Scary things that shouldn't see the light of day

My old chemo wig being one of them :-)

Orin was petrified....

FHE Treat

Our treat for family home evening was a Lemon meringue pie. Aidan loves to help in the kitchen and this time he especially loved the "lick". (That's what we call the leftovers in the bowl)

Jesse's Visitors

In no particular order:

(you know how hard it is to upload photo's) Uncle Wayne

Oupa and Vicki

Aunty Lara

Aunty Kerry

Granny

Hannah and Margot

Aunty Janyne and Aunty Devra

Pops and Nanna

Aunty Christl

Jesse's aunts, uncles and brothers.

Great Aunty Andre

There were other people who didn't want their photo taken (or published) but I forgive them :-)

Jesse Michael Hugo makes his Arrival

Jesse was born at 38 weeks on the 12 June 2009. He weighed 3.080kg and is 51cm long. We are all so happy to have him in our home. I am already in love with this perfect little person.

This is me 3 hours after the cesarean. I was mad because the nurses only brought him to me after such a long time.

Dr. McDreamy, minutes before the operation. Taken by me while lying in the stretcher waiting to be wheeled in to the operating theatre. My nerves where starting to get the better of me already.

Always my favourite part (albeit scary) when the brothers meet. Aidan is very happy to have Jesse around. Orin is still deciding.

Granny, Aidan and Jesse.

Apples, Cheese and Orin

I was trying to get a natural shot of Orin but everytime he sees the camera he says "Cheese"!

36 Weeks

36 weeks and still counting! How grateful I am that this pregnancy has gone without a hitch. My pregnancy with Aidan was very eventful and he was born at 36 weeks. With Orin, my water's broke while we were on holiday (32 weeks). The gynae managed to keep him comfortable for another week and he was born at 33 weeks. So this is a major milestone for me. I am beginning to see why pregnant woman complain about being uncomfortable :-)

15 days to go!

Had a huge shock at the gynae today...he told me that I will need to have my ceasarean at 38 weeks. So instead of 21 days, I only have 15. I know that is only 6 days difference, but I feel so unprepared right now. Not unprepared for the baby but for all the things that need to be done before that!

Autumn in Africa

A week ago Logan was cleaning the car with the high pressure cleaner and Aidan decided to help. At the end he was sopping wet and I told him to take all his clothes off, leave them at the door and go get changed. I realised a while later that he was very quiet and this is how I found him, enjoying the sunshine in Autumn.

Yoga Boys

I had to snap these photos of Logan doing BYU TV Yoga. I especially love Aidan's laidback method.
