I have been bugging Mike for months to build me a closet organizer so that I could start getting ready for the next baby. Today we finally had time and money to work on the project. It went amazingly well, no fighting or mistakes :) It fits all of Alexandra's clothes and #2's too with room to spare. I was worried that we would need a dresser in the room too but luckily it will just be filled with everything else.
Alexandra loves, loves, loves to climb. It is an activity that I am not that fond of when it features varies household objects like a chair but on some rocks I think it is great! Maybe there is rock climbing in her future?
So about 22hrs after Alexandra and I returned from Victoria we got on a plane and headed to Ottawa. Ryan was going to Korea for work and Billie decided that I would be good company for a week. It was a wonderful time. I really enjoyed getting to know Natasha and spending time with Billie. We got into a nice routine and now that I am home I miss having company.
Alexandra just loved her cousin and would constantly try and give her kisses and hugs. It was nice being around a new baby because it has given me some confidence for #2.
Isn't Natasha the cutest?
Kisses!
While we were in Ottawa, Alexandra and I met up with another Mom (Vanessa) and her son (Simon) from my message board. Vanessa picked us up and took us to the Children's museum, which was amazing! It is a really great museum with tons of things for children to do. Alexandra got lost - she is fast! Thankfully Vanessa was there to help find her or I would have been crying. This is the best pic of the kids, I thought I had lots of batteries but as it turned out I got 2 pics!
Just when you thought I was girly....I start throwing dirt.
Isn't she just the cutest?

This is what Ally thinks of fancy restaurants. Mike and Ally spent most of the time outside while we waited for our food to come and everyone to finish eating.

Ally had no fear of the animals and would run up and pet them.
Hello! Can you see me?
