Tess, her family, Yellowknife friends & Lita are doing a terrific job looking after Sebastian and The Terrific Trio while on their summer holidays in Canada. As you can see by some of the pictures below, the kids are having a ball. Observations from the hundreds of pics I’ve been sent daily:
- All of The Terrific Trio are gaining weight
- Carys is losing the "preemie" look that Jasper and Sela lost long ago
- Carys and Sela are becoming quite bold, willingly climbing onto things they previosuly may not have dared to (such as climbing up and sliding down the slide on their own)
- Jasper just wants to eat… what else is new?
- I’ve also heard that The Terrific Trio will now eat fish sticks and on their own, too! Self-feeding… we like that!
- Rumour has it there has been no vomitting since they arrived in Yellowknife.
- Since arriving in Yellowknife Sebastian has regularly seen float planes on the lake, been in the cab of a real truck ("twuck" as he would say), driven a motor boat, dragged in an inflatable behind a motor boat… and get this… ridden a Jet Ski!
- Sebastian’s speech – as assessed from phone conversations with him – has dramatically improved. Also increased is the degree to which he speaks with an English accent!

Hi, Charles.
