Busy little bees...

It's been quite a busy week for all of us! Seems like we had a little bit of everything, and a lot of exercise...
First, we finally put together Tristan's high chair, so that he could use it before he used the ones at his grandparents. It came in handy later on in the week when we had our friends Stephanie & Tim over for dinner - Tristan sat in his chair for a good part of our meal and looked like such a grown up little boy! Marcy loves that he looks tiny in the chair, as he doesn't look tiny in much!



On Thursday, Marcy and Tristan had a day out with Aunt Kate & cousin Mary, starting with their weekly 'Movies for Mommies' date, only this week they also went to a baby-friendly fitness class (by the way, Marcy's muscles... so missed exercising. They let her know about it for days afterwards!) Of course, dressing appropriately was a must... Marcy thinks this is Tristan's 'Balboa' outfit (can't call it his 'Rocky' outfit because that would confuse our poor dog too much!)




On Friday we had another swimming class that I'm pretty sure Tristan really enjoyed (except for the part when he accidentally put his face in the water. He didn't cry, but didn't look happy about it...) He even "chased" a ball into the corner during 'free time'.




Afterwards we went with cousin Mary and her parents to the Sportsplex to do some shopping at an Expo and pick up a few outfits we needed for Tristan (he's wearing sizes anywhere from 6mo to 18 mo!)
Later in the afternoon we (all 6 of us) went to a ball class... it's a good thing mommy and daddy were too busy exercising to take pictures, otherwise they would have been quite embarrassed... Tristan had quite a few giggles over the whole thing, so we guess that's what counts, right?
Then we parted ways with the Lee's and rushed back to the Sportsplex to watch daddy play hockey (Tristan's first live game!)... or at least half of it, when Tristan had to have his bum changed and him & Marcy ended up back at the Expo shopping (in her defense, there was no ramp upto the rest of the Sportsplex where she had been planning on walking around with Tristan in his stroller...)

On Saturday we had our weekly family brunch at the abuelos' home (even though the abuelos were vacationing in Montreal) with Mary, her parents, and Aunt Fanny. After brunch we hung out for a bit (babies napped), and then went out to the chilly front yard for some sledding. We only stayed out for a bit (Tristan and Mary still don't understand why they get strapped down to these funky blue things and have their parents giggle and run around in front of them, but they're sure we mean well...) and then came in to warm ourselves with some hot chocolate (well, the grown ups, anyway)

We headed back home afterwards and had an impromptu pizza and a movie with Mary (who snoozed away) and her parents... busy, but fun week!
Hope everyone's well!
Love,
Will, Marcy and Tristan
ps - Happy Anniversary to Aunty Samantha and Uncle Roel! :-)
