Uncle Jeff's House

On the weekend we went to my brother's place on the island. Ferry troubles aside it was a good weekend. Hannah doesn't see Uncle Jeff much so she had to get reaquainted with him. Fortunately she doesn't play shy with most people so it didn't take long before they had some fun together. (Hannah seems to enjoy her paparazzi and hammed it up for Uncle Jeff and his camera.) We visited his store and Hannah wasted no time picking out her favourite bike -- a little pink one with a basket on the front, flowers all over it and training wheels on the back. I know what to get her for Christmas a few years from now!







A note to anyone thinking of taking the ferry during the summer months: Make reservations!!!! Especially if you have an 11 month old. It is definitely worth the fifteen dollars. We missed the ferry on the way over because of an accident on the Lions gate and had to wait one sailing. On the way back there was so much traffic we had to wait four hours for the ferry! Ugh! At least the weather was nice and Hannah was very cooperative. We got sore feet from walking her around and we were all tired and a bit stressed by the time we got on the 8:50 sailing. We found the front seat of the car to be a good source of distraction for a while (and a cute photo op). She finally fell asleep in the car on the way home and we got home around midnight. All in all it was a good trip though. Hannah slept amazingly well in the playpen which is an answer to prayer since she has hated it up til now and this was a bit of trial run for camping later this summer.We played Settlers, the cities and knights version and liked it so much we stopped and bought it there before heading home.

Hannah and Daddy on the ferry ride over to the island. She likes "beeping" Jason's nose.















Hannah was a bit alarmed when she noticed the student driver sign on the captain's window!!


Blogger is having some troubles posting the rest of the pictures so I will have to try again later.




Here's some more pics... Hannah loved the car!
