A trip to the Farm and a trip to the Zoo

This week was a busy one - among other little things that Calder and I did we went to a local farm called Whittamore's. They have a huge play area for kids for $5 per person, but since Calder is still under 2, it was free for him! Hey, there's gotta be some perks for being young and adorable! Calder and I went with my friend Carrie and her two adorable daughters, Jaden and Amaya. Calder just loves Jaden and gives Baby Amaya lots of kisses! Here are some pictures from our day - you can see Calder had lots of fun, and he and Jaden both threw tantrums when it was time to go home!














Yesterday we went to the Zoo with my friend Alicia and her daughter Norah and son, Griffin. Calder had lots of fun playing with Norah and seeing all the animals. He hasn't seen Griffin in a while (he has grown so much!) but that didn't stop him from kissing Griffin a few times! He seems to really love babies, I think he'll be a great Big Brother one day! It was so nice seeing Alicia and her family, we had beautiful weather, although a tad hot at times, but it made for a great day.

On a special note, I finally met Julie! Julie is a girl that I 'met' online through the Today's Parent website. We both were on there when pregnant - she with Rachel and I with Calder. Her daughter Rachel is a few weeks older than Calder. She and I chatted all the time, but lives in London and I in Ajax of course, so we've never met - well we ran into each other yesterday at the Zoo! As she said, we couldn't have planned it better! It was so nice to finally meet Julie, her husband Ron, and of course, Rachel and Natalie - I felt like I knew them already!










Have a great long weekend, everyone!!

  1. It looks like Amaya and Natalie have something in common - cute & chubby :)

    I know I've said this before but it was so great running into you at the zoo. I think back to that moment and it still seems surreal.
