A few quick updates on Lily....

Lily was a bit sad the other day after school. Apparently, her friends Sophie and Marianne were playing together and they didn't want Lily to play with them, they told her: " that she wasn't in the club". All was fine in the classroom groups the next day.

Lily always wants to wear dresses.

We received a note from Lily's teacher, Mme Mihaela saying that there was a few incidents where Lily was not being nice to a little boy in the school yard. Jayson and I both had chats with her and we hope that she listens and is nice to all her friends in class.

Her favorite thing to do is play Lego. I guess she is following in daddy's footsteps because that was also his favorite thing to do.

On Friday, October 19, Lily was "Championne du jour" she got a Congratulations certificate and she was allowed to be the first to line up and got to play with whatever she wanted during playtime.

Lily loves talking about all her friends in class: Sophie and Marianne were her first friends. Then came, Marc, Maxime, Johnathan, Jason, Sebastien, Tristan, Andre,

Johnny and daddy

For the last couple of weeks, Johnny and daddy have been hanging out together a lot. It has made them get super close and as a maman, it is awesome to see how much Johnny loves his daddy.

It also helps me out loads!

Both kids are still so much in love with Violet!

Cold and windy zoo trip!

On Sat, Oct 6: went to the zoo with Aunt Shannon, Uncle Matt, Kate and Ryan... It was very windy and a little chilly! The kids ran around from animal to animal, well, the girls did and the boys loved just sitting there and watching the animals do whatever it was they were doing.

The girls liked the monkeys the most and the boys liked the polar bears!

Violet was awesome (36 days!) and spent the day in the carier or in the stroller (mostly babywearing!).

Then it was pizza and movie night for all of us. Early bed times for the moms! And video games for the dads!

First zoo trip as a family of 5!

What a fun day! We took the kids to the zoo on Sunday, September 30th. It was a beautiful sunny Fall day and we walked around for 4 hours. Violet enjoyed the fresh air and Lily was happy to see giraffe's and Johnny's fave's were the stingrays and monkeys.

A super great memory!

First parent teacher night at Lily's school

Jayson and I went to Lily's school tonight. We saw Mme Miheala before the class assembly and she had a few things to say about Lily:

- she is adapting well to routine
- she doesn't like to stay still during resting times, but she is getting better
- she has made some new friends
- she always is in a great mood!
- she is fun to have in class
- she has a little defiant side to her where she doesn't always comform to what is happening... Not in a bad way!

We saw some pretty paintings and pictures of Lily in her class.

Hard to imagine that our little girl is doing all these things without us during the day.

It was a very good first school meeting... Lily and Johnny stayed home with a babysitter (first time we hired a stranger!) and things went well on the homefront.
