Andrew has been gradually getting closer and closer to walking and started to put 2 and 3 steps together over the weekend.  He had a real breakthrough tonight and repeatedly walked back and forth between Louise and I in the kitchen.  We thought he was trouble before…

Andrew is a serious troublemaker. Once in awhile he gets caught red-handed. Or blue-handed…

Although most of the late winter and early spring has been beautiful and warm, we’ve had a couple of really freak snow storms recently to remind us that the weather in Calgary is completely unpredictable… During one such episode recently we all had to go out and build a giant snow fort on the front lawn…

It has been snowing all day today and nobody really wanted to venture outside, so I got out my lighting gear and went to work instead.

There was some beautiful light coming in through the window in the living room that I wanted to take advantage of, so I set up one light on a stand and balanced it against the window light from the opposite side.

Everybody got in on the action and I got some nice shots of everybody, even Fergus!

This one comes from the “Dreaming of Happier Times” file.  After a long spell of beautiful spring weather, the reality of life in Calgary came crashing back home when it started snowing yesterday morning, and really hasn’t stopped since!

So here’s an album from last week when we went to the dog park.  Fergus got a good romp and Melanie really enjoyed her bike ride.  Melanie is sporting her brand new helmet in these pictures.  It took some very fast talking to convince her that we should get the black helmet with flames on the side (because they make her look fast!) instead of the pink one.  Of course the real reason is so that we can pass it down to Andrew eventually, but she was convinced about the fast thing anyway and she tells everyone she meets while she’s wearing it!
