Some Puppy Photos from Christmas morning.

Here's Loudon holding Peachie for the first time on Christmas morning.

He just can't believe that Santa brought him a puppy!! Wow! He named her Peaches after Princess Peach from Mario Brothers, but then mid-way through the day he decided to give the name 'Cookie' a try, but by the end of the day he was back to calling her Peaches- Peachie, actually.
This is Brennus getting a big kiss from Peachie, on top of his new Teddy bear. It's hard to tell which is the teddy bear and which is the puppy.
Here's a couple of photos of Brennus playing with his new Playmobile playground.

Santa Brought a Puppy!!

Santa brought a puppy for the boys for Christmas! She's a cut little ball of fur, a Maltese-Shitzu mix, 3 months old and very very loving and mellow. She loves the kids already and they love her, especially Loudon.
Here's a cute video to prove it...

My Birthday!

My Cake- It's Edward Cullen. If you don't know who Edward Cullen is, just ask the nearest teenage girl. She'll explain it to you!
Darrin made this cake for me at work. So I had no idea!!
I love my Edward Cake!!
Me and Edward being the fabulous vampires that we are!
Oh no! Edward's hair is on fire!
Loudon did the honors and put the candles on the cake. But he stated explicitly there wasn't enough candles- what was he talking about?!

I Want a Hippopotomus for Christmas!

Loudon is in the middle-ish spot.

Those are CARROTS that the kids throw out. They made them themselves out of felt and stitched them up.

Brennus' Letter to Santa

Dear Santa,
I need to tell you something.
And I need to tell Rudolf too.
I love you very much!
Brennus

This is Loudon telling his Christmas Joke...

The Boy's Christmas Concert- FUNNY!

Here are both boys at the Island Montessori Christmas Concert.
They are singing Winter Wonderland in French, but as you can see, Brennus doesn't know the words. That's him in the back making faces. How funny!!

Brennus' B-day Celebration at School

Brennus had a special celebration at school for his birthday. He holds the globe and stands at the month he was born- December. The teacher, Mrs. Lavern asks the kids what Brennus could do at each age.

The kids sing..."The earth circles the sun, the earth circles the sun, the earth circles the sun and Brennus was one!"...as Brennus carries the globe around the sun. After each year a candle is lit. At the end we sang happy birthday and Brennus blew out the candles.

Loudon and Brennus having snack at school, fruit kabobs!
Mrs. Lavern and Brennus with matching smiles!

Marie and Seamus visit.

We were so glad to have a wee visit with Marie and Seamus before they headed back to Toronto last Tuesday. Of course, we couldn't nail the kids down for much of a photo, but I got this great candid shot. Here's Seamus with a sword, and Brennus with a magic wand- ha!

Museum of Natural History, Halifax

While in Halifax, we went to the Museum of Natural History. The boys know it well!
This was a miniature dentist office set-up at the museum. It's pretty obvious that Brennus has not had a filling yet!
This was the entrance for Sea Monsters.
Gus the Turtle! A favorite of ours. Gus is over 70 years old!

Brennus gets to touch Gus' shell.
