Our Trip to Minneapolis

We spent the last couple of day in Minneapolis. My mom had her Ph.D. defence, which she told me she passed....never got to go, but Yeah Mom! Instead I spent the day with Gregory, Amanda, Aaron and Tobi....much more fun. On Saturday Gregory, Amanda, Dadda, Brent, Debbie and Max all went to the childrens museum... So much fun. I spent Sunday morning with Jenni, Jim, Evie and Annalise. Breakfast was great, Jenni is a fabulous cook. We stayed with Debbie, Brent and Max - It was fabulous and they had great hospitality and yummy food. Staying with Max I learnt one thing.....my parents are holding out on me, Max has fun toys! Come on Mom and Dadda!!!

Here are some pictures with Max in the tub!

Having Fun with Floor

All this flour and no one to share it with.....






















Just kidding! I am having fun with my classmates at the JCC. These are my friends Richard, Kalie and Owen.





















So do you like the flour in my hair........ it makes me look older right?

Life in St. Louis - Jan 2007

Mom and Dad already have me pulling all nighters, working on the computer, answering calls and writing......gosh I don't even know my numbers yet!!
I think I look pretty good shirtless....watch out ladies!

We took this picture in the middle of the night. He sure looks happy on his pillow and two favorite blankets and one spare (you never know when you need an extra blanket!)
About a week ago we actually got lots of snow - I will report exactly 1 week later we have none. Anyhow, Adli is not a big fan of snow. Looks like he missed the "Canadian - snow genes"




We signed Adli up for swim class and he loves it. The pool is a walk in and there is a vortex pool - so cool. I like because it is warm!

Summary of the last few weeks

We seem to go to Sam's club a lot! Enough that Adli knows the sign from the outside no matter which location...eliciting the following, "Cookie, cookie, cookie" then "Hot dog, hot dog, hot dog".



















We are learning our body parts...which can be a hazard sometimes...like pointing out eyes without having a finger put into your own eye... so Adli now knows "Eye brow" which is much safer. Here Adli is checking out if his tongue is bigger.



















At the mall, again! Here is a picture just for Uncle Sam on a trike. Practicing so we can double, I'll be back to collect that Harley! Do my feet need to touch? Better get some training wheels.

Botanical Garden

We went to see the Chihuly exhibit before it is removed. The Botanical gardens cover a few hundred acres, so get your walking shoes on!
Like our travels to the zoo we could start another blog with all of the pictures of the Chihuly.


















Inside the Climatron Adli discovered his calling...future rice farmer.






















We took some time out to smell the roses...sorry had to say it. We did not show the next sequence of photos of Adli eating the rose...that should be an interesting diaper change at child care tomorrow!

The Zoo...Again!

We were the first people in the zoo (easy when you get up at 5am), the animals were hungry and Aldi wanted to help...he should like rice cake!











Okay so we only had one rice cake and now there are three peacocks... this was a good idea when there was one but they are scary when there is a flock...Do they bite?










Adli and the Hippo...not the same ring to it as Jonah and the Whale but it might catch on.

First night of Channuka

I opened my first Channuka gift...after much encouragment from Mom and Dad...they seemed
to be more excited about this event then I was! I'm still not sure what Channuka is but after we light some candles and sing some strange songs, I get to open a gift...good deal!

December 2006

Hi everyone. Look at me shirtless and proud!


















So we have these great windows in our house and I love looking into our forest. Today we saw a falcon!

Adli why are you under the sink? Who me under the sink???? I just went to get another roll of toilet paper honest!














This is for Zaida Z. I know this is fuzzy but it was the only picture we got with the hat on!

Adli Goes to the Zoo!

We went to St. Louis zoo. Had a great time. Here is a picture of an ant eatter....pretty cool

This is Adli's favorite way to travel!

New Chair and Bathroom fun!

Mom and Dad got me a new chair that is just my size......it even reclines.....this is the life!

Today I was really busy.....Dad and Mom left me alone for alittle to long. I found the best room ever. It has water and paper, best of all you can take the water out of the bowl! To muh fun!

Happy Halloween Everyone - Adli is a frog and can even say the sound that a frog makes....rrrrribbiiit!

Jen and Moe after Halloween!
Note: Pencils and erasers for halloween does NOT score points with the new neighbours :)

On Father's Day we went to Como Zoo and I went on the Carousel again.....this time I was not so sure about things :)




















Bath with bubbles....the greatest thing ever
















I love beans...... but my favorite is WATERMELLON! I could eat it morning, lunch and dinner.

May 22, 2006 Carousel and Mud

Carousel at the Como Zoo in St. Paul, MN

Adli loved the new dirt that we put into the beds.........loved it so much he needed to become one with it. Yummy Dirt......Maybe we should feed him more :)
