Fairy Garden

The weather has been so nice and Amalia is loving our walks.
The neighbours love our walks too because she runs around waving at everyone she sees and every car that goes by.
She likes going to other peoples garden as well, but who wouldn't like a fairy in their garden?
Definitely not me!
This is also the first time I got her to keep her shoes on, yay!
It's definitely time to start wearing shoes more often. 
Also, this may be tmi, but speaking of firsts, she went poopie in the potty!
I have gotter her to pee pee several times but today this was a first.  
I am excited because it is so much easier to flush than to clean up a diaper.

She is growing so big and this warm weather is so familiar to her.
I think it was tough for her to be inside most of this time not we get to go out everyday and she gets to do what she is more familiar with.

John and the boys have been enjoying the weather as well, they spend a lot of time outside playing ball.

Nothing like perfect weather!  Dubai is almost 100 degrees already! 
Looks like it was great timing! We missed most of winter here and will miss 120 degree summer there!

I am posting the head back pic for her Daddy, he is obsessed with her curly hair!

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 t...

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 ...
