A week with Gran & Uncle Shane
Gran and Uncle Shane came for the week this week to help me with you and Lukasz. Gran spent a lot of time cuddling with Lukasz so we could ease you into him being here so you wouldn't feel suddenly left out or jealous. And I think it worked. You've been nothing but very loving to him.
We went for walks--it's incredible how much longer it takes to get ready when there are 2 kids to dress and get out the door! Lukasz fit nicely in the Snugli, which will be good for when I go for walks with you and him. I can hold your hand or push your stroller easily with him strapped to my chest.
Blowing kisses to mom in the park:
Having fun on the playground with Uncle Shane:
Unfortunately you got sick this week, and were feeling pretty badly.
We took you to the doctor but after taking urine and blood tests, they figured it was just a virus and we just had to let it run it's course. But it was pretty scary when your fever went up to 40.1C. You've never been this sick before. :( We were at the doctor all day, so you missed your regular nap time. When we got home, you and I were both pretty tired (photo by Uncle Shane):
With the extra help around, we had time for this:
You love your big puppy:
And you swiped Lukasz's teddy pretty quick:

Fun with Tatus
When your Uncle Derek and Shane and I were younger, we used to play "horsie". I was always the horse--they'd climb on my back and I'd take them for rides, and sometimes I'd be a bucking bronco and try to throw them off. They liked that one the best. :) I showed you and Tatus how to play that today, and I must say, Tatus makes a pretty good horsie. :)
Lily and lala get a ride:
Thank you, Tatus!

A snowy walk at Gran & Grampa's
Here we are out getting some snowy fresh air on Gran & Grampa's street. 
All smiles for Tatus :)
All smiles for Tatus :)
You weren't quite sure how to walk through the snow at first...
Happy girl with pink cheeks:
With Tatus in the forest at the end of the street. There's a great toboggan hill there!!

More tobogganing at Gran & Grampa's

Tatus pulled you around and around the yard, like the little princess you are. :)
You had one face-plant into the snow, but just licked the snow off your face and we carried on. What a brave girl!

Fun in Kelowna!
We are on a 5-day trip to Kelowna to visit Gran & Grampa and Uncle Derek and Uncle Shane. There are cookies to be baked, a Christmas tree to be decorated and LOTs of snow to play in.
Big thanks to Monika & Dawid for the loan of the snowsuit!! It fits perfectly!
Ready to go tobogganing for the first time!! (In Gran & Grampa's backyard)
Whee!!!
Uncle Shane must have done something pretty funny because you two are having a good laugh together. :)
