Children say the darnest things......

Yesterday my niece and nephew came over to visit, and stay a while, I was told by my sister that they would be pretty hungry, since dinner had not happened yet, and what they had for lunch does not appear in our Canadian Food Guide, lol. Anyway, I made this big dinner with mashed potatoes, broccoli, corn, deer steaks and home made bread...I know, home made bread!!! COOL EH? Wyatt is awesome when it comes to my food, but lately I guess I wanted more praises, and I got a "That's Delicous Moni!!!!" "I can't believe you made all this Moni!" ...it was AWESOME!!! So for everyone out there, sometimes the best praises come from the smallest mouths! It is great to have them over....
Also...Ok, so it has been a LONG time, but honestly, who has time to post, when you can just have fun reading other blogs..LAME, I know!! My excuse..diaper changes!!!..well here are a few pictures of the tiny one, who is not so tiny anymore, she is growing so much, and so well!

This is a Picture of Maija taking a little nap, isn't she ADORABLE!!???

To all those people that have posted suggestions for different books to check out, THANK YOU!! I have really enjoyed the Orson Scott Card, and various others I have read about (special thanks to Julie!) in different blogs. !...and if you have read any other good books lately, please feel free to leave a comment, and tell me about it, I'm always interested in good literature.
Also for all you expectant mothers...6 months is awesome!!! The older my little one gets, the more fun, and cuter she gets, I heard some moms with teenagers have different opinions, but babyhood is GREAT!! They smile tons, and you can see their little personalities come out even more.

6 months already!!!!

2 posts in one day!!!..What is going on??? here are some more pictures of the tiny one...
She really loves this book....

Go FLAMES GO!!!

The Blessing....

Sunday Dec 2/2007 was Maija's blessing, it was such a neat experience, moments like that make me very grateful for the priesthood, and the power that it has in our lives. My mom made Maija this beautiful dress for the occassion, and it was a great day, we were able to have lots of good friends, and family there.

all smiles...

Maija is such a smiley baby, here is one of her first smiles, right after we got home from the land, after her 1 month birthday she started smiling a ton.

May the force be with you....

For Halloween we decided to take Maija out, and in style. Here is her Princess Leia costume! She looked adorable, and although she does have a lot of hair, we were unable to do the hair style without a little bit of help. She is growing, and growing! I love our little princess! She did get a bit of candy, but was generous enough to donate it to her Mom and Dad, lol! The Costume was a hit!

Maija!!!!!!

She is finally here! I really should have updated this a LONG time ago, but our little baby girl finally arrived, here are a few photos. She arrived Oct 11th, which makes her only 19 days old!!! She is just our pride and joy, and has truly taken over our lives in a wonderful way! On Wed Oct 10th, Wyatt and I went to the Rockyview Hospital to have me induced, since our little baby was already a week overdue. After 12 hours of labor, and a C-section, our little Maija was born. She was 6lbs, 12 oz, and 19 inches long! It is amazing how such a small person can change your life to drastically! I love my little Tiny one! Here a picture of Maija a few minutes after she was born, and one of her, and her Dad!!

Growing, growing, growing...

So things are just moving along with our little baby, we only have about a month left before we meet the new addition to our family, and that's both incredibly exciting, and a bit intimidating (diapers anyone?)

Last Monday we completed our last baby class, we learned all about diapers, baths, and what to buy, and what NOT to buy for your baby.

This is all so SURREAL, but awesome!

We had a great summer so far; Waterton, Rocky, Drummheller are just a few of the places we have visited, I'll post more pictures next time

Adios
