You're My Lobster...

Welcome: Newest Addition to our lobster family from the Maritimes.

Recently, Jackson said to us...

I have a Daddy lobster and a baby lobster, but no Mommy lobster.

Thankfully our good friend Sam happened to be going back east the next week.

And she brought back a Mommy lobster to complete our happy little family!

(PS She's the one with the pretty blue bow, don'tcha know)

Visiting Baby Hannah and other adventures...

We had an amazing visit to see our new baby cousin/niece.

Our adorable Hannah-Bear (as Jackson has now named her).

We had some great cuddles and snuggles with the family.

Can't wait to see all the new adventures and fun awaiting these cousins.

New Long Awaited Arrival!!

It's been nine months for anticipation and

excitement and wonder.Curiosity and

questions followed as did happiness and elation. We are so proud to share with you the news of Jackson's newest baby cousin.....

Hannah Abigial Logie

Born January 2

And Jackson can't wait to get his hands on those little fingers and toes! And give her many little kisses and hugs.

Congratulations Uncle Scott & Aunty Joy!

Jackson has a New Ride!

Santa couldn't quite get this one down the chimney so it was parked in the backyard for Jackson on Christmas morning.

He loves his new motorized ATV/quad. And just today he discovered the Turbo power handle while trekking through Papa's orchard. More speed for our little daredevil...Yeehaw!

Glimpses of Christmas 2010

Catch a few snapshots here and there of how we celebrated this Christmas.

Jackson is Three

Weekend of Birthday Fun

For Jackson's third birthday we decided to take advantage of the wonderful white winter weather. A day of sledding and fun was the plan.

Enjoy the photos of our adventures on our way to three....

Wintery (not Christmas) cupcakes for munching after a hard day on the hills.

One of three rides down the hill for our ill little guy.

He wasn't feeling so well in the morning and he persevered through the bus ride to the mountain, then literally couldn't hold it in any longer, poor Uncle Spencer, and he got sick. Pink snow is not a lovely colour when it's homemade. But don't worry, once we were home with all the friends and had a little food, he was up and about and totally tearing around the house with the rest of our guests. You would never have known we was just sick a few hours before.

A look at all the assorted snow riding selections.

Keeping warm, enjoying snacks and hitting the hills = fun, fun, fun!

Great day to go sledding!

The birthday celebrations continued into the 19th, Jackson's actual birth date.

Our Cars fanatic requested, 'A red car cake with a smile.' AKA McQueen.

This is my first attempt at a fondant cake. I made the fondant myself from a marshmallow fondant recipe. Then made a chocolate cake with chocolate filling. Not as easy as the webpage suggested, but totally worth it when Jackson saw it the next morning.

He was impressed that it looked like McQueen but was very quick to point out the missing tail lights and stripes. What can I say, my kid is a stickler for details....

(The outside looks really white due to the powdered sugar needed to shape the cake. It eventually absorbed into the fondant.)

Still can't believe we have a three year old!

Happy Birthday Jackson!
