Playing catch up!

I've got many many photos to post from the last 2 months so I figured the best way was to do some slide shows.


The first is all about the 3 weeks that my Mom came and spent here. I truly can never thank her enough for all the help she provided in my last week and a half of pregnancy and first week and a half of adjustment when Charlotte came home. It would have been crazy without her! The slideshow is a variety of shots - mostly playing with Elijah and time with Charlotte. Note how great the front yard looks after Mom spent hours in the flower gardens!! :)


The second show is my Dad's 60th birthday celebration. Mom spent months planning this and invited lots of family and friends. Lots of them were able to come out, including my brother and his fiance, who stayed with us. It was great to see everyone and the dinner was really nice too. Elijah had a great deal of fun, especially since he got to help make Grandpa's cupcakes and then blow out the candles on them, many times!


Elijah and Yumi also had moments of fun, including this one that I caught a clip of. (See below)

The final show is from Charlotte's One-Month Banquet. After some deliberation, Gary and I decided to keep it small this time. We hosted just 2 tables of family at the Kirin restaurant in City Square. The meal and service were excellent. We were very pleased that Grandma and Grandpa could make it as well, despite it meaning they did another drive to Vancouver! Thanks to everyone for helping us celebrate!




And finally, here are a couple pictures of Charlotte on her actual one-month "birthday".
