Long Weekend

We're staying close to home for the Labour Day w/e, hey who am I kidding when you're on mat leave the long w/e's don't mean as much. We'll be hiking to the back of the property on Sunday to spend the day at the river without the crowds and have a picnic lunch. Connor and the dog love it there.

It's not so bad going down to the river it's the going up that isn't so much fun for me. I thought it was hard when I was 8 months pregnant, but that was a piece of cake compared to hiking it up with a 15lb babe strapped to you!

And on Monday we'll take Connor to the spray park down the road for the last day it will be open. He usually lasts there about 20 minutes before he wants to come home because it is so cold.

Connor's school requested an emergency/comfort bag this year. We had to provide things that would fit into one ziploc bag to provide him with shelter, sustenance and comfort in case of an earthquake that would last for 24-36 hours. It makes sense but it is scary to think about the fact that we may not be with him if something should happen. We had to give out of province #'s just in case (Amanda & Chris - we used yours').

Amanda & Chris: thanks for adding your comments. Let me know if you need help to add your own post...
