Passport

Maya's Canadian Passport arrived this week! We're now free to flee the country with her. Not that we will... but we could!

Re-infection

Well, the course of anti-biotics that I took last week to 'cure' my infected throat, sinus and ears didn't work. 4 days after the meds finished, I started feeling symptoms again so it was back to the doctor. Sure enough, he confirmed that the infections are back so I have to take another, and longer, course of anti-biotics this time. The good news is that I don't have to completely stop my training this time. Swims will be limited but my running & cycling can continue as I see fit. Yeah!

Triathlon Training

My Triathlon training was going well... right up to last week. I wasn't feeling well for several days and so, finally, went to see the doctor. It turns out that my 'summer cold' was a throat, sinus & ear infection! I'm on antibiotics and training has been put on hold but only for this week. I'll be back at it next week...

Canada Day

Maya's first Canada Day as a citizen was mellow. Due to multiple reasons, our plans for the day fell-through so we just took things easy. With the weather being as drizzly and cool as it was, it didn't really motivate us to do much anyway. Erinn & Ryan has slept over the night before. When they awoke, they were craving Dim Sum which suited us just fine so we packed up the whole family and headed out. After Dim Sum and Maya's nap, we walked over to the Clark Park kids party to see what was going on over there. The games and bouncy things were packed with older kids so we didn't bother to put Maya inside - she'd be crushed. She did want a pony ride but, once on it, wasn't thrilled and promptly wanted back off. She was content with swinging on the swing she always swings on. Home for a BBQ, bath and bed then mom & dad sat outside with some wine. Mellow, but nice...
