Before The Big Goodbye

Today was the last full day with my mother-in-law. She will be flying back to Slovakia tomorrow after an afternoon in Vancouver BC. It's so sad to have her go, just like it was sad to have my father-in-law go home. Toddler loves his grandma so very much. We'll have to wait a whole year this time to see them again. I'm thankful for Skype as that gives us a way to kinda see each other.

This weekend we went on a hike just like we did last year. This year Toddler did much better and I only had to carry him when we fell down scraping his knees. His favorite part was running down with daddy as it was a never ending hill. I think the two of them ran a whole mile, stopping just to make sure they were ahead of both the grandma's.

When we got home everyone thought Toddler would be knocked out sleeping from exhaustion, but he was the only one that was so full of energy. He didn't nap despite our 4 hour hike. I wished I had his energy as I still had a photo-shoot to do.







Speaking of photo-shoots, last week I had one and needed my mother-in-laws help which meant Toddler got to come with us. For the first half hour he was busy cutting grass with my scissors, but them he started photo bombing my shoot. I tell him to more, but he's just stare like a deer in the headlights. That's the last time little man gets to tag along with me as I missed the perfect find that sent my lace flowing. Sounds funny and it kinda was because in the end it's not big deal, my little man is more important to me.



The great news is all my work that I needed to get done within 2 weeks is complete and my desk didn't suffer as much as I thought it would. My coffee cup did take some abuse as I had so many cups that I lost track.










An outtake that I'm enjoying.
