My partner Grant sent me this photo last week- our first official jobsign. For posterity.

Hockey day in Boucherville
Sunday morning Mary Ann and Yves invited us out to Boucherville for a skate on their outdoor rink. We made a mandatory stop at IKEA for cookies and slippers then off to their house. After prying LL away from the trains LL eventually discovered his passion for hockey. After our skate Mary Ann fixed up a nice lunch before we headed home. Thanks again for a fun Sunday morning. When we got home I decided it was time to test the ankle and play road hockey for the first time this season. (The other first time doesn't count cuz I couldn't run and ended up playing goalie. I put the "goals" in goalie.)

Asleep at the wheel
So while my auto-immune system was busy fighting the healthy parts of my body, it managed to let this gastoenteritis (sp?) have its way with me. Actually, Ann was the first to pick it up within 24 hours of being back in Montreal, I inherited it a few days later. Needless to say, we don't have enough toilets in this house and even if we did we wouldn't have know which end to stick on the toilet. At least LL did not pick it up. All in all 2007 has so far been a gem.

mom- sled
We've just returned from another Xmas in Alberta. We spent half the time in Canmore and half in Medicine Hat. This year was filled with Thomas the train everything. Thanks to everyone for the gifts for LL. The trip was fun and Ann and I managed to do some X-country skiing at the Nordic Centre- I nearly died but managed not to wake up in the middle of the night with any cramps. Also snuck out for a movie in MH (Casino Royale) which is the traditional treat for Ann and I when we go to the Hat. Unfortunately we didn't get to see some of our friends in Calgary since we only made a brief visit to Cowtown so that I could see a doctor...more on that later...
yeye sled
This reminds me of my dad taking me to Assiniboine Park for toboganning.... I seem to remember those runs being 30 feet up...though I wonder if it just seemed bigger...
canmore
We arrived on the 24th in Canmore and were joined by J, popo and gonggong for a few days before heading to MH.
alopecia ariata
So what we thought was Ann's butchering of my haircut has now been diagnosed by Dr. Mah-Poy, among others, as alopecia ariata...some kind of auto-immune disfunction. Apparently, next time you see me I may have lost all my body hair. Dr. MP was kind enough to see me after returning from their holidays and poke my head 40 times with a needle all the while discussing raspberries coulis with Ann. My only contribution to the discussion was "ouch, ouch, ouch, ouch, ouch, ouch..." Hopefully if all goes well some hair will grow back although it may well be white.
mom- workhorse
Took LL to one of the greens near my parents house for some toboganning since there is yet no snow in Montreal.
before
Ann and I went into Calgary for one day to visit the Mah-Poys, leaving LL with the grandparents. The grandparents promptly put LL onto a sled face first and pushed him down the slopes.
after
the three of us went down and Ann dropped her boot into the snow, giving all of us a healthy facewash with LL taking the brunt of it.
