My boyz

Well Andrew is now 3weeks old hard to believe it's been 3 weeks. Little Andrew is getting quite chubby and is starting to fill out the 3mos old cloths. Looks like he'll be out growing his cloths the same way Matty was.  Matty is starting to show more interest but his jealousy has increased as well. He likes to hold Andrew and lie down with him and pretend to go nite nite. The three of us are adjusting and I have to keep telling myself to take a deep breath and if certain things get done or if it takes me 2hrs to go shopping  it's not a big deal.

Our little Canucks fan!!

Week 3

Well Andrew had is 2wk follow up exam and he is now over 10lbs! Looks like I will have another big boy on my hands. Matty is now weighing at around 33-35lbs and is about 35" tall crazy!!!! This I have decided I need to take it easy so we have stuck around home more but tomorrow we'll be off to Strong Start and on Friday Gymnastics have to keep Matty busy he just has so much energy! Well someone is now hungry so I'm off.

Matty chose his own cloths this day, note the layer of the shirts!

Baby Andrew fast asleep!

Matty's new water table.....best thing ever!

My three boyz!

Week 2 almost over

Well I have been able to check off the following items on my "Will I be able to do this" list.
1) Take crazy ass dog for a walk with toddler and infant in tow. Check
2) Can I get household chores done with toddler, infant & crazy ass dog. Check
3) Can I go grocery shopping with toddler & infant and not have to leave the store empty handed. Check
4) Am I able to get out of the house before 10am with toddler & infant in tow. Check
So with week 2 ending and I have been able to check this major items off my list it appears that I will be able to survive for the next year. Yeah!!!

Week 2

Well this is the 1st full week that I'll be alone with my boys. Monday seems to have gone well with a play date with the cousins, then afternoon nap followed with play time. Matty is adjusting well, always needs to know where the baby is and lets me know when he thinks I've spent enough time with Andrew, "Baby sit" or Baby down". He is doing surprising well with Andrew and has even held him twice. Hope to be posting some more pictures soon just have to get them in order.

It's a boy!

Well quite the Mother's Day.....we welcomed Andrew Callum Cornell into our lives at 9:52pm May 8, 2011. It seems that both our children need to have stories to go along with their births. Matty's as most people know was that he didn't really want to come out and when he did he gave us a scare in having to be in the NICU for the first couple of days. Andrew on the other hand couldn't wait to come as he didn't even let us get to the hospital. Contractions began around 4-4:30pm on Sunday and I told John that he shouldn't plan on going to work on Monday, but we thought we had lots of time seeing that Matty was about 12hrs, boy were we wrong. So we had family over for dinner and then I went up stairs to rest as the contractions were starting to form more of a pattern. around 45min later I thought I should get in the tub cause it helped last time. I called my mom who came over and John called the midwife. She said it sounded like we had another 2-3hrs to go but if the contractions got worse to head to the hospital and she would meet us there. Well  no more then 5mins later I said we better go. Once I got out of the tub I said no you better call 911 cause I don't think I'm going to make it to the truck. John called 911 while I laid on the bed to get through another contraction, next thing I know I'm pushing and John is delivering our little guy into the world. The ambulance and midwife showed up about 10-15mins after that and everyone was declared healthy. So no hospital was needed and now we're a family of four.

A week at home.

Well this week as gone by pretty fast, I have watch more the my fair share of Toopy and Bino plus Mater Tales. I don't know how but Matty can watch them over and over again. It makes a nice break for me but man I know them by heart now. We're off to try out gymnastics with some of the other moms tomorrow so we'll see how Matty likes it.

I have gotten all the baby gear ready and cleaned the house so I won't have to worry too much when the little guy gets here. Matty is quite interested but for now doesn't appear to want a lot to do with any of it....so here's hoping that he doesn't regress too much once his brother gets here.

Work is done.

Well Friday was my last day so now we're playing the waiting game.....so far no baby!
So it'll be just me and Matty for the next little bit but something tells me we won't have to wait that long, so I'm going to try to get this organzied cause I know I won't have time after the little one is here.
