HALLOWEEN ......

Lillian and Emilia went over to Haddon's house tonight to T-and-T.

(Note that here Lillian is having some "Serious Coffee")

in preparation for HALLOWEEN ...

Yesterday, Lillian and I built a fort, sat inside it and "painted" iPad portraits. All of the beeps, bells and music, as well as the names of colors (said in a British accent), are part of the iPad painting program.

Hide and seek

When we were playing hide and seek, Lillian consistently hid in the couch pillows and then directed me, with her little fingers, on where I should hide.

Facepaint

Last night we had a pre-halloween face-painting session.
This is Lillian in front of a mirror trying to paint a reindeer nose.

At the Harbourfront Festival

For Canadian Thanksgiving, Lillian and I went to the Harbourfront "Monster" festival. We saw and touched a chameleon, an alligator skull, a bearded dragon, and Lillian's favorite animal: the blue tongue skink. We chased our shadows on a stage before the performers set up their equipment. And we ate lots and lots of corn.

I hope this doesn't get us in trouble with PETA

The other day, Lillian and I tricked a squirrel into reading "Goodnight Moon."

Toothpaste

Lillian's pediatrician recommended seeing a dentist after Lillian turns 3 (next month!). We have started to prepare for the occasion.

Not too brave

This is Lillian's favorite slide (located at Emilia's house).

Jumping princess

Jumping can be exhausting!

Hiiiiiike!!

Dangerous?

Up in the Air

After brunch, on our way to the bookstore, Lillian got a little boost.
