Well, not a lot of new stuff going on, but I figure that I should update the Kwas blog because I said I would. Both Tracy and I have been busy with work. Tracy is loving her new job (and new office - not a cubicle). She's been doing lots of reading at home trying to figure out what to tell moms whose children are picky eaters (you mean every one's kid doesn't like grapefruit and sushi?). I'm just busy doing what I do and trying to convince people that I should be going on our school's travel club trip to Italy/Greece/Turkey at Easter. I think I'm almost there too.

Dom's been busy playing with Grandma, then with Sam and Susan, then with Aunty Amanda, and it was a bit of an adjustment going back to Jen's but I think a lot of that had to do with a bug that he caught (hmmm, who was the last one to babysit him? Don't hire that one again!). But he's come through a-okay and is almost back to his regular self.

Now for the pictures. We took a little trip to the Calgary Zoo and Calaway Park on September long weekend and although it was tough to tell sometimes, I think Dom loved it. I say this because he was never really excited about the rides, he just didn't want to get off. His favourite animal was probably the Giraffe but the monkeys were right up there too. Favourite ride, hands down was the train. The options were a little limited though due to his height (damn his mother's genes!).

That's all for now. Thanks to everyone who babysat and to everyone whose coming to visit make sure to bring food to feed the animals!

Yeah for Tracy!

Alright, a quick update on our little family. Before our holiday to Quebec, Tracy applied for a job and because she was so qualified they postponed the interviews until she got back. Well, long story short, she got the position and is now the new Out-Patient Dietitian for Lehtbridge. I don't know what this means (except no raise) other then she no longer has to work with only old people and she now works out of the health unit (aka the Train Station).
Also, the Summer of Dom is over as I return to work and have to start dealing with other people's children again. Should be a good year though. Some new staff in our school and that positive outlook that always comes from the beginning of the year. I'm psyched!
Alright y'all, have a great weekend. Tracy, Dom, and I are off to Calgary and the Zoo for the weekend, so we should have some fun.
I'll sign off with another picture from Quebec (Who taught him to kiss?).
