Friday Coffee Playgroup
Here's Paisley and a bunch of her friends. Cashlin (laying down on his back), Railynn, Joel, Paisley and Merideth. Paisley's getting close to crawling. She gets up on all 4's and can kinda wiggle her way forward, but she hasn't quite figured it out yet (THANKFULLY).
Joel is the oldest of the group (8 months), followed by Merideth (7 months), and then Railynn, Cashlin and Paisley are all within about 10 days of each other. It's amazing to see them all develop, all are doing things the others aren't doing, and seem to pick up different things.
I love friday afternoon coffee. We have a lot of fun, the kids play, and we all chat.

Josh's photos
Josh has done a bunch of family photos for friends lately (for Christmas), and I think he did a great job on them, so I wanted to share them with you all.
This is my friend's step daughter.

First hockey game!
BABY SHOWER~!
Well I've been planning this shower for a few months (with the help of another friend Amanda (Joel's mom)). Jane was completely suprised, had no clue about the shower when she arrived. It was fantastic!
Anyway, the day worked out very well, everyone enjoyed themselves, and I think Jane was just flabbergasted.
I tried my hand at a diaper cake. I loved how it turned out.... but unfortunately, I forgot to take a picture of it. I was quite proud of it. It was a Winnie the Pooh theme.
One of the "games" at the shower was if people wanted to, they could make a blank scrapbook page that would go in an album, so Jane could just put the baby pictures in it. That was a hit. we had 3 guests who had never scrapbooked before, and they each did at least 3 pages. We may have gotten them hooked. We got quite a number of pages in the end, and it will all look great once I compile the album this week.
I only managed to take a few pictures, as Paisley started to fuss and I spent much of the gift opening time upstairs trying to get her down for a nap.

Grabby-grabby
Paisley likes to grab any toys the other kids are playing with. She likes to be in control of all the toys around.
Play group.
Here's the play group at the coffee shop again. You can see the very pregnant Jane in the background (with the next member of the play group).
Paisley's Hairpulling
Paisley loves to pull hair... especially mine. Here she got hold of Meredith's.
Yay, visitors!

You may ask why
And you may find this hard to believe... but we only post a FRACTION of the pictures we take. Yeah, we take a lot of pictures of Paisley. On the plus side, I'll have lots to choose from as I do her scrapbook.
Vancouver - Yeomans
Nothing like food to make this girl happy. Make shift high chair at Great Grandma's, she loves to sit at the table with everyone!
Vancouver - Yeomans
Great Grandma actually was quite eager to hold her. I think Paisley got to sit with her 3 times, and Grandma really enjoyed it.
Vancouver - Yeomans
My cousin and his wife Melissa had a baby 3 weeks after Paisley. So this is a picture of Paisley and her relative closest in age, Zoe.
Vancouver - Yeomans
Here's Paisley meeting the Yeomans side of the family. Here's my cousin Erin and her youngest daughter. Paisley just woke up here.
Vancouver - Jen
Paisley got to meet my friend Jen when we were in Vancouver as well. Jen took us shopping for a day, and carted us and our luggage around. :)

Better than M&M's
Here's the recipe:
2 lb. (900 g) lean ground beef
1 pkg. (120 g) STOVE TOP Stuffing Mix for Chicken
1 cup water
2 eggs, beaten
1/2 cup KRAFT Original BarBQ Sauce, divided
PREHEAT oven to 375°F. Mix all ingredients except 1/4 cup of the barbecue sauce.
SHAPE meat mixture into oval loaf in 13x9-inch baking dish; top with remaining 1/4 cup barbecue sauce.
BAKE 1 hour or until cooked through (160ºF).
I used more BBQ sauce... and it was Hickory flavoured. I didn't measure... just squirted it in, and then on top. I also made it in a loaf pan.

42 Days til Christmas!
:) I'm very excited to get some of these projects done. Also thinking I will try to get my tree up this week. I just have to decide where I want to put it.
We just got back from the Vancouver area yesterday. We flew down on Friday morning, and flew out on Monday night. We got to see a good majority of my extended family, so Paisley got to meet A LOT of aunts, uncles and cousins, as well as Great Grandma Yeomans. We will post pictures later today.
But I'm off to get a few things done while Paisley naps.
