Wordless Wednesday - The Sweetest Things
After baths my husband always sits with my daughter and brushes her hair 100 strokes.
Passport photo as promised
Sorry it took so long, but here is a shot of her passport photo. She followed protocol and did not smile :o) I did that too but mine is definitely not as cute!

What's that hand doing?
Brea's waving! It's getting more and more consistent now and so cute! Though there are times when she still seems surprised by what her hands are doing as in this video :o)

A morning soliloquy
Brea has been more and more vocal lately, especially after meals. Once she's fed, she wants to share all of her thoughts! Here is a typical morning conversation after breakfast. As you can see, she's very intent on getting her message across :o)
Of Fish and Bread
Brea has been smitten by fish and bread lately.
She devours it, gobbles it up, mushes it all over her face.
Trout, salmon, halibut - she loves to eat these fishies from the sea.
And bread... not your run of the mill regular white bread, nay it must be artisan bread for my little gourmet. She loves the Cranberry Semolina from A Bread Affair at the Farmer's Market on Sundays and the Turkish Bread from COBS Bread.

A busy Saturday
Whew! What a busy Saturday!
Brea was woken this morning by a seriously annoying car alarm out on the street and was a very grumpy little girl. Unfortunately, this morning was also one of the only times my photographer friend, Glen, was able to make it over to do a photo shoot of my little monkey. We had been wanting to have him back for another session after the fabulous work he did just after she was born. Luckily, with Mommy dancing and singing like a lunatic, Brea managed to crack a smile or two and with some of my roses in bloom in the garden, we even managed a few great outdoor shots. I can't wait to see the pictures to share them with you all.
Then, because we had a viewing and an open house we had to leave our humble abode to pursue other activities.
We met up for dim-sum with Po-po before making it out to see Brea's Uncle Ambrose who was taking part in the Canadian Cancer Society's Relay for Life, we wanted to make sure to stop by and do a lap with him. Brea has been doing a lot of walking (with help) lately and was keen to join in. Taking steps while holding onto Craig and I, she managed 1/4 of the track at Percy Perry Stadium! She's going to be off on her own in no time. Craig took a picture on his phone but I haven't figured out how to get it off his phone and onto the computer - if anyone knows, please let me know!
Then, it was off to home to close-up shop and get changed for a wedding reception. A co-worker of Craig's was celebrating her new marriage and new home. It was a beautiful house and a lovely get-together.
Needless to say, Brea was pretty tuckered out and has gone to bed early. What a busy day!

Wordless Wednesday - Hot Weather!
All this sun is reminding me of when I was in Turkey a few years ago... if only...
The view upon waking up on the Blue Cruise of the Mediterranean Sea.
Hugging a small fairy chimney in Cappadocia.
Lovely colours of the Spice Market.
