Tiny Tots - Holiday Hooray

This morning I took Isaac to a music performance.  It's an educational music series for kids 0-5 to introduce children to musical instruments and singing.  It was a lot of fun.  We got to hear a trumpet, trombone, tuba, bells, a base drum, wooden blocks, and another instrument (which I missed hearing the name of).  They performed holiday sing-along songs and various bits from the Nutcracker.

I asked Isaac which instrument he liked and he said "The big one." :)

We stopped by the Library and I picked up a few children's books from the VPL Book Sale.  I got Isaac a small frog magnet from Bookmark, The Library Store (run by the Friends of the Vancouver Public Library).  The last time we went to the downtown library I picked up other magnets for Isaac, so Froggy will have friends on the fridge.

We stopped for some crepes before heading to the sky train.  Isaac had some bites of my ham and egg crepe, and bits of banana bread we packed for a snack.  I offered him an apple sauce crepe, but he didn't like it at all and refused to eat it after trying a bite.

Isaac napped on the way to the train station.  I picked up some seaweed, tofu and spinach then stopped by Value Village.  I picked up a few more books and a few duplo minifigures.  When we got home and checked the mail, I was happy to discover an envelope from Lego with our missing pieces from the Fire Brigade!

All-in-all we had a great day.

Cooking class pictures

Isaac has one more little chefs cooking class left.  It's been a great course and I love the instructor, but the commute to the class isn't fun.  I'm hoping to try to register for the course again over the summer.  I'm just catching up a little with uploading some of the pictures from the camera onto the computer.  Here are some of the other things Isaac has made in cooking class but I neglected to write about.
