Granville Island

Thanks Sabrina, Lindsay and Nicole for already leaving comments! I thought I would write e little bit about what a fun day we had on Saturday. My mom was here for the long weekend so the four of us went to Granville Island for the better part of the day. We arrived around 9:30am which was great because things weren't very crowded yet. We decided to look around the Market while we were still able to maneuver as it always gets busiest there. We did deal with the crowds at lunch as we all had something different. I had pizza and Jonathan had a burger, David ate Daddy's fries along with an apple sauce and Nana being the only adventurous one of the bunch had sushi and soy beans.
We shopped around and Nana got David s wooden puzzle. We went for the easier looking puzzle since he has never done a puzzle before but he caught on right away so I guess we could have gone a little pit more advanced but he enjoys it anyway. We also stoped at the for some Granville beer and local wine as well as pasta from the market before we left (sun dried tomato & asparagus as well as butternut squash... which we enjoyed for dinner last night).


After all that looking around David needed to stretch his legs so we went to the playground. It was unfortunate that we didn't bring his bathing suit as there is a really nice water park but he had fun staying dry anyway. He was a little bit nervous about the wobbly bridge as he has never seen one before but he made it across on his own. I think I can credit his at home climbing to our adventures at the playground so we are currently trying to teach him that certain things are meant to be climbed while others are not.


Ah, my favorite part of the day. Sitting on the grass after lunch relaxing while David played on the grass and picked flowers. I think I took a few brilliant shots (m favorite one is directly below with him smelling the dandy-lion.


After Granville we went straight to Great-Grandpa and Great_Grandma's house where David got to try his puzzle out and we had a lovely waffle dinner. The evening got cut short after David soiled his final diaper and had to be taken home in a makeshift cloth diaper. Thankfully our car seat survived the trip home. It was time for David to have a shower and go to bed anyway. We had such a nice day. I think next time we have a nice day and Jonathan has the day off we might venture to White Rock.
