Scott's Reply

I just had to post my bro-in-law's reply to Geneva's weird obsession. it cracked me up!

"Hey Sarah,
We still have Sasha's dog cone (the one she had to wear when she had her dew claw removed so that she wouldn't lick her scar). I think it would probably work really well on Geneva. Plus, if she's lucky enough she may just be able to pick up some XM radio broadcasts. I hear they have some good kids shows on that fancy new technology.
Let me know,
Scott"

Weird Obsession



Geneva , my 18 month old weirdo has this keen obsession with sticking things in her ears. I don’t know what to do about it. When I make a big deal about it she just starts doing it for attention, but when I ignore it that can get dangerous too! It’s kinda funny in a dangerous way. It’s usually toilet paper. But at the dinnertable she sticks any thing that is ear-sized. Green beans has been a favorite. One time when we were travelling back up the province I was handing her Wendy’s french fries. Just out of curiosity I checked her ears and sure enough! When we got Marilyn's house she had one shoved prety far up there we had to buy special tweezers to get it out! I’ve been to the doctor about it . Thankfully all that he has found is some wax build-up in one ear. His lame brain idea is to try keeping a bonnet on it so she can’t get at her ears. Yeah that lasted a whole 3o seconds, then she had a bonnet hanging around her neck. A great safety hazard! Any suggestions friends/ family???

Old Mc Dennis Had a farm EI-EI-O






After Christmas we went to Brooke Steed and Brett Clelland’s Wedding. It was great , She looked gorgeous. It was so nice to catch up with all the cousins. I wish I got some pictures. I wasn’t thinking. That night we stayed out at the ol’ Smith farm. I love Staying there it’s so noststalgic. Dennis and Joan were so hospitable! Joan was up early makin pancakes and porridge. After breakfast Uncle Dennis took Jonah for a tractor ride.We all got to ride on the quad. There is nothing sweeter than a southern Alberta landscape with mountains in the background. I hope we can go out there this summmer.

The rise and fall of the living room fort






Dale is such a fun dad! I was out one Saturday morning and came home to every blanket, and pillow we own encompassing the livingroom floor. I didn’t stay a fort for more then 10 mintutes because we all know what 2 year olds like to do…
