Seeing The Fingerprints

This little man is 9 months old now.  He has learned the crawl very well.  He's also decided that isn't good enough and needs to stand up by every piece of furniture that he can.  He's attempted to climb a few stairs and has managed to walk between a few pieces of furniture as well. Time to baby proof!      

Life is rolling on by, seems like not much is happening yet a lot is happening at the same time.... Our little man is 9 months old now and crawling and eating anything and everything his little eyes can find.  This has been keeping me on my toes and watching out for any little specks of things he can eat.  I don't always catch these things before he does.  It makes for a busy day running around after him.  Good thing he naps part of his day! We also have returned home from our first 2014 get-a-way. The first one was our annual trip to Sunpeaks.  This year we had three kids on skis!  They all loved it!  As always we enjoyed good food, good company, great weather (iffy snow). I was a little lazy with my camera however....but with 9 kids 8 years and younger I was leery to leave it anywhere but in its camera bag :)  And yes I was too lazy to hike the stairs every time to dig it out.  I'm sure I'll come to regret it, but there are a few mor...

Oops, I didn’t officially take a photo of the little man at 7 months.  This is a cute one though 8 months today!  (Lots of snow coming down at our house)

Almost every year since the Mr and I have been dating we have rode the West Coast Express into Vancouver on the Christmas Train.  One year we had to miss out since we had a new baby (Miss A) Every other year we’ve managed to go on the train.  So when I looked it up off we went into Vancouver again.  Mr. J’s first Train Ride! We also met up and took along some special uncles and aunties….Thanks for entertaining the kids on the train and all over Vancouver you guys!  The kids loved it!

  I think I say it every year…….but I’m saying it again.  I can’t believe I have a 7 year old in the house!  It never is how long we’re married that makes me feel older, its seeing those oldest child's eyes and saying really she’s been in our lives for that long. But alas she has been a blessing and joy in our lives.  She’s growing up way to quickly! (Ok, some days I say not quick enough if I’m honest). Anyways here are some photos of her birthday, birthday party with family and the best of all candy land party that she shared with a  school friend. We love you Miss A.  We pray God will be with you in the years ahead.  That he will allow you to grow and turn into a wonderful young lady! 7 seems to be the year when toys start disappearing and craft supplies start appearing!  This is a good thing as her birthday is close to those Christmas holidays and now she has lots of things to keep her busy!  She also received a book from her auntie ...

Just have to blog these photos.  My hubby participated in Movember along with a few more people at his job.  Our girls were strongly opposed to Daddy growing a moustache, but to no avail did their threats come through.  Our one daughter told us if daddy grows a moustache I’m moving out to the neighbours.  She stayed the whole month!  I also stayed the whole month and when he finally did shave it off he left for a trip to Israel. So looking forward to seeing him come home tonight moustache free! Love you babe!  It was fun watching you grow this for a good cause!  We’ll see if you do it again?
