2 Years Ago Today..........

2 years ago today we got the call about our baby boy! We saw his picture for the first time. He was only 6 weeks old. I can't believe how fast the time has gone. He is now a very energetic and talkative 2 year old. He is sensitive and sweet. He adores his family.

Tarik you will always be our baby boy!! We love you!!

Overdue Update!

Since I posted last lots has happened!

Mira graduated from the 4th grade. She made the Honor Roll every semester. We are so proud of her! She is such a great big sis and role model for Tarik and Indi.

We finally got our bus "Marley" on the road.

We watched the final playoffs between the Canuck's and Boston. Unfortunately, our team didn't win. Tarik however, became a huge hockey fan!

Mira turned 10 on June 19th. We celebrated with family and friends at Wild Island and then Mira and her cousins camped out in Marley. Here is one pic from her b-day (I don't have the other pics yet but will post them soon).

My Mom was in Reno for my b-day (she surprised me).

Indi is now 3 months old! She is chubby! She now weighs 13lbs and 6oz. Ind is smiling, cooing, and laughing. So far she is an easy going happy baby. We are so lucky!!

Tarik moved up a level in swim class!

(Thanks for the Marimekko stuff Johanna! - I know i'm bias but I think T looks very handsome in this colour)
