Time to update the blog...

Chunky Monkey.

J&T with their cousins Morgan & Kaleb Gadd.

Well, I thought it was time to give our blog a bit of an update. Hope you all enjoy the music and new look!

Not much to report. Taylor is going to be 10 weeks old tomorrow, I can't believe how fast time flies!! He had his first dr's appointment last monday and he now weights 15lbs 15 1/2oz..taking after his brother in the size department! He's smiling and laughing and loves to watch his big brother. Jacob adores Taylor, the first words out of his mouth in the morning or after a nap are "Taylor, where's Taylor? Taylor wake??" I've been working on teaching Jacob how to wisper, so that he's not constantly waking taylor up...so now when I say "what does your whisper voice sound like?" he puts his finger to his lips and says "shhhhh taylor sleeping" - then he usually yells his next sentence! lol..

Dave is away working for 10 days, he'll be back next thursday. Jacob and I have both had a horrible flu this week but luckily Taylor was not affected!

The boys are both asleep and I should get there too!

Chillin at home....

The boys lounging in there house coats!

The beautiful cake that Gen made!

Taylor is now over 14lbs and wearing 6 month clothes at just over 7 weeks old. Life is back to normal after the holidays and we're getting back to our normal daily routine. It's been a bit of an adjustment with the new babe, but we're just lucky that he's such a mellow guy and all he seems to do is eat, sleep and grow. Dave and Jacob have been going swimming on the weekends and they even tried skating, which Jacob wasn't a fan of.

Jenna, Gen and Sheena threw Taylor a baby shower at Jenna's house which was very nice of them! Thank you to everyone who came out - can you believe that it snowed again!! I finally got my car out to drive over and then got it stuck there and could bring it home for 3 days 'cause once again there was nowhere to park! lol

New Years on Savary

Self portrait, it was so windy we practically got blown over! Jacob had lot's of fun though, running after the birds.

I love this one..."payback big brother"

We headed over to Savary for New Years on Dec 27th, after waiting 12+ hours for the ferry, due to a breakdown, we finally made it over on Dec 28th and spent the week relaxing. Taylor is growing like a weed and Jacob is being a very good big brother!

Christmas 2008 - better late than never!

We had Christmas at home this year, with Grandma and Granpa Fair and Uncle Danny. We went to Grama and Grampa Warwicks for Christmas dinner, which was a gong show with all of the kids. And we spent Boxing Day at Nana and Grampa's and had a visit with Great Gramma...busy, busy, busy.

Prior to Christmas, on Dec 21st, we had a major flood in our basement which was not very much fun and we are still trying to get things fixed. Then after Christmas, Dec 27th, our gutters starting falling off of our house due to all of the snow and ice...i think i'd like to move somewhere warm!!!

Let it snow....

Well I must be psychic!!!

So after completing my last blog entry, I woke up at 5:30am the next morning in labour!! Woohoo...2 days early!!! Taylor Evan Fair was born November 29th, 2008 at 1:48pm!

He's doing awesome and growing like a weed, as only my kids can do!! Jacob is a very loving big brother, almost too loving, and he doesn't really understand his own strength so at times he can be a bit rough with the little guy!!

The past couple weeks have been a big adjustment, but we're starting to get the hang of it. It's amazing how fast Jacob has grown up in just the past 2 weeks, his words are really coming along, he'll copy any word you ask him to try; he's also started to pee on the potty!! I've been plying him with popsicles and gummy bears and it seems to be working!!
