So far behind...

I feel as though even if I tried my very hardest, I'd still be behind with this blog. Life just hasn't allowed much time for bloggerland lately. But I know that some of you still faithfully check to see if I've updated this, so here's one for you! I only have time to show you pictures though, so you'll have to check back for a written update :)

Callie is nearing the 1 1/2 year mark. She'll be 17 months next Tuesday, and she gets busier and chattier each day and makes lots of silly faces.
This is her look of 'concentration'...

Silly "cheese" face...
As I said in an earlier post, we took Callie to the Vancouver Aquarium for the first time at the end of October. We had no sooner passed through the entry gate, and she had her face plastered to the glass to see what this was all about... :) It was pretty cute.

We watched the dolphin show...

We walked around in the sunshine and took in the other outdoor shows...


We visited "Kermit" in the frog section of the Aquarium...

Going in for the kiss...

Watch out world, Kermit and Callie are on the loose!

Checking out the dolphins from the lower deck of the aquarium...

Our dear friend Jen was able to join us for the day!

Watching the Beluga whales...

Callie highly approved. Yaaaaay belugas!

Back inside the aquarium. Jelly fish...


I love this picture... makes me laugh every time!
"Seriously, Daddy..."

Saying bye-bye to the aquarium. Such a fun day!

Trying on Mommy's shoes...

Bath-time bubble fun...


Some of the pictures Jon took at Fishtrap Creek during our MTE Silent Retreat...



All bundled up for the chilly weather.
She INSISTED she should wear Mommy's mittens...
That's all for now. Hopefully I'll have more time for blogging soon.
Only 3 1/2 more weeks left of MTE training!!

Oh my, she is quite the little cutie. And growing up so fast too! I just love her cute little bangs in the silly cheese face picture :)

Bonnie said...

Thanks Elissa! It was tough to keep her still enough to get them straight (took the help of Grammy!) and they STILL came out a bit crooked :) But I think she looks like such a toddler now with her bangs. Definitely not a baby anymore :)

Her hair is getting so curly! Jen's looking absolutely beautiful as usual. And...I think Uncle Craig would throw up in his mouth if he saw that picture of Callie kissing Kermit! Hope you sanitized first! ;)

She looks like her cousins on Jon's side.

Crazy to think MTE is almost finished for you guys. We had 8 months of it. I like the sortened version idea.

See you on Friday maybe!
