Fall in pictures

First day of preschool (in the green plaid)

First day of primary (kindergarten)



Boys that turn 3 and have a lightening McQueen cake...
Eat breakfast by the woodpile...
And eat lunch with the favourite birthday presents, "robos".
A trip to the wildlife park (a brave trip with 3 kids and ONLY one Mommy)
Babies that can sit on their own...

that can smash food and lick it (then make faces like it's poison)...
Tip out of chairs...And crawl really fast.

Girls that turn 5 and spend their birthday money on a sparkly dress...

And have a yoga party with all of her friends.Halloween as a Ligon (refused lion head)...

A Princess...
a little chicken...
And a pumpkin to the 5-year-old's exact specifications.
Among other wonderful milestones I was too busy to photograph.

Yippee for local business!

I've been saying for 5 years (since my first was born) that the town where I live needs it's own cloth diaper/natural parenting store. One of our lovely local doulas ( Birth Services) has taken over the online business, Enchanted Forest. She has even added her own home show room where you can view/touch her products. This is very exciting if you're local, but also if you aren't and require shipping (reasonable rates to anywhere in Canada)! She has an awesome selection of Canadian made products.

Check it out! And she has a contest right now for a gift certificate!

And might I add, she is the only person I know of in Nova Scotia that does placenta encapsulation!
