Smiles

Hey everyone! Sean is hanging out with his Granda Jim for now so I have a few minutes to update this blog. I'm sure most of you have stopped checking it all together now as I haven't had much on here since the baby has been born but I'll post just in case. :) As you may have already noticed there are no commas in this post. There was a bit of an incident with John changing Sean's nappy and the keyboard lying too close by and the comma key was the victim.
Ah!!! He's starting to fuss already so I'll just say he is growing a lot looking forward to seeing everyone at Christmas and laughing a little bit now. Here's the latest video. Enjoy!

Our baby

Hey everyone! Finally a minute in my new mommyhood to put up a post! Maybe in the coming months I'll get more of these moments? Don't burst my bubble.
We are having a great time getting used to our new little man. Yes, after nearly 7 weeks we are STILL getting used to him. Funny how every little thing he does is worthy of an Olympic gold medal in our eyes. Still, every time he smiles, bops himself in the face with one of his little fists, or fills his diaper, anything he does, we're right there with the camera. You'd think we had never seen a baby before, but it's different when it's your own.
Anyhoo...I've heard that some of you are missing his little sounds, so I'm posting a video for you to see him in action. Please ignore the bit in the middle where he fills his diaper and the part at the end where he spits up (it's hard to get a good clip of him without some bodily function included. You were just lucky enough to get two in this one. hehehe).
Hope everyone is well at home. We can't wait to see you at Christmas!!

Pics



Hey! Just wanted to let you know I haven't forgotten. I know I said I would put some pics up on here, but for some reason I am having trouble getting them on here from my snapfish account. I've tried twice now, but no luck. For those of you without facebook, I suppose you could ask someone who has it to show them to you on there (Jennifer, this means you! Mom and Dad would like to see them). For now, here's a cute one to hold you over :)

Due date + 9

Hey everyone! I know you are all waiting to hear the exciting news, but it looks like this litte one is going to keep us waiting a bit longer. I was at the doctor again today. Things have progressed a bit, but not a lot. They have me scheduled to go in for an induction Thursday evening, but I asked if this could be postponed as it is only 11 days past my due date and a pregnancy is still considered normal up to 42 weeks. So I will still be going in on Thursday, getting the baby monitored and scanned, and as long as everything still looks good, we can wait a bit longer. Yeah! I'm a bit nervous about being induced and want to put it off as long as is safe for the baby. So, raspberry tea, spicy foods, long walks, funny looking exercises, etc, etc, etc. I think I'm done taking photographs, so you'll just have to wait til the baby comes to see something else on here. Hopefully you will all hear something soon :)

Due Date + 3



Well, I was at the doc yesterday, but unfortunately, no progress made. The baby is just very comfy in there I guess. In case I haven't gone by next Thursday, the 22nd, I have been scheduled to go to the hospital for an induction. After begging and pleading, this is the lastest day she would give me as the baby has put on so much weight and hasn't made a move yet. Please pray for us that it comes on it's own. I have heard so many times that it is harder if you are induced and that you are more likely to have a c-section and both of these things scare the life out of me. After getting home yesterday, I walked in gail force winds and I've been out walking in the rain today, anything to try to get this baby moving naturally.
