A Busy Spring....

The family. We were a strange little band of characters trudging through life sharing diseases and toothpaste, coveting one another's desserts, hiding shampoo, borrowing money, locking each other out of our rooms, inflicting pain and kissing to heal it in the same instant, loving, laughing, defending, and trying to figure out the common thread that bound us all together. ~Erma Bombeck

This has certainly been an exciting and action-packed spring for us in Heatheringtonville. First the arrival of Ben, followed quickly by a visit from Nana. It was so wonderful to have the house full of family...watching Ben learn about the world, become more aware of his surroundings and become a little person is just amazing - even third time around, it's a true miracle. And having my mom over from Canada to share it with was wonderful.

A boy's love...

Jack - you a little cold playing in the sprinkler? Check out that expression - priceless!

Nana lugged over Emma's amazing new BMW bike (a gift from her Uncle Jason, Aunt Patsy and Daniel and Ashley) She is now such a BIG GIRL in her proper two wheel bike! And the envy of the neighbourhood!

There is nothing quite like a newborn in your arms

I could stare at him all day long....please don't grow to quickly Ben...
