We were very excited to travel all of the way to Oakville Canada to visit the Weinsteins. Although our flight to Buffalo didn't leave until after 9:00pm, Teddy was a trooper. He enjoyed watching the planes take off while we waited to board our plane:
And he did fabulous on the flight. He was asleep about 45 minutes into the flight.
However, it was after 1am when we finally went to bed in our hotel. The next morning we were a little slow moving. But we were ready to go see Niagara Falls.
OK...so maybe we were still a little tired. Here is Teddy as we parked to see Niagara Falls:
He perked up though when we showed him the big waterfalls:
The giant bear was pretty cool too:
We had fun at Niagara Falls, but we were really happy to get to the Weinstein's house. The dogs were happy to see us too:
Teddy immediately jumped right in to the girls' playroom. He had a blast!
Teddy and Harper enjoyed some reading time:
Meal time was also lots of fun:
But I think his favorite was riding Finley's bike. A princess one, of course:
(And yes, he is in his Elmo PJ's.) All of the children loved playing outside. Harper found a special treat in the garden:
Here we are at Lake Ontario. It was beautiful.
After we walked around the lake, Teddy had his first experience going out for sushi.
He liked using the chopsticks.... but mostly as drum sticks.
(Notice the pretty fairy wings in the next picture).
On Saturday we went to Burlington, Canada for the largest rib fest in Ontario. Teddy gives Harper a hug at the festival:
His favorite part.... the chocolate chip cookie!
Teddy had tons of fun hanging out with his cousins. He worked on his hula hooping...
driving...
and even cornhole.
But one of his favorite things to do is listen to stories. Aunt Sammie read to all the children:
We found out one thing that is NOT Teddy's favorite though....
He was not a fan of the cousin bubble bath!
We also went to a splash park one afternoon. I am not sure who had the most fun:
Finley helped us get ready to celebrate Shae's birthday. She helped plan the party and helped make the yummy cup cakes.
Happy Birthday Shae!
(Finley also helped pick out Uncle Shae's hat).
Everyone helped eat the cupcakes.
Teddy and Finley snuggled under a blanket as they read some books:
More books!
Monday was Shae's birthday, so we started the day off with presents!
Then we all took a train into Toronto.
Teddy LOVED the train ride.
After the train, we took a ferry to an island. Teddy loved that as well.
3 generations of Hoscheks (otherwise known as copy... copy...)
Everyone had fun at the playground:
We went out to lunch to a sports bar that has a HUGE TV. It also has HUGE birthday desserts:
On our way home on the train:
This time Teddy was a little less enthusiastic about the train...
He was little tired:
Good thing he rested up though, because that night we had a DANCE PARTY! And even Grandpa Steve was dancing....
Like father, like daughter:
Happy Birthday Shae!
As always, the Weinsteins were gracious hosts and we had lots of fun hanging out with family. Before we knew it, it was time to go home. We decided to buy a seat for Teddy for the plane ride home, since it was in the middle of the day.
He seemed to enjoy it...
until he fell asleep...
Good thing we bought that seat....
...for Elmo!
