just checking in

Hey everyone!

I wanted to quickly drop-in to say that I haven't forgot about you guys! I have been a little MIA lately but this baby is kicking my butt these days. I was 39 weeks on Tuesday and ready for this little bean to make his appearance. We have had a few false alarms (he is a trickster already!) but I am hoping he will make his big appearance any moment now.

As we await the arrival of our new family member, we have been one busy family. Still preparing for little brother and hopefully all our parcels will arrive soon to finish off the boys room. Little Miss L. has finally got this whole school schedule figured out and started gymnastics this week. Baby D is loving all the one-on-one attention he has been getting during the day when his sissy is at school. He has been using this time to count to 10 all by himself, sing the ABC's, and loves to read a million books a day.

We have celebrated a few birthdays, anniversaries, and births in the last few weeks. Here is a sneak in photos over the past week.

Loving all the cuddles these two have been giving out lately. They can't wait to cuddle their little brother.

Little Miss L. ready for her first night of gymnastics. She absolutely loved it and rocked the balance beam!

Baby D's personality is growing each and every day. This child is always full of  the giggles.

I can't believe this little man turned one! We had a great afternoon celebrating Baby C's country fair birthday party. 

happy 5th anniversary

Today, I wanted to take a moment to thank the man who has been by my side for the last 7 years. Today marks our 5th wedding anniversary and it still feels like we just tied the knot a few days ago. We have been so fortunate to welcome two beautiful children into this world and hoping our third will join us soon. We have laughed, we have shouted (Ok, that's all me,) we have seen amazing places, we learn about each other each and every day, we have seen our first born head off to school and this is only the beginning. I can't wait to grow old with you and to see what this crazy world has in store for us in the coming years.

Happy Anniversary my love,

Your HAW

maternity photos with baby #3

I can't believe I have hit the 38 weeks mark today. It won't be long now before baby boy will join our family. I am excited and nervous all rolled into one. I wanted to share a few of my maternity photos with all of you before the little guy arrives. A great big thank you to my dear friend Megan who helped us capture these photos. It definitely didn't go smoothly as the two kiddos did not want to co-operate. The weather was sunny one minute and then pouring rain the next but we still managed to get a few shots that we will cherish forever.
