A few pics of many!!!!

So we were finally able to go in and meet lil Jyles.... pretty much at 28 hours old! He is perfect... and I would like to admit that I am not being biased or anything either!!!  Uncle Dean even thinks so ;)

Here are just a few pics to start with from this past weekend.

       Happy to be home...

Pics from Nana!!!

Yes, it is currently 12:40 am and this auntie hasn't gone to bed yet. We pulled into Saskatoon about 10:15 pm... ever since then, she has been mesmerized by these pics of her first nephew on the Townsend side!!!  Still haven't actually met him in person.... unfortunately, I don't think the hospital would let me in after visiting hours.... maybe if I had Julie play Rapunzel or something?!?!?!?!

I had to remind mom to take LOTS OF PICTURES as I was feeling very far away this morning when Jyles was born at 6:47 am!

Here are some of the pics off of mom's camera.....




Nana....
....And Papa!!!

I still can't believe my parents are now grandparents!!!
But they seem to be enjoying it for some funny reason ;)

Had a laugh today....

Today I was changing the sheets on our guest bed after company had been here. I noticed this writting on the end of the bed.... it actually took me a few minutes to figure out what it was suppose to say if anything at all....

ANY GUESSES??????  Mom you should be able to get this one!


Thanks to special friends in Toon Town

Last weekend, we rushed into Saskatoon hoping to have met a new niece or nephew by the end of the weekend and he never came. Must have been shy..... which is surprising knowing his mom and dad as sooooo NOT shy!  

In the meantime, we actually had a little time to spend with some friends. Terry and Candice phoned us up wanting to take us out for a supper treat to celebrate our 5th anniversary.  What a treat it was!!!! We ate at the granary.... yummmmmm. We miss this family so much... and can't believe how fast their lil munchkins are growing.

Here are some pics from supper that eve.... Sorry t and c... meant to get a picture of you, but when I had through about it, candice you were up walking around with the kids.  Will have to get one of you two this coming weekend.


 
Big sis Allie multitasking already..... ;)

 
Tayla trying 'enjoying' a lime.  Surprisingly enough, she kept hanging onto it for a majority of the supper!

 
And a pic with big brother too!
Dean's meal.... steak with shrimp and garlic mashed potatoes... yum!


 
Best chicken I have ever had.... covered in a seafood sauce including shredded crab and lobster. 
MMM MMMM MMMM.

Thanks again T and C.... would love to have you come and visit Meadow!!!!


More pics of our first lil nephew!

Karen sent some more pics last week of lil Kade Dean.... He beat Jyles to the finish line.  Kade was suppose to be born Feb 17th... and he came early on Feb 16th.  Jyles was suppose to be Feb 6th and came today!!!

 

This is my favorite pic.... isn't he cute?!?!?!??!?!

 
Danen excited to be BIG BROTHER NOW!!!!!

 
hush lil baby don't said a word..... (tally use to sing this when danen was lil)

Wish these two were closer so we could visit them at the same time. Unfortunately Kade is another 3.5 hours from Jyles... so it isn't as easy to slip down for two days. But soon, we will hopefully be able to meet you Kade!!!!!

Jyles Alvin Rick Kennedy!!!!!

And you have FINALLY made your appearance!!!! Julie and Sheldon delivered a baby boy this morning by c section. Julie had been back and forth from the hospital since this past Friday.  Her due date was suppose to have been Feb 6th, however, they are questioning that she was given the wrong due date now because baby was completely content right were he was in mommy's tummy!  The doctors weren't too concerned. 

After trying a bunch of different natural methods to bring on labour since Friday, the midwives/doctors decided to start with slow induction earlier this week.  Then just yesterday they decided to put her on the drip which is the most extreme induction method... and suppose to bring on labour fairly quickly.  This too failed... as she laboured all night, and babies heart beat dropped 2-3 times, the obst. decided it wasn't going anywhere and they needed to do a C Section.

So early this morning sometime just before 7 am, they delivered a baby boy! 

Jyles Alvin Rick Kennedy. (Alvin was my mom's dad, who passed away in 97. Rick is Sheldon's first cousin who is in the work over on the other side of the world)
Weight: 8 lbs 13 ounces
Height: 21.25 inches long

And the cutest button nose..... this is a very tiny picture.... but it will do for now!



MY SISTER IS THE BIGGEST TROOPER I KNOW!!!!!!  So happy that both of you are healthy and safe.... and we can't wait to meet this lil nephew of ours.

Pics from our big move... sorry this is so overdue!

So finally, I am to task on these moving pictures that I had promised long ago.  I didn't take near enough as I wanted to... but I wasn't exactly sitting around either. HA!

HUGE thanks to my parents.... to Peter and Rodney.... to Brian and Janelle for all their efforts and helping us settle into ML. Mom and Dad, we wouldn't have been able to do it without you.... Peter and Rodney, your kitchen organization skills need some work. HAHAH. Just kidding. Thanks for all you did. And Brian and Janelle, thanks for the awesome supper... and for your help moving things in too Brian.

Thanks to Sheldon and Julie too for helping us pack up in Stoon!  Hard to believe we almost filled this truck up moving from a tiny condo! Yikes.... Yes, Sheldon is giving us the gears now about moving into a house... just wait until our next move... we might need 3 trucks. :)  Just kidding, I hope not! Its amazing how much stuff you collect over time. However, I have made it my goal, to declutter! I find it overwhelming with too much clutter. So when we unpacked, I have already got 6 big rubbermaid tubs full of garage sale items. Can't wait for spring.  B and J and Linda and I are going to have a multi family garage sale when their block sale is on!



 
 The last pic as residents of Saskatoon!



 
  
My energizer bunny mom!  She never stopped unpacking... glad she was around!!!

 
Fashion statement???? I think Dad figured it was a fashion faux pas.... wouldn't dare cover up that new ski jacket eh??  :)

 
Lil Ayverie..... our neighbors across the back alley!

 

My parents worked so hard... i can't believe we actually have a picture sitting down.... and none the less, it was to play MONOPOLY DEAL!!!! Yes, we are addicts!

 Will post some more pics later of the house.  We are hoping to paint soon, as soon as we get an answer from our land lord whether we are allowed to or not.

And some more furniture pieces are soon to come as well. We are getting a matching chair to our couch and loveseat. Our Piano from FQ is suppose to come too as soon as it warms up... I don't know if I will be able to wait that long! Our bedroom is going to have a complete makeover as well sometime in the near future.  But for now, you will see it as it is.
