finally!!!

We have a date... the baby will be here on July 3rd as our c/section is scheduled for 11am! In case you didn't know our babies like to stay upright in the womb!
We are SO excited to meet this baby in just 4 days!
What do you think... boy or girl?
Please pray for us, and for Noah as he becomes a big brother... and spends his first night away from his mom and dad! And for a speedy recovery so we can get home asap!

"we" are 5 years old.

today, June 22nd, lydia and i have been married for 5 years! my how time flies, and how amazing it is to look back and see the road behind us. what an amazing gift marriage is.

we celebrated on tuesday night by heading up to the posh Grouse Mountain (the Vancouver thing to do!) for dinner. the restaurant apparently overlooks the city, although we'll have to take their word for it as we were being bear-hugged by a cloud that evening. nevertheless, the food (and company!) was great. as for our plans for the actual date of our anniversary? we're hoping to be surprised by an early arrival of our second child (although we're not placing too much weight in this hope!) :)

welcome to niece Katelyn!

Lydia has always been concerned that she would not have the opportunity to buy pink for any of the new babies born into either of our families. in a little over a year the fear has dissipated, as the girls are quickly catching up with the boys!
The current score is
Boys: 6
Girls: 4
we'll have to see which way our little one tips the scale.

congrats Brad and Tonya!

what's up...



Hmmm, what's new? Aaron just finished exams last week, so off for a few weeks until spring school starts. Noah has his second birthday approaching next week... he seems like such a big boy to us lately! This week he starting singing the complete alphabet song. As you can see in the second picture he has spent the past few days feeling a bit under the weather. We spent some time with the Nellis' this past weekend and noah was reaquainted with his buddy sylas. I am now 29 weeks pregnant... and only about 4 weeks left of work! We are all looking forward to meeting the new baby... and bringing him/her home to sarnia for a visit in August!

of boys, baker, and boarding

Lydia's brother, Jesse, and I went snowboarding at Mt. Baker in Washington when he and his family came to visit a few weeks ago. Check out the video he put together of our day on the slopes. (you probably won't be interested in the full 23 minutes of it, but if you want to see how stunning the terrain of mt. baker is and how mediocre my snowboarding is, just a couple minute viewing will suffice...)
