The weather is starting to get a little colder now and we are beginning to wonder how to dress our little "furnace". We made a shopping trip to MEC to get a snow suit for Kian. We also made the mistake of walking into Gap Kids and seeing all the incredibly cute things in there. I think they prey on people like us!
Kian seems to be growing like a weed lately. He had his three month growth spurt this past week which meant very little sleep for mom for the past five days. Last night was the first night he slept better and we all appear to be better rested. He is getting to be much more animated and talkative now. He is able to pull himself up to standing from lying down (with som assistance) already and laughing up a storm when you bounce him on the bed. We also figured out that the only song that will almost instantly calm him down is 'Itsy Bitsy Spider'. I will not be singing that for 9 hours back down to Toronto! I still prefer the train. Kian was in the tub with me this week and he really enjoyed swimming around. I think we will try to get to the community pool and try out his skills there next. Maybe we have the next Thorpe in the making!
Mark and I had a nice treat this morning. Kian wet his first bed (ours)! He usually wears cloth diapers during the day and Pampers at night. Well, last night we decided to be adventurous and try cloth overnight. It worked for the 2 am and 4:30 changes but 6am was just a little to lazy and tired and we found out why Pampers might be a better idea! That diaper change included changing our bed. With a new diaper on Kian decided that he needed to poop, changing that diaper led to Kian pooping again. The third diaper barely got on before he peed in it, and the fourth also received some pee. That means 5 diapers and three outfits were used in the span of 15 minutes. Miraculously we survived without getting peed on ourselves!
We have to say a big thank you to Ali Jean-Guy and Chantal for their hospitality and especially to Ali Jean-Guy for his toys and Jolly Jumper! They are very much appreciated.

I think this post should have been called "The Stories of i-pee!" Wow, little Kian did that much business in the span of 15 minutes, now that's impressive.
I can't wait to hear Kian laugh! We're really looking forward to some hugs from him during the Holidays.
As for Itsy Bitsy Spider, hmmm, maybe we should all be on the lookout for a baby-size ipod for Kian so we can put that song on a continuous loop for his travel.
Can't wait to see you all at Christmas! Miss you guys tons.
Love Guy and Jacquie xoxo (and Sadie too)
