First Big Bike Ride for Jocelyn

Now that we've moved and are pretty much settled, it's time to take advantage of the super park that we have 2 blocks away. Fishcreek park is a fabulous place to walk/bike, explore. Sean, Don and I took Spencer, Jocelyn & Erin, Jocelyn's friend next door, to Fishcreek for a bike ride. We ended up going for about 2 hours! A little long for the first ride, but they still had fun.
They have great paths and bridges and even caves to explore.

This is just one small part of the park. Now that Jocelyn is really good at riding her bike we go all the time.

Mad Science!

Jocelyn's cousin Eve had a "Science" birthday party and we had to make a lab coat for Jocelyn. We had a ton of fun making it!! Then we decided that she needed to have some crazy hair!! She loved the fact that there was a paaperclip in her hair. The party was a great success! Thanks Eve!

Last Day of Soccer

On the last soccer game for the year we finally had a nice day! Jocelyn didn't want to play, can you tell by the facial expression....geez!!Took her only about 5 minutes before she was right in there practicing and having a great time.Jocelyn really likes to play soccer, that's it for this year! Future soccer star!!
BIG KICK!!

Calaway Park

The little girl that I look after had her 3rd birthday party at Calaway park. These are all the kids that went. We had a great time, nice weather and tons of fun!!Jocelyn went on this roller coaster AFTER we took her on the "BIG" one. She did great on the big one but I don't think she'll be going on it for a few more years. It goes upside down and REALLY fast!!! She's sooo brave!THIS roller coaster was definitely more here size and speed!!We had to get treats!! Jocelyn got a huge sucker and Spencer.....CAR!! Surprise, surprise! I think the car was the highlight for Spencer, it even makes noise.The merry-go-round! Another huge hit!

Jocelyn & Spencer

Jocelyn & Spencer seem to like the new house too! They both love that there's a park right outside the door.Spencer got his "summer" haircut!! Wow, he looks like a different child.Jocelyn can't decide if she want to get her hair cut short or leave it longer. She'll be getting her's cut soon too.

The Move

My mom and Doug came for the weekend and helped us move. Well really Sean and Doug moved EVERYTHING. The piece of furniture was aptly named "The Spanish Inquisition" or "The Beast". This coffee table probably weighs about 25o pounds and has to be the most awkward piece of furniture to move. Sean and Doug left it till last....good thing too 'cause they didn't want to move anymore afterwards!!Grandma was a HUGE help packing boxes and entertaining the kids!! Jocelyn had a great time making chalk.These are a few pics of the new place. We absolutely love it.

Out and About

After soccer pictures we went exploring at our new lake! One of the rare nice days that we've had so far this spring!!
Awww....what a great big sister.

Waterfalls, bridges and rocks. What could be better for a little nature walk.

So nice!

Soccer Season

Well here we go with another year of soccer. Jocelyn has really taken to soccer, she defends really well and even gets a few goals!!This is her team this year! They really have alot of fun together. She goes to school with one of the girls and two of the other girls have been on her team in past years. She was very excited about that.

Party in the USA

Jocelyn had picture day for her dance class and got to go FULL costume and make-up!!She was VERY pleased with how she looked.
They just grow up too darn fast!!

She is dancing to a Miley Cyrus song called Pary in the USA - hence the outfit!!

Diaper Dancer

Spencer and Jocelyn love to dance. Spencer can really bust some moves!
Sean was playing the piano and he was really gettin' down.Until he got sidetracked by the "CAR!" outside!

Then right back to dancing!
