Calendar Girl

Favourite monkey

Ada and I have been really enjoying this wonderful weather. Isn't it fabulous? We've been out every day enjoying the fresh air and the sun on our faces. We've been walking along the harbourfront every chance we can get, chasing ducks and seagulls and laughing at the dogs prancing around in the sun. We went to Centre Island a couple of weeks ago to celebrate my birthday with a fun bunch of friends, and Ada enjoyed her first picnic lunch (of pureed mangoes and squash) and played on picnic blankets watching us running around with kites and frisbees.

And for her teeth count: She now has two adorable teeth coming up on her bottom gums. Her new nickname: Chompers.

She's really been getting active, rolling around easily now, and insisting on marching around chasing animals and toddlers. And she's talking up a storm these days. Here's a cute video of her helping me sing "Old MacDonald Had a Farm":



And on to some exciting news! We all know that our little Ada is an adorable girl. Well a couple of months ago we had the opportunity to have Ada take part in a photo shoot for a calendar to raise funds for the SickKids Foundation. We didn't know for sure if she would definitely be a part of the calendar, especially since she spent most of the photo shoot chewing on her mittens or toes. I found out this morning that she has indeed been chosen to be part of the calendar! The photographer, Elaine Tran, hasn't told me which picture will be used or which month she will be in, but I will find out soon enough. During the photo shoot she said that Ada will likely be in the winter months (probably January, February, or March), but I'll keep everyone posted! We're really excited to be part of such a great project for this important foundation. So make sure you all get the 2008 SickKids Calendar!
