Half Way!

Today is the halfway mark! Twenty weeks down and twenty to go!! Our little baby boy is growing more and more each day. I am feeling movement and kicking more regularly and strongly. Norm has felt the baby two times now. =)
Here are a few fun facts!!
-Today the baby should be 10 inches from head […]

California Sunshine

After the family reunion in Illinois we all hopped on an airplane and headed down to California.  We will be here for another week and a half before returning to Ontario.  We have truly enjoyed the last couple weeks, they have been a welcome and much needed break after our French course in Québec.   […]

Abe is Scary

We are in Illinois attending a family reunion for Deb’s dad’s family. The Rutledge family has a lot of history in this area, in fact, Debra’s ancestor Ann Rutledge was engaged to Abraham Lincoln though she died of typhoid before they were married. We visited the Lincoln museum which for me was very […]

Planes, Trains and Automobiles

Today we begin another voyage, this time through Michigan, Illinois and then California. And yes, when we finally get to California we will have traveled in a plane, a train and an automobile. Canaan will be super excited to experience all those modes of transportation! We will be in Michigan until Friday […]

Suggestions Please!

Before we were even expecting Canaan, his name was chosen so we really never had to search and think about names. Until now! This time we have no idea what to name the baby. We had decided to wait until the ultrasound to even begin so that we would only have one […]

Baby #2

The final results on our poll were 25 to 16 for the girls, but the question remains - who was right? This afternoon we received the exciting answer!
(drumroll please!)
Baby #2 is Boy #2!
We had a great appointment with our midwife and the baby seems to be progressing well. Debra is still having […]

3 hours and counting

In three hours we will be forever leaving our home in Québec!  We will be going to get Canaan from the nursery, head over to our friends house for dinner and then head home to Ontario straight from there.  We have found from past travels that Canaan sleep fine in the car and so night […]

Vieux Québec - One last time

You might think that we are tired of visiting historic Old Québec since every-time someone comes to visit we usually head down there to show them some of the beautiful architecture and history of Québec, but really we haven’t.  We went there again yesterday with Deb’s sister Christy and we had an awesome afternoon!  The […]

Listening In

We now have our very own fetal doppler!  Deb’s sister Christy brought it with her and we have had a lot of fun listening to the newest member of our family.  The doppler also gave us the heart rate, though I’m not sure how accurate it is, it said that it was around 155 bpm.  […]

Canaan’s ‘Pet’

We have a little aquarium set up that Canaan just adores to sit and watch.  Inside there is a newt, and you can often hear Canaan calling out, ‘newt! newt! where’d it go?’  Last week our friend Kris brought Canaan some fun bath soap and inside the soap was a plastic lizard.  Though it is […]
