Hi all,

We are getting ready to go out to do some shopping, Roanna still has to pick up a couple of items for next weeks wedding, and we are going to price a new love seat, ours is a bit old, (second hand) and after awhile it does you back no good.... Might as well take advantage of the holiday sale weekend.

Yesterday we went to April & Mark's, a pre-Canada day for friends with kids, lotsa kids... Here was a cute photo from the party.

Elizabeth was quite good at the party for 99% of the time, though she did get a bit grumpy on the drive home, but it wasn't to bad.

There has been some success on the bottle front, though so far she hasn't drank more than 40 ml in one sitting. It seems that she doesn't cry as much, or complain as much, so hopefully it gets a bit more better. Roanna has been reading "baby books" and apparently we were supposed to have introduced the bottle at about week four.... ah well. So far the plan is to still leave her with the Grandparents on Saturday, but the back up plan is to take her with us, we shall see.....

We went to the clinic on Tuesday, for her shots, and she was very good, she got measured, just a tad under 24 inches, which puts her in the 90 to 95 % group on the baby chart, and she was weighed, 11lbs 15oz, which put her in the 10% group on the baby chart. So she is lean and lanky, last night we had to break out the 9 month onesies, just a bit long, but the 3 month stuff is just not fitting her.

The pic above was taken when she was in a happy mood, or zoned out from all the shots she got this week, either way, she was pretty good for a while.

Aside from that, the weather is good, work is dull, the car goes in this week for repairs, we have an ABS sensor gone on the car, so it has to be replaced, part cost is over 300 bucks.... not even including the labour.....ah well, could be worse, we could be owning a boat...

Everyone have a great Canada Day, for all you Canadian readers, and a good week for all the rest.

Take care,

Ian, Roanna & Elizabeth.
