We're just about to embark on the next chapter of our lives, so I thought I would send out a little update before we get super busy for the next few weeks...

Time continues to fly...Jenna is now 4 months old and becoming a little person :) She still has a very easy going personality, which is great given how busy our lives have been over the last couple of months. She rarely complains, and willingly gives smiles...especially to her siblings :) And the best part of all is that she remains a fantastic sleeper at night! It's amazing how much easier life is when mom gets a good nights rest :)

We've just finished celebrating Keira's 3rd birthday! I was just reminicing with Kevin the other night stating what a difference a year makes...Last year for her birthday Keira got blocks, and a cash register...This year she got a purse and a full princess outfit. She's definitely our little princess! Anything pink is perfect, and anything that has one of the Disney Princess' on it, is better than perfect...

As for Josh, he's just about to start JK!!! It's hard to imagine, that the day is finally here!! Let's hope that he enjoys "big boy school" as much as he enjoyed preschool....Won't it be cute...Daddy and Josh heading out to school together in the morning ;)

Take a look at the videos we've taken in recent days at the pool...Josh has just become an incredible swimmer...him and Kevin now go down to the bottom of the pool to retrieve pool toys that have sunk. It's crazy what a few days can change.

Just an update with some pictures and videos. Enjoy!

Videos are to the right.....

Jenna is now 9 weeks old! My how time flies...Especially being as busy as we have been!

Jenna is a super baby, one that we count our lucky star about every day! She has been sleeping through the night for at least the past month (giving me a 5-8 hour stretch at night 99% of the time), and has a very laid back personality to boot. Which is nice since she has a brother who is overly loving at times :)

The kids continue to adjust well to the new family dymanics and most days it is hard to remember what our life was like before Jenna was born.

In case the grapevine has not reached everyone, the biggest news is that Kevin has been accepted to the University of Ottawa medical school for September. We have just sold our house here in Whitby (very fast actually- in 3 days!!), and we think that we have found a place that we like in Ottawa...

Onto the next chapter in our lives :)

Enjoy the long over due pictures............

Jenna is now 15 days old, and still a pretty easy going baby!  Took her to get weighed yesterday and she's now 9lb 7.5oz!  That means that she's gained 11oz since birth - what a little piggy :)  The older two are still doing really well with Jenna and continue to want to hold her ALL the time!  

Keira is also on day 11 with no soother (the dentist told her no more soothers and she hasn't asked for it since)!   She's definitely our big girl now :)

Enjoy the pictures.....

Welcome Jenna Katherine Graham!

Here are some pictures of the latest edition to our family.  Everything is still going really well, and Josh and Keira remain excited to see her (for the most part) - unless it interferes with playing hockey or doing puzzles....

I can't believe that it's been 6 months since I last posted!  What a delinquent blogger :)  Obivously lots has happened since I've last posted...but for my poor placenta brain's sake, I'll just focus on the last couple months and let the pictures tell the rest of our story.

Keira is now fully potty trained!  It really was amazing how easy it was this time - must be because girls are smarter than boys ;)

Keira has also have a pretty rough last couple of months.  Firstly she had scarlet fever twice, then came down with shingles about a month after.  Poor little monkey.  She's definitely a trooper though - and thankfully loves the taste of medicine so that was never an issue :)  And for all those that are wondering, yes she was vaccinated against chicken pox at 15 months....

All is well with her now, so our fingers are crossed that it continues that way.

Josh has turned into what we call "The New Josh".  There is now very rarely a meal that he won't just sit up at the table and eat :)  For those that don't know, Josh basically detested anything to do with eating a meal from the time that he was 6  months old until just recently.  This was a 3+ year struggle that we're glad seems to finally be behind us!

Josh also just had his 4th birthday.  We took him to Chuck E Cheese, where both he & Keira had a blast with Uncle Matt/Lindsay/Nana/Papa Paddy/Kev and of course myself :)  I'm actually not sure who had more fun -Josh or Matt -!

Finally, we're just days away from meeting baby #3!  We will keep you all posted when the main event happens.

Enjoy the photos
