4 months & nearing summers end...














Sasha is 4 months old today and she recently achieved another big first…rolling completely over onto her belly! She's been able to roll on her side for some time, but she now wastes no time on her side…it's all or nothing. Apparently these are the first steps to crawling so I'm keeping an extra eye ('cuz you know all parents develop that eye in the back of their heads right?) on our soon to be mobile girl. I know it's still a fair ways away…but I also know this will happen sooner than I think in that strange parental-time-warp kinda way. ;)

anyways, she's finally had her first set of booster shots, which would have been far less traumatic if we hadn't been in the waiting room for over an hour before we got in! (to say she had 'lost all her happy' is an understatement!) the positive is that she still has a clean bill of health and she finally got to meet our family doctor.

rounding out our lazy days of summer...

the weekend that just past was spent at the Jones Park Fun Day (and in recovery the next day!), an event put on by a handful of folks in our community (some of the same fabulous folks I work with on the PAC for Che's school) and Kensington community centre. I was MC'ing the event and had a blast, while Mark and Sasha hung with Granma, Karli, Elise and Brett. Our talented niece Elise belted out a great tune to help us fill the line up when one act was late...she was amazing!! we have a great amount of talent in our community and it's nice to be a part of organizing events which showcase this and bring everyone together in a fun way :)

our friend Jonathan earned his title of Uncle in our tribe when Sasha spit up on his lap (she has a certain knack for gettin' the guys right between the legs) he is a great role model for her life and we also look forward to Sasha growing up with his baby-to-be (so very soon!)

in less than 2 days my mom arrives and I'm soooooo excited for her and Sasha to meet!!

we'll be having a joint clan gathering and many other fun things going on while she's here, so the next update should have many more pics of our adorable little one...including (perhaps) some of her first solid food attempts...bound to be messy and super fun :)
