BBQ while the sun shines.

Once again, the view from our front window with summer in full swing.
For some reason my son doesn't want to learn to ride a bike, the height of his enthusiasm is to push his bike around town. The other day he stopped a girl riding her bike and told her she was doing it wrong, at which point he showed her how to effectively push her bike.
Only thing better than pushing your bike is to pose in front of a truck with your bike. This is the company truck that we use for cargo. Christopher is over 4 feet tall, so judge for yourself what type of truck you need to have all season access.
Ready for some real off road pushing?
Those training wheels have a habit of biting you in the butt when your not looking, as Christopher and the bike both take a off road adventure.

Hello Everyone,
Nothing much happening around town that I've seen. So far we've had a really bad summer, rain and fog almost everyday. Today we reached double digits for the first time in quite awhile so we had a BBQ.

The sound of your own voice

Hello everyone,
Last night I was listening to Christopher in his room getting ready for bed. It occurred to me this kid is never quiet anymore, It doesn't matter what he's saying/singing, English, Inuktituk or anything he wants to make up. He just sings, talks or just makes sounds to hear himself all the time. There is never a quiet moment with this charming lad around. Its amazing, I have used the phrase "likes the sound of their own voice" but he redefines the phrase.

Life lessons can be Painful

Hello Everyone,
Important lessons in life can also be the most painful. Christopher learned a important lesson today. It was also a painful one as you can see. There is a reason that the "Eskimo kiss" was created, it was created by some intelligent Inuk who realized the danger of kissing with wet lips in the cold. For Christopher this means kissing our truck at -48 has bad implications. which lead to some questions later in the day of a humorous nature "when is it OK to kiss the truck", "Is it OK to Inuk kiss the truck", "Is it OK to kiss the warm parts of the truck". we don't know why he's obsessed with kissing the truck, but he really likes trucks. Anyways pictured above are the horrible results of kissing the truck in the cold weather. Yes, those are his lips still stuck to the truck. He extricated himself from the truck, thank the lord, as neither myself or his mother would have liked to help him through that ordeal.
