A Visit to the Canadian Grandparents
Alette and I got away for a quick weekend visit to my parent's in BC. Mom turned 60 and we figured the presence of a grandchild would alleviate the pain of turning old (tee hee).
Alette had a great time exploring her new weekend environment. Her favorite spot was the kitchen tupperware drawer, especially once she figured out how to climb into it. She also had a great time at Granville Island. There were so many new smells, colors and things to look at! We spent lots of time looking at seafood, flowers, fabrics, fruits, and vegetables. Alette of course, refused to taste any of the samples. She was also fascinated by the seagulls, with our cats she really doesn't see too many birds.
Grandma and Grandpa did most of the parenting for the weekend, which made it busy for them and a real vacation for me. Alette made sure Grandpa didn't nap for long, or sit in his chair for long, or ignore her for long. She's a real social bug and loves to play and be cuddled! She also loved the long bathes Grandma gave her, none of the quick dips I give her in the rush of daily life. She was a great traveller!(hopefully we can do this trip again in the summer to catch up with friends we didn't get a chance to see)
