Vernon...

My week in Vernon was wonderful. First of all, the weather was amazing. It was +6 pretty much the whole week. Knowing the temperature was -30 back home, I definitely enjoyed being in the "warmer" weather. As always, I was also able to visit with lots of family and friends. Liam did very well for being passed around all week.

Visiting Family and Friends

Grandma and Auntie Donna were able to come for a day.

Thanks for the cute outfit Grandpa and Grandma Phillips!

Catching a few smiles...

Happy Birthday Daddy!

Josh turned 24 today and Liam wanted to wish his daddy a happy birthday!

We love you and miss you!

Chillin' in Calgary

This past week Josh and I have been hanging out in Calgary. Josh has a training course with Ford and now that I'm on maternity, I can tag along. So I'm just chilling in the hotel, it's been very relaxing! Then on Friday, I'll fly out to BC to visit Grandma and Grandpa Weglo and Auntie Shelley. I can't wait!

Liam has been growing so much lately. He had his shots a couple weeks ago, and the doctor was very impressed with his weight. He is becoming so interactive with us and is always full of smiles. This past Monday Liam also had his first giggle...one of my favorite sounds! Now that we know he can giggle we're trying to get him to do it all the time. Here are a few pictures of our little guy from the last couple weeks.

Liam all ready for our College & Career Christmas Party

I can never get enough of these pictures...they are so cute. This was the night after Liam shots. Thankfully he didn't have a fever, he was just really sleepy.

Liam looking a little stunned :)

Watching hockey highlights in bed with Daddy

Love those chubby cheeks!

Here are a few pictures from this last weekend in Edmonton. We drove down on Saturday to meet up with my sisters and mom. We shopped the weekend away. Christmas shopping, wedding dress shopping...lots of fun! The mall was PACKED full of people and having two babies makes things a little more hectic, but it was still a great weekend. Hopefully we can make it an annual event!

Hanging out in the hotel

Liam's first time swimming

We tried to go swimming every night...it really made the boys sleepy :)

Another way to tire Isaac out... we let him crawl all the way to our room from the elevator. :)



Isaac gets bigger everytime I see him!

Liam's photoshoot with Daddy

He's getting a lot more interactive with us and is always full of smiles.

Trip to Vernon

Well we've been home for almost 2 weeks since Vernon, and I still haven't posted about it...so sorry.
Our trip to Vernon was so much fun! It was great to finally be able to introduce Liam to many of our family and friends. My Dad and sister Shelley hadn't come up when he was born, so this was their first time meeting him.

Bath time for Isaac

Liam meeting his Great Auntie Terri and Great Uncle Gerry

Ryan wants to make sure Amanda isn't getting any ideas :)

One day, we took a trip up to Davison Orchards for their pumpkin festival. Sarah and I got to take our boys on a tractor ride up to the pumpkin patch. We waited in line for quite a while, so as soon as we got to the pumpkin patch it was Liam's feeding time. Sarah and I felt like the worst mom's. My kid was screaming his head off as we try and take a picture, while Isaac is left on the ground filling his face with mud! It did make for some pretty funny pictures though...

Liam's thoughts: "Give me some food!!"

Isaac's thoughts: "Hey buddy, it's alright. Try the dirt, it's good"

Yay! Finally a good one.

Sarah and I were able to make a trip to Clearwater to see the Paquettes for an afternoon. It was so nice to finally visit with all of them.




The day before we left, some friends came over to my parents to throw Liam a baby shower.

Liam all dressed up for his shower waiting for the girls to arrive

They were all very willing to hold Liam and he slept through it all.

It was definitely a great trip. This coming weekend, Sarah and I are heading to Edmonton to meet up with my mom and Shelley for some wedding dress shopping. Should be fun!

The many expressions of Liam...

What a cutie! Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

The past 2 weeks have been so wonderful. Here are some updates of what our little family has been up too.
On the Saturday after Liam was born, Tammy and Rachel organized a baby shower for us. We got SO spoiled. It was so nice that so many friends and family were able to celebrate with us.

Rachel made this cute diaper cake

A couple of our youth in the church made a diaper changing kit for Josh.

Our family and friends

My mom, sister, and grandma were such a great help for us when Liam came home. It was very hard when they had to leave. They were always there to take Liam when I needed a nap, made wonderful meals, and left my house so clean. I can't say it looks that way anymore :)

Cousins

Josh's first diaper change. It was only a "pee" diaper...he still hasn't changed a "messy" one. Hopefully soon :)

Emmett getting to know Liam...

Our new favorite passtime: Cuddling with our little guy.

I forgot to congratulate Auntie Wanda in my last post for winning the Baby Poll!! She guessed the right day, Sept 16th. Thanks again for all your guesses!
