Field Trip to the Biodome

I went to the Biodome with my students on Thursday! I love it there...so many animals to see :) The penguins were my favourite.

Gentoo penguin...I want to take him home!

Who knew that watching seagulls could be so entertaining!


Starfish!




Monkeys cleaning each other!

Jesse visit!

This Wednesday I visited Cari's dog Jesse. He gets shipped over to Australia in about 1 month and I know that Cari is anxious to see him. We played outside because it was a gorgeous day! Enjoy the pics...
Jumping for JOY!!!

I give the best belly rubs...just ask Jesse!
FREEDOM!!!


Jesse doesn't share very well!


Jesse wasn't sure about climbing this steep ladder at first...

...but he succeeded like a champ!
What's that noise???

He sure is going to miss the snow in Australia!

Jesse's favorite ball! I must have thrown it about 20 times! Good work out :)
Rollin' in the snow!




















































































































































my celebrity look-alikes

Can I just say that I tried 2 pics before this one and no matches were found! I guess there is no one like me!

Happy Reading!

I've had the chance to read a couple of books this week. If you are looking for a light read choose one of the following...if you prefer something heavier visit Katie's blog! hehe









By far my favorite author has come out with a new book! It's a fun easy read that will put you in a Valentine's Day mood (even if the holiday has passed!) Shouldn't every day be Valentines Day!







This is the book I am reading at the moment! I'm having a hard time putting it down...it' definitely a must-read for those who are pregnant or planning a family (not that I fall into either if those categories!)



We all need a good book to remind us of the value of our frienships!

Happy reading!

Spring Break

Well...Spring Break is almost over :( I've had a good week though. I went to the biodome on Tuesday. I was babysitting for a family I have known a long time (I met the kids at the daycare where I used to work) and I decided to bring them there because the weather was freezing outside.
I spent the day with my friends on Wednesday, went to the mall in Laval! I love that plave it's huge! I regret having lost my camera because I would have loved to have taken some pics. They have this huge floral display right in the center of the mall and the theme seemed to be light, fresh, spring-like flowers! I also went to see the new Hugh Grant movie "music and lyrics" the movie was alright despire Hugh (I hate him...except in Bridget Jones!).
Thursday was a very busy day...I woke up early to meet my sisters at Fairview because they were taking Easter pics with all the kids. It's hard enough taking a good picture of one child...try four! They managed to take a couple good ones but there was always someone not smiling! I also had a "date" in the evening. I'll tell you more about that one in a seperate e-mail!
Friday I went shopping for a baptism gift. I found the nicest store in Westmount...a bit pricy but well worth it! I then went to McKibbons for drinks with my friends. I came home really late, but it felt great to sleep in this morning!
I will definitely be buying a camera within the next week because I'm pretty sure that I won't be finding my old one any time soon!
Ciao ciao...

I've arrived!

I cannot believe that I've actually created a blog! I blame Cari and Katie for all of the peer pressure! hehe...
Keep checking for new posts. Hopefully I will get the hang of this thing soon :)
