Babysitting Kai

Today we babysat Kai, who lives just down the road from us.  

Elyse was such a big helper at snack time.

Elyse's "Big Girl Bed"

Elyse is growing up so fast.  We lowered the mattress and converted her crib into a big girl bed.  So far she hasn't gotten out and started walking around at all hours of the night.

New Outfit

This is being posted by Scott because Leanne has not posted to the blog for so long.  I really have no idea what the story behind this outfit is..... Stay tuned for an update from Leanne.

*Elyse says "Thank-you Uncle Dan & Auntie Leah" for her new outfit

Gymnastics

Elyse has been in gymnastics this winter.  She really likes running around with the other kids and is very brave; she jumps off that balance beam!

Elyse loves the parachute!!

3rd Annual Ski Vacation

We got to go on our annual ski vacation with our friends Brad and Karen. We chose Big White again this year, and brought along a baby sitter so we all could ski together. It seems to be a tradition for me not to get any photos of us out skiing, but lots of Elyse hanging out at the condo. I think Brad has some photos of us out skiing on his phone, and I'll post a few once I get them from him.
Just like last year, we got tonnes of fresh snow while we were there, we got at least 10-15 cm each night, so fresh snow could be found every day we skied!

Elyse showing off her skis this year - it is kinda weird that she is wearing the same outfit as last year.
