Ethan's First Vacation!



Ethan and I are currently in Fort Saskatchewan, Alberta and my sisters place (Aunt Dee Dee a.k.a Natalie). We flew in on Saturday March 28th, Ethan was amazing on the plane, he was so excited when we first got our seat, he was sanding up looking out the window at everything going on before take off. We were lucky to have no one assigned to the two seats beside us, so we had three seats to ourselves! Ethan napped for some of the flight and for the remainder he played with his toys and watched tv, the flight attendant even let him push some buttons! Too bad he'll never remember that. The only time he fussed was during the decent, I think it bothered his ears, so I sang to him to comfort him, it seemed to work.






When we got to my sisters place a childhood friend that we grew up with in Iron Bridge came over with her two little girls, so Ethan had his first out of province play date.

Ethan loves hugging other babies!



Sunday we went into the city (Edmonton) to the West Edmonton Mall. We didn't do as much shopping as we did picture talking! We had so much fun, it is great to have Ethan to share these memories with.

Mommy and Ethan looking at the fountain, Ethan loves the moving water!


Ethan and Aunt Dee Dee


Big smiles!


You can't go the the West Edmonton Mall without standing in the whales mouth!


And we had to check out the indoor ice rink!


We had to stop and look at one more fountain!


Checking out the pirate ship with mommy!



He's all smiles!



We didn't have too much to do when Aunt Dee Dee was at work, so we did a lot of walking... Here is Ethan all bundled up for a brisk Fort Sakatchewan walk.


Tomorrow we are heading to our friend Melissa's house, just south of Red Deer. Friday morning we are driving to Banff and spending the night in Calgary, I am so anxious to see the mountains!

I will post again when I can, thinking of our family in Ontario, we love and miss you all... Especially Ethan's Daddy (love you Jonathan)
