Surviving without Bryon/Daddy

As I've probably mentioned a lot before, Bryon is really busy at this time of year which means we don't see him much, and last week he was gone on his much-deserved and much-needed mid-season tax break which meant we didn't see him at all.  He had a great time with four of his college friends on a ski trip to Revelstoke B.C. (sadly he forgot the camera so I have no fun skiing pictures to share).  We sure missed him, but I made sure to have lots of fun things planned to keep us busy/sane in the meantime :)

Trying on mommy's clothes is always fun.

This craft was fun too, but I'm pretty sure some glue-covered Cheerios were ingested in the process :)

 

The sun came out and City Beach Park was beautiful so we spent a couple of mornings there.

Kai likes feeding the lion, but always gets frustrated when the lion doesn't actually eat what he is offering!

Sometimes he puts sand on top of the lion and then brushes it off while saying, "I'm giving the lion a hair cut".  Apparently this is very exciting!

This is a typical movie-watching pose.

Cedar St. Bridge is an old covered bridge crossing Sand Creek, which now houses several shops and restaurants.  Recently they added a place called "Creations" which has loads of art supplies for children to create crafts as well as a bunch of toys which Kai enjoys just as much as the crafts.  We've been going there most Fridays with friends which makes for a great end to our week.

We attempted real finger-painting this week which Kai wasn't too sure about at first, but quickly entered into enthusiastically.







And we used paint brushes to paint our cardboard barn.
