Gwen is 9 months old!

Little Gwenny passed the 9 month mark this week. She is growing up so fast! Cara and Mummy took her to the doctor for her check up and Gwen weighs in at 22lbs and is 27.5" tall. She is so happy all the time and is enjoying moving around and exploring. We love her!

We went to Taste of Calgary this weekend. It is a street festival where different restaurants do taste sized samples of their food so people get to try lots of things. We tried: Polish sausage, Curried Chickpeas, Coconut Curry Chicken, Greek potatoes, fried plantain, Vietnamese iced coffee, Watermelon slush with mango bubbles, veg chow mein, chocolate covered strawberries and Saffron ice cream. Cara also got a yummy veggie sandwich from Hellman's Mayo people.

The best thing was the Coconut Curry Chicken...it was awesome. The Saffron ice cream was...interesting...like perfume ice cream. We had a great time - Gwen napped and Cara tried a few things.

Before going home we stopped at a playground. Gwen and Daddy shared a swing.

On Saturday we had a beach party with our Baby Group. We didn't take many pictures but Cara had a great time! The babies are all little kids now and there are lots of new babies.

Sunday was hot! Cara and Gwen cooled down with the sprinkler.

Gwen was very brave and would crawl right to the water and enjoyed getting wet!

Cara loved it too (as usual)!

Gwen tried lasagna. She loved it.

We continued out faucet replacement with a new bathroom faucet. This one is great because Cara can reach it from her step!
