Davis Bay Wharf

In the afternoon after all the babies woke up from their naps, we all got in the car and drove down to the coast.  Peanut was intrigued by the ketchup chips that Dada bought.

We stopped for lunch at a small cafe and Janie got some potato leek soup.

The babies were sleeping so this is the best we could do for a group photo.

Janie rode on Uncle Jason’s shoulders for a good part of our time on the wharf.

Peanut eventually woke up so we got some photos taken with him.

This afternoon, we went to Auntie Amy and Amelia’s house for an early dinner.  Janie and Amelia played in their “clubhouse” and shared stickers.

Uncle Eric bought and butchered a whole pig for the family.

The little girls ate together and looked like two best friends gabbing about this and that.

Peanut also got pretty fussy this afternoon but Aunties Kelly and Lori were able to calm him down.

We had lunch with the family today and Janie got to meet Amelia, Auntie Amy’s little girl, who is almost 3 years old.  They shared stickers together and sat next each other as they ate.

SFO to YVR

IMG_1214

We flew to Vancouver today for a family vacation.

IMG_1221

We left the house at 7am and were all checked in by 8am.  Look at these darling babies all packed up and ready to fly.

IMG_1223

This was our corner for about an hour while Dada and Uncle Jason were both on work calls.

IMG_1224

Janie liked looking out the window while we were waiting to board.  The flight was delayed about 30 minutes today.

IMG_1226

Once on the plane, our family of 4 got settled pretty quickly.

IMG_1227

Janie got to play on her iPad and Peanut fell asleep.

IMG_1231

The kids then switched jobs and Janie fell asleep once Peanut was awake.

IMG_1234

There’s Vancouver!!  It’s almost time to land!

IMG_1238

We waited for everyone to deplane so Peanut got to hang out in his seat while big sister went to the lavatory with Dada.

IMG_1243

Janie was super excited to be in Vancouver and did a great job traveling today!

IMG_1244

Peanut also did great – especially for his first ride on a plane.  Thankfully, it was a short 2-hour flight.

IMG_1245

As we walked through the airport to get through immigration and baggage claim, he fell asleep.  This boy had an exciting morning.

IMG_1248

Our first stop at the airport was the Tim Horton’s for TimBits (donut holes).

IMG_1253

Janie picked out chocolate and got a big carton of milk too.  This is us waiting for our rental car.  Let’s get this vacation started!!!

His buddy Max was there too and they gave each other fist bumps.

He was pretty tired by 1:00 so Auntie Karen rocked him to sleep in the “PT hold”

bedtime

IMG_1096

This evening, Janie was so tired from a full day outside (without a nap) that she changed into her pjs all on her own and started tucking everyone in for the night.  Dada fell asleep on the sofa and she gave him Squirt as his bedtime friend.  Mama got GoGo.

IMG_1098

She set-up camp in her clubhouse but then changed her mind and slept on the rug in front of the fan.  It was an early bedtime for everyone and she was out by 8pm.
