Ok now where was I???? Oh ya.....

Took a while to charge my battery huh????


We have had lots going on around here and Clarissa is becoming a bigger girl each day! The big news...........she is now diaper-free!!!!!! (well except during the night, and even then she wakes up and tells us that she has to go....most of the time) This all happened in one day.....I don't remember the name of it, but there is this book that Carolyn came across somewhere (hey...give me a break...I'm a Dad....I can't remember this stuff.....), anyhow whatever this book says it resulted in no more diapers all in one day. Magic!!!!

Oh the other thing is that our backyard deck is now compete....


and we are loving it. It has made a huge difference back there. The pitcher of sangria that I made us tasted different somehow...



Clarissa is real impressed by it also....



We had a couple of visitors in the backyard the other day...




We took Clarissa to see the Changing of the Guard on Parliament Hill

Father's Day, a couple of stinky visitors, and "Houston we have no diapers!!!"

First things first.....


Soooooo what's been goin' on???? Well, we had our 5th annual charity golf tourmanent a couple of weeks ago which is partly why I haven't posted in a while. The last couple of weeks leading up to the tournament is always pretty crazy for me. The good news is that we had another great tournament with 140 players, and we raised $19,000. Then I headed to Toronto for a conference and to do some work. This all resulted in me spending my second Father's Day sitting in on presentations about planning disaster and business continuity exercises. Then dinner alone and the evening alone watching tv in a hotel room missing my girls.

Huh???? You are not at all interesting in hearing about me??? You want to hear about Clarissa??? You want pictures of Clarissa??? Oh....ok...well she had her first hamburger. Errrr....ok, technically it was a hamburger bun toasted on the bbq with a slice of tomato on it, but that is just details isn't it???


Clarissa has been taking some pictures of her toys with Daddy's camera



She has new favourite Princess pjs.
