Happy NYE!

Daddy has been home with the boys throughout the holidays while Mommy had to work.

He met Mommy downtown at the Devonian Gardens with JJ and KC.

On New Year's Eve, we decided to check out the lights at Confederation Park. It was quite wonderful to be there. There were lots of families there with toboggans.

Mads and Bobs only lasted about 25 minutes which was fine. Maybe next year we can bring the sleds.

We came home and watched This Hour Has 22 Minutes and Air Farce. Mads went to bed first and Bobs is still currently up colouring with an Ipad application.

Best wishes for 2013! May it be a good year for all. Health, Family and Happiness.

Happy Birthday Jansen

We celebrated JJ's birthday yesterday and ordered pizza. Mads refused and cried about his pizza. Then he ate it when I said I would take it away. He might still be sick. He wanted to be by himself in our room for awhile during the party.

It was the 5 boys. Next time it will be the 6 boys because Elliott is going to have a little brother sometime next month.

We let the boys have two cupcakes each.

Bowness Park

We've been playing hangman and pictionary. This is a drawing of Buzz Lightyear and Woody from Toy Story.

On saturday, we went for a sled ride around Bowness Park.

It was still quite chilly so we had hot chocolate at an old diner afterward.

Later in the evening, Uncle Tim came for dinner and I made some burnt yam fries and squishy chicken fingers. Not sure what happened to my culinary skill. Then we read a Monster book and the kids had a riot.

Christmas at Mormor and Morfar's

On Christmas Night, we had duck and other traditional Danish dishes.

We played board games and opened a few more gifts.

On Boxing day we went to a playplace with JJ and KC and then came home and played with new toys. Tomorrow, Mommy has to work. Daddy is taking the kids on a c-train ride with KC and JJ and their mom and meeting Mommy at lunchtime downtown at an indoor garden area that also has a playground.

Merry Christmas!

Getting Excited for Christmas

JJ and KC came over for sunday night play and supper. JJ gave us an encore of his Chrismas concert - We Wish You A Merry Christmas.

Bobs did Frosty the Snowman.

Then they brought out all the musical instruments and played jingle bells.

Mads still wasn't feeling so well, so he was upstairs in his room hanging out by himself until suppertime. Then we all watched Shrek the Halls on the computer.

JJ and KC got their warm fuzzy PJ's on and played the Donut game on the ipad before heading home. They are all very excited for Christmas.
