It is always so exciting finding out what the baby is.  2 weeks ago we went to a specialist for a detailed ultra sound (I had high pregnancy hormone so the doctor said it wouldn't hurt).  What pregnant woman turns down an ultra sound??
So we asked the boys if they wanted to come and they of course said, sure! They were mesmerized watching her move all around, so were we, a sweet day.  We had a few more weeks before out actual ultra sound that determines the sex, but the ultra sound tech told us on that day!! A great surprise.  The boys originally wanted a brother (they don't like girls apparently) but were immediately in awe at the news.

We were trying to wait till the official ultrasound, but I could not wait any longer even though it's just around the corner.  Once I got the pics from the shoot I couldn't wait any longer.




The boys had fun putting together this little comic, anything for their little sister. =)




Got to work with a fabulous photographer, he really understood my vision and brought it to life.  We shot together almost 2 years ago, he is obviously very versatile, here's a pic from the original shoot with him.

Star Wars Birthday Party

It's that time of year for the boys double birthday party!! Since I... I mean they are so into star wars that was the obvious choice of a party theme. It was so cute at the end of the party after the boys opened all their gifts and John says, "Well, what did Mummy and I get you?"  They both shrugged.  I said, "We got you this beautiful party, and that is your gift." They both hugged us and said thank you without even complaining that we didn't buy them anything, such gracious boys! Then John brought out their bikes and they went crazy!! It was the cutest thing. Happy Birthday to our wonderful boys, Happy 7th and 9th Birthday Ethan and Kaiden!

And the Fun Begins

On Sunday, March 11th, we welcomed our newest family member.  Amalia Rachael Emily Benham. It all began Saturday morning.  I had signs of labor but we had the Pinewood Derby so I hoped she would wait.  And of course, she did. Contractions started coming in very slowly and Mummy and Binx came over.  We hung out, and hung out, and hung out and the contractions weren't getting stronger but slowly moving closer together.  We all finally took naps then we started hanging out again.  Finally at 12am we decided to go to the hospital. 3 cm dilated and I was admitted. Kindle, my bff of course came to the hospital as well.  All our biggest supporters were there. Waiting for Baby  Getting some well needed rest. Last moments before birth  My contractions never got  intense before the epidural kicked in, thank goodness.  Somehow my left side didn't kick in so I could feel it all on that side, but because I have back labor and I co...

Mr. and Mrs. John Benham!!!

This is the moment we have both been waiting for for years! It was perfection. Nothing short of magical.
