2006 year end pot luck

Trip to Niagara Falls with grandma and Maria

This Christmas, we had a little vacation trip to Niagara Falls again. We stayed at the Hilton Fallsview Hotel, which is the best! Maria and grandma also joined us for one day. We enjoyed swimming, sliding down the water slide, and soaking ourselves in the jacuzzi. We also had a great buffet dinner at the Sheraton Fallsview Hotel. Kristen also went to the US for the first time where we got some great deals after boxing day at the outlet malls.

If you are in Toronto and don't know where to spend your Christmas vacation, come to Niagara Falls, it's just 1.5hrs drive!

Kristen can do more exercise now jumping up and down, developing enough strength for her to start crawling.

Merry Christmas from our family

We went to the portrait studio at Sears for some family portraits. It's a way for us to say Merry Christmas, and Happy New Year!

We got a lot of special shots of Kristen, with her playing with a huge snow ball and playing with some sunflowers. Cool!

Amy's parents came to visit

Amy's parents came to see their granddaughter for the first time. Unfortunately Kristen was sleeping so she's not in any of the pictures. We'll do some family portraits later on.

Riding on Daddy's shoulders

Look, Kristen is taller than Daddy!
Although she's just a 7-month old baby,
she's already a bit too heavy to lift!

Aunty Maria visiting

Aunt Maria came to visit. We treated her with spaghatti, and she seemed to like it alot! 

Pretty coat from Paris!

Kristen got a Christmas present in the mail today. It's a pretty Paris fashion coat from aunt Miranda. Many thanks! We'll put it on her and post some more pics! This just came in time, it's getting cold here in Toronto, around zero degree celcius.
