Family Update





Zoë is getting better at walking each day, just a bit wobbly still. She has a fifth tooth just starting to poke out on the bottom. She's been sleeping alot better lately, only waking up once usually during the night. The other night she didn't wake up once which was amazing :)

Lee's busy working, getting lots of installs and has been upselling tonnes as well. I get to see him usually in the mornings which is nice. We have started to go to the pools in the mornings so we can swim laps and workout a bit in the pool.

I have been feeling pretty good this pregnancy, haven't been sick much at all. My baby is the size of a jumbo shrimp right now.

My Velociraptor



Zoë just started getting up on her feet this morning without holding onto anything. She has sure mastered that quick. I had to hide the video camera while videoing her or she wouldn't do it, so this is the best I could get.

The pool is open!


The day at the zoo


Zoë all ready for the day at the zoo.


Silly brown bear


We went in this area with the kangaroos where there were no barriers between us and them.


Zoë loves to be on her daddy's shoulders, always makes her happy.


My favourite part of the zoo was the polar bear exhibit.


You can go underwater in a tube at the polar bear exhibit. One of the polar bears walked overhead while I was underneath. There were seals as well in the exhibit.

Thirsty boys. The water fountains are always running.

Zoë and second cousin Landon



You can't really see them well but it's a really cute video of Zoë and Landon having a tonne of fun playing together. Landon follows Zoë wherever she goes so she started to play a game where she would come close to him and then quickly go away and sit down and they'd both laugh like crazy and she would keep doing the same thing over and over again.

Zoë's new thing


Zoë is good at sharing but only when they give it right back to her.

Zoë just started doing this a couple of days ago where she will stick her tongue out at you. No clue where she learned that from.



Impossible to get a picture of the three of them looking at the camera. Landon and Zoë would look at the camera but Aaron wouldn't, and vice versa.
