Skating update

Nadia progresses so much on her ice skating. She asked her coach to teach her to turn around, and it brought the idea to teach her group how to turn around. She fell back on her head so hard, thanks to the helmet I got for her, she was completely okay. She could stand up all by herself easily now. She slides and skates from one point to another with her friends smoothly, and she could do the hockey pokey at the end of the lesson better... She still loves Ice skating and I think we are going to sign her up more for the next level.

Stop taking pictures, please


Okay.. now you can take picture of my bump..... "Can I see it, Mommy ?" (this is what she said, then once I pointed out on her face again, she ran down and showing her bump on my camera again... again and again.

Eating Cherios together





Aidan is so interested with anyone eating or drinking something, so big sister Nadia fed him up. Once he is satisfied, he went back to the tent and played with the fishing pole.

Drawing


This is Alicia, our neighbor sitter who comes only once a week for 2 hours. Nadia and Aidan loves Alicia, she is the daughter of one of our favorite neighbors. Aidan happens to be so tired and fell asleep while I picked up Nadia from school. Nadia came back home finding she had Alicia all for herself, she was so happy and draw a picture of her and Aidan for Alicia. I was so surprise finding her drawing, I though it was Alicia's drawing or Alicia helped her up with the drawing, but Alicia proudly said that it was all Nadia's work. She brought it home happily. I managed to take a picture of her drawing before Alicia brought it home and show it to Ammar. The girl is really talented, I think. What do you think, readers ? This drawing is made 12 days shy from Nadia's 4th birthday

Ice skating lesson

It's the second lesson Nadia had. She made big progress, she could stand up all by herself and make tiny steps on ice. I promised Nadia that I would jump right after the lesson finished for the 15 minutes they allowed. Nadia was so happy to see me on ice, too. I made her practice stepping and got up by herself again. She was so happy back home and ate really good dinner. Aidan stays with Ana, the sitter and he was so happy to see us back home from lesson.

I got her the giro ski helmet and she loves her helmet. I can't let her use the helmet they provide since they are soo big on Nadia's little head.  Little heads run in the family, I guess, but don't question the quality of our head.. ha..ha.. they are pretty smart. 

I promised Nadia that once she is good on ice, I will buy her the new pair of skating shoes, of course, she chooses pink ones.
