My Favourite Books to Read Pace at Bedtime

Pace is two and a half now and so I thought it'd be fun to do a list of the books I like to read him at bedtime (note: these are *my* favourites to read.  His favourites list would include: “That book about diggers”, “That book about fire trucks”, “That book about tractors” and “That […]

Saturday Snap – Glowing at the Arcade

We took Pace to an indoor playground yesterday since it's been -30 here for a week and we were starting to go stir crazy.  This was a shot we snapped in the playground's arcade area which has black lights in the ceiling:

Where Does Daddy Work? Where Does Mommy Work?

It's been a long time since I posted a video clip of Pace.  This is his understanding of where his mother and I work:(If you can't make it out, he says daddy works at “library books!” and mommy works at “needles!” )

Saturday Snap – Rider Nation (November 7, 2009)

Tonight, the Riders clinched the CFL's Western Division for the first time in thirty-three years.  (We won't spend time contemplating this level of futility in what has long been a four-team division – yikes!)  Anyhow, since I used my most current Rider-themed photo last week, I thought I'd dig in the archives for one from […]

Saturday Snap – Open Daddy, Open!

We had our annual RPL Staff Conference on Friday (I've had a request for more thoughts on the conference which I'll do later – maybe tomorrow.)  Part of the day's festivities was a silent auction of gift baskets put together by the various units and branches throughout the library, all in support of United Way.  […]

Misadventures in iPhonery

Shea, Pace and I went for a bite to eat before a doctor's appointment late this afternoon to check on the status of my leg (I'd gone to a clinic to get it looked at originally so my family doctor hadn't seen it yet.)  Pace, not having had a nap today, was a bit restless […]

Saturday Snap – Does The Blue Mean You're A Leafs Fan Now Daddy?

[Edit: I just realised that “Saturday Snap” was probably never more appropriate as a title!]No, not it does not!  Just that none of the other options (bright orange, glow-in-the-dark white, camouflage) appealed to daddy's highly evolved sense of fashion.  Man, thinking more about it – I played rec hockey with this team for almost ten […]

Friday Fun Link – My Parents Were Awesome (Oct 9, 2009)

I think I sort of blew Pace's mind the other day when we were talking and I said “Daddy used to be little like you are now.”  You could see the wheels turning and then he replied in a slightly awed voice, “Daddy no big?  Daddy little?”  Yep.  Being a father really brings home how […]
