About Us

Victoria, BC, Canada
This blog began as a modern "baby book" for our first child, Finlay, who was born in December of 2010. The recent addition of Seamus, born in January of 2013, has meant continued efforts to put into words and pictures his early years. We also use this forum to catalog our family life: two loving partners, two beautiful kids, car-free, child-centred, attachment-focused, with a love of food and health thrown into the mix!

Great Aunts and Uncles

May 19, 2011

Talk about great aunts and uncles!  Lyndze's Auntie Chris and Uncle Mike, Finlay's Great Aunt and Uncle, drove down to Victoria on Thursday morning all the way from Nanoose Bay to take us out to lunch!  We had a nice chat in the living room and Auntie Chris brought Fin a new friend.  It's a stuffed toy duck that sings a song about spring and laughs when you tickle it.  So far, Fin's reaction is mixed.  Chris warned us that the baby might be scared of it!  Scared or not, he is definitely interested in the duck.  Check out the video of Finlay and friend:

We had a lovely lunch at Spinaker's with yummy food and a great visit.  Finlay was a little challenging at the lunch.  Usually he is very easy-going at cafes and restaurants but he is teething pretty badly lately and he wore his grumpy-pants to the pub.

Although we didn't get a picture of Great Auntie Chris and Fin, we did catch Mike and the babe sharing a moment.

Thanks for coming for a visit!  We hope to make our way up-island this summer to visit a great Aunt and Uncle again!
