hi there!

this is what miss Isla can be heard saying pretty much every time she see's Mommy or Daddy.
we love it!

sorry for the hiatus!  

we've been a little busy this summer.

July has been jam packed.

July 6-I turned 30

July 7-we moved into our very first house!

July 8-we celebrated 6 wonderful years of being mr & mrs

July 17-we became auntie & uncle & cousin for the first time!

and the most exciting for us:
July 23-we welcomed a 4th member into our family
miss Megan Elaine!

we are completely smitten by her,
even her older sister can't seem to get enough of her!
(which frankly is a big relief!)

we are loving life as a family of four,
and are adjusting very well.

Megan is slightly more noisy than Isla was in the cooing/grunting/crying department,
but she sleeps almost as well as Isla did at the beginning,
so no complaints here!!

blogging will return regularly as i can't wait to show pics of our family, our house, our yard
and what we've been up to these past few weeks :)

mad men

here are the photos of our family 'mad men' style.
sorry for the blurriness! 
Sarah's not sure what happened to her camera settings.

baby Isla
baby Isla and Daddy
a few things:
1. i'm glad that i don't live in the sixties-Thom is a super dad, changing diapers, cleaning house, dinner making, getting up in the night kind of super dad-i don't think this happened in the sixties very often!
2. i think that this is my favourite theme party to date-i had the dress, Isla had the dress, Thom had the suit, we just had to add a few pieces.
3. Isla is wearing the bonnet i wore as a baby at my christening-it was a little big, but made the outfit complete :)

Ramona Quimby age......

twenty-one!?!?!

my littlest sister Roslyn has long been called Ramona. 
in her younger days she was pretty close to a spitting image of the original book cover, 
and the name just stuck around.

but the little baby Ramona is gone!  
Roslyn has turned 21 today. 
she is all grown up and legal even in the states.

Roslyn is a very caring and loyal kind of lady.
she speaks very fondly and lovingly of her friends and her family.
she is fiercely determined and independent.

Roslyn lives in BC right now, the farthest away of anyone in my immediate family,
so we don't get to see her that often.

but we did get a nice visit in Montreal for Danielle's wedding.



we love you Roslyn!! 
have a great day!!
