Random monday stuff

This morning was Junior Kindergarten registration for Isabella. I lost track of the amount of forms we had to fill out (I think we were there for 1.5-2 hours). Isabella had a blast playing with some boys whose parents were also there registering them for school. We got to go on a tour of the school and Isabella just loved being there. She's been asking since she could talk if we could take her to school. I can't believe that time is fast approaching.

I am THOROUGHLY enjoying working only 3 days a week. I feel alot less stressed because now I have 4 days to get everything done rather than 2 and that is a big difference.

When Isabella gets really annoyed with me she refers to me as 'Julia' instead of 'mom'...although lately she just calls me 'dear' (ie. "I'm coming dear!"). No idea where that came from.

Simon's favourite thing to do these days is lift up people's shirts and stick his finger in your belly button...and often not very gently.

I'm excited for dinner tonight. On the menu are things that I've made before and were a big hit. (Photos from my sister Kim's flickr set because she has made these recipes too and unlike her, I'm always too lazy to take photos of the end results). Recipes are in the links to Kim's flickr.
