Ryan is going to be an engineer
Ryan out this plane together all by himself. It was 130 pieces.
A fun filled weekend
Ryan went skiing for the first time and loved it!
Of course poutine after is always a hit.
Adam stayed home with me and went for a bike ride.
Happy New Year
We went clubbing.

Ignore the angry Italian man in the background. ;) We all had a great time at the parade. We even gave Santa the letters from Ryan and Adam.

They ran up to Santa
They lived seeing Santa but Adam was disappointed when he didn't receive a Buzz and Woody.
Look who is riding a bike!

Superhero in Action
Ryan came home from school yesterday like this. He LOVED it. Apparently a bunch of the kids made masks.
Here is the superhero using his scooter.

Can't you just feel the wind whipping by?
We miss you Nana!
We had a great time with Nana these last two weeks. Poor Ryan and Adam keep charging into the guest room looking for her to no avail.
We love the craziness.
Rainbows!
Nana and I saw the most amazing rainbow The other day. The pictures below don't fully capture how brilliant the colours were. It was a full rainbow which I couldn't remember seeing before.
Birthday cakes for Marc and Anthony
I didn't get a chance to make Marc a cheesecake, so a DQ cake had to suffice.
Peanut Butter cup. YUM
Apple cake by Grandma

Day Care School Newsletter
Ha ha ha - Ryan's making an impression already. Here is an excerpt:
"We now have two Ryans in our classroom. Ryan C and Ryan S. This feels like an episode of Survivor. Ryan C. pretended he was Robin Hood this week. He chose Landon and Quinten to be one of his merry men. They made green hats to camouglage themselves in the forest."
Grandma hard at work
Grandma mastered the kid's menu games.
That's awesome
I received this note from a mother of another kid in Ryan's class:
"I was in the classroom with my daughter this morning when Oh Canada came on. All the kids stood up for it. Ryan sang the entire song -so bloody cute. He was the only one singing. It was adorable."
First Day of School
Ryan started JK today (half days) and they both started a new daycare. Time flies!
Dressed and ready to go.
Backpacks packed.
His figurine.
His self portrait. Note the cape.
Both kids were having a great time when we left.
