Back from sunny Penticton!

Hi,
We are back in town after a great vacation!
It was so sunny and warm there. We went swimming once or twice a day in Okanagan Lake, which is warm enough. I got a bad case of swimmers itch after about 4 days of swimming. I kept going in though and would run out and go shower under the hose. Also I tried to stay out of the shallows. We got a video of Finn in his little paddle 'airplane'. I'll try and post it somewhere.
I'll probably put the pictures on Facebook. Too many online spots!
Josh and I got out one night to the Hillside Winery and had a 3 hour dinner on the patio. Afterwards we walked the hour home to Sandy&Paddy's house, along the old KVR railway which overlooks the lake and winds through vinyards. That was really a highlight of the vacation.
Lowlight was probably Finn's sleeping habits! he was going to bed at 10pm so now he is totally screwed up. He won't tolerate his crib at all anymore and wants both parents to lie down with him till he falls asleep (sometimes hour later). It is a pain!!! We are flummoxed on what to do.
Cry it out or continue the lieing down with him..
Hopefully it is a phase.
Another piece of news: Josh's sister is pregnant and getting married! She is having a whilwind wedding on Sept long weekend in the Bahama's. This may affect our trip to the coast :(

Thanks Sandy and Paddy for the great stay! I'm sure Finn will have memories of your wonderful garden and hospitality.
