"swimming"

So, the Beast and I are taking swimming classes every Tuesday when James is at school. He loved his first class, and has gradually come to hate them. So this is about as close as we get to swimming class:

He loooooves to crawl on the edge!

Halifax's cutest kids!

Beast's new friend

As many of you know, Beast and I go to swimming lessons on Tuesdays when James is at school. This is where he met his new friend, Jackson, who is just 3 weeks younger than him. Jackson is cared for by Maggie, out newest addition to the supernanny group!

snow snow snow!

Beast & I got to join James and his friends for some snow play at HECS (his preschool).

This and that...

Crazy forts are one of our favourite toys of the moment. We love creating forts and hanging out inside. They're great placed to read, have snacks, and be with our friends.

Beast loves "cooking"...

King James!

Snack time.. it used to be JMAC & LBUG, now it's JAMC & his Beast.

Nan sent James an awesome little colouring book. Everything is outlined in a certain colour for him to fill it. It's really helping his fine motor skills and I've been working on his pencil grip too. If any relatives are out shopping... James (and I) would love tripod grip crayons, pencils, etc, long ones if possible. Andddd spring loaded scissors to help him learn to hold them correctly :) Just a few ideas for people who love to spoil my little guys.

A love for each other and a love for trains..

Artist #2

Beastie has always loved watching James colour, and paint and glue, but now he wants in on the action. Here he is, sick but smiling, colouring with markers.

First time finger painting! Loved it!

Puzzle King!

James LOVES doing puzzles and does them so well!

If you think I'm cute you should see my babysitter

Point Pleasant Park - Take 2

Last week we went to PPP with Sue and this week Chris aka Diver came. The weather was very different from last week! Since it was so cold we couldn't go "adventuring" so we found a sheltered spot and played. Everyone had a great time :)
