Little Friends

Michaela's first day of little friends nursery school, she goes every Tuesday for 3 hours, they made placemats today with their handprints, so cute. The teacher said she had a great day.

France Sept 08

We had an amazing family vacation to France where we stayed with good friends in the most fabulous french villa. We managed to see some beautiful areas along the coast, including Saint Tropez, Monaco, Antibes, Cannes, Tour Tour (a little Medieval town). Our place was in the countryside in a little town called Saint Antinon, where they had the most beautiful wineries,the wine was fabulous. Michaela did not try the wine but absolutely loved the beaches. The roads were narrow and windy and the driving was insane. Michaela was a fabulous traveller, almost 30 hours of travelling both ways, she had motion sickness from the plane and the roads, we felt so bad for the little one, however after a couple days she was over it and having a ball.

Camping in the new trailer

In Alberta cottage life is with a trailer, so we decided to buy a pop up trailer and go camping for labour day weekend with Aunt Christa and Uncle Andy. Michaela loved being outdoors and the trailer was a hit. Camping in Caroline Alberta, cute Museum, coyotes and fun times. As you can see by the attire it was a little chilly.

17 months and WALKING!!!

It took her a while but she wanted to make sure she was doing it right! She started walking on her own at 17 months, no more knee walking.

Ontario in June and July long weekend

Walking on knees

Michaela has taken a liking to walking on her knees, she can hold things, run, and scoot pretty fast all while on her knees. We just got back from a 2 week vacation in Ontario to see family and this was quite entertaining to all. Myself, started to get a little worried as she is now almost 16 months and still prefers to walk on her knees. She started to pull herself up and cruise the furniture about 2 weeks ago, thank goodness, so I am starting to feel that this is just a stepping stone towards her walking, however will have to be patient. We went camping in Kananaskis for Canada day weekend and then came back and celebrated at the legislation buildings.
