Apple pIcking

Now that we have our very own vehicle (yea, I know) we can finally do family outings that are out of town.
We took the boys to pick some apples at Waddell Apples. It was a lot of fun.
We ended up with 28lbs of apples, which lasted almost a month. We ended up going back just before the season ended and picked 20lbs more.
We made a bunch of appley treats which everyone loved.











Run or Dye

I was very fortunate enough to participate in the Run or Dye run held at Fort Henry this year.
Even though I know that Run or Dye did not give a hearty sum of the profit to charity like they led us to believe, I still had a lot of fun and cannot wait to do it next year. I have already preregistered :)


So excited!
Knee high rainbow socks, tutu and shiny blue spandex that I found at a thrift shop!

Still partially clean!



Soaked from the VERY cold torrential downpour. It rained pretty much the entire time.

13 months!

My crazy, stronged willed baby is a toddler. A walking toddler. I can't even lie to myself any longer. He isn't just taking a few unassisted steps, he has completely stopped crawling and walks everywhere now. Just in time to out grow his over priced baby shoes.
What a boy!
He is unstoppable, and can scale the wall unit and couch with ease. He loves cars and balls and thinks it is hilarous to turn off Daddy's xbox when he is playing. (I also find this hilarious haha).
We have made it 13 months of breastfeeding. Amazing!
Some days he nurses so much that I am starting to feel a little touched out. He loves to pinch me while he nurses, so that is a whole new can of beans.
We are still a no sleep house. And by we, I really mean me. Some nights he allows me only 2 or 3 wakings, others he only unlatches to switch sides. Thank god for coffee.
We were able to go to the Community Midwives of Kingston's annual fall picnic. It was so nice seeing Susan again. I really wish that we could have seen Myriam as well, but I know that she is busy caring for new families in Cambridge.
