Toronto!

We have arrived in our new city. We landed on October 15th and found a wonderful apartment near High Park, which is in the West End of Toronto. We are a short transit trip away from Mike's work and close to many wonderful parks and schools. It was a bit of a whirlwind adventure to get us all here, but we are settling in slowly.
Today we had a playdate with some new friends. We have been to the local school three times and played in the gymnasium, read stories, and played some new games. I am trying to find some new daycare children for the new year as well as get The iBakery back up a running for January. Mike's new lab works with Zebra fish, and it is in a beautiful building downtown. Everyone is healthy and happy. Check back soon for more updates on us all :-)

Summer in the City




Summer has yet to officially come to Vancouver, but we have been playing like it has for about a month now. The signs are all there, baby ducklings, flowers, cherry blossoms, longer days...we are only missing the heat of the sun. My two little ones are now three, but are still my babies. We've moved into big kid beds in preparation for the baby to come. We've adventured to Maplewood Farms twice, had bbq's at the beach, visited the aquarium at night, watched the festivities at the first of many carnivals to come to town...this truly being our last summer in Vancouver, we want to make it as special as possible - stuff it full of memories, photos, laughter and love. Happy Summer to you all!
