Meghan sums it up in this picture.We got back from a visit up north yesterday.It was a busy few days. We had a great time. Meghan,now a month old was the center of what attention Sydney wasn't getting. They both did great. Although Syd I think ate too much, Because on the drive home she threw up on herself and all the blankets in the back. So I have been doing a lot of laundry today.We are all doing pretty well. It has been cold and windy here. It's 35 degrees currently. So we are trying to stay warm. I am glad we have a fireplace. I think it will be getting a lot of use this winter.I better go take care of the little ones. Check out all of our new pictures in Flickr. Just click on this photo.Oh,What a great hockey game last night. Colorado kicked Vancouver's butt 6-2.Beating them for the 4 straight time.Sorry Rhiverson's.

Meghan will be a month old sunday.It's amazing how time flies. Happy Thanksgiving all.

My Dad left this morning. It was very hard to see him go. I am a bit sad now. We had a good time. Here is a shot of Grandpa with his girls. Meghan will be 3 weeks old tomorrow. It is super foggy today.I can't believe Thanksgiving is only a week away.Sydney seems to have forgotten about using bottles. She doesn't drink as much milk as she used to.But no longer cries for a bottle.The fact Meghan gets bottles doesn't bother her.It is weird seeing all the Christmas stuff in the stores now. It is like the holidays run together.From one to the next without a pause in between.We like watching the gas prices fall. Now down to 2.25 a gallon. Cool beans.Have a good day all.

I am looking forward to our Thanksgiving trip. I have so many people to show off Meghan to.I am a proud Momma.What can I say?Plus I can't wait to see the pets. It looks like my dear Shelby won't be around much longer. So I want to make sure and see her one more time.It is almost dinner time. Bye for now.

A couple days ago Syd fell alseep on the couch. Since it rarely happens anymore I just had to get a picture.I also thought I should post a picture of her, since Meghan has been getting all the picture posting spots. Not too much going on around here. The Av's lost their game last night. Bummer. They are doing better then they had been. My Dad comes next Saturday. We can't wait. We will be going to my Mom's for a Friday Thanksgiving. Jason has to work on turkey day. We also hope to see our pals Brian and Natalie while we are up there. It has been very, very wet here. Rainy everyday.This is fall in the Pacific Northwest, so you can't really expect anything less.Meghan is now a week old. And basically just sleeps, eats and poops.I am still trying to find some sort of routine. But haven't yet.

Her is Miss Meghan with her Papa.It still amazes me how tiny she is. She swims in her clothes. I know that won't last long though. Sydney seems to like her little sister. Still rebeling a bit.Okay, a lot. And talking more everyday.My Dad will be here in 9 days. Yeah!!!!!!! Well, I am actually going to attempt doing laundry and dishes. Sorry floor, you will have to wait another day to be vacummed.I did have a baby 6 days ago, so I don't think anyone would expect much more. And if they do. Tough.I don't know when the next Av's game is. But GO AV'S!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Meghan is now 5 days old. She is doing great.I took her to a check-up last night and was told she is doing good. No problems. Right now she is 6lbs 7 oz.A lose of 7%. Right on track. My Grandma Dolly just left. I am sad about that. It was so wonderful to have her here.Such a big help and good company.My Dad will be here in 11 days though. I haven't seen him in a year and half so, we are very excited. And then it will be Turkey Day.Yeah!Meghan basically just sleeps right now. Barely keeps her eyes open to even nurse. I am very happy the breast feeding is going good, with a little supplementing of formula.And I am healing up pretty well.Actually feel good most of the time. Bye for now.
