Kellie's Diary Entries

Diary Navigation:

February 19, 2003

I thought I'd pen a short note on Brennen's favorite things. I'm actually in the process of moving my office (I've posted before about accepting a position in a Router organization within Nortel ) and its not as thrilling as I thought it would be (the packing of my office not the job) so I'm taking a break to capture some of Brennen's favorite things.

TV shows:
Blues Clues (he LOVEs Joe, Steve and Blue) and can sing the Birthday Song (Wooo Hooo, we'll have a great time Hooo HOOO) and loves to quite regularly.
Dora (Dooda as he pronounces it) is another big favorite, if I am in the other room I can hear him yelling "Map" and "Swiper no Swiping" to the tv.
Scooby Doo he's a lover of everything Scooby! I swear some of the cartoons *I* saw as a kid!
Zaboomafoo he loves the animals and the Kraft brothers.

Clothing:
His *Ockey Shirt* Ottawa Senators Hockey Shirt is a favorite along with anything of McKinleys, a hand me down gets a lot of love from Brennen. His sisters shoes, currently he has taken a liking to a pair of flowered Gap slip on canvas shoe M got last summer. :)

Food:
Manimal Tackers, Animal Crackers he eats them by the tons.
Apples he loves green granny smith apples
Meat loaf actually any meat at all is a favorite for him.
Corn Pops dry or with milk is his main morning snack
ice ceam, ice cream preferably chocolate, and he likes to stir it up until it looks a bit like a frosty.
Mashed totatoes Mashed potatoes are a favorite with no gravy or anything
Brocolli or beans are big on his list also.

Toys:
We bought Brennen an electric train set (FP) for christmas and thats a favorite of his. Another great purchase which he loves, is the leapfrog fridge magnets in the alphabet. Brennen likes to colour and paint with Mckinley. His favorite toys are his baseball bat, basketball net (set up in our hallway) dress up box (its McKinley's but he loves it also) anykind of ball, and putting on shows for John and I are something both McKinley and he love to do.

Brennen loves to talk on the phone when people call and loves to pretend he's McKinley's dog (strange I know) and she walks him around with a bathrobe tie around his waist. He also likes to play *CREEPER* he runs around yelling *CREEEEPER* and pretends he's a bad guy.

I think thats a good synopsis of B's favorite things.!~

Our plans for the weekend are pretty standard, Ottawa has our Winterlude Carnival this weekend (and every weekend in February) its called Winterlude, we'll be going downtown this weekend to check out the ice and snow sculptures and skate on the canal. McKinley has a birthday party and I'll be helping the mom with it so Brennen and John will have some time to themselves. Tonight is our Family Fun Night silent auction for M's school to help fund the School Yard Improvement Committee which I'm a member. On Friday J and I plan on taking the kids for dinner at *the big red tomatoe* as M calls it. Its actually Eastside Marios, we thought we'd surprise them as we don't go out for dinner hardly at all anymore since J has been home.

Cheers until next time!
