Meredith’s birthday on Mayne Island

InlineRepresentation0f75916e951e4819bd60693ae69b374d.jpg

This is a very belated post, since her birthday was last month, but I wanted to publish it anyway, and I’ll also publish one sometime this week about her actual party.

Every year so far for Meredith’s birthday, Kris has taken the day off and we’ve gone and done something fun. The first two [...]

Tofino

Meredith on the beach. You can see the cabins we stayed in behind her.

We spent this past weekend in Tofino with Kris’ dad and little brother. Overall, the trip was a lot of fun. I think Meredith had a blast playing on the beach and climbing on rocks. I get motion sick, though since I’ve become an adult it hasn’t been bad at all. But last time [...]

How does your garden grow?

broccoli

I’m both disappointed and very pleased with my garden. The back part, where the carrots, beets, onion, etc. were, sprouted a lot of sprouts very early, and then they just stopped growing. And then I found cat poo and there are paw prints from something digging. I’ve given up on anything growing there until [...]

Catching Up

I am going through another one of those periods of time where I have so much I want to write about, but not enough time. So I end up writing nothing instead and getting even more behind! So I’m going to try and write a short recap, and come back later and write more [...]

Change

Lots of change in our lives lately. The biggest one right now is that we did end up selling our car. In fact, we sold it in under 24 hours for just under our asking price. He’s coming to get it today. It’s going to be so weird having no car for a while, [...]

Rambling

I have so much I could write about that I keep putting off writing anything.

I could write about the barbecue we had on Saturday for Meredith’s birthday. It was a lot of fun, some of my favorite family from Vancouver showed up as well as some friends and one of Kris’ coworkers. Meredith [...]

Happy Birthday Meredith!

I can’t believe my little baby is a one year old and is toddling around now. We had a great time on her birthday. Kris took the day off and we planned to go to Salt Spring Island. Meredith and I slept in until 10 (and we’d wanted to catch the 11 ferry), so [...]

Random Stuff

First off, I’ve decided to drop the anonymity. I’ve spoken to my husband about it and he agrees there’s probably not much point. You still won’t find me publishing my address or phone number here, but I’d like to occasionally share pictures or video too. So, hi! I’m Lindsay, my husband is Kris, and [...]

Camping

We’ve been away camping, so I wasn’t able to post anything. I don’t really have time to post much but figured I should say something. Camping was a lot of fun. It was cold at night but we all cuddled up together and were fine. I’ll try and come back later in the week [...]

Sleeping Baby

Meredith fell asleep nursing in my arms today. We (Meredith and I, Kris stayed here) have been away for the last ten days visiting my family and just got home last night. What with so many people being around and having to visit and go out a lot, she didn’t nap nearly as much [...]

“Feelings of worth can flourish only in an atmosphere where individual differences are appreciated, mistakes are tolerated, communication is open, and rules are flexible - the kind of atmosphere that is found in a nurturing family.”
