Edzea and I did two blue runs-her first! on Saturday this week. I had to ski her between my legs on the last steep bit because it was VERY steep and I was worried that some kid would come flying over the edge and take her out. That’s what makes me most nervous when I’m skiing with her. I try to keep us on the lesser travelled runs as I don’t trust the teenagers on the hill who ski on the weekends!<\/p>\n
I’m going to start ski lessons with Rohan on Saturday in Parent & Tot. It was so cute. He watched Edzea’s ski video the other day and I told him that he and I were going to start skiing next week…he whispers in my ear, ” but Mommy, I don’t know how <\/em>to ski.” I explained that the teachers and I would teach him how! So cute! So we’re going to rent skiis for the first few lessons and see how he does. Edzea and I might ski on Sundays now. We’re going to see how next weekend goes with Rohan on his own. See if he lasts after the lesson with me at all. He’s two years younger, skinny and feels the cold! so we’ll see.<\/p>\n We went to the Kanata wave pool yesterday as a family. It was great. There is a warm wading pool for Neve and for the kids to come over and warm up in when they’ve had enough of the big pool!<\/p>\n Big news is…Edzea, Neve and I are heading to Vancouver for Easter weekend! It’s a Bumpa-sponsored event! for Mom’s 70th birthday gift. We are really excited. Rohan and Daddy will be having a boy weekend with Yose\/Maria and kids at Yose’s family Cabane-A-Sucre (Sugar-shack) just outside of Quebec City so each kid gets something special that weekend.<\/p>\n Neve says “up” now! She furniture walks everywhere but doesn’t quite seem interested in walking yet.<\/p>\n Edzea and I did a painting class on Friday night. She did a wonderful painting of the Parliament buildings in celebration of National Flag day. She wouldn’t let me help at all. All of the other parents of all of the OLDER kids were drawing\/painting their kids paintings for them. I wasn’t allowed to touch Edzea’s. She was practically growling at me the whole “bonding” night. She hadn’t had a nap for two days!<\/p>\n That’s all for now,<\/p>\n Oh we had Yose\/Maria & kids over for dinner last night. Rohan’s nose was put out of joint. He kept asking me to find his BIG fire engine. So I went with him and got his toy engine which he told me was NOT the one he was talking about. He meant the one made out of boxes…(we are going to build him a big box fire engine for his birthday party). He thought it was his birthday party and was getting mad at everyone for telling him it wasn’t…he kept yelling “IT IS!!!! my birfday!!!”<\/p>\n The picture at the bottom of these photos is the cool quilt that Grandma made\/brought for Rohan when she was here. We had a great visit with Grandma! Unfortunately both she and I got sick and were sick while we were in Mont Tremblant but we still enjoyed the trip I believe! I’ll post more pics of Tremblant when I have them organized better!<\/p>\n\n\t\t
