Happy Second 2nd Birthday, Tyson!

Yah for Tyson! Today marks his second 2nd birthday... and his last corrected birthday! He is officially caught up to his real age now... which as of today, is 2 years, 3 months and 5 days old :) We love you, little guy.

Flashback of Tyson on his due date... you've come a long way, baby!

Budding Picasso

Tyson loves to draw. He could draw neat and even circles at about 16 months, and has been drawing "faces" since 18 months. When he draws his faces, he will tell you what part he is drawing as he draws them ("eyes, ears, bei-bei (nose), happy (for a smiling mouth), hair"). Sometimes he will even tell you who he is drawing (usually a Sesame Street character). Here are some pics of his recent toddler masterpieces... you can see the progression. He's now tackling printing letters. Four letters down, 22 more to go!

Summer Photo Catch-Up

Despite the lack of warm weather, it's been a busy summer for our family. Tyson turned two, daddy turned a bit older than two, and we sold our first home and moved out, amongst other escapades. We were thankful just to have some down time to spend with family and friends. Here are some various pics from the last few months.

The cousins have been told not to blow out the candle

Tyson couldn't care less about eating cake--his favourite part is the singing!

The birthday twins' second birthday party
Complete with an adorable Hello Kitty and Ernie cake lovingly made by Kai-Ma, a Winnie the Pooh pinata (poor Pooh suffered many blows before succumbing to his injuries), and yummy food hot off the grill. The kids had a lot of fun!
