Serious Conversations at 7 months

What a big boy :) Don't they grow up fast!!!




Having a serious conversation with the bear. Dolan's godparents gave him the bear while we were visiting last week.


Property

We put an offer to purchase 10 acres of land, 10 minutes north west of the city. Here are some photos of the land taken Tuesday night. We are looking at purchasing a ready to move home. We would like to make the home energy effecient by using geothermal and solar heat. Here is the home that we love: http://www.warmanhomes.ca/rtm/home_plans.php?h=Brett

Dog Walk

Last Sunday we had beautiful weather. We bundled up Dolan and packed up the dogs and headed for the dog park so Dolan could go for his first sled ride. Well... by the time we got Dolan to the park he was fast asleep :) I decided that Dolan should still have the experience (even though he was asleep) so I put him in the sled. As soon as he was in the sled he started to cry so needless to say it was a short sled ride! Instead he went into the Baby Trekker and enjoyed the walk sleeping while daddy carried him.

On the way home we stopped at Tim Horton's and went through the drive through. The dogs enjoyed the stop because they received a Tims bit from the cashier.








Dominion Champions




My dad and his team won the National Dominion Legion Championship for Curling last week. My mom was the only wife there :) She had a great time cheering everyone on. Congratulations!!!!

Saskatoon Sun

If you live in Saskatoon make sure you read the Saskatoon Sun. My dad's photo is on the cover and there is a very large photo on page 32. On Sunday my parents are leaving for Dauphin, Manitoba because my dad is representing Saskatchewan in Legion curling.

GOOD LUCK Dad, Rick, Darren and Andrew!!!!

Exersaucer



Dolan is a baby of motion. He is 6 months and wants to go, go, go. He loves his jolly jumper and exersaucer. Or as Crispi would say, "Ring of Neglect". He is not crawling yet but is moving around the room. He can use his arms to move his body in a sideways motion. He cannot move forward. He loves laying on his tummy. Everytime I put him on his back he rolls over onto his tummy.


Bath Time



When I was scrapbooking and going through my stickers, I realized I had a lot of baby bath stickers. So tonight I took some photos of Dolan in the bath. I love how the water looks in the photos.
