Hi! Long Time No Post

June 28th, 2009

Hi there! Been a while, hasn’t it? Listen, it’s not you, it’s me. I’ve just been really busy. I didn’t mean to neglect you, but I guess I did, and I’m sorry. To make up for it, I am going to post an ASSAULT on your senses.

First – the market. Oh man, things are great. We had the Mayor, a cannon, a piper, a gajillion kids and pets… it was awesome. I love my job. I posted pictures to the Royal City Farmers Market’s page on Facebook and also linked it on my profile.

Second – the boy. Well, remember how we posted that little video of him walking the other day? And how he was all stumbly and tentative? Yeah, well, uh…. he’s pretty much running now. Holy cow. We are having a birthday soiree for him next weekend (ZOMG!) and I am stunned at how fast he moves.

Here’s a cute video of him displaying something he has learned:

Today, we took some time out and went for a family adventure. We wanted to go to Point Roberts to test out our passports and so I could buy Red Vines, but we arrived and there was a 30 car lineup to cross the border so we u-turned and headed to Centennial Beach. Weirdly, randomly, we ran into Ross’ cousin Nicole, her husband Paul, and their two munchkins Noah and Theo. Kale got to check out the ocean for the first time and also got some naked baby time in the sand.

Exciting news in our world as well – Kale’s Uncle Erik, Ross’ brother, and his girlfriend Andrea, are now engaged! I’ve been calling Andrea Kale’s “aunt” for ages but now it will be official and I get another sister in law! YAY! I am SO EXCITED. Kale also gets a cousin because Andrea has a 8 year old boy, Liam.

Now that the first market is under my belt, I suspect things will get back to normal around here. PHEW!
