Wow, time has flown by! My little baby is 3 months old- and it has been a whirlwind in a very special way. We have had company at our house for about half of Amara`s life already, so it has been busy! My parents were out for 2 weeks, and then the day they left my in-laws arrived for 10 days. The next week my sister came out with my niece Ella for a weekend, my childhood friend Candace came out for a night, last weekend my 2 sister in laws were here for 4 days. And on Tuesday night we said goodbye to my sister in law Amy and her daughter Emilie. I have also been trying to catch up on having families over for meals, as our friends did so much for us throughout the end of my pregnancy.
Through all this craziness you would barely know we had a baby! She is seriously so good, we feel so very blessed! She is so content and we have barely heard a cry out of her and when she does it is like a kitten meowing. I`m sure it won`t last long, but we sure are enjoying it! We have made so many memories and I haven`t had a chance to blog, but I will try and do a quick recap.

 |
| We already traded our little bird, for the big bird (18 foot double eagle for our 14 foot double eagle) So on the HOT weekend we took it out to find a new beach and the girls tubed the entire way there. Adessa LOVED every moment of it- was yelling to go faster and squealing with delight every time there was a wave. Danika wasn't quite as enthralled! |
 |
| Gorgeous day on the ocean... white sandy beaches and endless exploring! |
 |
| Beautiful Auntie Amy and big cousin Emilie. Amy watched the girls while Steve and I went out to celebrate our anniversary. First time leaving Amara, and she did amazing! |
 |
| Emilie was SUCH a big helper- changing Amara's bum and holding her. |
 |
| Swimming in the ocean already! Such good times with big cousin! |
 |
Hubby took me on the boat across to Salt Spring Island to celebrate our 7th Anniversary. It was a GORGEOUS evening, and we sat out on the patio. I enjoyed some freshly caught halibut... it was DELICIOUS! Such a special night as it was the first time leaving Amara. Seven years being married to my best friend. I can truly say I love my husband more and more every year.
7 years, 4 houses, a few different jobs, 2 provinces, several vehicles, 3 boats, 3 children, 1 dog, 1 crazy lawsuit. It has been totally awesome, and I wouldn't change a thing!!! (okay maybe the 3 boats!)
So there is a recap in photos of our last three months!!! |
