Jackson loves to crunch his legs up every time he is being held... I think he looks like a little frog!

Love my little man!


Riley got to see Nene this morning, she's still getting used to the idea that the face on Skype is in our house... But she did enjoy all the gifts she got today! - She wore her PJs ALL day long!

Tonight Jackson got to meet his Nene! - She came from across the ocean for the summer and we are so excited to have her! (Can't wait for the rest of the family to follow in a couple weeks!)

Something significant happened today... Jackson enjoyed his first hockey game with his Dad, I'm sure many more days like this will come! :-)

May 18th, 2012


Riley has decided that whenever Jackson is in the swing it's her job to push him... - She is still unsure as to what to make of this new little body in our home.

May 17th, 2012 - Best day of the year so far!


My most precious son Jackson Levi was born this morning at 8:22, he weighs 8 lbs 9 oz and is 21 inches long. So thankful that he arrived healthy and in comparison to his Big Sister, very quickly! - Thank you Jesus!

I had a picture all set and ready to go for today, but something exciting happened just before midnight, my water broke! - Look at tomorrow's post for the more exciting picture! :-)

Today I was tired... First day since I passed my due date last week that I'm feeling discouraged, tired and just done... Hoping baby chooses to come soon, also hoping that tomorrow is a better day!

Spent the evening pumping up the pool... Isn't that how everyone prepares for labour??? :-) Hoping I get to put this to good use soon!

Planted lettuce with Riley today... Not the fun Mother-Daughter time I was hoping it would be, she liked scooping the dirt but as soon as we put that away she screamed and cried... O well, I got some cute pictures.

Spent the morning enjoying the sun on our extremely dirty deck! :-) - Riley had so much fun and enjoyed a black bath afterward! Hoping for some rain here soon so I can spray off my deck and get it a bit cleaner!

Watched the Amazing Race finale with a friend tonight. We tried her new Epicure steamer to make popcorn and it worked REALLY well. Maybe next time there will be a few less kernels though! :-)

Not too much went on today... Family PJ day after an exhausting day/evening last night. Then Chris made me chicken wings and we watched a movie and played a game, good way to relax.

Spent today making and icing TONS of cupcakes for our silent auction fundraiser tomorrow night! - Left them too close to the side of the counter though, I need to remember Riley is getting taller... I walked into the kitchen to see her thoroughly enjoying a cupcake in each hand, that little munchkin!

Mmmm, yummy... Frozen Yogurt in Airdrie with Rachel today! - This baby needs to come so I stop taking the van on Wednesdays for my midwife appointments, too tempting to just stop in after I pick Chris up! :-)
