Nanna and Pappy went for a walk with the kids when we went to Hubbards Beach. They haven't had much of a summer in Nova Scotia either and the beach was packed!
Justin didn't like the ocean much either because of the loud noise of the waves and prefered to sit and play in the sand.
We went to visit Sharon at the cottage one night. It was another beautiful day so we were able to go swimming in the lake. Justin actually enjoyed it this time! Here he was spending a special moment with Chloe and Auntie.
Justin was much happier when Pappy was pushing him in the swing!
Nope, it's not going to work Pappy!
The weather was beautiful all week and we got to the water many times. On Sunday, we went to Kearney Lake (where we sepnt a lot of time as kids). Justin usually loves the water but wasn't so enthusiastic about the lake when Pappy took him in.
Here's a cute picture of Justin and his great grand-father.
Oh yes, Ka and I had the brilliant idea of going to Nova Scotia ( a 12 hour trip) with Nanna and Pappy with all 3 kids in one car! Sometimes, I wonder about the things we decide to do! We survived. The kids were actually awesome in the car and didn't say a word. Once we got there, things went downhill. Our kids were out of their element and not always on their best behavior!
I understood that routine is really, really, really important! Justin cried more than I've ever heard him cry and Jayden and Chloe wouldn't sleep so we had our hands full! It's a good thing we had Nanna and Pappy to help us out with kids when they were around!
After our hike, we decided to go for an ice cream. Justin kept coming back for more!
Here he is having his lunch.
We had our picnic close to the falls and Justin wanted to go in the water right away. 
Here we are ready to go.

Here is a cute picture of the kids playing together after the gifts and cake. 
Justin really enjoyed his cake. He ate every last bit and there was some everywhere!
Uncle Yannick and Chloe were making music with the drumsticks. 
Everyone helped Justin open his gifts, even Jayden!
Justin and Auntie.

Justin was running after the balloons when Daddy was blowing them up. 
Just a few cute pictures.
Happy Birthday Justin! Justin turns 1 today! Already. We will be having a little party for him tomorrow when Nana, Pappy and the rest of them come up. I will post some pictures then.
Grandpapa having a little fun with Justin. 
Justin wouldn't go down for his afternoon nap again today but around 4 o'clock, he couldn't stay awake any longer. We went for a walk and he fell asleep. Anyone who knows Justin knows that never happens!
Justin spent half the afternoon analyzing the tractor. He used to be afraid of it but now, he seems very intrigued by it. 
It always amazed me that Karine's kids could fall asleep in their highchairs. Tonight, Justin fell asleep in between bites. He went to daycare this morning and wouldn't go down for his nap this afternoon so he hadn't slept since 8:00 am. He tried to eat his supper as long as he could and then gave up. It was hilarious!
