Thirty Sixth Week



This week started off really fun. We went to Alee's very first Santa Claus parade. It was Alee, daddy, Grandpa, Grandma, cousin Eric and mommy. Aleenah is still too young, she fell asleep during the whole thing, and did not really enjoy any of it. It was funny to see the contrast between her and Eric, he was bouncing up and down in his stroller, clapping his hands, and well, she was passed out in hers. I'm sure next year it will be far more entertaining.
Alee spent a lot of time on her belly this week, still trying to get her to crawl. She still hasn't and doesn't even show signs of trying too at this point. I have learned to enjoy it, because once she starts I won't be able to stop her.
Other than that, this week, we hung out with Vollie and the kitties, went over to Grandma's, and we went to the lighting of the "Tree of Hope" in Kitchener. It was really cold, but we went to support Chad's boss who was making a speech. Alee really liked the lights, and she was pretty warm in her stroller.
The Christmas events have officially started, this should be a busy month for Alee!

Thirty Fifth Week



This week was definitely not too exciting. We spent the majority of it spending time at home, and running a few errands. Alee is still not crawling, and showing no desire too either.
At the moment she enjoys playing on her blanket with all her toys and she loves to sit with her animals. When she plays on the blanket theirs usually Vollie (her dog) laying behind her, and the two cats laying on each side of her. It's like their not even there.
Alee went for a nice walk with her Popo this week, they went down to the park. It was the first time we got to put her snowsuit on, and one of the last as she was already getting to small for it. On Friday, we had to babysit André and Benjamin, her cousins. It was a P.A day for them, Alee had a lot of fun with them. All they want to do is play with her, and they just loved her toys. We went to the Park with them as well, and we brought Vollie. Unfortunately, her leash broke so we had to head home early. I doubt she will be crawling next week, but I'm sure she will do something to amaze us, as she usually does...

Thirty fourth week




This week was very ordinary, we did not do very much of anything. We hung out around the house for the most part, and Aleenah discovered the ABC song on her new toy. Everytime it would play she would clap, and get so excited. She knew exactly what button to press, and needless to say we heard that song alot this week. The weather was also alot nicer this week, so Alee got to wear some Summer dresses that I did not think she would ever get to wear. She looked so adorable, I was never a fan of the dresses but now I am.
Aleenah is starting to get her first tooth, she seems to be more irritated by it in the evening. She still sleeps through the night, but before bed she is usually making weird sounds with her mouth. It shouldn't be long before the one next to it starts to come out either.

Thirty Third Week



It was Halloween this week... but poor Aleenah was sick. She did not get to come trick or treating with her cousins, instead she stayed home with her Popo and Grandmaman. Once we were done trick or treating, her other set of grandparents came over to see her in her awesome monkey costume. She stayed in it for maybe five minutes, she was getting fussy and was very tired. She went to bed around 8 pm, so Alee's first Halloween was pretty boring. Hopefully next year is a better experience for her.
On Sunday we went to visit Corey, Karen and Justin. They have a beautiful new house and had us over for dinner, our other friends Evan and Rebecca and their two daughters Emma and Natalie were also there. Also Eric, Aunt Shelley and uncle Trevor as well... it was a full house. All the kids played in the play room, it's always nice to see all of them together. They will all surely be good friends.
After dinner, Alee and Justin hung out on the couch, in their diapers. They looked so cute, and we got a nice picture of them and Eric.
Other than that we had a quiet week, hung out with the kitties, and just stayed home.
Maybe next week will be more exciting.
