The Big Farewell

By
As you all know we have moved to Dubai! And since we have been so busy with the move... and a total of 30hrs travel time, I am only now having time to get caught up on the blog.

Before we left we on course tried to see all our friends and family (who I miss incredibly by the way).

Here Amalia is with her Grandparents.  Daddy came from Florida, we visited Johns parents, and Mummy, well, the last 5 weeks she practically moved in, and when possible worked from home... our home.  So did my sister Bianca.
 Bye friends *waaahhh*
 Kids say bye
Everything was surreal, packing, saying good bye, didn't feel real, it still doesn't.

The first hardest goodbye was Daddy, and the second was Mummy and Binx.  Every time I thought of them when we were on the plane I cried.  The boys would just come over and hug me.  

I'm doing well now because skype and facetime makes it seem like they are in my living room everyday.

The last night Mummy and Binky stayed the night.  
Mummy and Binx, this will be hard without you.  I miss you so much already.  <3  Hope you don't mind me posting our "no makeup" pic, but I'm sure you knew paparazzi me would!

Star Wars Birthday Party

By
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

By
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...
