– I spent three afternoons in the kitchen making pureed baby food for Isla. It was a lot of work, but it should last us a while! I whizzed up carrots, green beans, peas, yams, sweet potatoes, and butternut squash and just froze them in ice cube trays for portion control. Too easy!

– Isla had her last swimming lesson yesterday and she got her report card. She passed with flying colours and is now a “Starfish!” We’ll probably take a break until the fall for lessons since Kyle’s mom has a pool, but I can’t wait to take her back :) (Even though Is don’t like public pools.)

– Chinese New Year is this Sunday and we’re celebrating the Year of the Snake! The morning news had Lion dancers on this morning and Isla was fascinated by them! I hope she grows up to appreciate her Chinese heritage even though she’s only 1/4 Chinese. For those of you who have no idea what the Lion Dance is … here’s a YouTube video! I’ve always found them to be amazing, but that’s just me.

– I’m so excited to be volunteering for HugABull tomorrow morning at their welcoming event in Kamloops! Plus, I get to play with some of their foster pups. YAY PUPPIES! Actually, they’ll be full-grown dogs, but whatever. PUPPIES!

That’s it for this morning. Happy Friday, and Gung Hay Fat Choy!
