Grey, Grey or Grey?

Sorry about the lack of updates recently.  I lost my camera for a couple of days but found it today, so yay! 

So, what have we been up to...let's see.  On the weekend, grandma came to visit and we all went to a children's bookstore in our new neighbourhood called Mabel's Fables.  We wanted to buy a book for Juliet that we would read to her as part of her bedtime routine.  We have a nightly routine so that Juliet knows it's bedtime and it seems to be working.  The book we got is called "Ten Little Fingers and Ten Little Toes" and it's pretty cute.
Leo and Juliet at the bookstore.  Juliet looks pretty cute here.
On Sunday, Anjana and Bryce came over and we hung out, had dinner and also visited our new neighbourhood.  Seriously - we are becoming stalkers of our new house.  This was the second time on the weekend that we went by the house.

Bryce holds Juliet (she's wearing a cute Dr. Seuss onesie from her Aunt Paula).  For some reason, when Bryce first got here, Juliet was "making strange" with him and would cry.  But after a short time, she happily sat with him and gave him lots of smiles.  This was a great turn of events since Bryce has a baby arriving in less than 2 months and we don't want to scare him off of babies!

We bundled Juliet up for our walk through our new neighbourhood.  The mittens kind of overpower her, don't they?
Today, Juliet and I ran a few errands.  We visited the current owner of our house to ask random questions about the house and we also visited a couple of paint stores to look at paint chips.  I want to paint our bedroom grey and have discovered that grey is a difficult colour to choose because so many greys look like other colours - brown, green, or blue-y silver.  Juliet was helping me choose (and she also wants a say in what her own bedroom will be painted!).

"Hmmmm....I like this grey.  But not that grey."
In terms of milestones, today Juliet has started to get onto her knees a bit when doing tummy time.  Leo has apparently been trying to teach her how to crawl, so I guess this is a bit of progress on that front.
