9 months old......................

It's hard to believe we're at the 9 month mark already....where is the time going?

Mackenzie had another first this week...say bye, bye to the mullet!!! Mackenzie went for her first hair cut and did very well.

Mackenzie, Maddie and Jackson

Jenn and I have promised the girls this is the first and only time we will dress them alike and take some pictures. (i think jenn had her fingers crossed behind her back when we said this...he, he)

Uncle Jason, Auntie Jenn, Maddie, Sammi and Bosco stayed for a few days while on their way back home to Roblin for a wedding.

Bumbo chairs are not only good for sitting in........

they're great for teething too!!

the deck building sagga continues with the upper deck continuing to get a face lift. as jackson would say "we've got work to do" daddy!!

Tonight was a beautiful night.............

After supper we all went outside to enjoy the beautiful night. As you can see our deck is having a makeover. We've decided to give the upper deck (old deck) a facelift and Jayson is replacing the boards and we are putting on new railing...next summer comes the paint job.

Mackenzie is enjoying her first solo flight in the swing auntie shelley got for her. It pays to go garage saleing....shelley picked the swing up for a whole 5 dollars!! (it's 35.00 at canadian tire)

here's trouble
