In the spirit of the Olympics, a few of Fraser's closest peers came representing a culture of their background, and the games were on!
Representing CANADA: Nico!
Representing Scotland (simply because blue and white were the only colours other than pink that she owns!) : Hope!
Representing Finland: Desmond!
Annnnnd representing the Netherlands: Fraser!
(Side note: Fraser's little soccer jersey is actually FROM the Netherlands... thank you Nana & Papa!)
LET THE GAMES BEGIN!
Crawling race to the cheerios/baby mum mums...
Hope & Fraser tied for first...
(Another side note: Fraser started army crawling just in time for his 10-month birthday, and in the 3 weeks since, he has begun regular crawling, pulling himself to a stand, clapping, waving, signing "more", and making all sorts of noises. We can practically SEE the wheels in his head turning as he's taking everything in and learning sooo much.)
But I digress. Back to the olympics...
CHEERIO GRAB...
I'd say it was a four-way tie (although Fraser DID sort of hover above the stash and hoard handfuls)...
We had other activities on the list (diaper changing contest, first giggler when tickled, who imitated a clap first etc), but we got a bit of a late start and the babes (and mamas) were starting to get hangry. I guess that's what happens when you get a bunch of babies and mamas together... nothing quite goes as scheduled! ;)
The gold medals went to... EVERYONE!
After the medal ceremony, lunch was had by one and all. The mamas had a potluck lunch with foods from their backgrounds, and it was an astoundingly delicious spread if I do say so myself....
