Hello folks!
This shoud be the week that our little addition to the family will arrive. We've got the house ready for the new baby ( bassinette, blankets, bouncy chair, etc) and we're getting excited. As we've done this before, we're not nervous. We just hope things go well and that baby is HEALTHY! Our first due date is passed (March 1st) and the second (March 11th) is approaching fast. Baby is still very active in my tummy, and just itching to get out... ( I think).
Meagan was 8 3 oz, and labour was about 3-4 hours. I just pray that Grant will be home and not working somewheres up North when everything starts! I keep hearing the second time around is even faster!! I guess we'll see! And of course we'll keep you posted!
We look forward to seeing Meagan with her new sibling for the first time. She must think that Baby in Mommy's tummy will be there forever... I'm sure that she'll be a great help.
We spent a day doing a Prenatal course as a Refresher for things like the signs of labour, stages of pregnancy, pain relief, etc. It is also exciting for us to have friends having babies every month after us until September! It will make things very interesting when we have get togethers!!
Also, as a note. I am trying to sell my Jeep Liberty as we are getting a Van to fit us and our stuff... It's a great vehicle, and I'd like it to go to a good home! :) If interested:

As this may be the last time I write as a Mother of 1, with a full night's sleep, I look forward to seeing you post a few messages once in a while, as everything written will be in Baby's Journal. Please let us know if you have a change in email address. Meagan's old website is being swtiched to this "blog" as it's much easier to update and load pictures.
Keep us in your thoughts and prayers!!

Help!!! Can you see that mischevious grin? We have a stubborn little girl who knows she has Mommy and Daddy wrapped around her little finger (mostly her Daddy)... We've been "going" on the potty for a while now, but it's not her time yet. It does give us some "quality" time, as she sits and chats with us. She loves to pick out a sticker to put on the chart, after she goes. Can't believe my little girl is already so grown up!!
Just thought I'd post this cute picture of Caleb and Mommy's friend Kim. She came for a visit and was nice enough to let him sleep on her most of the evening... What a treat! He'll expect that the next time too! :)
This little darling loves to sleep on someones lap, or shoulder, or anything besides his little bassinette. It's so much cozier on someone else... He is a real cuddle bug, and he sure lets us know when he's not happy. It's usually that he's hungry (again...) or that he just wants to be held. (a little hard when Mommy and Daddy are trying to make supper, or do dishes, or ...) Life is going well in our home. I have so much more energy than I did when I was pregnant. I can actually clean up dises after supper without having to take a nap! And being able to sleep on my belly, and bend over is such a treat!! Just thought I'd post a picture of our darling sleeping. I think he'll be a snorer, like his Daddy... :)
Meagan is slowly adjusting to having a little brother around. It was great to have Grant and my Mom aound the first couple days, so we could give her lots of attention and make her feel special. We've started "putting her to work" right away, helping bring diapers, bottles, and Mommy water when she breast feeds. (As you can imagine, he is a BIG eater and it seems we're feeding him all day long :) )
