October 22, 2007 More Updates























































While the boys are busy with their exams Savannah is busy keeping us busy that's for sure. Its amazing how every day is different, with her vocabulary, sleeping, eating and just being a typical 2 year old. Savannah's new word for today is Delicious everything she drinks and eats is Delicious and to hear her say it would make your eyes water. Today we had fun at the farm, the pumpkin farm in Milton, as you can see from the photos Savannah is having a blast we were there for 3 hours, she fell in love with the chickens. You know your getting old when you can't keep up with your 2 year old in the maze, Dave and I were exhausted. Also today Savannah work up at 8am after a rough night and skipped her nap so its now 6:40pm and daddy has taken her to bed. Well its now 1.5 months and we are diaper free its wonderful to have that freedom, then again it shows us she is growing up too quickly. I am going to guess I have not weighed her for over a month, but last time she was 21.5 lbs I think she is close to 22.5lbs only because she eats a lot and her new daycare providers are wonderful with her and the meals are great, just what she needs.







Her grandparents were here two weeks ago from England, my parents are the two with white t-shirts on, guy on left and the lady in white tshirt, Dave's parents are to guy on right and lady with blue jacket on they were amazed at her and how intelligent these little ones are these days. We are now counting the week for our cruise at Xmas with the boys, not quite sure what we are doing about a tree yet Savannah loves lights and trees so we will have to put one up just not sure when. We are making our second trip to Ottawa on November 1st to see Ross, we will stay for 3.5 days. I have registered to see Dee Paddock I am so looking forward to this in November, also started to attend the support group once a month the last meeting was very informative. Savannah is so close to her brothers, as you can see she is playing soccer with her brother Ross who was home for Thanksgiving. I managed to get a photo of her two brothers together finally. Savannah is now 28 months old, we have no idea where the last 1.5 years went, all we know is we are having fun, and she is loved dearly by everyone. We hope to take a trip next year to Italy, but not before I head to England in March with my friend Cheryl, no kids. More updates after thanksgiving, when Savannah is a pink poodle this year and going out for the first time, and yes she can say trick or treat so that should be fun.
