Smiling and laughing already!


Hello everyone!
I can't believe Riley is already 6 1/2 weeks old! He is growing so big! He almost weighs 12 pounds and is already wearing 3 month old clothing. He is so happy and so healthy! We are so blessed!! He has been smiling since he was 3 weeks old, and now he is chuckling, it is the best sound in the world! I'm kind of bragging...I'm just so proud of my little guy!
Nick and I are doing well, he is still working as a landscaper and I am still working as a mom. I found some cool friends since Riley has been born. A lot of them are moms which makes it really cool. I also found a bible study group yesterday. There are a lot of young moms with young children and two of them have boys that are just days apart from Riley. We also found a church here in abbotsford that we like, so God is totally blessing us with community! It has been so long since I have settled down and felt like I was at home. It is such a wonderful feeling. That's the update so far, if any of you want to come and visit that live close (ahem...Brady we still haven't hung out!) feel free!

I figure in Brady's defense i must state that he is not very close to you at all in fact he is about 6 door down the hall from me here in the ever beautiful and interesting province of Saskatchewanand the bustling metropolis of Caronport. Seriously though I think there are more people in Crofton although to be honest it is really sweet out here right now. Anyway the little dude is looking pretty sweet. healthy and happy. Are you doing ok sleep wise?

Oh I totally forgot that you guys are all back in school! Holy cow, I can't believe how out of the loop I am. (Sorry Brady!)
I am doing great sleep wise. Riley usually sleeps from 10:30pm-3:30am then 4:00am-7:30am. I have it pretty easy...so far!

Nick and Amanda, you are so blessed to have this little guy. I took the liberty of making a slideshow of your pics, as the Blog was having issues and my previous slideshow-maker has been foiled by Google. If you don't like it let me know and I will switch back to regular pics and make it work. When are you making an Island Tour?
