Meet The Crew

By
I have been hanging our with these wonderful people that live by me.
We are all in different buildings but we meet for dinner on the weekends.
We also hang out during the week sometimes.

Denise, she is Amalia's replacement Grandma since Mummy is so far away.
She misses her Grandson so it works for them both.  She is extremely sweet and from New York.

Then there is Donna, Tiffany's Mom, from England.  And her husband Stewart who is A LOT like my Daddy.  I did some investigation and they are both Tauruses and in the Chinese Zodiac they are oxes! Go figure!!


 The cool part is we meet at restaurants in our back yard and the kids get along so well and run around playing on the beach and at the playground with lots of other kids while we get to hang out without ever really leaving home.

Right now there is a serious competition between Denise and Donna for Amalias love.  This came about because Amalia has been so attached to me and they were determined to get to hold her.   Looks like Donna is in the lead!
The difference between friends back home and friends here is huge.
And it's simple and makes sense.
None of us have family here, we ARE each others family.
I am so happy I found them.

Mr. and Mrs. John Benham!!!

This is the moment we have both been waiting for for years! It was perfection. Nothing short of magical. We had quite a bit of time after getting ready, there were so many emotions, so happy I laughed, so happy I cried. I love these photos and am so happy that every moment was captured.  Can't wait to see the professional ones!                                 Waiting for the go ahead                                         It's time!!                              Everyone ready to come down                                                               Mummy 1st     With this ring...   You may kiss your bride! Ethan is a true romantic.  Whenever we watch movies with happy couples he always says that they are me and John.  For years he has been talking about us getting married. After the ceremony when we came in he was crying.   He said he tried to hold it in as long as possible...

Beautiful Baby Shower

By
This past weekend was our baby shower!!  We decided to do it a bit early because I am one of those over-organized, over-prepared types.  It was hosted by my best friend Kindle and my sister Bianca. I told Kindle I wanted a slight winter wonderland pink theme since it is so close to Christmas and this is what I walked in to! It was absolutely beautiful, and we were joined by all our best family and friends, we appreciate everyone that made this such a special day for us.  This game was to guess how big I was and believe it or not the winner was Ethan!! He definitely knows his Mummy!  The chocolate diaper game. (It was Johns first shower, he must've thought we were all crazy).  Getting ready for presents!! (The boys got to open them all).  Kindle surprised the boys with a gift each. It was a shirt with their picture saying "I'm the biggest Brother" and "I'm the big Brother" for the hospital. Most thoughtful thing ever!!! I wish I could relive
