in the afternoon, maman and papa took me to Rockcliffe Park and they rollerbladed the paths along the Aviation Parkway while pushing me in my stroller. Yeeeeee that was fun. I hope they go again. Then for dinner, Nana came over and she pushed me in my stroller while we took Fender for a walk. It was a nice full day packed with fun activities and fun people. This family thing is great! I love each and everyone of them and they love me.

Maman's birthday

Tuesday was maman's birthday and she turned 32....opps, I am not supposed to say that. Old people don't like to share their age. Notice the ribbon on my head. Maman said she didn't need any presents this year because she already has the best present she could ever get and she doesn't need anything else....that's me! That's why she put the ribbon on my head. Silly maman. She also put it on Fender and he was cute but didn't like it so much. See the picture below. I pooped on grand-papa and he didn't even know. Tee hee. Papa had to give him a t-shirt to wear home. Maman says good thing I am soooo cute. Grand-maman and grand-papa and Camille brought some muffins for maman and they each had a candle on them. Fun. One day there will be candles for me. I wonder what kind of treat I will get.

Julian's first day at the park

Mommy and I enjoyed a beautiful day outside. I have gone for many walks already but today was extra special. It started with a long walk to the Bridgehead on Beechwood where mommy got herself a hot decaf coffee. She then headed to Stanley park and I took a nice little nap. There's nothing finer than napping in the outdoors where you get a nice warm breeze on your face and fresh air to breath.
Once at the park, mommy sat on the swing and I sat on her lap and she swung back and forth. That was lots of fun. There was a little girl about 4 years old beside us that was going so high. She was also having fun and I think that one day I will be able to go high like she was. Mommy said she would push me high like that. I think I will like it lots.
Then she sat me down on this green stuff called grass. It was prickly and soft all at the same time. I gripped it with my fingers and pulled and some came off. Neat stuff. Try it. It was nice and soft to sit on. After this, mommy let me stand in the sand. I didn't get to feel it in my toes but she said that next time she will take my Robeez off so I can feel the sand between my toes. So far, the park is my favorite place other than home, and my grand-parents place. Mommy said we can go every day if it's nice. I'll get her to take more pictures of our trips. Stay tuned.

Bye bye Matante Julie

Mommy told me that you are leaving for 3 months Matante-Travel and it made me oh so sad. It feels like you just got back from your travels and again you leave. Mommy tells me that it's part of your job and that Brazilia is very exciting. As long as you get back before mommy goes back to work so we can have some fun summer time together. Boy oh boy do I miss my matante already. I promise that I will update this blog alot so you can feel like you are right there with me and mommy on our fun adventures. Je t'aime beaucoup et bon voyage!

Torture...I mean Fitness with Jules

So Mommy went to a new fitness class on Tuesday and she said she hurt lots and lots but she said that's good. I on the other hand am not so sure about the class because everyone is trying to play with my toys...and mommy said this is good too because it means I have friends. This is me and my friend Hayden. He is abit older than me and can roll around. I hope to be able to do that soon because he looks like he is having so much fun. Mommy said we are going to that fitness class again today so I will try and share my toys today with my friends. Mommy wants me to be happy so she can do her workout and hurt even more. Adults are funny...putting themselves through torture. Weird.
Oh how I love the Exersaucer. This one is cool because it pivots so it makes me feel like I am walking. Maybe I will let my friend Hayden try it out this time. I bet he will love it too.
