Nana and Poppa's Visit

Nana and Poppa just left after a great two week stay. This smile sums up their trip:

We did so much while they were here since it has finally warmed up. It was in the 70s-80s the entire time, so it was perfect! Their trip included: the farm to pick strawberries, story time at the library, Toronto a few times, the lake, Niagara Falls, the local parks, etc. Scott and I were also able to go on several dates: Toronto, New York (shopping!), hiking to Rattlesnake Point in the escarpment, and out to dinner. It was AWESOME!

She reached up to hold Nana's hand... it was so precious!

Toronto: We were headed to the Toronto Islands, but there was a festival going on and the line for the ferry was outrageous. Thankfully, we ran into a dog show, magic show, face painting, and really fun wave shaped walkways down along the water. Whew!

Emma is almost 16 months old and although she can walk/take several steps at a time, she still prefers crawling:)

Playdate at the Farm

Addison and Emma met two new playmates at our neighborhood park this week. The sisters are almost 1 and 3, which is perfect! Their mom invited us to go to one of the local farms with them this morning and we all had a great time. The farm is in the escarpment area around our town and you could see all the way to Toronto from the top of the farm (which is an hour away!). Strawberry season is only a couple of weeks away, so we'll be headed back there with Nana and Poppa when they're here!

Feeding the animals

At one point I turned around and Emma was having a good conversation with one of the goats. If only we knew what she was saying!
