Caleb's Story

We are very happy to announce that all is well with our new addition. I was schedualed to be induced for 3 days straight, and was turned away because of a c-section booking (Wed), short staff (Thurs), and no back up surgeons available when light contractions started naturally at noon on Friday.

By 7 o'oclock, baby wanted out, and after a few tries, doctor decided we needed to be flown out as precaution as baby was bigger than expected. While Air Abulance was on their way and he explained what would be happening, Caleb came into this world. He must have wanted to be born in our home town... Then we all noticed how big he was, and after being weighed, we were amazed that he was such a big boy, and Mom mangaged quite fine. Staff thought he'd broken a record in this hospital, for biggest baby, but not quite.

Mommy packed New Born clothes and diapers, and he went straight into 3 month clothes and size one diapers, and had a Very Big Appetite (much like his Daddy). We are all doing fine and trying to adjust to having a baby around the house again. We can't stop admiring him!!!! He is a VERY content baby and is fitting perfectly with all the commotion and noise. Meagan is a proud big sister and will be a great playmate...

Baby has ARRIVED!!!!!!

Baby's arrival soon!

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!!
