SMILE!

Almost 7 weeks old!

Jocelyn is now almost 7 weeks old and we are just loving her to pieces! She is smiling lots for us and starting to make all those cute "baby talk" kinda sounds. She is growing quickly and has already outgrown some of her newborn outfits! Here are a few pictures of our little "peanut"!


Okay, so not the happiest picture but you can at least see how big she is!

All that posing and picture taking was hard work - she was ready for a nap!

Deck railings

Our deck is finally looking like a real deck again. The railings were installed last week and we are very happy with how it looks! Can't wait for summertime to put it to good use!

Life and smiles!

I got my first smile from Jocelyn today! It was a better one than what is on the picture but that is all I could get after getting the camera. I can't wait for more!



The older kids are loving their new baby sister. Generally they are quite gentle with her and always want to check on her and give her lots of hugs and kisses. I hope this sibling love continues!


Our precious sleeping little Jocelyn!

Gingerbread houses

The making of the gingerbread houses is becoming a bit of a tradition in our house. Every year between Christmas and New Year's, my neice's bring over their kids and each child gets to decorate their own little house. As the kids get older, it is fun to watch them each decorate their own house and make it their own. They all have their favourite candies and their unique way of piling on as many candies as possible! Kendra, Owen and Sydney all did a great job of designing their houses, while Carson and Berlin did a great job of eating the candies just as fast as their mom's were putting them on the houses! It was a fun morning!







The whole crew showing off their handiwork. I wonder how long they lasted in one piece? :)
