Time flies

when you're having fun...or is it when you're busy? :) At any rate, I've been having loads of fun and been loads busy this past little while! I am sorry I haven't posted any new pics lately! Get ready for a bunch, so I can get you all up to speed! Ok, I say 'you all' like there are tons of you that read this, but even for the few that visit this blog regularly - thank you - and here are some pics of our recent Life with Calder.
----------------------------------
This picture is from when we decided to wash the car on a beautiful day in April - Calder loved all the bubbles and helped Gary and I wash the car. He also decided that Daddy's scooter and his bike needed a wash, too.

I just love this picture of Calder - he looks so sweet (well, of course he IS sweet)!

-----------------------------------------------
I also love this picture of Calder. If you notice the shirt he is wearing, it is a Hockey t-shirt with a Maple leaf on it. I just got this for him not too long ago, but now he chooses to wear it every chance he can get (that's right, Calder now picks out his own clothes). You'll see in some other pictures he is wearing it - but it's a completely different day.

My Birthday

For my actual birthday, I sang in the Faculty Choir at school - it was the evening of our Spring Concert. Not what I would have chosen as a way to spend my birthday evening, especially after a day of work, but I had no choice. Gary and Calder did come to visit me and we went out to dinner beforehand and then they came to the concert. I was only to sing two songs - but as soon as Calder saw me from the audience, he started yelling "Mama"! Gary had to take him out of the theatre and they never saw me sing. Oh well. :)

That following Saturday I celebrated my birthday with family and some family friends. We went to Moxie's - I like their menu - and this location recently underwent some renovations and it was very beautiful! I had a lovely evening, it was very memorable! We took Calder with us - and while it didn't necessarily make for a relaxing evening, I wouldn't have it any other way - besides - there were lots of people to share taking care of him!! :) I must say that Calder did an AMAZING job for being in the restaurant for 2 1/2 hours.

Yesterday I made chocolate chip cookies and Calder loved it nice and warm, right out of the oven. Of course, that meant a VERY chocolatey face!! :)





Later, after his face was cleaned - he graced me with a happy face. :) This picture was taken using the self-timer - it was timed to take 5 successive shots - and Calder thought it was so funny to have all the beeping then a flash. It gave me a great picture!!

Well, thanks for looking and reading, everyone! As always, I will try not to take so long to get pictures posted again, although I will not promise anything just yet! I am nearing the end of school and report cards and assessments are now upon me. I am really looking forward to the end of June, and the start of my Summer with Calder. It's going to be so much fun!!
