Thankfully, summer is almost here, so
we’ll be going out a lot more and we’ll have a lot more stories and pictures to
share, starting with Emma’s birthday party tomorrow! Until then, here’s a
little summary of the past 4 months ....
January was spent mostly hanging out
inside, and building castles!
In February, Emma and I got sick. When
she finally started feeling better ... she got sick again! L The positive side of the
millions of colds she got is that she is now very proficient at blowing her
nose (a.k.a emptying the Kleenex box).
In March, I made a really cool “Happy
Retirement” cake for Bernard! Unfortunately, since Emma was still sick, we were
unable to attend the party and actually taste the cake but I was told that it
was very good! J
In April, the weather finally got
better and we were able to start going outside a bit more. One of the first
things we did was to go to the Eco-museum. Because let’s face it, otters are
awesome!
Then came Easter but Emma wouldn’t let
me take a good picture of her wearing bunny ears; she finally let me take a few
while playing outside, later that afternoon.
Next came May. May is always busy, we
start working on the backyard (and this year it included building Emma’s
humongous swing set!), Anil’s birthday is the 16th and then Emma’s
birthday is shortly after. For Anil’s birthday, I made a Holland Jersey cake!
The Euro Cup is coming soon and we’ll be cheering for Holland (hey Emma is a
quarter Dutch after all).
And the swing set took a lot of time to
build but Emma is enjoying it very much!
I’ll be back soon with pictures of
Emma’s 2nd birthday! I can’t believe she is already 2 years old!!!!
