Swimming, snowmen and a movie

John had to work today so I had the entire day with Kendra! We started off by going to the Leisure centre for a swim. Kendra is getting the hang of swimming more. After I coaxed her into the bigger pool, she took off on a floating mat -- kicking her feet and making it go. She had so much fun there. After a couple of hours in the pool we got out and had hot dogs by the rink. It was nice that it was just the two of us.

On the way home, we stopped by Co-op and picked up some ice-cream, cones and watermelon. Strange food for a snowy day. But Kendra had two ice-cream cones today. We stayed in for a bit and watched Mermadia (Barbie) on the DVD. I happened to doze off a bit while she watched while vegging out on top of me.

Then it was out to the yard where we built 2 snowmen. Even the neighbours were getting excited about them. The snow was so wet that my gloves were instantly soaked. The snowmen turned out great. They were her first snowmen as usually the snow here is too dry to make snowmen out of AND it's too cold. But today was warm and the snow was damp.

Soon after that, John got home from work and we headed out. We had dinner at the mall and then watched 'Horton Hears a Who' at the Galaxy. This was the first time Kendra has seen a movie in a theatre. We ate more junk. Kendra munched out on popcorn and cotton candy! A couple of parts were a bit scary for her, but she seemed to have fun.

Then we went to Superstore and looked around. By the time we got home at about 9:30, Kendra was beat. I hope she sleeps in tomorrow. It was a long day, but a fun day... with a few 'firsts'!
