Our friend is an amateur photographer...when he visited us last weekend, he took some really nice family pictures

(Maisie is about 10 weeks old here)

Photos from the past 8 weeks! Definitely not in chronological order, sorry...

 Spending time at the pumpkin farm

 Building our new shed

 Callum started preschool about 4 weeks ago. Here he is in his little school uniform

Callum planned his Halloween costume months ago - Bob the Builder, of course! Maisie was a skeleton for a while but the costume didn't make it til picture time, and she slept through trick-or-treating

 Callum is the best big brother! He's always cuddling and kissing Maisie, and trying to make her smile

 Rare pics of Maisie napping

 Big brother and his little buddy

 Maisie is smiling more and more, laughing and cooing. 

 This is actually the most recent pic (above)

Maisie loves to practice holding her head up and will do it over and over until she is completely pooped. Callum doesn't like to see her struggling and tries to help support her head  :-)

 Maisie...a few hours old!

Things are still a little hectic around here so I haven't been posting any photos of our little family - but here's one of the kids with Grandma and Grandpa! Maisie is about 5 weeks old here

Welcome, Maisie Isabella Rowan MacDonald

(There's a few extra pics of Callum because he took such sweet photos :-) 

...just pulled some more photos off of Grandpa's camera from a few months ago. There's newer pics in a post below

 Grandpa and Grandma's neighbour took Callum for a school bus ride around the block

Watering Grandpa's tomatoes

 Self portrait

Helping Daddy and Grandpa put a railing on our new deck

Checking out the chickens at Happy Rolph's

Walking the plank

 Turns out Grandpa and Callum have similar fashion sense...

Lemonade and Nutella - Callum was pretty giggly after this

In Port Colbourne last weekend...turns out there was only one ride suitable for Callum, so he rode it three times.

He even got to be the conductor and ring the bell
