See this man:
Yes him. That one right there in the canoe. I have been married to this man for 7 years. 7. And I love him more than I ever thought possible. Seven years ago today I stood nervously – since I have a fear of crowds & public speaking – in front of my closest friends and family and said these words aloud: In the presence of God and before these witnesses, I L.aura take you J.ohn to be my husband. I will treasure our friendship, and love you today, tomorrow, and forever. I will trust and honour you. I will laugh and cry with you, and share my life…

Happy Birthday Mr. E!
I took this photo just minutes ago at the same time you were born. I do this every year. I honestly can’t believe how big you have gotten. It’s hard to believe it’s been 3 years since I experienced birth for the first time and met you. You have really been amazing this past year. You’ve seen things, you know things you never should have had to see at the ripe ol’age of 2. But, you were a trooper. You took it in stride and handled it so well.

Noah is 1!
Today Noah turns 1. I can’t believe it. It’s a lot easier to put pictures together than the words (still working on it). But I wanted to share because I’m so proud of my little man and every thing he is becoming. It’s been a hard year but he amazes me and everyone who knows him every day! Here’s the link of Noah’s birth story I wrote while we were still in the Children’s Hospital last April: Birth Story The entries I wrote about this amazing man and difficult road we were given: Some of the Past Year with N Happy Birthday, Noah! We love you!

Smartie has arrived
Smartie meet the interweb. Interweb meet Smartie. Yes, Eli finally named his elf this year and called him Smartie. We are spelling it like the candy since we all know that’s where the name came from! Timbit was his runner up. lmao For a minute he called him Smartie Timbit but suddenly dropped the Timbit but I think it’s a good surname. Not hard to tell what E’s favourite treats are, eh? But Smartie came bearing treats of his own. Rice Krispie treat lollipops are a great “I’m glad to be back” present I think. E was unsure of them as he never had them before but made sure to take…

I’ve Been Sprung!
Mommy & Daddy are proud to let the world know that I’m being sent home! I can’t wait to get to my own bed and see my puppy. I feel like I’ve been in forever. The PICU is a scary place but they do have great care. But I’ve never been happier to leave. Homeward bound! Onwards & upwards!
