swimming lessons

Tyler and sophia are loving swimming lessons now 




 

aand are so so funny to watch. They are 

goofs in the water together singing and kicking away like they are on vacation.  Always smiling ,they go underwater and come up smling....except if they swallow some water...then they cough abit and then smile again.  They have a great teacher too. 

Dr Eliza

Eliza has been sick this last week with Bronchitis and had another one of her convulsions.  She is such a cheery trooper when she is sick... We have no trouble with her

 

taking her medicine and ventalin.

 

I saw her playing doctors , she had her ventalin and doctors kit and she was playing "your turn baby and my turn". Good multi tasker too feeding baby bottle and using ventalin on babys head:)

Grandpa put the sparkle back in Alicias eyes

Alicia had worked so so hard to earn enough points to buy a zhu zhu pet and she loved her new toy and played all weekend with it.

Well monday came and she wanted to take it to school , we kind of warned her that if she did it might get ruined especially as there has been a girl in her class kind of bullying her by taking her money and other stuff. Anyways long story short..this girl came and picked up her pet and threw it on the ground and broke it...it no longer moves. She was so sad and we felt bad ....but it was grandpa who came through and put the sparkle back in Alicias eyes when he sent money to buy a new Zhu Zhu pet . What a good grandpa our kids have !!!

more pics from our day at the park

Just a few more pics from our day at the park and i was just trying to figure out how to make it so you could view the pics larger ..(i think i figured it out boyd). Oh and hans said he doesnt like our blog because i am never in the pictures ..well i guess i can no longer hide behind the camera anymore , darn it I thought it was working out great. But i guess the kids need to remember their mum actually was on all these outings with them when they look at our blog/journal later.

swimming lessons together

Alicia and Tyler don't normally have swimming lessons together , But tyler had a make up lesson to do and they fit him in with Alicia.  They were so excited to go together   they were dressed early ready to go with there caps and goggles being as silly as ever.

Hans found a new park

Saturday was such a good FAMILY day , it had been a while since we had a saturday all to ourselves.  We went to Olympic park,  I don't know why it has taken us this long to explore out there.  This park has everything.  Cool play equipment, scooter and bike trails and then best of all the water section.  The kids loved it all day and we did spend quite a while there. So sorry but  this is a long post with lots of pictures, there was just too many good moments i will too easily forget.

Alicia and Hans climbed the big ropes ..almost got to the top. 

Tyler is a good big brother to Eliza they are best mates most of the time, he was trying to    include her by sharing his scooter.

It was so funny to watch the kids in these fountains at first Eliza was scared , but as you can see she soon got over that and got drenched.

Her aim was to push the water back in 

but that just left her looking like this

Well tyler thinks he has alot powers all the time , this time he thought he could cut the water by his karate chops.  

Alicia was happy to ride her scooter through the water and climb to the top of the building again with her dad.

Then the most fun was just running through the middle of it all, after Hans did it.

Then i saw the kids looking so so wet in there clothes and it was getting a little cooler in the afternoon and other parents were looking at us kind of funny.  So it was time to go get warm and go home , but not without playing in the beautiful autumn trees and taking more pics .

Tyler is too cool for for pics i guess

This ones for you Nema "peace"
