Christmas Review

I will just put a couple of post-christmas pictures up, and hopefully get around to updating this with some insightful commentary at some point in the future.

Needless to say, for a pretty modest Christmas, they were spoiled pretty good.

December 15th - 21st

Well it has been quite a while since I have updated this with any sort of regularity.

Figured it would be easy to get back in the groove again with a week like the past one which has been remarkably uneventful (it is interesting how bitter-cold will do that to a week).

The only occurrences of any real note were the fact that the family got their hair cut. Although even that turned into more of a challenge then had been planned. Kirsty and Hayden were able to get squeezed into the stylist on Tuesday night, but needed to be dropped off seeing as I had a meeting of the McKenzie Towne Council (of which I am now a director). By 8:00 I realized that my meeting would not be wrapped up in time for me to come get them and I sent Kirst a text message to let them know. Fortunately, Kirsty's brother-in-law was able to pick them up as he needed to head over to the Sobey's in our neighbourhood.

At around 9 I received a text from Kirst saying that she was "Outside, and locked out of the house." It seemed pretty silly to me for them to be waiting outside in the cold when they could've stopped by the community center to get a key (and I sent a mess

age saying as much). It took me about 5 minutes before I clued in that they were outside the community center waiting for me. I managed to sneak out and get a house key to them, so all was remedied.

Like I said, it has been a slow week.

However, to cheer you up, here are a couple clips of Fynlee on her walker.

Coming...

and going.

Here everyone is bundled up for an evening out in the cold

And here is a picture of Kirsty's new haircut, more notable is the fact that Hayden composed and shot the picture.

Crawling Baby

Fynlee has started to crawl.

Video proof is below.

Gymnastics Time

Hayden wrapped up his first set of gymnastics classes recently, and I was able to attend to shoot a couple brief videos.

Sorry they are sideways, if anyone knows how to rotate a .mpg please let me know!

And here is his completion certificate:

Playing baseball

Some video from earlier in the fall of Hayden and I playing some baseball.

Now, time for some batting practice:

Of course he won't let me pitch to him underhand anymore either.
