Blah!

We had a fun Christmas at Glenns parents house, we stayed a couple days and ate way too much. We didn't buy a whole lot of presents as we are saving up for the big move but Euan managed to come home with a load anyway! Euan loved all the attention and came home a bit spoiled! Before Christmas he could usually entertain himself on the floor for a bit, after Christmas he wanted to be held allllllll the time! I could get nothing done! Luckily he's  pretty much back to normal! 

We had some friends stay with us for a few days over New Years which was fun! They have a little boy who is 3 months younger than Euan, it was so strange seeing such a tiny baby! And Euans not even much older! After they left I came down with a nasty flu....it was horrible! Poor Euan was so bored of hanging out in bed with me, I tried to entertain him but lying in bed dying while shaking a toy above his head while trying to sleep wasn't very entertaining apparently...we made due with making blanket forts instead.

Euan had his 3rd set of shots, he is done until he's a year old now(yay) He had two in one leg and one in the other. He was very brave and even smiled at the nurse after. Right before he got them he puked all over my lap...so it looked like I had wet myself. Luckily there were witnesses so no explanation was needed. Still felt a bit funny walking home afterwards. 

We've started feeding the little monkey some solids. He looooooves it! Gobbles it right down and looks for more. What a little piggy! He weighed in at 15lbs 13oz yesterday, he is still dead on the 50th percentile. 

Wow this post isn't very exciting...I think next time I will make up some elaborate story to tell...

I have a ton of pictures to put up but need to upload them onto the computer so one will have to do for now...he was rudely awoken by mom putting the camera in his face, he's not impressed.

Christmas Cuteness!

We were bored this afternoon and Euan had his hot Christmas PJ's on, so we had a little photo shoot. He was a little grumpy because he had his shots done yesterday, but always the professional he didn't let it stop him from looking great!

 Pensive 

 Cheerful

 Excited!

 Hopeful

Just plain cute!!

Bundled up!

Here is the little man all bundled up for a trip to Bath. He slept pretty much the entire time which was fine by me! It was so so so busy you could barely walk through the crowds of people. Christmas is probably the worst time to shop in Bath but we wanted to check out the Christmas market, the only problem is we could barely get to the stalls! We eventually gave up and got cookies from the BEST cookie shop in the world! Bens Cookies! Sooooooooooo good!!! I got my favourite, triple chocolate, which was still warm and melty. If you ever go to Bath, check it out!!(

Foxes and Dogs and Babies...Oh my!

So the excitement for the day was a sneaky fox in my garden, he was very handsome but had a bad back leg...poor guy...he still managed to leap our garden wall though so I suppose it wasn't too bad.

As for the dog....anyone want to give mine a haircut? He has grown very shaggy and I can't be bothered to cut it! I suppose its keeping him warm, and it makes him look like a cuddly teddy bear :)

And finally the baby! He is growing up too fast! Still very cute, but I am biased :) He had his shots this week and was definitely not impressed! She did the right leg and he let out a howl, as soon as it was out he was fine, then the nasty nurse went and stabbed his poor left leg. He howled again but was fine as soon it was out again. He was a bit grumpy that evening but other than that he's been fine. I wasn't a big fan of having to hold his leg while she did it though... I HATE NEEDLES! Glenn is going to have to take him next time, I thought I was going to pass out and she wasn't even stabbing me! Who is the baby you ask...? And now a couple pictures of the little guy...

Lucky you.....

Wow, I think this has to be a record! Two posts in under three months! Whoever reads this blog is seriously lucky! Actually I don't really have much to say, just a couple pictures of the little man for all the folks back home who can't partake of his greatness in person. He hasn't made any amazing baby breakthroughs since his last update. He is steadily gaining poundage, chubby little guy. He rolled from front to back once, purely by accident and hasn't done it since. He peed on the carpet twice during bum airing time, seriously got some great distance as well, luckily I'm a fast mover and got out of the way in time. And other than that not much else is new....check out this hotty though, he is just asking to be smooshed.

 Oh so serious....

 Oh so happy!......

Oh so excited!!!!!!!!

Update

So I guess this isn't really an update since this is the first time I've mentioned our new little man on here, it's more of an announcement with updated-ness. So Euan Glenn Hole arrived on the 8th of September 2010 (8/9/10) pretty cool birthday if you ask me, I totally planned it that way ;) I won't go into the gritty labour details...no one wants to hear that! He was 8lb 7oz of chubby baby with a sprinkling of dark hair (hehe makes him sound like a donut) the first few weeks were...interesting. He didn't really sleep at night, his idea of a good time was staying up from 11pm til 6am(screaming) lets just say are hearts weren't filled with too much love and joy at this point :) My Mama came to visit for a week and helped out with his crazy antics and then the night Glenn was heading back to work Euan decided sleeping at night is cool. Hallelujah! (lucky Glenn) Since that miraculous night he now wakes up only once or twice to eat a snack then he's straight back to sleep. I'm sure someday soon he will decide night time is a fun time to be up but until then we are enjoying our nearly full nights sleep! 
He is now 8 weeks old, 12 lbs of chunk and growing out of his clothes faster than I can buy them! We are looking forward to when we move to Canada and he can commandeer some clothes from his cousin! He is a pretty happy baby most of the time, his only grumpy spells are when he eats to fast and gets a bad tummy. He loves to smile and give his version of a giggle. He likes to watch the dog and play on his play mat. He's not to keen on tummy time but we're getting there. He is a little stud muffin and we love him! 
So other than taking care of Euanator and getting ready to move back to Canada!!!!!(by April hopefully!!!!) Not much else is new! 
So without further ado.....let the pictures commence! Just a few to wet your appetites!

Strawberries! Mmmmm

So this is from a month or two ago, but I am not the greatest at updating this thing so this is what you get! Glenn and I went picking strawberries a couple times and they were soooo good! We were very addicted to these juicy little devils! Every time we picked a basket we would decide to do something productive with them, like make some jam, but it just never happened...we would just eat them too quickly! I blamed being pregnant....Glenn had no such excuse.
