Unlike yesterday, today we made it to play gym. And a half hour early, might I add. ☺ Yay for better days. ♥ For extra fun, like us on Facebook here and find us on Instagram here.

iPhoneography // Skating, Day 2

Jen — Tue, 29 Jan 2013 09:10:21 +0000

Gracen and I went skating for the second time today (see our first try here) and it was pretty great. We still rotated rounds of skating with the support with the extra fun chair rides, but Grae was a lot more confident today and skated for most of the time without me holding the support… Read More

iPhoneography // A First: Skating

Jen — Mon, 21 Jan 2013 18:00:46 +0000

While on Christmas vacation in the Okanagan, I finally came across something I’d been on the lookout for for a while now… Old-school double-bladed skates. ☺ And though we didn’t get around to a family skate session while on vacation, today my little lady and I stopped by Hillcrest Centre for their weekly preschooler skate.… Read More

iPhoneography // Water Baby

Jen — Thu, 27 Sep 2012 07:17:16 +0000

We’ve been back in swim classes now for a few weeks and Miss G is just loving it. The classes are upbeat, fun, and filled with songs and play, but teach beginning swimming skills at the same time. So far, we’ve been practicing most of the same skills we learned last session… Front starfish floats,… Read More

Hillcrest’s Outdoor Pool

Jen — Wed, 11 Jul 2012 22:09:47 +0000

In an effort to keep cool while enjoying the sunshine, we tried a new outdoor pool today… The outdoor pool at Hillcrest Centre. It was a beautiful afternoon and we certainly enjoyed ourselves, but I must say, it was no competition for the lovely Maple Grove Pool. While we love Hillcrest’s indoor pool, the outdoor… Read More

Little Fishy

Jen — Mon, 14 May 2012 05:19:02 +0000

We took our little fishy to her third swimming lesson this morning, and since Brad and I were both able to go, I took the opportunity to take a couple of photos. This little lady LOVES the water, and although our instructor is a little brash, our lessons have been really fun so far. To… Read More

iPhoneography // Frog Tags Along

Jen — Wed, 02 May 2012 03:34:07 +0000

Today’s play gym visit was all about Frog. Everything that Gracen did, Frog did. Come to think of it, Kermit probably had a better time than Grae because she used many of her turns to send him down the slide, help him jump on the trampoline, and push him on the plasma cars. Of… Read More

Lunch with a View

Jen — Mon, 02 Apr 2012 06:31:11 +0000

Today we headed back to our regular Sunday play gym session after a short good weather hiatus. Since our last visit, they’ve decorated the upstairs windows with paper grass, flowers, and rabbits in preparation for Easter. Strangely enough, Grae loved the decorations so much that she preferred spending her time walking back and forth along… Read More

Back At It

Jen — Sun, 01 Apr 2012 05:25:17 +0000

After saying goodbye to Grandma Charlotte this morning, Grae and I got ready and headed to our usual Saturday story time at Hillcrest Centre. Gracen was thrilled to be back at it after a few weeks spring break. She danced, bounced, and followed along with the actions, all while gnawing on a giant carrot. And… Read More
