May = Tulip Fest Princess

May is always an exciting month for the Ottawa Constant family. With it comes the Tulip Fest, Mother's Day, our Anniversary, the National Capital Race Weekend and Meg's birthday.

Isabelle has gotten quite used to the crowds of people in what she considers her backyard, but seems quite happy to share it all, especially since it includes buskers, trampoline demonstrations, art exhibits, food stands and balloon makers! She's out and about amongst the flowers several times a day - we're so lucky with a non existent back yard to be able to get out and have such a great space for kicking around the soccer ball, touring around on the new trike etc.

Isabelle and her special "baby" tulip - red in a sea of yellow.



The balloon weiner dog, complete with leash!



What do you mean these are too big!?



See! They fit!



Balloons, balloons and more balloons!



Weekend visit to the Fair - Riding the "Berry Whirl"



Checking out the fun house with Daddy!



Isabelle, thinking she has been left alone in the kitchen, manages to open the snack cupboard and takes out Mom's bag of popcorn. When she knows she's been spied, she becomes VERY proprietary about the fact that it is now HER snack bag. Can you tell she has told us in no uncertain terms to STAY AWAY so as to let her enjoy it!?

All alone!?



I've been spied - don't come too close!!!!



No one is approaching; it's back to business!
