Quinten with Great Grammpy Ken Aston

Quinten is losing his shyness with his great grandparents. Today, he was a great kid as we visited Wenda's parents in Lindsay. Quinten traveled well and showed a particular curiosity for Ken's amateur radio equipment.

Nana Reads a Story

It is the first day of the March Break and the boys came over for a visit with us. Allan spent an hour with Aiden at the library. We went for a walk with both boys, and played with them most of the day in our house.

In the end, there is nothing like sitting down with Nana and a good book.

Quinten's First Steps

Quinten is getting a great deal of excitement by walking this week. Here are some of his first steps walking between Tracy and Wenda. When he gets to one or the other he giggles and claps along with the rest of us. Sometimes he does an impression of Elvis Presley as he gets his but going. Yesterday, he was standing at a kiddy piano keyboard of his, turned and walked right across the living room floor. It is just about time that he gives up his current nickname of "Scooter".

First Time on Skates

Aiden's dad Frank and his grandad Luigi made a skating rink in the back yard. It was a late start to the season as the first half of winter has been unusually mild. Aiden is learning that one must take "baby steps" at first when learning to skate. Mom is doing her best as a skating instructor.
