Luc Turns 1!!!






Luc turned 1 year old last weekend and to celebrate we invited friends to come and brunch with us. We had a fabulous time - Luc was so excited that he didn't sleep all morning (and crashed out only at 1 in the afternoon!) We had such a great time that we forgot to take pictures!!! Here are a few that we snatched at the last minute.

Thanks to everyone (near and far) who helped us to celebrate!

P, G & L

A few milestones:

- Luc is now saying, "mama", "papa", "baby / bebe" and "adooo" (teemu?)

- Luc is crawling everywhere, pulling himself up and climbing up and down the stairs

- Luc can put some pieces of a puzzle together.

- Luc has started to feed himself with a fork!

All of these are very thrilling moments for us. Thanks for pretending they are for you too... :)

Wilderness Weekend







Gilbert, Luc & I spent a weekend in a chalet on a wildlife reserve - the chalet was a log cabin with no electricity! We did however have a propane-run refrigerator, hot water, lamps and a flush toilet... The lake was great for paddling in & we spotted lots of wildlife. We didn't have a bathtub so we ended up bathing Luc in a plastic storage bin - he didn't mind at all.

All in all, the 4 days we spent there were much more relaxing than the sleepless week at Mont Tremblant!
