Julia and Emily's World

Pictures at the park from the weekend. Julia still likes the baby swing although she is looking kind of big in it now.

Although our vacation to Florida was shortened by Pepere's sudden passing, we had many fun moments on our trip. Julia was absolutely thrilled to meet the Princesses again and was also thrilled to meet Minnie this time. Julia got to ride on her favourite Disney ride, Dumbo! We spent two days at Magic Kingdom and one day at Sea World. The condo we rented was amazing. The pool and playground were great. It was a three bedroom condo. This is the actual video of the condo ( VIDEO ). Julia slept in the room with the queen sized bed. The condo was 10 minutes from Magic Kingdom. Unlike last year, our flights were uneventful and our overall airport experience was actually stress free. Julia was so well behaved for the entire trip! Not one melt down! She was very understanding about coming home early and did not complain at all. I look forward to doing it again.

Pepère (May 29, 1941 - May 12, 2008)

Today we celebrated Selena's 1st Communion. Selena did great in church. After the church we went back to Selena's for lunch and desserts.

Saturday was Grandma's birthday. This was the third birthday we celebrated this week! There was actually a 4th that we didn't make it to, Russell's first birthday. We went over for lunch and cake.

Julia completed her swimming lessons this weekend. She is progressing nicely. She is more and more comfortable in the water. I think she will be actually swimming soon.

Today Julia helped my celebrate my birthday. Today I turned 30 (wink wink). Julia "suprised" me with a birthday cake. She was very proud to keep that secret from me.
