Weekend in Canmore

We spent a wonderful extended weekend in Canmore at the Smart-Myden condo!  

Quinn's first try in the highchair.

Taking after his dad - reading up on the hike the day before.

Bourgeau Lake and Harvey Pass seemed to be what Quinn decided on!

Hiking with the newlyweds, the Green team, and Matt

I think he is saying "more?"

Kip and Quinn in the subalpine approaching the lake.

Lunchtime...

Jo and Karl's Wedding

What a fabulous wedding for two fantastic people!  We had a blast and Quinn even cooperated so that we could enjoy (aka rip it up!) with our friends.

More vows!

 

The view.

My boys.

Token family shot - Quinn is tired of looking at the camera.  And he is only 4 1/2 months here!  

Father's Day and New Toys!

FATHER'S DAY:

Quinn and Kip always seem to be laughing.  For me, it is the best sound - my favourite people belly laughing about absolutely nothing!

NEW TOYS:  

Quinn loves the exersaucer.  But what he loves most is the pink ball.  Ethan is a big help and is ready to shove the ball into Quinn's mouth at a moment's notice!

The Jolly Jumper has achieved exersaucer status yet but we keep trying!

Aunt Ashleigh found this shirt - we love it!

Nahahi Ridge

The snow in the alpine has finally started to melt and transition season seems to be coming to a close.  It's perfect timing for Quinn as he's pretty into sleeping in a carrier these days and still not too heavy.  We had a great day out with the Green's...  Although Ethan is fond of being carried, Jay's back may say otherwise.

Heady's brave to keep her mouth open, drool is soon to follow.

3+1 Greens

So nice to be back.  The views were pretty amazing for a short hike up.

A look back down the elbow valley.

Too bad the little man slept through the best parts...

Almost feels like summer.  No guarantees it won't snow next week.

Great way to finish and sooth the feet!

Family Visit!

Mom, Dad, and Ash came out for a visit this past week.  Quinn loved it!

Quinn has discovered his hands and with them reaches for everything....including sushi

Family photoshoot

The bumbo...

Quinn is loving the new bumbo and his independence! As usual, more pics on picassa.

Doesn't seem interested in the beer...

Laughing when we put him in the chair!

First attempt

He puts everything in his mouth now.

Looking intelligent?

Quinn 2.0

Now that Quinn is 3 months, it seems that he is much more alert and interactive! We are having a blast getting to know his personality! There are more pics on the picassa site as well.

He LOVES bathtime!

This is the mom-why-are-you-kissing-me-again face

Quality time with Dad.

Mother's Day

We took a few photos of Heady and Quinn on their first Mother's Day together. I don't think he totally understands the concept, but was pretty happy about all the attention!

Mighty Man vs Modest Mountain

Quinn had his first mountain experience yesterday. His stamina isn't quite there yet, but it was a valiant first try. Despite his overall sleepiness, he was pretty stoked!

The position and size has changed a bit, but he still likes to travel on Heady.

His bear suit seemed like fitting attire.

Not so steady on the feet yet.

Token family shot.

Jay had the heaviest load by far.

People did quite get it when we told them that we were hiking with 3 babies...

Post hike snack.

Gotta love this kid!

We're having a great time with the little guy these days. I was so glad to have Heady and Quinn back home after a week away. There's a new picasa album with photos from the week.

New Faces

The little guy has learned some new looks in the past little while.  Not to mention that he's packing on the pounds!  We had an amazing time back in Ontario; there's a bunch of new photos on Picasa.  Check them out...
