A quiet start to 2009!

Our "little" girl finally arrived on January 3rd, 2009, 1:49am, weighing in at 9lbs 7oz.
Once she decided to come, there was no stopping her, and the labour was really quick. Let's just say that the midwife advised a home birth if we were to have another baby. She said we wouldn't make it to the hospital next time.


Home with Madelyn, just on time to celebrate Ewan's birthday (luckily we had one cake a day early, because he was sick by the time January 4th arrived).


Our sick little boy on his birthday. Happy Birthday Ewan!



Madelyn has been a good, quiet baby so far. This has helped, since Ewan has needed alot more attention since he got sick!

The weigh in...by day 4 Madelyn had regained her birthweight, and was up to 9lbs 8oz. After 6 days she was up to 9lbs 13 oz. And I thought Ewan was a big baby!

Ewan finally feeling better...giving Madelyn a kiss.



And this is just 10 days into January...New Year, new baby, and Ewan turning 2...what will the rest of the year be like?

Happy New Year!

Now that Christmas is over, Ewan is asking "where baby sister?" Hopefully he won't have much longer to wait. He also gets out toys and says "share with baby sister", then in the next breath he says "NO, MINE!" Good luck to you this year Ewan...Cletus II is on her way soon...

Merry Christmas 2008!

Merry Christmas everyone!

A couple of favourite toys...race track and a giant bubble maker!
