Oldie but Goodie News

SHARK TEETH:
Check out Tomas' shark teeth. He has 2 rows of teeth on the front bottom tooth. His permanent tooth grew in BEHIND his front tooth. How cool is that.

(UPDATE: The baby tooth has now fallen out).


TREE LOGGER:
We moved our eyesore wood pile from the backyard (thanks previous owners!) to beside the house. We discovered that most of the wood needed to be split so we rented a wood splitter. Todd split and my trusty wheelbarrow & I hauled.



HOCKEY DAY:
On Canada Day the kids were asked to draw a sidewalk picture of what being a Canadian meant to them. Tomas drew a picture of a hockey rink and Team Canada hockey jerseys. That's my guy!

Toria wanted to know what 'Canadian' meant. When we explained that there are many different countries and we live in Canada and are called Canadians. Our friend Marianne is from Norway and is Norwegian. She replied:"I am glad to be Canadian because it is easier to say then 'Norcawecanajon".

ARTIST AT WORK:

Toria was asked to help finish a mural about Canada. She spent almost an hour and was given 2 extra helpings of paint! We finally had to drag her away with the enticement of going to watch the magician.


AND AS IF CANADA DAY WASN'T EXCITING ENOUGH:

Look who learned how to ride a bike after we got home!
AND once that was mastered she can now get started all by herself.

That's my girl!
