G, P & K visit and Keiths birthday fun!

Uncle Gary, Auntie Pam and cousin Keith came for a visit to meet their newest family member. Lots of snuggles and fun was had...
Oh Keith, you're so, so very patient!



This is a great picture!
Auntie sizin' up the líl man...later to be dubbed "no neck!" Meant with nothing but love and respect of course ha ha ha!

We have a little tradition in our little family...the kids get to pick the gifts! So I generally get the main gift and then the kids get to pick the "special gifts" to complete the ensemble! Again...Keith you are so, so very patient! The kids were so excited to give him their hand picked gifts...hilarious!

Hee hee hee...
A tad blurry but you can see Uncle Googee already trying to corrupt my son...
Proud Papa getting in on the action!

...and corrupt my daughter...
Auntie Pam opening the awesome treasures Keith got bah ha ha!

Our first day of school!

Well the big day arrived...I was a basket case of course. Not only was Jordan returning to school full time...Wallace was leaving too. First half days every other day...then full days every other day...then...sniff sniff...full days all together.
Very proud of my two big kids...so grown up!
They get to share a classroom this year as the French Immersion is a kindergarten/grade one mix. Actually very comforting for me to see them and know that they are there for each other. Likely sucks for the teacher as I totally know what they're like when they are together but ...hee hee!

Awwwwww!
Both the kids have tons of their friends in the same class so that's awesome!

Big Dude takes on Kindergarten!

I took Jordan going to kindergarten hard but man...Wallace now too. The tears were embarrassing...and didn't seem to stop for days. I know he's ready but that doesn't mean I am...
So handsome...wow!

I'm really happy that my kids get to be together in school. It makes me feel better to know that they will always be there for each other. Course they'll never get away with a single thing as one will rat the other out at the drop of a dime....but I still feel really good about it!
My handsome fella...I can't believe he's leaving me to go to school! Horrible fact of life, horrible!

Missy starts grade one!

So Jordan started grade one this year and we opted to enroll her in the French Immersion program.
She was rather bored last year so we're hoping this will be the challenge she needs!
I can not believe she is in grade one....happy but so, so sad.

So we enrolled Wallace in French as well and it turned out...they get to be in the same class.
They were pretty pumped for that...I pity the teacher ha ha ha!
My big girl...I'm so proud of you!

1 week post hospital doctor's visit

So we went to see the doc a week after being released and all was well. Our normal pediatrician was away on holidays but this doctor is amazing as well. Maddex gained weight and was given the thumbs up for being a perfectly healthy baby!
9 floors up...very cool!
She's got trouble written all over her...



Ha ha ha...so funny!



Gettin' used to things...

My crib...and mobile.

Swing.
Bouncer chair.

This is a newborn jacket...seriously, does any child fit into that hood? hee hee
All three of my children have had this spider toy. BUT...the best part is that it came from Kelly's best friends kids Chloe and Josh. They had it too, I just love that...a piece of history!



Soaking up the sun...
Ahhhhhh....vitamin D rocks!
My peeps...
Kay this blanket look HUGE in the picture but its actually not. He's just really tiny...

Just hangin' while mommy plays dress-up some more...
Saying goodbye to the preemie clothes...
Sniff, sniff...
Really scary how small he actually was...those little people sure are amazing hey!
This was an outfit Wallace fit when he was born, he wore it at the hospital.
My boys...
Well, he's not quite sure what to do on this fancy mat. This tummy time thing is entirely over rated! Looks like a great place to nap...
