Cool weather & great friends

We are fortunate that on the days when Lincoln’s  regular day care lady (Irene)  is unavailable we have a group of friends we can call on for last-minute child care. Lincoln loves this too and never raises a fuss no matter where I drop him off – he has, however, started throwing mild tantrums when I try to get him dressed to go home at the end of the day, the little stinker.

Lincoln always goes to Jody’s on Fridays to hang out with her and her four-year-old daughter Hailey (and her husband when he is home from work). Jody is also our dedicated back-up day care during school holidays when Irene closes.

Before the snow fell Jody captured this shot of Lincoln and Hailey playing in the leaves.

Lincoln also goes to Owen and Rutka’s (Cohen and Oli’s mom and dad) during the week sometimes. I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again, Midway better watch out for when these two get older.

*please note that Owen was standing behind making sure they didn’t fall when this picture was taken. But it won’t be long until they are climbing up there themselves!

Our friends Nicole and Aaron (they have two young boys, Blake and Chase) also watch Lincoln for us when we need them. I don’t have any photos of the three boys (yet) but once I do you’ll be the first to see them.

In honour of American Thanksgiving, which for me means amazing deals during Cyber Monday (think Black Friday but for the Internet) I would like to thank everyone who takes care of our little man when we can’t. We are lucky to have you in our lives.

Now if only we could convince the grandparents to move out West…
