Preschool & Friend School in Full Force!

After getting back from our holiday escapades, we've settled back into our weekly routine. We started a new session of Mommy & Me preschool and this time we have several playgroup friends in class with us, which Keira enjoys. And we are also continuing with Friend School, which Keira also really loves.


At Ethan's house, we learned all about ice and things that are cold, such as this igloo!

Ice skating

We also got to celebrate Ethan's 3rd birthday, which was very special!

He didn't want to blow out the candles, so Katie helped him
