O Canada!

Well it finally arrived. Mercy is officially a "Canadian Citizen". Hoorah for Mercy!!! She was a little excited too as you can see. Should we teach her the song???

O Canada!

Our home and native land!

True patriot love in all thy sons command.

With glowing hearts we see thee rise,

The True North strong and free!

From far and wide, O Canada

we stand on guard for thee.

God keep our land glorious and free!

O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.

O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.

We trust that Mercy will be at home here in Canada and enjoy the benefits that we have during her lifetime living here!!!

Snow Day!

We had a chance on New Year's Day to take Mercy out for her first taste of snow. And I mean literally. She lost her balance with her snow boots and heavy snow suit and ended up face down in the snow. I think she realized it is cold!!!! She tried to help Daddy shovel the driveway, too but the shovel was too big!!

I think she liked the overall experience and we can't wait to take her out on a tobaggon or sled some day in the future!

Domestic Diva!

Mercy has become quite the little domestic helper these days. She watches mummy and tries to imitate what she does. Mercy helps me with laundry putting in and taking out and even tries to work at the oven. And if I ever need anything from the tupperware drawer or fridge!!!!!!

And she can sure sweep up!

Every day she seems to want to try whatever we do. Even if she can't for her age!
