Well we are having a busy week you and I.....

Monday we went to see the doctors for a check up and the good news is that you gain some weight, you are now at 9.3kg (20.46 pounds) and you are growing perfectly, not that I was worried but it is nice to know when you go and see the doctor and you leave with good news, it is always wonderful to hear. Tuesday, we meet Mamie and we went shopping, we bought you some sandals for the summer which are cars that light up, I thought they were net! Wednesday Uncle Mark came for a visit in the morning for a coffee and Tante Chantal came over in the afternoon to play with you. You had a great day even though you have a cold. You are such a trouper!

And on my last note.... you are now close to 17 months and you have all your 4 molars, 1 tooth on the side and your 4 front teeth on top and the bottom, you are just adorable!

Love you Alexandre

We all went up north for the weekend!! Yup, your uncle Mark and Aunt Cindy asked us to go to the cottage with them. Alexandre it was so much fun. We arrived there on Saturday morning, we chatted for a bit then we decided to go for a nice walk in the woods. We brought your sleigh and we were ready to go, you really enjoyed being pulled by your dad and you were just looking around at the trees, the birds and what was surouding you. We were lucky as it was a nice warm Winter day! after 10 minutes of walking, we realized that you were sleeping. So the fresh air really help you to fall asleep. Once we arrived back at Mark's place, you were still sleeping so we decided to sit on the deck in the back so you could still get some sleep and some fresh air, next thing I knew, your father was sleeping and so was I. You slept for close to 2 hours outside. As we were relaxing in the sun.

What was also fun was the next day, you wanted to go outside but this time we let you walk in the snow with your boots for the first time. You loved it, you even stopped for a short while so you can put your hands in the snow and of course you started to eat the snow. You were so adorable in your winter outfit just standing there. Cindy, Mark and your father and I really enjoyed watching you.

You are just so wonderful Alexandre, what a great weekend we had!

What a fun day it was once again....

We did nothing but have fun today. You slept in till 6:30 which was very nice of you as you normally get up at around 5:30... but that is OK... as I know eventually you will start sleeping in when you will be at least 10 years old, just kidding. ;o)

Today, you showed me that you knew a lot of your animals in one of your books when I ask you where they where. It is wonderful to see you so attentive and so eager to learn. I am looking forward of you talking to us soon. So far you can say; Papa and en bas, as you love playing in the basement. It seems to be really your favorite place. Mind you I don't blame you, there are so many toys and we decorated so bright for you. I have to admit it is fun for us too!

Love you my little Alexandre

My first Birthday with you! I love it...

It started off by you waking up late, so that was my first birthday gift, then when I came down the stairs, you were holding in your little hands my birthday card as you gladly handed it over to me with a smile. I just loved the card you gave me and you also signed it too! During the day, the doorbell rang and it was a delivery guy delivering me flowers and guess what, they came from you! and they were beautiful!

We had uncle Richard and tante Chantal over for super and to our surprise you gave us another gift, you sat on your high chair the whole time not saying a word, you were on your best behaviour, you were so sweet as you just kept smiling at all of us and sometimes you would just clap your hands for no reason. You are so sweet Alexandre!

Thank you for making this birthday so special, I just love our family
