What a great weekend we had once again. This time we went to Centre de la Nature in Laval, such a beautiful park, and it has so much to offer; a beautiful lake, canoe rides, a train for children, face painting, pony rides and even a small zoo that had: rabbits, chickens, cows, goats, deer’s, pigs, horses and much more. And that is not to mention the huge park they have for children and the picnic tables that they have if you wish to eat outside! It was just so much fun!! Jacqueline and Katerine were there too, they meet us there and you were so happy to see Katerine!

So, as soon as you saw the train, you started to scream of joy! And we told you that yes, after lunch we would go. Boy, I have to say that you listen so well, you played in the park with Katerine for a while, then we went to eat, then it was time for the train ride, you were so excited, the conductor gave you your ticket, then he had to take it back to punch a whole in it, you were just amazed, then it was time to go. So Katerine, Jaqueline, you and I went as your father took pictures of us leaving for our train ride. The smile on your face… priceless…. After the train ride, we went to the zoo to see the animals, we feed the goats and the pigs, and then we took you on your very first pony ride. We put you on the horse and you were smiling away, once it was time to go, the horses went in a circle and you were just proud of being on a horse by yourself, what a proud moment for your father and I. We were just watching you!

After a long but fun morning/afternoon, it was time to go, you were not to happy about leaving but we told you that next time we would come back, we would do the canoe ride and much more, so you seemed happy with that. You got into the car and I think within 5 minutes you were out like a light. You slept for a good 45 minutes. Once we got home, we were expecting Francine and Carl for dinner, and you were very happy to see them! You gave them lots of hugs, so while I was making dinner, your uncle Carl was playing with you and you just loved it! By 7:45 you were so tired, we put you to bed and as a gift to us, you slept till 6:30am which you very seldom do, I mean seldom, hahaha, you normally wake up at 5:20 each day, so I have to say” Thank you Alexandre” mind you anytime you wish to wake up (after 5:15) we are always ready for you! As we love you so much.

Sunday, we had another fun day, we spend the afternoon at the park and you were just happy going outside again. Them Mamie and Doug came over for dinner, you wanted Doug to sit next to you, which he did, you eat very well and never said a word. Once you were finished your dessert, it was time for bath and them bed. You looked so tired at 7:30 but you wanted to watch a bit more of your favourite move which is now Madagascar (a few months ago it was Horton hears a Who) lol, now lets see what time you will be waking up tomorrow LOL

Love you Alexandre
