Another day of building fun for Aidan. When I say building, of course that mean daddy and mommy doing all the hard work… =P
while the boys enjoy their sticky exercise …
Rather than always being a spectator, Reily is finally old enough to participate himself!!
Moment of certificate!
And the real trophy!! ={
Finally, the stars are all aligned! We’re going tobogganing! Consider this is my boys’ first time, the location has to be memorable and fun! =P
Looks like Aidan has no problem at all with the high speed slide, let’s see how Reily does…
Good, looks like it’s a go too! =P
A successful first time, next time let’s try a cliff! =D
Why do we fall? So that we can learn how to pick ourselves up! What a great quote from a movie (guess which one it is)! =) And that’s the best quote to describe Aidan’s recent milestone … SKATING LESSON! =D
From his very first lesson, where he fell on the ground … bumped his head on the ground … and cried on the ice ring, to being able to stand up … bring a smile on the ice, and learn to ‘glide’ in snail’s pace, this brings a smile in my heart too! At the same time, I can’t help but missing all the moments I had with him when he was little … so little that I can wrap him in one arm, and sleep with him on the sofa. My son, I’m glad that you’re experiencing the Canadian lifestyle!!
A happy son and his proud father. OK, the father didn’t have breakfast, and his skates was killing his feet (It’s been more than 10 years since I put on the skates)! =P
Gliding … measuring in centimeter! BTW, can you find mom in this picture? =P
That’s the expression of a boy seeking encouragement.
And the expression of a boy having fun!
No worries, daddy is here. Now … get up! =)
Oh, this year also marks a very special Winter season. It’s been some time since we have that much snow. And who am I to miss this opportunity! =)
It’s been so long since we have that much snow! So much that after 3 hours of shoveling, I still can’t get out of my driveway. I know I’ve been praying for snow so I can have some great snow shoot with my couples, I just don’t know God has this in plan for me. Not only I have awesome snow, but I also have a chance to complete all my exercise for the next 3 years! =P
While shoveling under the blowing snow is exhausting and discouraging, hearing some cute playful sound coming from my backyard always energize me! As you can imagine, this motivating sound is coming from these 2 … gotta love those giggling playing laughter while watching them burying themselves in the snow at the same time!
Good job guys!
Yeah, not many pictures, because Daddy needs to go back to shoveling … and frankly, my fingers are numb. =P
I’m so glad there’s actually snow this year. Yeah yeah yeah, I need to shovel and traffic will be terrible. But … it’s better than last year, when there’s nearly no snow. And snow means fun, for both the kids and myself!! =)
Look, ain’t I cool!!! =P
The last playing session of the cousins for the year. Can’t wait to see them again in the summer!
Another year is soon coming to past. Same time last year, I remember it was only Aidan helping in decorating the Christmas tree. Welcome our new tree decorator this year! =)
Some handcraft wonder! =)
This is the second year in a roll we registered Aidan to a gingerbread house class. I still remember the first time he did that, the house was … uhem … cute. Now a year later, there IS some difference in terms of his creativity and skills (thank God!). =P
Of course, we all need to offer a little help.
Hmm … irresistible!
Mom and I wanted so bad to have both Aidan and Reily to make the gingerbread house together. But apparently, a nap in the afternoon (rather than a proper sleep at night) is so much more tempting!
So while we are having fun decorating the house, enjoy our hot chocolate, Reily is having his sweet dreams.
Oh, he wakes up at the perfect time, right when we’re ready to leave. =P
Take a look at the professionally done gingerbread house! And because Aidan needs to share about his memorable moments to his class the next day, I need to shoot something nice for him to present. (Well actually, not necessarily needs to be nice, but you know me about photography, I can't resist either!) =P
