Eating, Sleeping and Baby Planning

I cannot believe tomorrow is Friday already! This week has flown by so quickly.
I forgot what has happened since my last blog until I uploaded the pics from my camera.

John and I have been living together for a year this month, talk about time flying!
On one hand the time has gone by quickly, on the other hand it doesn't seem as if life was any other way before, it just works.

I've learnt that people might tell you that this kind of relationship doesn't exist, but it does, we are the proof.
It is not that we never disagree, but we disagree so well! I always knew life could be like this.
He has learnt that there is more than 4 seasonings, he is still in shock over my spice cabinet, he swears its 300 spices, but its probably 100 items in there.
He has also learnt to identify what they all look like fresh in the grocery store, I love fresh herbs.

Other than that it has been all about the baby shower and working on completing the registry.
Totally caught him in a moment. <3
 We obviously didn't add this, but it is cute.


My bff Kindle has tried her absolute best to keep me out of the shower planning but totally failed miserably, I think my sister didn't even attempt to keep me uninvolved because she knows me too well.

I convinced them to allow me to hand make the invitations, so much FUN!!  Kindle isn't exactly Martha Stewart but because she loves me so much she wanted to help.
 Basically I have been sleeping, eating and working on invitations.  Of course the boys are keeping me super busy inbetween!

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.

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...

Beautiful Baby Shower

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 ...
