Alex's New House






I took Baba out to our new house in our new truck this past Friday. All the siding is done & once the stone is on we'll finally see what our house looks like!

Big Brother Report

The baby now weighs almost one pound / 430 grams, measures nearly 11 inches/ just over 27 centimetres long from crown to heel.

Mommy at 22 weeks

Mommy has been talking to me a lot about baby. She said that baby will sleep in the crib in Mommy & Daddy's room. I said "Alex's crib"! I guess he can borrow it. She also said it is time for me to say bye-bye to my suce & that the baby will need it. We'll see about that!
Mommy saw the first movements of the baby through her belly last night. Baby has strong kicks & likes to wake Mommy up early... my kind of sibling! Daddy felt baby for the first time this morning by placing his hand on Mommy's belly. I don't have the patience for that!

House Update - Part II







It's nice to see the colours that we choose. Hopefully we like the interior as much! Though, it's hard to go wrong with almond & tan!

House Update - Part I


There is lots of light in the house because of these windows.




We're very happy we went with a much larger window in the great room.




We ventured out to Cochrane to day to see the house & wow, a lot has happened! The siding has started, all the electrical & plumbing are done and the tubs/showers and fireplace are in. Mommy & Daddy can really envision how things are going to look.

New haircut


Mommy took me for my third haircut this morning. I sat quietly in the pink girlie jeep while
the nice lady used the clippers on me. Mommy can't stop looking at me & rubbing my head. I have to admit, I do look very handsome & much more mature now!

Daddy's Birthday Cake


We had Easter dinner at Auntie Liping & Uncle Byron's house. After entertaining the family with my piano playing, I enjoyed LOTS of Daddy's birthday cake!

April the Third

Mommy was ecstatic when she finally found Paul Frank's Julius 'faux hawk' t-shirt in my size!

A very quiet morning at Prince's Island Park.

My new tractor!! Vroom, vroom!

Calgary Spring




I enjoyed a very nice morning with Madison at the park yesterday. It was very sunny but chilly. Madison & I played so much we didn't notice but the Mom's sure did. After lots of playing we went for a much needed snack; Madison & I held hands along the way which I thought was not that exciting but the Mom's kept gushing... geesh!
Today's visit to a park ended up much longer than Mom anticipated as she locked the keys in the truck. I was a wee bit fussy upon arriving home, not knowing quite what I wanted. "Bed", "eat", "suce", "bed", "tired", "eat"... Mom heard these words hundreds of times before I finally went down for my nap!
