He Said (On Knock Knock Jokes)...

This morning, Kate kept running into the kitchen while I was doing dishes, banging on my leg and yelling, "knock knock", then running away.  After a few minutes of observation, Ben turned to me and said...

Ben: "Mommy, Kate is too old (and by too old he meant too young) for knock knock jokes.”

Me: “Why?”
 
Ben: “She doesn't know what she's talking about.”
 
Anyone who has been subjected to one of Ben's knock knock jokes over the last few months might find this a little funny.

Mix Tape - New Summer

Sometimes you here something beautiful playing on the radio and it makes your day.  This is one of those songs...

After an Early Morning and a Long Swim

This morning, we had the opportunity to spent some quality time with my sister before she heads back to Vancouver tomorrow.  After an early morning and a long swim, Kate fell asleep and I managed to transfer her from the car seat to the crib (snapping a few pictures on the couch in between).  My favourite image of this sleeping beauty is posted here.

December in 16 Squares (Times Two)

December was an incredibly busy month in our household.  In addition to all of the Christmas parties and concerts and visiting with family and friends, Ben had a long list of appointments we managed to squeeze in.  He had a doctor's appointment, his first eye exam, his hearing tested and his last set of immunizations.  On weekends, we went to the Telus World of Science (twice), the Art Gallery of Alberta, the Royal Alberta Museum and the Muttart Conservatory.  We really packed a lot into December...

I'm attempting another 365 Day Photo Challenge this year.  Wish me luck...
