How you spell it, UPDATE!

So, I've updated the "How you spell it" video, because as I wrote last time, I was sick with almost no voice, so I redid the vocal track, and added echo, and changed the voice sound to a sort of old radio sound, and fixed some of the scratches that the hubby suggested... plus found new dancey dances that the little one does ALL THE TIME:

More updates!

This is what the dino fossil art looks like after he painted it, and then I wiped some of the brown off of the actual "fossil" so it really looked like a fossil found in earth and put a sealer on it:



I went with the little one to a Sundays With the Family concert put on by The Winnipeg Symphony Orchestra, which is SOOO cute and very entertaining for children AND adults! Fun crafts and activities before the concert starts, and then a very child oriented concert! He just LOVED it! We're buying season tickets for all 4 of us this coming season!



Mother's Day at the Zoo... with my boys:



Then Mother's Day the NEXT weekend with Nana and Bop at the lake... they made paintings:



....that were shrunk, printed and look like this as necklaces:



... and the boys wanted to give them in person.

At the end of May, there was a piano recital:


...and a beautiful concert of movement, singing and art... his whole class did the hanging banner, and he did the painting... unbelievable art experiences at that school!



The boys still love wearing the costumes people have given them:



... or from rummage sales:



Moving in to the new digs at the cottage... wait for pics of how the boys and I want to decorate their room:



Loving using this: It's great to laze around on the beach, but it's also nice to get the blood pumping!

We went to the Chinese New Year celebration in mid February:

Fun in Glenboro (as usual) - this time our little one stayed more awake... although it was warm enough to nap this time as well!


Went to Fargo during Spring Break... Our boy is happy eating food only he could eat!



April:


Winter...
