It is important to keep up with your fitness!

Kellen loves to play games on my Wii Fit! He thinks it is pretty cool that he runs on this board and the person on the television will copy him! He loves to play an obstacle course where you run and have to jump over things...here he is running and jumping along!
Winner!!!!

I love Wii!!!

Yikes...it is Cold Outside!!!

Last week, it was crazy cold outside....it was around -25 degrees....yikes!! Kellen loves to play outside and really wanted to help Shawn shovel the driveway. He likes to climb up the "hill" at the bottom of the yard (where all the snow piles up from shovelling!) and slide down the other end...however, this time, he fell face first from the top of the hill! He was stuck, face down in a star position.....it was soooo funny to see! Kellen didn't see the humour in this - here he is very upset and very cold!

Ear Troubles....again

As most of you know, Kellen has had lots of problems with ear infections. It appeared that the problems were a thing of the past, but unfortunately, the ear infections have returned. Since Christmas, Kellen has had back-to-back colds which leads to ear infections. The tubes have come out of his ears which is causing the ear infections to be pretty bad. Today, his specialist advised us that once again, Kellen needs to have surgery on his ears and have tubes put in again. Poor kid....I hate the idea of him having another surgery, especially after seeing how rough it was on him last time. However, he needs to have it done to stop the pain and discomfort he is always feeling, and to bring his hearing levels back to normal. So, right after his birthday party, Kellen is scheduled for his surgery on March 7....not quite the birthday present he was hoping for!

Proud of His Artwork!

Kellen loves doing arts and crafts....he is always asking to do arts and crafts at home, and loves to come home and show us what he did at daycare. Here he is showing us his mittens and hat craft.
"You wear the hat like this, mommy!"

Kellen's New Way to Watch TV

The other day while I was preparing dinner, Kellen says "Come look at me, Momma!". I walk into the living room to see Kellen just lying on the side of the couch. He likes to just lie there while watching television.
Feeling blah (over the past few days, his ears have been bothering him alot).....but....

....he is still in great spirits!!!

Gaming

So, ever since I got my IPod, it seems that Kellen uses it more than I do! There are so many apps (applications) for games designed for toddlers. We downloaded lots of these games and Kellen has quickly picked up how to play all of them! It is pretty funny to watch a 2 year old scrolling and moving things around on a touch screen like an old pro! Here he is playing a monkey game and no one could break his concentration!

My New Cousin, Lauren!

This an extra picture from Christmas.....baby Lauren is 4 months old now and she was always asleep while we were in Brockville which made it difficult to get her in some of the pictures! So, I thought I would introduce her with this cute picture of Grandpa enjoying a talk with his grand-daughter....isn't she adorable!
