The past 24 hours

What a fantastic couple of days I've had. Last night we went fishing! Elijah and i both brought in a fish, although we had no idea if they were 63 cm or not, so we released them. Katie absolutely loved being in the canoe, up until her bed time when she started to get a little bit fussy. I think the fish freaked her out at first, when they were flopping around in the canoe. I figured it would be difficult to take a trip like that with an almost one year old, but it was actually fun! Once asleep in her bed, Katie slept well. She woke twice for a bottle, and stayed dry until the morning. She decided that she wanted to play around in our room while I was still asleep...in the dirty clothes pile of all things! I woke up to her talking to herself with different clothes over her head and around her neck. Maybe she was trying to dress herself? I'll never know. She must have peed while playing, because it seemed like a fresh pee when I took her diaper off. Since she hadn't had a bottle in a couple of hours, Katie actually ate breakfast this morning. Shortly after 8, we went for a walk to Walmart to buy more milk for Katie. My little girl absolutely loves being outside. anytime she's driving me nuts, we just have to go outside and do something. We returned home around 9 with Katie fast asleep and in a dry diaper. I put her on the couch for a nap and decided that we should go to the provincial park She slept until I had everything packed and ready except for the bike and trailer. This was a blessing, as it would have taken me twice as long with her awake. We left at 10, biked 45 minutes to the park, put on sunscreen and her swim suit and played at the beach for a hour. ( Katie's diaper was still dry when we got the the park) We both had fun and Elijah came to pick us up around 1215. We figured out how to put the bike rack on the car, which turned out to be pretty simple, and we were on our way. Kay was asleep by the time we got home, and so is now sleeping on the couch again. ( hopefully in a dry diaper ) After she wakes, i think we'll have lunch and then go for another walk to No Frills to pick up a flyer. Hopefully french class is fun, as we only have two classes remaining and we've already written our final exam.

On another note, now that we know how to hook up the bike rack, depending on when we have to return the canoe and on the weather. We will either be attempting a day trip to a lake, or to a section of  the iron horse trail and bike and explore for the day. Who knows, maybe we'll do both!

Oh, and the Krafchek's leave tomorrow :( makes me wish we were posted to Borden also.
