Happy New Year!



Hello to anyone who is still reading after such a long delay!  As you might have guessed from the last post, things became rather topsy-turvy for us mid-December, when we got the sad news that Clark's grampy passed away.  This meant a surprise trip to Fredericton (after we had finally decided that we were not traveling anywhere this Christmas!), and then Christmas happened, and New Years, and so I'm only just starting to get back into the normal swing of things.

As you might imagine, there is a ridiculous amount to catch up on.  This, however, is not the night to do it.  It is only 8pm, and I'm so tired that I can barely think.  Yes, many things have changed since I last posted - One of which is that Juniper only ever sleeps for about 2 hours at a time now (maybe three at the very beginning of the evening).  I think this is a combo growth spurt/teething pain.  The upshot is that I never really sleep for more than an hour and a half at a time.  I am a bit of a walking zombie.  Here is how Juniper often sleeps these days when she IS sleeping - hands reclined behind her head.  How adorable is that?




Anyway, sorry for the teaser, but this is just a short post with the promise of more to come little by little as I play catch-up.  I have some great pictures and stories and videos planned, so it's worth the wait, I promise!  Here is Juniper with the hat/mitt combo and the rainbow overalls that I made, and had promised a picture of in my last post.  I've already made some more overalls, and I just took advantage of a big Fabricville sale, so I'm sure there will be many more creations to post as well!



And one final picture to leave you with, just for the fun of it - here is one of our mom and babes yoga classes that I go to at the Yoga Loft on Fridays.  This is after the yoga - we're just starting the post-yoga baby massage part. This is a particularly great picture because it has all the moms I've been hanging around in it.  Across from me (Juniper and I are in the back left corner) are Kerry and her son Patrick (ten days younger than Juniper), and beside me are Tawnya and her daughter Calla, who is a couple of weeks older than Juniper. Closest to the camera is Toni and her daughter Isabella, who is a week older than Juniper. Beside Toni is Sairah and her daughter Jolene.  Jolene is a good few months younger than the rest of these babes, but we realised that we had met long before either of us were pregnant, at a party our mutual friend Crispin threw.  Neat!  More soon!

Juniper keeps getting cuter and cuter.
