Baby Room so far...

This is the baby's room half finished...I need to organize and finish decorating!

Abbie's Room


We finally finished Abbie's big girl room...with time to spare for the baby to come.

Happy Birthday Spencer!

Spencer turned 26 years old on July 24th! He is now in the late 20s....we had a BBQ for the big day and I let him stink the house out with seafood for the occasion.

Fun in July!

Me so excited at the Kenny Chesney and Taylor Swift concert!
Char-Lane and I at the concert....you could never tell how much has changed since the last time we were at an outside concert together! We're both married and Moms!

Abbie loves babies and she was so sweet with Summer, Char-Lane's little sweetheart!


Spencer and I dressed up to see the Lion King...it was amazing by the way and totally worth seeing!

The Summer is full of yummy foods!

Abbie discovered corn on the cob and stole Mommy's, for now on she gets her own corn on the cob!
Abbie also discovered fudgicles! Yummy and messy...poor Mommy.

Cooking with Mom

Abbie has to sample the cookie dough to make sure that I put enough butter and sugar in it! That is her favourite part. She even tried the flour once and that was enough!
Abbie and I have been making cookies on fridays...we wear our matching aprons and Abbie is the master taste tester!

Trip to the Zoo

Abbie favourite part of the entire day was going for a train ride right at the end! We had to wait in line and she wanted to get on the train so bad that it was hard to distract her. When it was finally her turn she had the biggest smile and she was going "Choo-Choo" the whole way.
After the train ride...Abbie did not want to get off!
All 3 of us on the train...Abbie was getting impatient for it to get moving!

It's a Boy!

Well, we found out 2 weeks ago that we are having a Spencer Jr. We had an ultrasound on June 17th and the technician said she was 95% sure we were having a girl and I was so excited! Then two days later we went for another ultrasound and that technician said we were having a boy! I was a little shocked, but she showed us the "unit" and it was pretty clear that something was there. I am not decorating the room until the end of this month beacuse I have another ultrasound appt and they can confirm it!

Two whole months of FUN!

I have been so bad at updating this lately, but now that my energy is coming back to me I will try to do better. May and June flew by...here are some of the highlights. Abbie continues to love playing outside whenever the weather is nice. She got a new rollercoaster toy and of course it wasn't fast enough the way it was so Spencer had to ghetto rig it! He is slowly turning our daughter into a daredevil.
Abbie and I went to Prince George for a little holiday to visit. We took a four generation picture at church.

Abbie has recently turned into a streaker! I can't keep the clothes on her... This time I came outside and she had all her clothes off and was trying to get the diaper off.

Abbie's first time holding a frog with daddy. Spencer almost ran it over with lawn mower and we had a pet for an hour. Abbie called it rippit.

"Good Morning Mommy" Abbie had gotten into all my makeup at night and in the morning their was a nice surprise for me! She had ruined everything all my eyeshadow, eyeliner....it was a mess!

Day at the lake with Grama and Grandpa, cousins Faith and Nathan. The lake was a little cold and Abbie was not about to get in. She enjoyed playing in the sand with Grandpa.


Abbie had a lot of fun playing in Grama and Grandpa's backyard. Grama was kept very busy!

More fun in the Grama's yard...Abbie would go thru at least 3 pairs of clothes a day because she was always jumping in the pool. Faith and Nathan came over every day.

Abbie playing dress up and eating snacks at Faith's house...These two had a lot of fun together when they weren't arguing over some toy! Abbie can now say Faith, Nathan, Aunty Jeni, and Uncle Richard. She would cry when they would leave to go home every night.


We had to finally buy a lawn mower...This is Spencer's first time mowing our lawn. (He's all grown up)

Abbie loves the bubbles...that bubble machine is always on.

Abbie has changed so much in the last couple of months. She is turning into such a big girl.
