Scott Mission

Yesterday all of the guys in the second year course had the opportunity to travel to Scott Mission in Toronto and work serving the homeless. Having grown up in rural Ontario it was quite the reminder of the hardships that exist and also of the fact that there are things that we, or anyone, […]

First Haircut!

Canaan got his first haircut yesterday! He did pretty good! Dana, Norm’s sister, cut it and she did a great job. Thanks Dana. =)

Bananas - MMMMM!

Meal time is always exciting for Canaan. The challenge for us is to make it fun but still a meal! He has found the game of blowing raspberries as soon as we put food (especially mushy food) into his mouth. He’ll eat pretty well anything, though sometimes new textures don’t agree with […]

Over the past month we’ve worked on this new page using Wordpress. […]

10 months!

WOW! Can he really be that old already? He is growing up far too fast.

Canaan’s first nasty injury!

Canaan had quite the day yesterday. The whole day started off with a little poop taste testing… yuck! And ended off with a nice big cut on his hand. He was wondering around the house like usual… and he went in to the bedroom… like normal… but this time we heard a loud crash […]

Fun with our Photobooth

This past weekend Adam (a childhood friend), my brother Ken and his friend Brenden came over to visit. It wasn’t long before we were gathered around the computer making all kinds of strange faces. Check out the bizarre and sometimes scary creations:
