Fabulous Fall

The most crazy thing that happened this fall was that Leif went to Guatemala for work. Totally different world down there. The hotel he stayed at had a pet monkey.

October is full of birthday celebrations in both of our families.

We were super lucky to get some beautiful family pictures taken by Naturally Illustrated photography.

Piper got her first postcard from her travelling Auntie!

Still in love with her Jolly Jumper.

Gorgeous handmade sweater from a kind lady at Leif's work.

Funky tights.

Biggest smile I've been able to capture... of course it was first thing in the morning!

Happy girl. :)

She is her mother's daughter... trying to figure out how she's being supported.

Arm crush.

 And the Sunday best series.

We found a little fox stealing our candy... But she's a cute one so we'll let it slide. #halloween2015 #whatdoesthefoxsay

September Highlights

September always seems to be the craziest month of the year!

I participated in Calgary Corporate Challenge again this year and these two came out to cheer me and my coworkers on. Hooray for baby-wearing dads!

We celebrated this big guy's birthday too! If you are lucky enough to be our niece/nephew, you can usually bet that your birthday gift will include clothes. :) Super stoked about his coloured pants!!

Oh yes, this happened. She LOVED it.

The grand opening of our local train station's art project was this month also. Since I worked on the project, we walked down and said hello to the artist.

And a few snapshots into the life of Piper. Captivated by the fan.

Favourite place to be!

She LOVES her bath.

Smiles before we head out on errands.

Bright and clean after her bath.

Can you tell we like pink, grey, and stripes??

Umm... Dad...??? I don't think this is right...

At least someone enjoys diaper blowouts...

And some other random pictures.

We tried feeding her with a spoon one evening. She had no clue what to do but thought it was great fun.

Sunday best series for the month! First time wearing shoes. :)

Lake Week

In August, we also spent a week with Leif's family going to the lake as much as possible.

 

This was during the (long) trip out when we stopped to feed.

Second cousins only 3 days apart!

Just a blur of movement now!

Beach babe!

She spent her first boat ride happily chewing on her life jacket.

First time in the cold lake water! Piper didn't even make a noise. She does NOT take after her mom in this department...

Airplane ride!

Concentrating on grabbing the bright colours.

My favourite board game! :)

One night, Piper decided 1am was the perfect time to party...

Lounging with Uncle.

Lake nap time... didn't last very long.

All the grandkids at the lake! Can't wait to see how they all play together next year!
