It sounds cliche but time sure flies! We've been keeping busy as usual with work, play dates and a trip to Kelowna for Thanksgiving. These photos are from our Kelowna trip and include a photo where Auntie Andrea whipped a tattoo on Jonas before Mommy new what was going on! Hence the red leaf ( Canadian flag) tattoo in these pictures. We've tried to start some traditions which include going to the local pumpkin patch in Kelowna on Thanksgiving weekend.

He's also becoming quite a parrot, copying many words that he hears.

We're walking!

Bob Geldof gave an amazing speech that really makes my day to day complaints so minimal. There is so much more we should be doing for these children and its crazy
