Playdate.

I recently took on a new position at the library. It pays a bit better and has more responsibilities but for the time being it has a lot less hours. I am only working a guaranteed 10 hours a week, however the benefits of a lighter work schedule include a now weekly playdate with my beautiful niece. Starting in September we will be doing skating lessons during that time. For now however it has included visits to the Ontario Early Years Centre (which a awesome if you have one near you it is great and probably right up there with the library for our favourite places to visit). We spend our post lunch in a bit of quite time (this big girl is past naps) with movies and cuddles on the couch. The warm afternoons have then either been spent at the splash pad or local kids pool. The pool is wonderful as most of it is shin high and the deep end is only up to my waist, she loves it because of all of the toys and being able to do it all by herself. So we have been having lots of fun together as the summer comes to an end, but I am very excited for her to start skating in the fall and she is excited as long as the teacher is a girl.

Tea towels make the best baby blankets.
