Meeting Dylan!

I met up with Quel and Rox this morning for brunch at the Gladstone Hotel.

It was also the first time meeting Rox's new baby boy Dylan! He's 2 months older than Jaina so we're excited to have future play dates with them! Yay!

As for the buffet brunch at Gladstone - it was ok but I wouldn't recommend it. I was expecting more of a selection, but all they had were your basics: eggs, bacon, sausages, home fries, and yogurt with granola. The chocolate chip cookies were yummy though!

Do you WASHI?

I didn't know or have even heard of Washi Tape. Have you? But upon heading to the One-of-a-Kind show today... I came across a booth that was selling it.

For some reason, I ended up buying 3 rolls of it with thoughts of the 'possibilities' with what I could do with it (being as crafty as I am)! ;)

Then I looked online, and it seems to be a pretty big thing! So now, I have even more ideas of what I could do with my 3 rolls. Be on the lookout peeps! Washi here I come!

Dinner + Dessert

Since having Jaina, it's been difficult to cook meals let alone bake! I can usually do one or the other during the day, but today was a good day... I was able to plan ahead and get dinner started and even have time to bake some cookies for dessert (all before Ron came home from work!). Yes, I'm patting myself on the back as I type this. This is very rare for me so I thought I'd blog about it!! :)

Dinner was baby back ribs with kale chips, and for dessert - chocolate chip and Skor cookies!

Target Canada!

A bunch of Target stores opened today, including the one near me, so I decided to go and check it out!

It looked like the ones in the U.S... same brands and look. It was a bit difficult to shop with both kids though, so I wasn't there for too long. I bought Jaina a cute summer dress, with sunglasses and hair clips to match.. and got Jacen new swimming trunks!

I'll have to head back without the kids next time to really have a look!

Mommy movie!

I met up with Lesley and Harrison today to watch The Great and Powerful Oz. It was Jaina's first movie date! She slept through most of the movie, however, decided to poo big time during one of the quiet periods during the movie, and everyone heard her 'poo noises'. haha!

It was fun nonetheless! Thanks for coming out Lesley and Harrison, and for Jaina's cute gift!

Scarlett turns TWO!

We headed to Ev & Stu's place today to celebrate Scarlett's 2nd Birthday. It was a Princess theme, which was very cute.

Jacen enjoyed the crafts he made - which Ron is proudly showing off in the photo. 

It was great to see everyone again. Thanks for the party Ev!

Happy Birthday Jaylene!

My niece turns 13 this year... yikes! We headed over to my sister's place to celebrate the occasion. It was also the first time a lot of my aunts and uncles met Jaina!

Jaylene had some of her girlfriends there as well. It reminded me of when I was that age - and then I realized... I couldn't remember that age!!

Welcome to your 'teen' years Jay... enjoy. I 'think' I enjoyed thirteen. hehe
