Puddles Are Fun

I have to tell you.... I did have to suppress my maternal instinct to help my daughter while I taped this video.

Random Fun

Trev is wearing a tam and Brook is wearing a container cover or "shower cap" as Trev calls it. Good times.

Another First

Brook tried to drink from a cup about a month ago. She got one or two sips and then poured the whole cup all over her face, pouring some milk up her nose in the process. Since then she refused to try it again. I would put the cup in front of her and she would push it away or cry until I gave her something to drink.

For some reason the phobia ended today. I wasn't even paying attention and she just picked up the cup and went at it. It's not the most entertaining video, but it is just fun to watch her learn something new. She was sooo excited! There was milk everywhere, but she was excited.

The Table

This is the chrome table Mom and I "refinished". (we scrubbed it with WD40 Until the rust came off) Mike brought this table from SK long ago. When I first saw it, it was sitting in an old school bus at Ray and Adel's. After being brought to MB it sat in a grain bin for about 5 years at Mom and Dads. It was covered in rust and bird poop. (Don't worry, it was fully washed before use)

I am amazed it turned out as good as it did. I really like it. Trev isn't crazy about it, but being the wonderful man he is he puts up with me and my "reclaimed" furniture. Oh, if any of you see another chair like these let me know. I only have 3 and I would like 1 more.

Brook was a good little helper while we worked on the table. We gave her a wrench and see occupied herself for a long time.

Around the house

Some random pictures from my camera

Brook sleeping in a rather awkward position.

My latest project. (Hopefully I don't regret covering these chairs in an off-white upholstery. I figured I dont have many dirty farmers sitting on my chairs, so I might be OK)

Oh Milo....

Yesterday while we were watching the hockey game I put the animals outside because it was so nice out.
Apparently Milo did not agree.
